Lets not worry about the whole season with COVID19 lurking around. 

Lets worry about who will play CB against Atalanta. Phillips is not available for UCL and we need to either let Rhys Williams start or find the next Fabinho. Well, at least Phillips get to rest. He hasnt play since the beginning of the season and had to play the full match against the Hammers.

Maybe Milner is undergoing CM to CB conversion training right now. I guess Milner will start in CM but who will partner Gomez? Maybe Rhys Williams will start after all.

Will Klopp rest the front three and unleash the JMS attack? Will we see Origi as point man in a 4-2-3-1?

 

good pt. Nat Phillips is not part of the registered UCL squad so I think it is likely Klopp will play Rhys.  

Altanta is a reckless attacking football team and it will smell blood against Pool's makeshfit defence.  The question is whether Pool can out source them away from home.  

I feel that the recent frequent chopping and changes to the front 3 has impeded them to build up of real momentum and fluency. may not be totally a bad thing provided the squad players contribute more of the goal scoring load, like what Jota is doing.

Quick Thiago ask your friend David Alaba to join Pool.

He is just like James Milner and can play in central defence and in midfield.

He can also play left back just like Milner and he likes it.

:grin:

Think Klopp bought Thiago to upgrade to Mentality Monster Mk. II.

Fixture pile-up probably accelerated Klopp's system upgrade and he is taking more risk in rotating his team. I hvnt seen a manager sub all three strikers in one go when the game is still pretty open. Its always good to have the reserves playing, the first eleven doesnt need to gain experience.

Atalanta is a bit like us under Brendan Rodgers.. stopping their "Coutinho" equivalent might be key to negating their attacks. I guess TAA and Robbo will be very busy.

Naby and matip back to full training. Not sure will be selected for coming match. But more options now.

Atlantic striker #91 zapata is a very dangerous strike threat to us. Physical and direct. Someone had to track this guy

think Matip will slot straight in... he is needed immediately and the run out may also be good for his own fitness.  Keita would likely be on the bench.  

As i said, both teams looks vulnerable defensively.. the winner will be the one who outscores.

We can beat Atalanta by set pieces and long ball. Its a pity VVD is not able to play. His long passes from deep to our wide forwards will be useful to by pass the Atalanta Quartet in the middle. If Matip is not even 80%, I rather take a risk and start Rhys Williams. He did well against Ajax, didnt he? Anyway we do not need to win at all cost. We will still meet Atalanta at Anfield.

Ajax travelling to Denmark with depleted squad due to C19. Since  game three and four is back to back. Hope they can cancel each other out. Draw over two games. Then 9 pts should be enough to progress to next round.

I will be glad with a draw.

The money bubble shod be strong enough at top level football. If u hv the resources to over test and isolate the patient. Then u r pretty safe. 

Think general England public health is even worst, shut down imminent. Remember reading during efl cup, an epl club (maybe spurs) offered to pay for c19 test for their opponent, as lower league clubs did nit have the financial resources to test all their players and staffs frequently. Think the cost of testing is not cheap, close to a hundred quid per pop.

Anyway, watch the video in below link, I think in future, we may even be choosing player's perspective to watch a match. Fouls and offside wi be called by AI instead of the var official. Akan datang

Dont worry. Singapore designed breathalyzer will be on market soon thus making it cheaper and faster to test.

We beat Ajax away so we will still play both Ajax and Atalanta at home. With all due respect, Midtjylland is a good team but not exactly Bayern Munich level. We need 4 more points from 4 games to reach 10pts. 10pts shld get us over the line.
