I did think it was risky, but I counted on a strong and fast start, which is what we got.
Not so keen on Konate playing so far, he looks like he's finding Ronaldo and Rashford a bit too hot to play against but anyway, survive and got some clinical finishing in (from Keita of all people) and then a stretched leg poke from Jota (but Milner would have gotten to it anyway) so we're in a good lead -- even without our best players playing all that well. Might be imagining it but surprised we're focusing attacks from the left -- maybe we don't want to expose TAA too much.
Millie injured himself but we're probably even more dangerous with Curtis Jones on anyway, just not sure about defending heh... Salah also scored the 3rd goal already, Ronaldo got himself carded (could even have been a red!) so now I just need to sweat on 5 corners (damn my corner selection) plus also avoiding they score 4 goals... would be a shame to lose this bet on a lack of corners though heh.
Great so far at HT, since other Sunday game results not good for me. Only have myself to blame for believing in Brentford, worse for believing in Spurs.
I think Salah and Keita were influential players in Liverpool's victory.
Btw, too bad your bet lost on corners.
