Yeah, Im not taking any chances against Brentford. Play the best available players.

Yep, From what I've seen from Brentford they are no walkover team. They are going to be this seasons version Leeds so it will be a tough one, they like to press and counter with good players. Ivan Toney is one to watch out for, I wish we could have signed him.
 
Keita will never get a more prominent role because he can't play more than 3 games without taking a month off. We really shouldn't be offering him any sort of extension unless it's on significantly worse terms than what he's got now.

Sometimes you have to hold your hands up and admit failure. We gonna have to think about replacing him sooner rather than later. I know the winter transfer window usually means paying a little bit more but for the right player, we should look to invest in a Keita replacement. People talking about Bellingham but I think that is a pipe dream. FSG isn't going to invest crazy money unless we sell a few. Its more likely that Edwards will have to pull another rabbit out of the hat and find us a hidden cheap gem.
 
Our league results have mimicked Chelsea each week so far this season, so we should know after the early kick off match how things will go today.
 
For the gamblers on here this looks interssting - if I was a gambler I'd be on this !!

Brentford are being rated too highly in terms of their ability to restrict Liverpool getting shots away though. This has led to Sky Bet offering very generous Liverpool shot lines with 18 or more being allowed to be punted at 7/2. A fantastic price.
In their last 14 Premier League matches, Liverpool - full of verve and energy - have averaged 21.36 shots per 90 minutes in that period. This season, they are working at a 25 shots per 90 minutes ratio with 125 being posted in their five games. They are just the second side since 2003/04 to have 100+ shots in their opening five games of a season - with Chelsea having 138 in 2009/10.

To give you a flavour of the value being offered here, Liverpool have had 16 or more shots in 13 of their last 14 Premier League encounters. Let's not forget, Brentford are a newly promoted team and - naturally - there's going to be plenty of fear factor on show, taking on one of the best teams in Europe.
Yes, they have restricted teams like Brighton, Aston Villa and Wolves to minimal efforts on goal but this is Liverpool we're talking about. Jurgen Klopp's men are a different level and a relentless beast in terms of suffocating teams when going forward. I'd be very surprised if they don't clear the 16 or more shots line and punters should also respect the 21+ (11/2 with Sky Bet) and 25+ (22/1 with Sky Bet). That 22/1 line would have won in three of Liverpool's five Premier League fixtures this season.

Betfair are offering Mo to have at least 1 shot on target in each half @ 5/2. That’s buying money.
 
Liverpool: Alisson, Alexander-Arnold, Matip, Van Dijk, Robertson, Fabinho, Henderson, Jones, Mane, Salah, Jota.
Subs: Kelleher, Konate, Milner, Firmino, Gomez, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Minamino, Tsimikas, Origi.
 
I'm going to be livid, if we make Jansson look like world class defender today. Cause he's fucking shite.
 
Good bench as well today.

Hopefully we'll silence the crowd early just by keeping the ball and then squeeze the life outta them.
 
Line up is lacking a bit of creativity what with the injuries, so expecting to see a lot from Trent. On the flip side, this Brentford team are no mugs, so good to see us putting out a hard working team to battle them.
