Loved Klopp's analogy today of Hull coming to steal our points and getting angry about it

Liverpool play like they have been, this should be a comfortable win. Lets see if they can start to make it easier against the 'lesser' teams and continue this run.

Liverpool 3 - 0 Hull.

Pagnell too scared to make a prediction, I see. Probably pretending he's busy using open source Photoshop stand-in GIMP to copy and paste images of rumoured Bake Off host Natasha Kaplinsky's head onto Xena: Warrior Princess fan-art, I expect.

Liverpool 3-4 Hull City

Comes in to troll a Liverpool thread without even bothering to post in your own one. Says it all.

Genuinely think Hull might win. And I hate Liverpool.

As I said before, this game could set the tone for rest of the season. Beating so called "big teams" is good but if we can't beat teams like Hull we won't finish anywhere near top 4. Since this game is at Anfield, I think we will win but not by a huge margin.

Reds please just win not arsed how we do it. If we can build up a decent home form this season we will be challenging for that top 4 spot. 2-0

 

[merseyboyred]

Gonna be sat in the new moan for the first time to experience the inevitable deflating loss in a game we'll have enough of to win by a couple.

Karius will make his Premier League debut tomorrow. It’s a crushing blow for Simon Mignolet , who had hoped to return. #lfc (James Pearce)

Was just going to post that as I'm just in! Interesting.

I think it is harsh on Mignolet based on this season alone. Derby didn't trouble Karius much but you could see his style of keeping is much different than Mignolet. Very good footwork for a keeper and does not hesitate to come for the ball. In terms of his keeping I think there are mistakes in him too (not as much as Mignolet last season!) but his overall style of play is better suited for us.

Yes and I suppose if your going to bed him in for the Premier League, now's the time to do it with matches at home to Hull then off to Swansea afterwards where you'd expect Liverpool to have the vast majority of possession with the odd shot or two coming in to test him. Klopp will probably want to get more game time in for him and to see if he can gel with the back four.

It is harsh on Mignolet who has done fine this season so far and produced saves against Spurs and Leicester that had he not done, may have changed the results of those games. He though he still doesn't promote confidence in his abilities however amongst the fans, whilst Karius does seem to have that natural German confidence.

Quite confident actually but I would have wanted to see Sturridge. At home to Hull, all of Mané, Sturridge, Coutinho and Firmino should play.

Sturridge has a knock I believe so wouldn't be risked.

Lallana scores the opener, he's in some form this season.

 

[Stevencc]

This should end up being 5 or 6 nil given the way Liverpool have started and the red card.

 

[snortingfrogs]

Two red cards in two matches for Hull lol.

3-0 now =)

I hope we have a sell-on clause on Mane.

I remember soton fans saying Mane was not consistent

 

[Bilo]

I remember soton fans saying Mane was not consistent

Which he wasn't.

First, he's yet to disprove that. Second, being consistent for Liverpool doesn't disprove that he was inconsistent for Southampton.

He's been fantastic though. We missed him horribly against Burnley and today shows why.

 

[G-Dragon]

When Mane goes to AFCON he will be a big big miss.

 

[Jamie_SFC]

17 games without a goal last season pretty much proves that consistency was a bit of an issue doesn't it?

Hopefully it's not the case anymore.

 

[Stevencc]

First shot for Hull - goal.

 

[Pagnell]

Hull's comeback lasted long.

 

[G-Dragon]

What a goal Coutinho!

 

[SALTIRE]

A few games ago I would have agreed, but the others are stepping up at the moment when he isn't.
