He will also play for Brazil I think next week? I would rest someone from front 3 for Origi because he's been doing well recently

Both Mane and Firmino have NT duties but Salah doesn't. Shaqiri should start over Origi.

Liverpool XI: Alisson, Fabinho, van Dijk, Wijnaldum, Firmino, Mane, Salah, Lallana, Robertson, Matip, Alexander-Arnold

Good team.

Wijnaldum is almost never getting rested, he plays almost every game, this was a good game to rest him for Milner so he can be a bit more fresh for the end of the season

Well, he has played lesser than the front 3 and Robertson.

Salah has played in all 40 games upto now this season.

Yeah but I guess the midfield players need the most rotation because they play with the most intensity, maybe fullbacks too, but Robertson's stamina is superb. It looks like everyone in midfield is rotating except Wijnaldum is always there and rarely getting rested, I hope he will have energy for the end of the season

I don't see why we wouldn't be playing our best team in this game, we shouldn't rest players for their nation sides, they should rest our players for us. This is a crucial game in the league because this is the last time for the rest of the season when we will play before Man City, so it is important for us to play our best 11 and get the right result

Gini is playing every game because he has been our most important midfielder this season, when he was out of a few weeks we ended up drawing the games with Leicester and West Ham and then when he came back we went back to winning ways,makes since to keep him in the first 11 when fit.

That's exactly why I want him fresh for the rest of the season, I thought he looked a bit tired in some previous games

He's a pro footballer, he should definitely have the fitness to be able to carry him through the last what 9 league games and a max of 5 CL games. If he can't get himself through 14 games then he really shouldn't be playing for us.

Half time 1-0, Mane with the goal from magic. Nothing else to note this half, glad they turned up for that second of the game. Hoping for a good second half performance since we have a break after this.

Fabinho needs to come off, he's being sloppy after the yellow.

Massive bottlejob.

Just about come through.

Salah needs to get his head out of his ass. Mane is carrying the team now. And as much as I like firmino we should be looking at getting a better goal scorer for next season.

Elite mentality coming back after that goal

It is going to take sheer force of will and solid mentality to get us through CL run and EPL games. It is going to get tougher and tougher. The only thing I am worried about is "the team dropping their shoulders when things go wrong". This Salah dry patch, tactics, midfield or anything else can count only to some extent in terms of actually winning trophy this season imo. I hope Klopp manages to keep everyone calm and focused.

Enjoy the next 2 weeks off....because it'll be the mother of all stress and run-ins for the 6 weeks that will follow.

For once, my body is ready for the international break

looks like shaq and robertson are both injured. when i close my eyes tonight all im gonna see is moreno destroying my dreams.

Can't wait for those 6 weeks bruh, this has to be the most interesting season in recent memory both in PL and CL, 2 teams fighting for PL, 4 teams fighting for 2 CL spots, relegation battle too, battle for 7th and possible EL spot too, and in the CL if all favourites go through we could have City-Juve and Barca-Liverpool and potentially one of the best semis in a long time and it would be fresh matches not the same ones we see almost every year, and CL has been amazing this season so many comebacks and great matches in the first knockout round. EL too is probably the best I have ever seen in terms of quality. What an amazing season so far

If Robertson is injured, I'd much rather have Milner playing LB. He's proven to be better at LB than Moreno!!

I think Robertson is nothing serious and should be ready for our next game, idk about Shaqiri though. On the positive note, Gomez and Ox should both be fit to play after the NT break

Liverpool right-back Trent Alexander-Arnold has pulled out of the England squad to face the Czech Republic and Montenegro with a back injury.

The 20-year-old is the fifth player to withdraw from Gareth Southgate's squad for the upcoming Euro 2020 qualification double-header.

It is understood Alexander-Arnold has had the back injury since Liverpool hosted Burnley 10 days ago, and reported to St George's Park in the hope of recovering in time to represent England.

Sepp lad, do we go again with the tick marks like the legendary 2014 season which nearly put us if not all in depression? Do we have enough confidence in this squad to go beat all the final remaining league games?
