All ready for the match let's hope it's a good game from us. Shame Grujic is not starting. See klopp is not going for a natural striker up front also. Just wondered on the ed's thoughts on teams that play a false 9 type role, also the constant switching of positions for the front men. I know it's part of modern footy and does make it more difficult for defenders to mark, I just prefer a natural striker in the middle for the chances that fall.

{Ed002's Note - Klopp's criteria for players is based around them running very quickly. Firmini is better suited to that than the more traditional style of centre forward.}

I find firmino a little lightweight and slow still, hopefully he will get a bit stronger and quicker as season progresses.
Good technical ability but needs a bit more I think in this league.
