I heard that the City and United games may be tried to be played sometime during the midweek (Wednesday/Thursday), then have them play Monday/Tuesday the next week, and then be back on a normal schedule.

Granted the other option is just postpone them for a few weeks and stuff them in midweek randomly.

They should have just been drawn against each other, but apparently the TV honchos blocked that because they want that game prime time.

 

[Ben Grimm]

Brighton is going down to Chinatown.

 

[Savant]

Chamberlain is injured and will miss the start of the season. Henderson and Matip should be back for Week 1 though.

Brighton is going down to Chinatown.

If by going down you mean, qualifying for Europe than yeah I would agree...

Bielsa saying it’s not Anfield without the crowd. Wonder if he’ll eat those words.

He's right....

Whether his team can beat Liverpool or not is a different issue.

 

[robertmac43]

Intrigued to see how Arsenal's back-line sets up, Arteta has many options. Anything but a win would be a disappointing result.

Ya. That’s what I mean. A 3-0 or a 4-0 will sting badly with or without fans.

Klopp will face the best coach in the game.

Title is misleading.

Probably a 3-4-3 with Saliba, Holding and Tierney for this game, don’t think he will start Gabriel. Also don’t think he will play a 4 at the back considering the midfielders we have. We need to sign players for a 433 or 4231 to work, a creative midfielder and a B2B ball winner preferably.

Klopp will face the best coach in the game.

Well yes, but not until the 28th.

[King Makar19]

Gabriel . Willian . debut.

El Shitny start....

No Pepe No Fun.

 

[YNWA14]

Lacazette should have a yellow for that dive lol

 

[AB13]

Not exactly a goal of the season contender but nice to lead

And Laca did not dive, he got an elbow to the face. But he commited the foul at first so it does not matter

He didn’t get an elbow in the face it was clear as day on the replay. He ran into the guys arm around his collarbone area while committing the foul then grabbed his face and dropped to the ground.

 

[King Makar19]

Tim Ream is atrocious. No way they avoir relegation with him at CB

Gabriel after nervous moment look very decisive.

Tierney is a pest. Best LB ater Robbo.

Willian is Tidy.

 

[Evilo]

Why isn't Saliba playing?

 

[YNWA14]

This Fulham team is really lacking in quality. Even when they push forward they look just as likely to lose the ball in their own feet than to make a decent pass. Maybe just early season issues but they could struggle.
