What a negative starting line up!

I dont know what I was expecting but I didnt expect to see none of the attacking players starting. Guessand or Malen would have made much more sense than emi B or mcginn. Even if it was only one of the two as SJM does have his plus sides in a game like today.

Guessand was hooked at half time the last day and Malen might aswell have been.

The big call was whether to bring Elliot in on the right but can see why it looks like he is going with McGinn out there. McGinn probably only has 60-70 mins in him today after the Scotland games so there will be changes.

Hopefully Bogarde means 5 at the back.

I only said one of those too because we know Emery is allergic to playing players until they have been at the club for 3 years.
Great manager but im starting to think hes losing the plot.

I'm going to feel a bit sheepish and have come back on with my tail between my legs if this line up proves me wrong.

We're either gonna smash this lot or we'll struggle to score.

Sancho was never going to start. Been in exile all summer at Man. United so his match fitness for start of games won't be what we need it to be. I think the plan is he starts at Brentford.

I am however very disappointed we're not starting Elliott. He has been around the Liverpool squad, played in the community shield (on top of under 21s tournament in June/early July) and has been training at Bodymoor the last two weeks so not to put him in ahead of player we've been trying to sell for last 18 months sums up the muddled thinking we've had lately.

Saying that Buendia does have a ridiculously good scoring record v Everton!

I can see this being the same as Brentford if not worse. Starting at snail pace, conceding then we have plenty of possession but not much pace to open them up and then we concede another in the second half.
