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.

    Is this a Middlesbrough-Watford replay from yesterday??

  12. bojack

    The best thing about the first half is that one of the linemen looks like James Milner.

    best move:

    1 Can > Lallana and 3 upfront stay intact

    2 Studge > Lallana and shift Firmino to False 9 and move Coutinho upfront to the left side

    Hahhahahaha..
    Lol at Young

    1. JIM BOB
      • 7 Years

      He should be sent off every match he plays for moaning at the ref

      1. El-Kloppico
        • 8 Years
        7 years, 7 months ago

        Just reminding ref that he is a better actor 🙂

      Lol at Young. What a pr1ck

    • fedolefan

      Referee stepping up here. Giving out dodgy cards for fun.

    • Bubz
      • 10 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      So Zlatan hacks people all half and gets nothing. Young says a swearword and gets a yellow.

        Ashley Young was in refs face after every tackle - enough was enough, ref was trying to let game flow imo.

    • Jimmers
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      7 years, 7 months ago

      Ashley Young - such a tosser (when he's not diving)

      Anyone else delighted with 0-0 so far?

      De Gea + Valencia owner and put a few euro on the 0-0 😀

      Entertainment is overrated
