1. We can’t keep a clean sheet
2. We can’t get to halftime without conceding the first goal
3. We can’t score no matter how many chances we create
This. Defense is shaky, midfielders can’t create, forwards can’t score.
Everyone like this comment so it can snap reality back into people
I think this is a killer lineup, I like it a lot. Gakpo was our best player in the last two games, and he was so impactful on the left wing with his crosses against Palace.
Dom gets a lot of stick lately cause his sub-par (or occasionally horrendous) passes as of late get him in the limelight for all the wrong reasons. But he actually creates 3-4 chances a game, the strikers just never seem to take them. He could have so many assists by now. He was the one creating that big chance for Jota on Sunday as well that could have easily gone in.
I've seen his game improve, finally his corners were great again, I think he was good up front. Klopp uses him as a workhorse for the most part but if the next manager can give him a bit more creative freedom and he just sorts his head out, he'll be world class by next season, mark my words.
...Real Madrid is for Szobo...
Rarely agree with someone but bro you are spot on.
I read an article at the weekend regarding the “efficiency” in front of goal of 600 or so players in the various leagues .
Jota came fourth , Nunez around 565th with Diaz two places worse again .
Pretty sobering stats for a team pushing for the title
Few times in life do we witness a 3-0 turnaround BUT I have seen it done a handful of times so there’s always hope
It's happened twice in recent years.....against Milan in Istambul and against Barsa at Anfield......but with Darwin, I don't see it happening. Maybe try Danns?
@@panchopuskas1 Danns really are you serious , mmm! let me think i know what about Jota first .
except no Mane, Firmino or Origi this time, keep this in mind.
@@panchopuskas1yeah. but after watching klopp closely I don't think lfc can do it. he does not have the smarts to turn things around. last season is a prime example. no way the likes of pep, fergie gonna finish outside of top 4 like him. heck he can't even beat a trash manager like ten hag. who figures him out. if trash manager that lost 7-0 to him can stop him no way a manager that just best him 3-0 will slip up. I just hope this won't change gen z lfc fan opinion about klopp and Salah. it made me happy watching them disrespect the likes of Paisley and rush by claiming klopp and Salah is the best ever
I completely agree 👍 with the team you have picked for the return leg of the Europe league
thank you for your 4-1 prediction have not had as good a laugh in a long time .
Love the new head to head segment
Up the reds. We have to believe that we can do this.
I cant see a world in where we keep a cleansheet and comeback 4-0 BUT i can see us win 5-1 or 6-2 😅
3-1 liverpool atlanta go through 4-3
5-0 win is enough for liverpool to go through😂
@@Tony.L9793 Why don't you go the whole hog with 10-0 .
@@michaeldooley5398 lol, so obvious its fixed😂
Because we were so clinical in front of goal lately?
Personally I would bench Trent and bring him on at half time. Don’t think he can play 90 minutes and we need him for the end of the game/extra time
First half : Ata 0 - 2 Liv
2nd half : Ata 1 - 3 Liv
Full time : Ata 1 - 5 Liv
Agg : Ata 4 - 5 Liv
nice prediction
On the subject of Darwin nunez I believe we should give him one more full season to prove himself worthy of the liverpool shirt. Hes incredibly frustrating but the thought of him going somewhere else and tearing it up is scary. Perhaps the new manager can get him to finish better instead of blasting every shot. Honestly think give him another 6 months maybe at least.
Bro I swear if i see darwin go to a different club and destroy i will be fuming
Get rid
Maybe let him just focus on shooting and finishing in training I don't know..his misses are unbelievable for a pro striker
More than 2 years for a £90m player is just mental get rid of him.
In Bergamo airport give Nunez one more flight, the longer the better.
I don't agree with you on many things, but for a long time I think that Mac, Elliot, Dom are the best starters.....by the way, my opinion is that: Szoboszlai is the first violinist, but Klopp expects him as a piano player in Liverpool....this is a big problem. ...
