Dugout Discussion – Liverpool vs West Ham United

The final match of Gameweek 15 sees Liverpool welcome West Ham United to Anfield in the 4.30pm kick-off.

Both Sadio Mane and Roberto Firmino are highly fancied against a Hammers defence that shipped five at home to Arsenal last weekend.

Mane has served up points in five of his six home outings, whilst Firmino will be looking to banish a three-match barren run and return to the form that has already seen him register 15 points in front of his own supporters on two occasions.

Divock Origi looks to score for the fourth successive match in all competitions to strengthen his claim as a mid-price festive frontman.

West Ham, meanwhile, have home encounters with Burnley and Hull followed by a trip to Swansea in the upcoming three Gameweeks.

We’ll be looking for signs of form from Dimitri Payet and the fit-again Michail Antonio, then, while big Andy Carroll is named amongst the subs against his former club, having emerged from the bench to net the Hammers’ consolation against Arsenal last time out.

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

      Well, if Karius got his hand to it it's safe to say some GK probably could have saved it.

      Don't actually blame him here though, very tricky free.

      Agree. Awesome shot curling down and away sharply. Although Karius seemed to be over compensating to one side of goal positionally.

      He got a hand on it, a better keeper could've saved it. That being said, I think the wall was at fault this time.

      1. No.

      2. Kane could pull a Ibra and do good with worser teams. Maybe go for someone who is more #safe.

      3. Firmino might be bad but he is still better than those two.

        Cheers all. I'm thinking Eriksen too and hold fire on booting out Nacho. Since Firmino has been booted out wide, to quote Tiger Woods, he's playing like a sp*z.
