Next, we take a look back at the post-match data in our usual members’ analysis of the previous Gameweek.
We skew our analysis towards Double Gameweek 37 assets, as Man City, Arsenal and West Ham’s attacks all feature. Meanwhile, Newcastle’s form at both ends of the pitch is also assessed prior to their favourable weekend fixture and double-header.
Still needs to confirm Top 4. Imagine a draw against Stoke and then loss against Chelsea in GW37; Top 4 would not be guaranteed going into the final game potentially.
Rest against Stoke. Play against Roma and Chelsea.
top 4 matters, if Pool lose to Stoke Chelsea will have their CL fate back in their own hands.
Correct. If LIV lose they are on 71 after 36 games. If Che win both games in hand, they are on 69 points after 36 games. They then play each other.
But if LIV draw they will play CHE with 72 points and CHE 69 points and goal difference for LIV is so great. All LIV need is a draw and win from Brighton/Stoke, not two wins, and that's if Chelsea go 4-for-4.
CHE have Swansea, Huddersfield and Newcastle so Top 4 still potentially on for them.
Remember, Liverpool were 3-0 up to City (who are arguably better than Roma) and still rested Salah in the PL
5-2 is marginally worse than 3-0 because of the away goal
Reminder: Salah had a groin injury, that was not just regular rest.
Precautionary withdrawal imo.
Fantastic point.
He went off early with an injury in the City game
It doesn't work like that.
Good point, and it was the Derby he was rested for, surely a more important game than Stoke.
Silva or Sane?
Sane
Sane this GW
Silva next GW
Is it fair to say that Liverpool is only team in the world capable of parking full bus last 10 minutes whilst scoring 5 goals in the same game
they should have parked the bus, but not doing so has given Roma hope.
Bloody lovren saving Salah non-owners
Salah got his rest towards the end of the game today. He's desperate to win the golden boot and to break records.
There is no way he doesn't start against Stoke.
This! Mo is on a roll and needs games to keep that laser left peg at max precision. Also balloon d'or obsessed.
Rovers promoted, were on the way back! 😀
Nice, congrats 🙂
Thanks, grants to Stanley on topping L2 too
*grats
oh christ no 😉
Are you still owned by those chickens?
What? like big rich Russian chickens that own football clubs in between laying eggs
Congrats
Actually quite pleased as a Salah and Kane owner.
Can now captain Kane on the basis that Salah will only play 60/70 mins rather than the full game
He got 2goals and 2 assists in that time against Roma tonight.
We never do things the easy way. I can't wait for the day when Lovren gets sold.
he looked well out of it on occasion this evening
Imagine being pissed off after winning a CL SF 5-2...
We're amazingly frustrating 😆
You're a Liverpool fan 😯
Will Gomez get a chance at CB next season with Van Dijk? He has loads of talent, just needs the games.
Next seaso they will sign another goaly and CB
Losing a european tie from being 5 goals up will be some achievement 😉
please help out!
early thinking = Silva Ryan Barnes Mee --> Ramsey/??? Fab JAyew Smalling (-8)???
Would give me BB37
DDG FABIANSKI
Robertson SMALLING VDH Lowton MORGAN
STERLING MAHREZ SON Zaha RAMSEY
KANE JESUS JAYEW
other suggestions appreciated
Get Salah, thank me later
No. Sold in 33, not gonna bugger up the rest of my team for only 3 games to get him back in with big hits.
Looks good, though might be worth shipping Ramsey if they make EL final. I’d imagine chopping and changing a plenty
cheers. yeah, will only bring him in if ars are knocked out
In all the craziness tonight, please could u gtg my team or any changes?
Karius
Dunk Kompany lejeune
Sterling Alli zaha salah Kenedy
Kane (c) Jesus
Fab chilwell Wilson mustafi
some good differentials in there tbh. gtg.
if anything, i probably wouldn't want to keep dunk
No I’d agree. He’s got a double 37 and good for a goal (at either end!)
Wilson gonna go next week to to ayew and probs a united defender in
I am afraid of going without Mo v Stoke. Good night
Get him then
don't be afraid he won't start 😉
A) Kane Alonso
B) Lukaku Jesus
A or B for GW37?
