I must be the only one here who doesn't think the line up is too bad, Davies hasnt got to run too much of a distance, Lo Celso is crafty and doesn't mind a tackle and reggy is the outlet on the left. Its not as bad as you think chaps.... COYS

Agreed. And no start for Reguilon against a team with their attackers is the biggest telegraph that we're gonna sit back constantly to avoid those flanks getting stretched.
As others have said, we should be trying to exploit that back line while we have the chance.
But hey, I'll give José the benefit of the doubt and see what the hell the game plan actually pans out as. Perhaps we're planning on letting them swing hard in the first half then bring on Reggie and Ndombele against tired legs.
Rotation is to be expected, Ndombele is stil building his fitness and isn’t ready to start game after game. Reguilon needs a rest and was rubbish against Palace. It’s two solid players coming in.
We have to get out of this mentality of “player x is starting so we are going to lose”. You think Liverpool fans are thinking that because two people I’ve never heard of are in their starting XI?
Our spine is still there so there are no excuses. 2 changes shouldn’t mean we can’t play well.
They will target Davies for days now - Sissoko to play as a second LB basically else were fucked on the left
Only way this is sensible is if it's this :
LlorisBut Jose isn't that brave.
Alderwiereld - Dier - Davies
Aurier - Lo Celso - Hojbjerg - Ndombele - Reguilon
Son - Kane
Exactly even against shite teams Davies has been woefulThe thing is Dele and Vinicus have actually been good in the Europa. Davies on the other hand hasn't.
How dare he score and look good in the Europa League.
