Karius doesn’t make that save . Would have just stayed on the line.
Alison who was well positioned and reacted immediately to the danger by coming forward and spreading himself closing the striker to shoot with ease.
He’s pulled from some good saves for us this season.

As for our performance, it was up there with best this season, we totally bossed a very good team . I’m hoping we carry this intensity on Sunday .

I think it bodes really well for the future that we can play that well with Keita, Shaq, and Fabinho on the bench with Gomez out injured. From my side the approach wasn't the same as last year, we were much more measured, didn't try and blitz them straight off the bat.

Wasn't perfect ... but hopefully Sunday we will be. However, see it as a very different game as Man U will park the bus and do nothing with the ball.

Apparently Matip was taken to hospital for a 'precautionary' checkup on his shoulder based on his previous injuries. He hasn't been playing a lot of footy recently, so they just wanted to check on things .... no sure what the outcome of it is though.

Maybe this is dure to the new head physio from Man City? Get some of those famous Guardiola horse tranquilsers into him and he's ready to go?

Good effort but the ball was kicked straight at him.

Can't embed this but it shows & explains the movement of Allison. It was hit straight at him because he positioned himself so it would be.

F*cking hell. Matip out for up to 6 weeks. Nightmare with the run of games we've got coming up!

Think it's quite likely we'll see Fabinho playing centre back against Man U. We'll still do them I think but just when we get started 2 players out ...

I’m not saying it wasn’t good work from him, he did well to put the striker off and yes in the context of the situation it was a big save but by no means spectacular.

Was spectacular in what it meant in the context of the result!

Trent in a moon boot, looks like we will be missing him also...trust our fucking luck to cop 3 injuries to defenders in a week. Fuck knows what's going on with Clyne. Milner at right back it is.

 

[Freakzilla]

Probable Liverpool team vs Manchester United:

Allison

Milner
Lovren
VVD
Robertson

Fabinho
Keita
Wijnuldam

Salah
Firmino
Mane

 

[Freakzilla]

Clyne is fit and will either start or be on the bench.
