It’s the perfect time to play them. And our underlying stats are much better than our results. Think we’ve got every chance myself

i totally get that every time we play at anfield but its just the fact we have a little form and harrison has injected some quality in there and experience and dcl is back -
they don't like playing early doors - i honestly think we are getting something here coyb

I don't for one minute think there's the same gulf between us as there has been in recent years. Usually I want the game over and just written off. Tomorrow I think we can go toe to toe with them and give them a game. We have the size, height, speed and hopefully goal scoring ability now to not just go there and roll over. For once I can't call tomorrow but if we turn up i'd expect a result of some kind. Nowhere near as one sided as some may think this.

There’s been a few times we’ve picked up a draw there, which for a bottom half team is actually pretty ok. Everyone focuses on our low number of wins and some embarrassing scorelines but the reality is that there’s some bottom half teams who are losing every single fixture home and away most seasons to them (I think Palace lost every fixture in between Crystanbul and last season) . Even the top 6 all have terrible records there especially under Klopp.
That 17/18 Everton team under Allardyce was one of the worst I’ve ever seen and we didn’t lose that against a Liverpool side far better than this one. Even the game we lost to that freak Origi goal Andre Gomes was one of the best players on the pitch and we had three gilt edged changes to go ahead in the first half.
They’re not this invincible team people make them out to be. I’d fancy our chances much more at Anfield now than I would at the Etihad or Emirates. That doesn’t mean we’ll win but I’ll be annoyed if we just roll fort and accept a beating.
heard he hurt his shoulder playing for Scotland (Patto?) and cannot play in case he is needed to help a limping VVD off the pitch if Pickford tackles him again!
