Despite Walter Croncs one man crusade to say otherwise I think every Liverpool fan knew he was being bought as a squad player.
I doubt Klopp would have signed him if he didn't want him as was seen when he wouldn't buy any other centre back than VVD. Klopp doesn't seem to buy players for the sake of it.

Mane a massive loss.

I don't think I ever stated that he would be a first team player LL. I just fail to see what he is good at having seen him live on numerous occasions. There are loads of players in the same boat though!

[Puckoon]

At least he was starting at the Emirates. Weird move by the player then.

I fear a bit of a rout on Saturday

But Man u are going well at the minute.

Manchester United are going well because they have been playing teams that are traditionally always below them and don't make the top 5. But now Liverpool Chelsea etc are coming up so we will see how good they are
Liverpool are always capable of rising their game for the top sides
It's the inconsistency they show against the Crystal Palaces of the league that hits them year in year out

Home game against a team that were below youvin the league the last few seasons and have parked the bus against you also... get your lot on Liverpool... 3-1

Champions elect according to their fans.

I haven't watched very much if any of their games this season. They are obviously going well though so I'd be happy with a draw. Mane a massive loss for us but we should still have enough going forward to trouble them. Depends on how the defence holds up. Then again they may just come and park the bus and hoof the ball long like they did last season.
1-1

Maribor game on Tuesday is arguably a bigger game in terms of needing a win at this early stage of the season.

Happy enough with a draw at home? What a chicken-shit attitude!!   Lol!   Like most of the past 27 seasons in Anfield expectations tend to fall through the floor around October when the dark realisation set in!

I'd be happy enough with a draw too.

I would expect Mourinho to set United up similarly, hoping to nick it on a corner or free.

Hopefully a better game than last year's disgrace though.

[Milltown Row2]

Agreed, I can't see any change from last season, having form is one thing but these games take a life of their own... park the bus and if Utd can nick a goal then great... it's just Liverpool are due a big win

"Stunning" might be overstating it a bit  . Higuita he aint.

As for tomorrow I have to say I feel really nervous about it. Mané is a massive blow and I worry about our lack of cover in front of the back four.  United have serious pace in Martial, Rashford, Lukaku and Mkitharyan and I can see them sitting back (Not to the extent that they did last year) and looking to hit us on the  break. Would prefer Robertson to Moreno and probably Firmino leading the line.

True to a certain extent but United of recent seasons dont win the games against the weaker sides, thats where they needed to improve as they did well in the big games.

So for the second year in a row Mourhino and United come to Anfield with their putrid anti football.
Still though it was up to Liverpool to break them down and just were not good enough to do so.
I think Mane could have been the difference today were he playing.
Liverpool crying out for a Torres type player imo.

Cannot argue with any of that but Pogba is some miss for United.

[heganboy]

Kind of feels like Liverpool lost...
