line up v Norwich: Kelleher, Bradley, Konate, Gomez, Tsimikas, Keita, Jones, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Gordon, Minamino, Origi. Subs: Adrian, Henderson, Jota, Robertson, Phillips, Morton, Balagizi.
I'm sure the clause is "whenever" he makes a start, not just this specific game. Only reason it is brought up is because Derby are desperate for cash and need it from where ever they get it.
What do you know, Thiago is injured...again... A 'world class' display followed by an injury - the story of this guy's career.
He's averaged 38 appearances for the last 6 years, 5 of which are in a league with only 34 league games, but yeah, he's always missing games due to injury.
It'll be interesting to see who plays the holding role today. Jones , Ox and Keita are all more attackers rather than defenders. Jones perhaps?
To be fair it does look like Jones is sitting deeper... maybe Klopp doesn't trust Naby's positioning awareness or something.
Working it down the left in order to cross it in for a Gordon header are not the tactics I expect to get another goal in this one...
This RB is really just out to lunch quite often... Jones and Gordon have been good. Ox is not impressing me at all. You'd think this is the kind of match he could really lead the attack for. Why do Jones, Mina, and a 16 year old look more confident/capable than him?
Rookie mistake by Bradley gives Norwich a PK, which Kelleher saves. Jones almost scores on the other end.