@@user-bc3js3sd6v Mac sold 10 balls in the last game!!!!!! What do you think about that? Diaz, Nunez and Salah should have scored at least 10 goals from Szob's passes in the past six months...what do you think about that?
Így van ezt, már hallottam a műsorba magyarul !
@@Judge-70 igen, abból idéztem…lehet lovagolni, az elmúlt meccseken való hibáin, de arról senki sem beszél, hogy Mac pl a legutóbbi meccsen 10 labdát adott el…nekem sem tetszett az elmúlt meccseken Dominik játéka, viszont pálcát törni felette butaság…de biztos elfogult vagyok
@@halatigernutIgen, ezeknek az angol kommentelőknek teljesen szemellenzős, egyoldalú és igazságtalan az értékelésük, ráadásul a szürke kis Endót meg istenítik.
Violins? Pianos? Huh
agree with jota, he always seems to come through
It’s very simply. If the squad wants it then we have the quality to progress. If they wanna be sloppy and uninspiring we can forget it
Simple*
True
For us to have any chance on Thursday, we MUST keep a clean sheet!! That has been the near impossible for us this season 🤬🤬 we need to go for it and not sit back and invite them to get at us!!!
Nice one Craig.
I Agree, And you imagine Mo Salah coming on at 65th min , Curtis comes on in the engine room, Darwin comes on with 10 to go ... Yeah Boiiii
I can see Liverpool win 4-0 but it doesn’t fill me with much confidence going forward. With that being said Bajcetic needs to come in the squad for Endo I believe that will help the team massively
It seems we're the only ones believing that!😂😅😊
Same was said before palace game....
Realistically and especially since we are away from home, I do predict quite a close game.
Fully agree with your lineup.
Though I somewhat doubt Klopp will start this offensively.
4:0 seems ridiculous but we have nothing to lose.
might as well go all out on attack - more entertaining game and better to win 5-2 and win in extra time/penalties than winning 2-0
@@donvaskez416 I fully agree. Klopp often does tend to avoid this risk with his subs, even when behind.
But at 3:0 down and playing away from home, we really have to go full force from the beginning
Macca needs to go back into 6 and Szoboszlai Jones in front of him. This was Liverpool strongest form this season. It really was. Who knows why. Its unexpected
I think we win 5 1 and go through 5 4 INSHALLAH ❤
I suspect Klopp won't have it in him to drop Salah. Nunez sure. Have a feeling he'll play all 4 of Gakpo, Salah, Diaz and Jota to start, with Gakpo playing CAM. And then probably Dom and Macca behind him. Only worry is if Trent is really not ready to play even/any more than 45, he won't start. That'll be a big problem. Gomez at RB and we aren't progressing. Ideally Trent, Gomez, VVD and Robbo with Ali behind.
Good lineup
As Craig said after the Palace defeat - let’s just take one game at a time. Our form is so terrible that it’s all we can do.
Don't write us off I'm feeling quite confident
I would exchange the positions for Elliott and Szoboszlai.
We must use the width of the pitch. Atalanta played such a narrow midfield last time, I couldn’t believe how we played right into their hands, by also going so narrow.
Thanks for the content
The result will depend on what team klopp picks and the attitude of the players
442 !!! 1,Elliot started the the 3/ 0 loss.. 2,hes left footed always on the right. 3, when Klopp needs goals he plays 442 into a 424, 4 strikers.
I can agree on this, it makes sense but what will Klopp do is the question..
Agree with that except id drop diaz for Salah
Remember Barcelona fc game we have a chance but Need to score early.
Agreed with your line-up for a change
100% agree with your predicted line up.
2:17 atalanta*
I like this line-up. Especially the front three and not because of droppong players. Goes back to what we were speaking about in the stream: trying to not be so predictable going into this game. Lets see and lets hope: I believe!
