Anyone but Keita
Madness are on this year
Yup. You'll be expected to make an appearance as well
This game is made for him
I'd actually play VD and the kid at CB.
Fabs at DM, Wijnaldum and Milner next to him.
The rest are pretty obvious.
Loved Klopps presser. His answers are fuckin superb.
What a breath of fresh air it is to have such a great guy fielding questions.

I reckon this guarantees that Keita scores the winner.
The lad needs to get confidence.
If that is obtainable through starting right now, I am not sure.
Fuck sake! Klopp and VVD manager and player of the month for December.
Keita needs to be involved at this point of the season to have any hope of him being an integral part of the team at the business end of the season.
With Fabinho almost certainly at CB I'd be very surprised if he wasn't picked this weekend.
Everyone can see the lad has the talent, he's just lacking confidence, & he'll only get that by playing.
Now obv in an ideal world you'd say that'd be in cup games, but with shitty draws & injuries we've seen that isn't an option, & it's impossible to judge players on how they play with a B side compared to how they do in the A side (not surprising that Shaq suddenly started playing well when Salah & Firmino come on against wolves, cos they tie up defenders & it creates space).
We haven't got as deep a squad as citeh have so we need as many players involved & able to put a shift in as possible, for Keita that means getting him bedded in again after his spell out of the side as quickly as possible.
Why dont we change formation.....
Go 3 at the back.....
Fab... VVD..... Robbo
Then have TAA and Milner as wing backs.... I think Robbo and Fab could hold their own in a 3.
Ie:
--------------Alisson------------
---Fab------VVD-----Robbo--
TAA-----------------------Milner
--------------Hendo-------------
Salah------Shaq---------Mane
-------------Bobby---------------
Boooom

What did Klopp say?
I think we need fabs in midfield more than in defence. The midfield is an area of the park we can get dominated in if fabs isn't there to strengthen it up. Based on injuries it's likely keita will play as hendo is out, especially of fab is in defence. I'd like him to have protection
How spurs and Chelsea have touched lucky with injuries
Cue spurs being irate that they've lost such powerhouses as Erik dier, dembele....erm
I'd rather stick with a back four as more personell will be in their usual positions.
TAA - Matip/ressie - VVD - Robbo
Aren’t they trying to shift Dembélé?
They’re a strange bunch.
Truth hurts. They know our guy is right, they've also picked up the point he's hinting at (namely that even with a more favourable injury situation they're still behind us) and they don't like it one tiny little bit. Oh dear how sad never mind.
Kane, Eriksen, Alli have all spent time out. And Son was at the Asian games or something wasn't he? Plus Lloris has been injured/drink driving. They've had spells without top players.
Son hasn’t gone yet. I get your point though.
Thing is, all the players they've had injured are massive cunts, so fuck them
Serious though, all there players seemed to form an orderly queue to get injured, so they never really felt the pinch. Whereas we lost a right back, 3 centre backs and 2 midfielders in a 3 week period.
Thrilled that there's a league match to watch tomorrow. We're going to drop points, of course, but at least we're playing.
Yeah, I've missed league football. The doom is already seeping out at an alarming rate
And by doom, I mean faeces due to nerves
Ridiculous. No other manager was as vocal in stressing how Spurs suffered the most due to World Cup fatigue. Klopp defended Poch on several occasions about their early dodgy form. They're a paranoid lot.
It's like after the Wolves game, he said, as a minor remark, that the windy conditions hadn't been helpful, but that it had been a problem for both teams and Wolves deserved their win. That got turned into 'Klopp blames loss on the wind' and that escapee from the DJ's booth in Mr Byrite, Adrian Durham, screamed about him for about an hour in that toxic phone-in on TalkSport.
