Don’t love that.
Alisson continues being out. The kick-off is delayed by 15 minutes. I’m assuming it’s due to everyone watching BTS’ comeback on Netflix.
No? Just me? Either way, the 15 minutes proved extremely useful in this household, allowing me to refill my coffee cup and get comfy.
First Half Et tu, James Milner?? In the first few minutes, Milner, playing for Brighton, nicks Hugo Ekitike, who looks to be in some considerable pain. That is not good for Liverpool — not just this game, but the rest of the season.
