Watford v Liverpool - Sat 16th October, 12.30pm kick off. Live on BT Sport

[Cobs]

So Alisson, Fabihno, Thiago, Trent, Jota, Divock all doubtful for this? As well as Elliot out, obvs.

so worst case...

 

Kelleher

Milner Matip VVD Robbo

Hendo Keita Jones

Salah Firmino Mane

 

 

that's still good enough to smash these pricks, won't have much on the bench though

[Cunny]

Trent is back in training.

Keita has just played 3 games in 6 days.

Can see Milner in midfield.

Is Thiago back for this?

he can't stay fit to play 3 games in a month for us

[Cunny]

Guinea played 3 in 6 days. He started 2 of them, was a sub in one and was subbed off in one of the games he started.

he's fine to play Saturday then - should be quite match sharp, in fact.

Unless he got subbed off/a sub cos he was playing s***

[Cunny]

he played full 90 in their last game

[Jarg Armani]

As long as he didn't kick any grass he should be right up for this then

New manager bounce can do one, we need to slap this lot around after our last visit.

Trent is fit and Origi is in the training pics. 
 

Trent to start and Milner over Keita in midfield, unless Chamberlain has impressed in training. 

[Gethin]

Given that this one's followed by Atleti & the Mancs away, I think we'll see quite a few players that didn't go on international duty - or didn't play much - start

Kelleher

TAA Gomez Matip Tsimi

Hendo Milner Jones

Mane Bobby Mo (could even see Minamino starting this one instead of Mane or Mo)

 

Then you have Ali, Fab, VVD, Thiago, Robbo & Keita to come back for the next two.

Any word on how bad Jota's knock was?

[Nebraska Red]

Read that Fab and Allison are flying directly to Spain to prepare for the Atleti game.

I am still in shock at the Keita revelation. 3 games on the bounce.

Goodbye Yellow Brick Road.

Ranieri is genuinely clueless. If it wasn't for his suspicious and fortunate one season wonder with Leicester, and the fact he seems like a nice guy, he would be viewed more as the chancer he is.

Managed about 25 clubs, a lot of whom are very big names, and barely won anything.

Kind of makes sense - they're not going to get a meaningful training session in Liverpool (Sunday will be a light post game session, Monday will be a travel day with an evening training session in Spain I guess) and it'll cut some travelling out for them.

Maybe they just went from relegation certs to title winners in the space of 9 months because they tried really hard.

So what are you driving at? 

Referee corruption? 

Other teams throwing games? 

Leicester players taking PED's? 

[Red2Core]

Just f***ing win this.

Kelleher started for Ireland last night v Qatar, but may as well have been sitting in the stands he had so little to do
