 but ensure that they avoid fatigue and being that now we are coming back to the Champions League group stages and the Europa group stages. So it's a game that we are going to have a lot of matches coming week in, week out and players up to be fit. But let's start with Liverpool are starting their game against Newcastle this afternoon at Anfield and for them it is a return of Alisson who is actually not ready. But it doesn't look to be a problem for Liverpool so far. I mean, when you have Virgil van Dijk man it's just kind of meets everything because Gomez is back for them. And him partnering with Virgil van Dijk is it makes us stronger defence and of course they also have Matic whom they have extended his contract. So they are kind of safe. But I think the bigger problem with Liverpool right now is Mo Salah and Mane. Of course you know what happened last weekend as they played together. And it's something that is quickly becoming a problem for them because if Salah cannot give the ball to Mane then it means also Mane will be hesitant to give the ball to Salah. And this has been the forward line that has been most enviable in the world after Neymar, Andres and Messi. Now looking at it from that perspective I think Newcastle United cannot provide much of difficulty for them. Of course they won against Tottenham we cannot deny that but their defensive play will be easy for Liverpool to break. Of course they have the likes of Binyo who are the protective shield for Adrian. Although Adrian has also been making quality saves also. So I think this is a game for Liverpool to lose. It's on their cards if they just turn up whether Salah doesn't give the ball to Mane. Keita is 13 also. The question will be it is a positive rivalry or a negative rivalry and how will it impact the team going forward? Because we have already seen it. I think it's a positive one because the reaction is what I can say was negative. But the rivalry is okay. I don't understand why when people come out and say Salah was selfish. If you are top-notch striker then you have to know that. Openda let's be honest here. The first instance Salah was to give the ball to Femino. He took the chance himself missed. The second time Mane was in a better position. He took the chance and missed again. Now if you're talking about a team it doesn't matter whether you're leading three goals to Neil. That is selfishness, pure selfishness. And if you compare last season and this season the fact that Mane had 22 goals. Mo Salah had 22 goals. Of course Salah wants to be the only kingpin in the team. And the problem is it's going to become toxic over time. Because these two people will be trying to get you past each other. But one question is, why are people not talking about the goals Salah scored against Arsenal? It was a wonder goal. Why are they not saying that why did they not pass to Mane? He went himself and scored. So to be a top-notch striker you have to be sure with yourself. Of course it was a bad day. I can say that. But what if he scored? Then people would have been around praising him. He's gone out and has pleaded and scored. This is the thing. Let's go back to the top three strikers that we have talked about. Messi, Shores and Neymar. It's a time when Messi had a penalty. And Shores was looking for one goal so that he can win the Golden Boot. What did Messi do? He knocked the ball for Shores to score. He didn't take the penalty. That's the kind of player that Messi is. Of course Salah is being compared with them right now. So if you're talking about Salah being selfish, you're talking about those opportunities that are clear cut. If somebody is free and you're tight, people are getting tight on you because you're the player that everyone wants to mark. Manai is free. Just keep the ball. That's all you're saying. And if he takes the chance and scores, okay, we'll celebrate. It's all up to you. When you're on the pitch, it's not like as fans watching from the stands, that guy is in motion and he sees a chance that I can take. And he did it. And I cannot blame him. And next time trust me, he will do that. He will do it. Because he's a top-notch striker and he has shown us that he can score from those kinds of situations. So I think it's a rivalry that we are going to see how it pans out. It will be Manchester City a team that doesn't have selfishness at the moment. If Aguero sees Bernardo Silva is in a better position, he gives the ball to Bernardo Silva. What about Staling? Of course it's a different game. We all know this chasing Manchester City, right? So of course, despite them being two points ahead, they know Manchester City is the team to beat. So I think at the moment they should try and get every goal, score every goal they can, take every chance they can. And if Salam is missing that chance, means if man is in a better position to score that goal, let him score. Because if you have toxicity within your team, it's going to be a problem for them to challenge Manchester City. And that's the end goal. The end goal is to try and win the league this season for them. So I don't think that will be helping when man has reached his hands. A big one for Liverpool, there for Jürgen Klopp and he is going to deal with those two players. But we have got also a game that will be coming over at five. That is Manchester United versus Leicester City. And Manchester United will be without seven key players. That is Paul Pogpa, Anton Machial. Luxio, Diogo de Lorde, Eric Bailey, Jesse Lingardt and Aaron Guanbisaka. Big problem. When we look at those names, all of them out on the field. They are not actually even on the bench. They are actually in the clinic. They are actually at the hope of being treated. How does this work on for social? How is he going to name a team that is going to come and go against Leicester considering that Leicester is actually top on their game at the moment? Of course, what will be a big problem for United will be that defence and not having a show at the left back position and missing the England international one, will be a big problem, especially knowing that we have a very fast player in Vadi who can maybe even try to just remain as a lone ranger up front so as to get the balls in from his own backs. We saw him scoring a very, very good goal in the last round of fixtures. So for United it is high time now for the likes of Young to step up and ensure that you are playing at home. You are the 12th man in the fans and try to show why you are wearing the United shirt. If they can't be able to do that then I don't think maybe they want only to stay on the job because if they cannot... If they cannot rise up to the occasion. Now it is actually not playing for the manager and playing for the club at the centre. Exactly, exactly because January is here and if you are not going to get points at home against the teams like Leicester then trust me you are drawing your own downfall and for the manager also. I think Leicester is a team to envy at the moment. Look at James Madison in there, Tim Lemons in there, you have got Jamie Vadi a man who is very clinical