Liverpool vs Everton - FA Cup Sunday 5th Jan - 16.01 (apparently)

[Sir Tokyo Sexwale]

changes

 

batter these twerps

[Gethin]

I wouldn't be that surprised to see Jones and one of the other young subs tonight start

[Sir Tokyo Sexwale]

Adrian I think starts

 

Next game after this is Spurs on the 11th, so a moderate rest, then ManU on the 19th. And then for some reason a Thursday (23) vs Wolves

[Bogman]

Snot them, but with a weakened team.

[McBain]

Snot them, but with a weakened team.

We're their bogey team

[psl]

Origi, Lallana, Minamino. Some others.

 

Keita hopefully. Maybe Shaqiri?

[Chewie]

We've a week after this to spurs and little rotational options

 

Only change to the back 4 would be milner at LB..which in turn takes him out of midfield, leaving Hendo, Gini, lallana, Jones with the front 3 plus origi and Minamino for upfront

 

Not a lot he can do...

[Cheesecake]

Any of the injured players likely to be fit for this, bench even?

[Nathan Explosion]

apparently

[Gethin]

Any of the injured players likely to be fit for this, bench even?

No. And he’s ruled Keita out

[Swipe]

Klopp’s comments tonight suggest a much changed team.

What did he say?

 

It always seemed likely. He has always rested players in the FA Cup.

We've got almost no cover other than kids for defence and midfield now. Two senior outfield subs in Lallana and Origi, plus Minamino. Wouldn't be surprised if we're not far off the Villa team. Edited January 2, 2020 by LicK

[Maldini]

Reckon he'll have to give one or both of the full backs a rest and same with Hendo and Gini, they've played a hell of a lot of football and they'll both play against Spurs and Utd. Mane is due a rest too.

 

Alisson

 

Hoever/Williams

Gomez

Phillips

Robertson

 

Lallana

Milner

Minamino

 

Salah

Firmino

Origi

We’re half way through a season and down to the minimum of senior players. If any of them have even a doubt or minor complaint then I’d be for resting them.

 

They’ve played something like 13 games in 44 days since end of November.

 

It’s shame we didn’t get a non league team at home to make this selection easier.

[Maldini]

What did he say?

 

It always seemed likely. He has always rested players in the FA Cup.

"We will have fresh legs"

[Cam]

Adrian I think starts

Definitely.

Williams Phillips vdB Milner

Jones Lallana Minamino

[Billy Talbot]

Could have done with the ev not beating Burnley and Newcastle and being enough points worse off to see the FA cup as the distraction it is being forced into resting as many as we will.

 

I think they will make changes, but there’s will be the senior side and will be looking give us a bloody nose.

[Ethan]

13/5 for an Ev win

[stressederic]

Definitely.

Firmino

Origi

This won't be far off I suspect, but I'd start Elliot for Bobby. Origi left, Mo central, Harv right. Suspect Jones may start instead, with Minamino in a front three.

[Cheesecake]

I wouldn't be risking Gomez seeing as the others who can fill in there are still injured - Matip, Lovrem, Fabinho. We're almost at bare bones for midfield too. Those lads need to come back quick and be ready.

 

Adrian

Williams

Phillips

?

Larouci (is he able to play?)

Lallana

Jones

?

Origi

Elliott

Minamino

Given the next few weeks fixture list looks lighter, he could go half strong with changes at half time.

Don’t want players to lose rhythm - counterbalance to fatigue, not playing enough, or too sporadic. Got break in feb too and want to tie up title in March if we can and would be good to be in fa cup and European cup still.

[cocknose]

No way vvd doesent start.

Reckon we will only see 2/3 changes max

I can't see that at all
