Pre Match - Brentford (H) - Sun 14:00

[Markeh]

Ah for fuck sake, not on sky again

Elliott. He holds the ball well and is creative.

Gakpo can come off the bench for Jota, Nunez or Elliott when it inevitably goes wrong. This team leaves us with no backup cf for when nunez woke up on the chaos side of the bed

Playing Gakpo deeper vs Ellioot deeper and on the his 'wrong' side. Don't think this is Klopp being a 'meff'

Isn't it? Shit I saw R5 live were were doing us and so assumed it was Sky!

I don't want gakpo in the midfield at all as he's not a mid. False 9 I can tolerate but don't like. Lw is fine.

At least Elliott is a mid

 

[dantes]

It matters not either way, unless you have some preference as to the specific way you would like to be fucked by brentford.

I don't think either is a great option but with five first teamers out the choice is Nyoni, Elliott or Gakpo. If you rule out the 18 yo then it's a toss up on the other two. From my armchair I'd go with Gakpo, you with Elliott but we both know neither are going to be great in the position.

Regards Elliott as a Mid - he seems more suited in the forward line to my eyes, but again I'm just an armchair fan

So they are - time for the river-lets then

showing West Ham v forest for some reason

The reason is that it's an afternoon kick off on a weekend, there could be children watching.

you’re saying we’re going to batter Brentford?

 

[Markeh]

Gravy is injured too?

 

[tomasjj]

brentford will sit deep
the height and shooting of gakpo might be handy

 

[mom]

Here’s your chance Endo

[Shadey]

Streams?

 

[Modo]

Oh shit Matip is playing. Where's Konate?

 

[SummerOnions]

This is the highest line I've seen us play in ages

 

[dee]

Streams?

1 stream

 

[Shadey]

Just get the 3 points and hopefully get players back after the international break.

You’ll never guess

The place to be at the Mo is the treatment room.

 

[dee]

Fuck me - we should have conceded there

 

[Markeh]

We’re so lucky they were absolutely clueless there

 

[dee]

Nunez - got them worried already

 

[Markeh]

I remember my first time trying to head the ball too Wissa

 

[dee]

Great ball from Trent, Gakpo just not quite on it

 

[Shadey]

We’re so lucky they were absolutely clueless there

It was comical.

 

[Modo]

I like the energy I'm seeing from the players

 

[Markeh]

I like the energy I'm seeing from the players

you’ve cursed it now

 

[dee]

Brentford fucking up playing out from back. Good pressing

 

[dee]

VVD really does seem to be back. Lovely to see
