Liverpool FC supporters thread - 2017/18 Season

Phillips was so impressive today. Recon if he and Joe can hold the fort 'till Joel is fit again, I'll start feeling better about a season without Virg.

Fab, Thiago, Naby, Ox and Tsimikas still to come back, but Shaq was sharp tonight... That through-ball was not of this world.

Agreed the actual squad is the strongest I have seen in years or atleast the strongest I can remember. Think my might need back up for BOBBY but we have so many options in the midfield we should be ok

That through ball was intended for Mane... in a offside position

I disagree - Shaq spots the Jota run - that's not aimed at Mane - Mane stands still and makes himself small

His name is Diogo Jota.

Are we sure... I mean really sure that Diogo Jota isn’t some alien cyborg tech?

That’s five in four.

 

[B@rrels]

Unbelievable this guy...so casual.

Putting him in my fantasy team, looks the real deal which is very scary for everyone else as he will probably still improve

All of a sudden it looks like we're playing with 12 guys on the field. Jota ftw. 2 brilliant goals..

Brilliant salah

 

[Hamish McPanji]

And it's 4!!!

 

[CAPS LOCK]

Dang...

Hat trick for Jota...

You reckon he's going to take Bobby's place? I can see him getting a start every now and again but i don't think Klopp is going to rotate the front 3 that often.

Not sure listened to ESPNFC podcast this morning and most of the guys think Jota won't replace Firmino this weekend but he is definitely getting closer. If he keeps improving he will definitely put pressure on the entire front 3 to keep performing

Didn't expect this starting lineup!?!

Maybe not, but I find myself not hating it.

At all.

EDIT: They'll play 4 2 3 1 with Bobby dropping back, but goddamn the four of them on the pitch, starting.

Lol too true.

All that commentary and speculation as to who should start the game, Bobby or Jota...Klopp says hold my beer and does the unexpected.

Love it.

Gomez. Amateur hour right there.

We light in midfield with this formation. Especially against city. De bruyne can’t keep on getting that ball 5m from our box unopposed.
