Haha, actually, I watched it.

I guess I meant a side not involving the deliberate selection of young/fringe players against lower-standard opposition in cup competitions, i.e., the worst Premier League side we have ever picked.
Yeah but he's probably close to the team that will get picked. We dont have a lot of options unfortunately.

Also apparently Klopp wanted Grujic to come in straight away and not be loaned back but Grujic wouldnt budge. He wants to win a league title with his childhood club. He's a Red Star fan and wants to realise a dream. Good on him I say.

Apparently all the players havent been paid in a while, neither have coaches, physios, chefs and other staff because of the dire situation. The 5.1 million they are getting for him is going to be huge for Red Star.

It wasn't intended to be a criticism of anyone in particular (and certainly not the poster, who is probably going to be on the money). Obviously, the injuries mean that we don't have much room to manoeuvre. I just look at that team and, in my lifetime supporting the club, I'd be surprised if we have fielded a worse Premier League XI.

Hodgson's side with Joe Cole Ngog Poulsen Konchesky Jovanovic and Sparta probably takes the cake
Those sides still had Gerrard (before his decline), Meireles, Reina, Torres and Kuyt. It wasn't a great side by any stretch, but it had more top quality than the side posted above, in which Clyne is arguably the only really good player.

The shitness of Poulsen and Konchesky easily outweighed the good of anyone else. To this day I don't know how those two players represented LFC.

if you haven't watched this yet you should


my favorite part is around 8 minutes where he talks about Coutinho, Lallana, Benteke, Milner and how they're all very good players but simply need to learn how to play in a new team. the skills are there but the team isn't. it seems so logical. it's like how people say "Benteke doesn't fit our style" - what style? who's style? we've seen 1/16th of Klopp's style so far so who's? i love this guy and everything he says

if we cant beat west ham at the third attempt this season we may as well fold

Injury update.

Origi was supposed to be back in 2 weeks now it's 5 weeks.
Lovren has gone from 2 weeks to 1 week.
Flanagan played another half in the Academy.

as The Punter says, Sakho and Henderson could play (as well as Ibe and Toure).

Mignolet
Clyne Sakho Toure Moreno
Henderson Can Allen
Lallana Ibe
Firmino

Subs: Ward Lucas Smith Brannagan Milner Benteke Ojo
