The Dugout Discussion – Liverpool vs West Bromwich Albion

A hugely frustating Saturday comes to its conclusion as Liverpool entertain West Bromwich Albion at Anfield.

The Reds’ run of four straight wins was halted by a dogged Man United display on Monday evening, though on the positive side, Jurgen Klopp’s side chalked up a first clean sheet of the season ahead of some very kind looking fixtures.

Bearing in mind that the Baggies have a single clean sheet in seven, owners of the likes of Philippe Coutinho, Roberto Firmino, Sadio Mane and Adam Lallana will be optimistic of returns tonight. The latter returns to the starting line-up in Jurgen Klopp’s only change from the side that were frustrated by the Red Devils.

Four goals and two assists in five appearances makes Nacer Chadli the visitors’ danger man, whilst Ben Foster owners will be expecting a save point or two at least as he looks to repel the Reds’ attack.

Paul Is certain he won't make the same mistakes next season. Follow them on Twitter

      Probably Arnie's turn to score a brace if there's any rhyme or reason in predicting which Stoke midfielder will score next.

      But to answer your question, yes. I'd do Snoddy > Allen

    Got Coutinhio in for a hit for Capoue.
    Antonio the next for the chop. Which Liverpool mid? Mane? Firminio? Lallana?

    I might even triple up and get rid of Snodgrass too.

    Goals galore from Pool mids I feel.
