Whatever the quality of the two signings, Klopp -like Pep- is one of a very few managers that actually improve players.

Are these two new super signings asthamtic by any chance? Likelyhood is they'll be injured in a month anyway...

Celtic and Liverpool know your place in European football historyNo disrespect to Ben Davies, whom I have little to no knowledge, but Sly sports are making him out to be a hybrid of Franco Barresi and Bobby Moore, I think I missed the bidding war between all the European super teams for Furlough FCs new superstar.

not sure you could argue that buying two centre halves to play there is worse than having 2 midfielders playing there...Fabihno did a very very good job there but putting him and Henderson back into midfield strengthens the whole team so there will be less pressure on the back 4 with their "runners" back in midfield as well...Stronger in midfield but arguably weaker at the back ?

Davies getting the Jesse Lingard/Benjamin Button treatment with Sky, Redknapp etc referring to him as ‘a promising young player’. He’s 26 in the summer.
A bit like their ‘youngster’ Nat Phillips who is two months older than Ruben Dias

Think the game at weekend feels title-defining rather than title-deciding.
If Liverpool win and go on to win the league they’ll look back at this one as the game where it changed in their favour.
In some ways it feels very similar to the game at the swamp in 17/18 where we won 2-1. We were already ahead in the league but that game put a gap between us and united that was probably a step too far for them. We then went on to build a big gap.
Ive said previously I’d take a point and still would, but a win would do as much for us psychologically, as it would for our points tally.
Coming away from Anfield with 3 points knowing we’re 7 clear of them with a game in hand would be HUGE and think we’d kick on even more

Good comparison, must win for them, must not lose for usThink the game at weekend feels title-defining rather than title-deciding.

It's my Birthday on Sunday.
So I want a big smile to be put on my face, first by the missus and to end the day with a Foden hatrick.
But before then:
Oh when the saints.....
I want to be in that number.....

Wouldn’t at all surprise me if we see the return of inverted wingers for this game, Sterling left and Foden right, to target whoever their centre backs are

We were 8 points clear of them and level on games played going in to that one.Good comparison, must win for them, must not lose for us
Had we already played Everton I’m pretty confident we’d be going in to this one 7 clear of Liverpool.

it's amazing how many of these pundits knew this Davies was a great talent but never mentioned him till yesterday, he's now in line for england call up

Fuck me, some hard of thinking Doris and Neil Mellor on SSN already talking Davies up for an England call up. Staggering. Absolutely unthinkable if he had signed for any other club outside of the M62 redshirts.

We were too scared to play Everton, remember....We were 8 points clear of them and level on games played going in to that one.

Exactly the reverse of the fixture at Etihad, when the perceived knowledge was that Klippety would be happier with the point than Pep would be.Good comparison, must win for them, must not lose for us
That just shows how things can change.

Can’t wait to find what a Kabak will end up being. A bit like Panenka but some sort of a defensive error.
I'm guessing its a pass that you don't know whether it is gonna go backwards or forwards.Can’t wait to find what a Kabak will end up being. A bit like Panenka but some sort of a defensive error
A bit like a Pep.
According to the Daily United, now the Daily Liverpool, this Turkish lad is Klopp‘s saviour. That is the headline, I kid you not.
Haven’t these football journalists, if that‘s what you can call them, got any shame or self respect? Who in their right mind would come up with a headline like that.
