August 8, 20187 yr I'm guessing Henderson starts the first few matches. Doesn't look like Klopp has been impressed with Fabinho's preseason.
August 8, 20187 yr I don't think there's any way Hendo starts on Sunday. He's only been back with the team for two days. I only saw bits of the preseason matches but I thought Fabinho looked good. He was really good in the United game. He's played the most minutes of any player in preseason too. Gini, Fab and Keita are my likely starters in MF. Mane, Salah, and Firmino to start up top. Firmino will come off at 60 for Sturridge. I'll go Clyne, Gomez, Virgil and Robbo as my defensive 4 with Migs starting in goal...

August 9, 20187 yr Ings loan is done. He'll be loaned this year and Southampton will pay 20 million GBP next summer. 18M guaranteed with 2M in add-ons and a 20% sell-on clause. That's not bad for a guy with his injury history. Michael Edwards getting 20 for Danny and 15 for Ward is some impressive business.
August 9, 20187 yr Good business if Sturridge stays healthy. The thought of Origi/Solanke being our backup striker has me worried. I guess we can slide Mo in the role if we have to.

August 10, 20187 yr No Lovren according to Klopp. Fabinho may not be available either. So probably Hendo and Gomez this weekend.
August 10, 20187 yr Damn. Well there goes that. Is Hendo ready to go? I thought he just got back with the team?
August 11, 20187 yr Im not good at the links....but nice video on twitter of the supporters giving karrius a nice ovation when he subbed in for becker
August 11, 20187 yr Author Lovren’s a fucking idiot. Hid an injury from the team for the last 3 weeks. Only tells them after the window closes We we need to replace his knucklehead in January.
August 11, 20187 yr I hope the first match lovren is available Klopp starts him and after the first minute subs him out and then slams a bag of dog shit on his head when he gets to the touchline.

August 11, 20187 yr That's a pretty bad breach of trust from Lovren, especially given how much Klopp has gone to bat for him. It does give Gomez the opening he needs to claim the spot. But we are incredibly thin at CB right now with Matip and Klavan also nursing injuries.
August 11, 20187 yr How does he get the bag down the the field? I like it though. He makes Lallana carry it in his mouth
August 11, 20187 yr Alisson officially the #13. Fabinho officially #3. Brewster has also been given the #24 shirt
August 12, 20187 yr Allison TAA, Gomez, VVD, Robertson Milner, Gini, Keita Salah, Bobby, Mane subs: karius, Clyne, Fabinho, Hendo, sturridge, lallana Edited August 12, 20187 yr by That Guy

August 12, 20187 yr Mo Salah! Mo Salah! Mo Salah! Running down the wings! Salah la la la la The Egyptian King! The prop bet for first score that wins you the least amount of money. Edited August 12, 20187 yr by mdmost

August 12, 20187 yr Where I think Alisson is going to make the biggest difference over Karius is the out passes and kicks. He dropped that right into Andy's lap.
August 12, 20187 yr Yep. His run to get into space was great as well. Did TAA find him? In any case, awesome build up and finish.
August 12, 20187 yr Keita is absolutely spectacular. You can tell TAA is going to be a star one day, but he's had a few miscues today. His FK attempt was pretty amazing, though.