Today, was feeling for a 0-5 finish, we go HAM for the game. As for your XI, yeah, it's OK. If we have fully fit TAA and Robbo, good. We have strained to score early of late, and allowed teams to score early against us, like we need a push.
That XI is good, especially Elliott who seemed the keenest on Sunday. Having Salah and Nunez rearing to go from the 55mins would be good, and having Gakpo starting would be a change, prefer him central and Jota on the side.
Looks good to me to.
I agree with the front 3!
Hate to agree with this lineup but Konate,Nunes and Mo deserver it. Almost tempted to bring in Jones but guess give Szoboslai 1 more chance
Except that last game Jones messed up way more than Szoboszlai, so wouldn't be too logical to put Jones in ahead of Szobo
...another change?...Szobo is bether then Jones...you áré delusional...
Come on boys let’s win 4 nill
Alisson
Trent, Quansah, VVD, Robbo
Elliot, Macca, Szoboszlai
Jota, Gakpo, Diaz
Alisson
TAA, Konate, VVD, Robbo
Macca, Endo, Elliott
Salah, Jota, Gakpo
@@Amal_R my issue with playing both Endo and Macca is that Macca has been staying back and doesn't help the front 3 press
@@theofficialphoenix814 this match requires to give everything for LFC. Its like all-out attack. Endo dropping between the defenders make a sense in my opinion
You have picked the team on from. Szobo is the wildcard.
I like it.
I had Nunez on the left with the other 2, but I agree, Gakpo deserves to be there
Agreed with your line up spot on
As much as I agree with you. You can’t bench the best winger in the world regardless of form or not.
He was born to score in games like this.
Thats who i would go with to start.
All back form back ❤xxx
Front 3 I would like to see gakpo-jota-mo also our duo fullback Trent and robbo, we need to win this 2nd leg🔥YNWA
I completely agree with your line up Craig! 👏🏻👏🏻
I completely agree🎉
I agree with everyone you pick except I would keep konate when the other players had bad games and even season they got to keep their places so it’s only fair he is given the same opportunity as the others
I agree with u Craig but i don’t think Klopp plays that front three But me, I think he should
5-2 doable. Win on pens
424, 4 strikers. Diaz, Gakpo, Jota, Salah.. Nunez and Elliot are striker subs. Mids Macca, Szoboszlai. Endo, jones subs.
True we need Quansah for this game. I agree with your predicted lineup, I hope we get DANNS on as a sub too.
I think I would do a 4-2-4, the backs the same, Mac and SZ, the front Mo, diaz, jota, gakpo.
We are still Liverpool...
Goal:
Alison
Defence:
Gomez, Jarel, VVD, Robertson
Midfield:
Maca, TAA, Baseitich
Front:
Mo, Jota, Luis
Without Szobo no mitfield, no mitfield, no chanches ! Szobo is a drive machine of LFC attacks! After Szobo replaced/missing LFC attacks collapsed !
Bajetic is not back yet
We will get the chances, if we take them we have a chance. Unfortunately this hasn't been the case recently though this could change!
We have form for going there and scoring goals with strikers who can finish. Nunez needs 5 chances to score 1. It shows me how good Mane, Bobby and Salah were.
I 100 percent agree with this line up we have to play this
Never give up,we have to have hope ❤ YNWA ❤️
Well boys… we have another chapter of miracle to write again. Can we do it?! Lets go & give it our best! You’ll Never Walk Alone ✨
I think we're in for a very difficult evening. I can't see that we have even one player who is truly at the top of their game :(
I was looking forward to booking tickets to the game but i was so saddened when we lost 3-0. If we manage to comeback it will make winning this trophy 10x better under Klopp. YNWA!!!
At some point we'll start hitting the net agsin ive no doubt....this could be a 6 nil win if we hit form and they loose confidence,but the smart money is on atalanta defending deep and playing on the counter....my guess due to our current form 2-3
If we change that front 3 I see a win , front 3 should be Diaz, jota Salah
Gakpo deserves to start but only at LW
Salary should be benched
Play like you guys really want to Win!!! 2-1 For the Reds is my prediction.