A
A
Quietly switched the armband back to Kane.
Our year!
Dilly Dilly.
-8 to get this team?
De gea
Smalling, Vertonghen, Christensen
Son, Willian, Sterling, Sane
Jesus, Kane, Barnes
Ryan, Mustafi, Gudmundsson, Morgan
Nice team
Liverpool’s biggest game of the season next week and people think Salah will start at the weekend 🙂 If he got injured Pool have no chance of winning.
They don't need to win unfortunately
They conceded 2 goals in 20mins when Salah went off did you watch the game :p
Which means they badly need him fully for the return, so may need to rest him in 36 innit
They didn't concede because he was subbed
Step back now. Remember the fireworks code...
If they don't finish Top 4 that's worse.
Not worth having salah if you can't captain him is it
What if he gets a brace and the captain blanks
You'll wish you'd have captained him instead
But I would gladly take the points
I will captain him if AE says he starts
Good to go for the weekend?
DDG
Tark Lowton Morgan
Alli Son Hazard Pogba
Kane Vardy Barnes
Ryan Alonso Mustafi Kenedy
No. Get Man City players.
No worth it for hits with rotation looming. People are becoming obsessed with their assets and Pep could make a mockery of the team sheets
Do what you want then.
get hazard oot imo. sterling, silva, sane, kdb all better picks
For a hit though? Will most likely for the DGW37
ig
I don't get it why people now suddenly transfer Salah back in, like today's haul is transferred to saturday. If i remember correctly, after his watford monster game, he scored "only" one goal in next game vs palace.
Would you settle for only 1 goal vs stoke?
he might score 2
Would Salah settle for only 1 goal vs Stoke?
A couple of days ago vs wba, he did
Glad to have the transfer done early for gw38 at least. Hope Mo bangs in 5 vs Stoke to surpass ole Rush.
Who scores more ?
A. Milivojevic (LEI, sto, WBA)
B. Kenedy (WBA, wat, spurs, CHE)
Salah
Sorry Mili

Jurgen Klopp just on beIN SPORTS stressing how he needs the crowd to be as vocal on Saturday as they were today because "we really need 3 points against Stoke." I'd guess from Salah starts, particularly with him coming off early today.
😀
Sweet Mo double hattie dreams until Saturday, my sleep quality is worth the points hit!
I don't own Salah . If I post about rotation enough he will be rotated . Simple logic 😎
I own salah, if I post about making fun of people who post about being rotated, he won't be rotated
😉
I own Salah
But going to captain Kane 😉
Salah is just 25. He’s gone to Madrid in the summer, right?
Not this summer I think
*His contract goes to 2022, no way he stays for all that.
He's quite old. You would have thought he was a young new talent the way people speak about him.
‘Old’? You do realise that football players are at their peak at 27-28 years of age. He is only getting started
Source?
Just Googled it, seems there is some truth to it.
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-28254123
not Michael Owen, not Fernando Torres, not Wayne Rooney, etc. depends on the position. Attackers peak earlier typically then midfielders then defenders then goalkeepers.
True but he’s prime now, and will be for at least 3, 4, 5 seasons?
Could well be. Wouldn't surprise me.
If he wins the CL, I'd imagine so.
I think he’s proven enough, but if they win CL, that just cements I’d think.
Anfield Express, please bench Salah
I'm not sure they decide the lineups.
Thought they did
I think they do. No source to back this up unfortunately
Imagine they got it wrong
Klopp very clear he needs to focus the team and wants to go again on Sat and important to win....
When does the Anfield express report?
usually friday afternoon
Lukaku to Kane?
Yeah.
Yes Salah is great and he knows how to score a goal, but Firmino... wow what a player he is.
Firmino works so hard too
A joy to watch
When he smiles
Firmino still criminally underrated imo.
He is not
Just overshadowed by Salah
5 years, 12 months agoHope Klopp rests Mane, Firmino and Salah against Stoke. PL doesn't matter and f*** Stoke and the other relegation candidates.
