The Prem is so open, most teams have a chance of being top 4 by the end of the season - at least a good 7 or 8 as of this moment, not counting Chelsea who will surely start firing again at some point. We're in with a shot, is all.
I agree with this, the PL is so open this year. I genuinely believe we'll get top 4, I think Klopp will be the difference

First shot on target 55 mins, we just dont play to Big Bens strengths.
Or perhaps, Big Ben is not able to play to the teams strengths? IF Sturridge is able to get fully match fit and stay injury-free, he'll be the no.1 choice, probably heading the attack by himself. Big Ben might find himself warming the subs bench more often than not. But that's one big IF.

Benteke doesn't seem to be the best player for the game that ultimately we want to play.
Look so impressive with Firmino in the false 9 role, with Coutinho, Lallana, Milner, Can and Lucas. The pressing against City shown great signs for going forward.
Benteke doesn't really press well. Maybe he will add it into his game if Jurgen wants/ asks him to.

6 wins and 3 draws in 10 games is certainly the type of form that should get us into the top four. Even better when you consider we've played City, Chelsea and Tottenham away in amongst all that, without, at times, Henderson, Sakho, Sturridge, Ings, Coutinho, Firmino - all with the exception of maybe Ings you'd have to say are our first choices for their positions.
Never thought I would say this but really looking forward to Henderson coming back as I think he offers us options / variation in midfield.. Him and Sturridge returning will give the team a lift.. even if its only 30-45 mins to begin with.. Quite excited about the next few months if we can keep injury free and go on a good run, Can't wait to see Flanno back after what seems like 20 years of injury's. Lol
we are certainly looking a lot healthier thats for sure
Since he came we have took 11 from 18, UTD - 12 , Spurs - 12, Arsenal - 11, City - 11 so we are making the right kind of noises - in that time period we also went to Spurs, City and Chelsea so to get 11 from 6 is pretty good going considering the opposition.
We now have Hendo on his way back which will be a huge boost for us, he will flourish under Klopp, and if and its a big IF we can keep Sturridge fit then we will make a big stridge up the table I am sure of that. If you compare Sturridge/Benteke/Ings with Utd/Arsenal/Chelsea/ then we certainly have the best options up top when fit