Come on Reds !! Lets win 4-0
Love your insight, a 100% attacking threat
I agree with this lineup. The only change I MIGHT would make is putting Gomez in for Quansah just for the experience and stability.
Spot on team craig
We have to prove we are a good team by winning this game by goals. 3-4 of it. And for a change do not conceed. Cmon boys you can do this.
I don’t overly disagree with the lineup, what I would say is gasperini plays man - man so we need matchups of our best players in those situations, macca i agree instead of endo to thread the passes, Elliot technically is good and can beat a man, gravy or dom i would be happy with as they provide that burst we need and the frontline needs freshening up and i agree so hopefully a big result Thursday but we need to be aggressive and on it from the get go and not as passive as we have been for the last month! YNWA come on you reds!
The most important thing is the form for me but I don't expect us to go thru.
Only way we can beat atalanta is if we finish 99percent of our chances then we go through thats only and if we take our chanes salah hatrick is coming and a nunez brace
I agree
Stop starting Quansah. If Konate is healthy, he starts.
He gives away too many fouls
And quansah Gives away free shots at goal..Which one do you prefer??@@Sussibens
Last two games, Konate was horrendous.
@@ralphcitymusic and so has the rest of the team. But in no way Quansah starts over Konate in any form.
@@kingjohnny9532 was 1 mistake whereas konate gives away fouls
Craig I think people forget how good Jota was off the right. I think it should be that front 3 but Lucho on the left, Gakpo down the middle and Jota on the right
watch our finishing form of the last few weeks all click on thursday and we win like 6-0😭
I agree with that line up , Konate , Salah and Nunez do need dropping and Gakpo , Quansah and Elliot deserve a start.
Jota not ready for 90 minutes, and he is more impactful used as a 2nd half sub where his instincts and IQ are most needed.
Can see this tie being a nail biter if Reds score first. They can really punish people when they get in the zone
I like the starting 11 and I agree we need to just go for it. But I can’t help but think there is a little wishful thinking here on Craig’s part rather than a prediction. Granted I love the positive thinking and I agree with the decisions. I reckon Liverpool win the match but I’m not sure it will be enough to go through.
We have good players and we will clean up the slate next liverpool 4 Atlanta 2
My team
Alisson
Trent. Konate Virg Robbo
Macca
Szobo. Jones
Elliot. Salah. Gakpo
I don’t think there will be space in behind to NEED pace and I think we’ve even poor retaining the ball, Nunez and Diaz have been sloppy and held onto the ball too long recently weeks, I don’t know where Jota is at with recovery
I wouldn't use Jones as the water boy he's absolutely useless 😅
agree with yr squad
I think the score would be 1-0 or something
Alison Becker on Liverpool's slump "we need to keep clean sheets+score our chances" 😂 his advice to boxers is "hit your opponent+don't let them hit you" surely Liverpool need look no more for next manager or player/manager with this genius 😂
I am sure that the guys have no doubt that this can be done.
I have never seen you predicting correctly
For the First Time 100% agree
I can't believe on our current form.
Szobo and Diaz not wery compatibile. But let's try it!
Great lineup. Konate and Endo both had a stinker vs Palace. Playing Gakpo in his favoured position makes complete sense. Nunez and Salah are also in terrible form but there’s no way Klopp will ever bench Salah. Unfortunately.
I agree with everyone apart from starting lucho instead of salah
come on you reds!!!!!!!!!
I’m excited for the game. I think I’m expecting us to lose but I’m optimistic as well.
Liverpool need to try scoring more outside the penalty area. They pass the ball too much and spend too long building up an attack. Look at the Champions League teams such as Dortmund, PSG and Barcelona to see how to play attacking football.
