Dugout Discussion

The Dugout Discussion – Liverpool vs Man United

Gameweek 8 comes to its conclusion this evening as Liverpool welcome Man United to Anfield.

Jurgen Klopp’s in-form outfit seek a fifth successive win in the top-flight and could even climb to the summit if they register a victory by a margin of four or more goals.

That’s perhaps unlikely yet, having netted nine times in two matches in front of their own supporters, the Reds will be in buoyant mood tonight.

The likes of Roberto Firmino, Philippe Coutinho and Sadio Mane will be keenly monitored by Fantasy managers as the Merseysiders prepare for a superb upcoming run of fixtures.

For United, the form of Zlatan Ibrahimovic is the main point of concern around these parts.

The big Swede has a single goal in five appearances and has already earned more transfers out than any other forward in the Gameweek.

Another blank and the exodus will surely pick up pace, given that Jose Mourinho then takes his side to former club Chelsea next Sunday – the Blues have chalked up back-to-back shut-outs since the switch to 3-4-3.

      Why does Ashley Young have to be in the refs face every time he makes a decision.

      Arse.

      Giving the ball away like 20 times so far surely isn't though

    Looks like Mourinho did a job on the ref

    1. SW6
      • 11 Years

      He looks scared to book players.

      1. Wild Rover
        • 13 Years
        7 years, 7 months ago

        Well Utd players anyway. Rashford, Ibra and Herrera should all be in the book

      Mourinho was responding to Liverpool fans moans.

    A lot better pressure from Liverpool now.

    1. Wild Rover
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      More rather than better

    2. Bubz
      • 10 Years

      Shame they keep passing the ball to Utd whenever they get near their box

  22. Bleach †

    This game is dead, looking ahead at the fixtures do we expect City to smash Southampton?

    Is it time to join the Walcott wagon and ditch Cazorla? I just know Santi has a 20 pointer coming up soon, have Sanchez already.

    1. FrankieTheGent
      • 9 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      Nobody smashes Southampton

  27. The Gambler.
    • 14 Years
    7 years, 7 months ago

    Tragic. Can off Lallana on please

  28. Wild Rover
    • 13 Years
    7 years, 7 months ago

    I wonder if Klopp will sub Studge at half time? A bit of an admission that he got it wrong if he does.

    1. Kaneyonero
      • 7 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      Lallana has to come on now

    2. Bleach †
      • 8 Years

      he's been useless tonight

  29. Danno - Emre Canada

    A couple of decent benches here tonight

    1. Wild Rover
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      Are Holebas and Allen on it?

      1. Danno - Emre Canada
        • 9 Years
