Where’s my boy Maupay? I thought he was supposed to score a hat-trick?

Thank goodness he's not playing. And he'd better not come off the subs bench either or we're doomed.

 

[tombrown]

All 3 will play DM

 

[darkstarexodus]

The reason Phillips is on the bench had better be because he's going to hurtle himself into and through Dyche's midsection before kickoff, fully disintegrating the blueshite's new manager.

 

[binomial]

[mom]

Darwin looking suitably crazy for this in the warm up.

this kinda game is made for him. Just please no red card, Darwin.

 

[darkstarexodus]

Watching a derby highlights pack and wishing we had loaned back Divock for this match.

 

[Shadey]

Right let’s start our season Zzz Zzz and fuck the blue shite over.

Klopp keeps faith with 4-3-3 despite it being proven to be a mistake. The only way I can see us getting something out of this game is if Fabs actually remembers he is a Footballer and not a seal

 

[rurikbird]

Gakpo starts in the middle, Nunez on the left.

Looks like Fab at DM, Bajcetic at LCM. This might be a 4-4-2, actually.

 

[mom]

Oh my god Matip

 

[Farkmaster]

"Keep it tight" was the prevailing wisdom on SCM.

Meanwhile, we're forced to play Matip and Gomez in the worst form of their lives.

 

[Raz]

Trent playing CF again tonight!

 

[SummerOnions]

Nuñez on the left is so weird..why did we sign a striker and play him on the left and a winger and put him up front

 

[rurikbird]

No, looks like a 4-3-3, but with Bajcetic playing very deep to almost form a double-pivot and Henderson roaming as expected.

Gakpo doing some useful work as a false 9 to keep our attacks going and create space for Salah and Nunez.

 

[SummerOnions]

Can Gakpo get something on target challenge

 

[LeTallecWiz]

better - COME ON YOU REDS!!!!

 

[rurikbird]

Oh, so close Gakpo

 

[SummerOnions]

Honestly if our front players could strike a football properly we'd be in the top 4 still

 

[rurikbird]

Fabinho clumsy, good intervention by Henderson

 

[mom]

Trent has been poor today

 

[Fabio]

Better today than other days so far

 

[rurikbird]

This is good, just need to make sure this period of pressure results in a goal for us.

 

[Fabio]

This is good, just need to make sure this period of pressure results in a goal for us.

We're still not actively testing Pickford, and that's the thing that's annoyed me for months

 

[rurikbird]

Tarkowski is everywhere so far - a one-man defensive wall for Everton.

 

[tomasjj]

everton get a corner, their support erupts

 

[SummerOnions]

This is good, just need to make sure this period of pressure results in a goal for us.

We've heard this many times this season sadly, usually before they score from the second ball from the corner

 

[Markeh]

everton get a corner, their support erupts

one for the season DVD

 

[Squiggles]

We've found the inhalers. Looking much livelier, just lacking some quality in attack.

Fabinho still moves like glue.

 

[Shadey]

Poor game for Nunez

 

[Squiggles]

We've heard this many times this season sadly, usually before they score from the second ball from the corner

Tbf, we're usually one or two down by now.
