I wish Poch would learn his lesson about a right back playing left back. We have 2 on the bench and Vertongen for christ sake, it's asking for trouble.


Maybe Dier is on the bench because he is the 4th best CB at the club, and bang average in midfield?????

Finally the squad is near fully fit, If only Dembele and Wanyama from last season were back, the squad would look immense.

Will be happy with a point after seeing the line-up. Must be major concerns over Rose and Davies. Don't know about Dele and Winks marshaling Coutinho's runs from midfield either.

Major concerns? Rose has been out for 10 months and wont be match fit for 90 minutes yet and Davies clearly hasn't 100% recovered from illness, which will be why he wouldn't be able to do 90 minutes either.

Its kind of funny really. Its well known that liverpools lack of dm causes them massive problems and they concede alot of chances and goals due to that yet we go and do the same.

Aurier at lb to counter salah pace. Hopefully we play on counter but looks as though poch is going gung ho

To be fair, re. Dier he is terrible against high pressing as he has the turning circle of the Titanic but we are light in midfield, he should still be playing.

My guess is it’s the same formation as against Real Madrid - Trips into LWB, Dele for Sissoko and Son for Llorente.

Other than that, it’s the same side so can play the same way which, just a few days ago, we were all wanking ourselves silly over

Hope Dier is purely tactical and we're not going through the walker regmarole again as we don't have the depth in cm to start pissing people off

We don't know what's happening but would be truly disastrous man management from Poch if so.

What a strange lineup? What on earth? Two RB's? No Dier? (Just makes me even more concerned that he wasn't aware of what was said that has come out in the press.)