but having said all that I think Manchester United have a better record against Leicester and yes we know they are missing over 8 players. This is a chance for those people who have been saying he has been giving the ball away so much yet that is not really even the case but of course this is a chance for the likes of Fred Mako Soho will be slotted back in the left back position as Young moves to the right. This is a chance for these players who haven't had enough time to play but Leicester City will be a team to heart Manchester United more so Jamie Vadi and Madison can get the ball to Jamie Vadi putting the ball in the channel as Jamie Vadi is willing to run Magua is not the fastest man on earth actually Young is not saying actually one of the big problems this afternoon you will see Magua having a very very hard time going up against Vadi because you watched the last time out in England consider three goals at home against a team that we did not expect even to score a goal I think it's going to be more the bigger question between the two centrebacks Lindelof and Magua has been about covering and who takes charge because Magua wants to take charge but he doesn't inform Victor Lindelof Victor Lindelof loves falling back so I think today it's about if Magua chooses to man Jamie Vadi let him get close to him don't let him spin because the moment he spins you cannot get him then you cannot get him exactly big match there between Manchester United and Leicester City that match will be at 5pm but also you have got big matches at 5pm Tottenham vs Christo Palace got Wolfampton Wanderers vs Chelsea and then Norwich City vs Manchester City but also this became between Tottenham and Christo Palace how do you think that's going to happen this is a Derby London Derby and you know the story of Derby is having Christo Palace having the main man back in Zaha I think will give them problems especially that now Newcastle did show Christo Palace that actually you can get points away to Tottenham it will be a game that if Ericksen is going to be slated back into the team see what he can bring into the table but if he cannot work his magic then I think Tottenham might be able to struggle a little bit but still but still maybe go on and get the three points that they require this is not the start that Mauricio Pachettino expected for his team and yes we took him about the team but finished that to Liverpool and Manchester City two clubs that were so good last season I think Dombelle will be back for them this afternoon and that is a very big plus in the midfield and Ericksen must play today because breaking down Christo Palace would be easy you can go back to the game against Manchester United how Christo Palace lined up they were playing with one man up front all the ten men were behind the ball that means breaking them down is quite complex so I think tonight is a game whereby Christian Ericksen must play that killer pass and take their chances if Tottenham do get them because they are now in the position right now they need to catch up to Manchester City and Liverpool because if they don't do that then we will see the likes of Leicester City continuing to enjoy the fourth place they are in today when you are a big team these are the kind of matches you don't want to go against considering that Christo Palace can take points away from you we will play against Manchester City we will play against Liverpool Man United also and this game is going to be one tough match but also a big match is this a test for Frank Lampard this afternoon a big one especially knowing what the wolves have done before and the team that is available for selection for Frankie then I think it's going to be a very big test if we can be able to pass it then to this afternoon and I think now the young lads are catching up with the big boys of the Premier League but that being said Frankie has a very very good good squad although ya maybe we can see that Maison Mount is playing very well at the moment Abram is getting the goals that we are envying and maybe a few I think Rudiga should be able to come back exactly for them this afternoon and that will add a little bit of experience in that defense and a few other players that will be will be game changers in that game so I think if Frankie and the young lads give their all then they might be able to pass the test although I still doubt you I would like to hear his prediction on that though I think there is no doubt the fact that Franklin but has had a TSC team that he is very young but Tim Ibrahim has been impressive so far he is chasing the likes of Staling and of course Aguero but the bigger chance of tonight will be all eyes will be on walls because they have had three points and none of them have been draws so today are they going for a draw or are they going for a win 160 years at the Molenix stadium that means they want to mark the day historically on the good books or over win so and they will be missing Boli I think they will be missing Boli who was red-cutted so this is a game whereby Chelsea must be on top of game they don't have Mgolo counter but the cover cheese should be coming back for them but I think this is a game wolves will be chasing I think if I was to go for a prediction 2-1 in favor of wolves and I think also Emerson limped in the game the last international game he limped off for Italy but maybe he might be able to come back they have an option but also it is a good option also a good replacement but the biggest problem with Chelsea has been they have been letting in money goals because they have scored six goals and they have conceded nine the second highest in the league that has been their biggest problem I think it is Rodga coming back the question I will ask is what is Antonia Rodga going to add into that difference that might be a change this afternoon actually it is just the experience because these young lads and especially that now that they are missing can't in that midfield they need that leadership in the defense so if they are going to get him then he can be able to organize the defense and maybe the defense midfield although they don't have Goloka who was actually playing so well in that position until the day from Italy came in and changed this position this season gave Jojino his right free deal he has been playing very well this season but I think what Antonia Rodga will add in this team is more of maturity because if you look at Katzouma and Klintztersen both of them are very young the best combination for Frank Lampard in the centre defense is Klintztersen and Rodga Zuma his reaction sometimes are a bit off and then his pace Rodga is a bit faster than Zuma so that will help the team and I still think although maybe you haven't been on this panel we should talk about the biggest misses of the summer how do you let David Luiz go to ask now that's a big miss in the last day of the you don't have a chance to sign you don't have a chance to sign and then you are bringing back in Zuma who was the heir up wrong actually he came back Lampard is going to make his own team in his own way it's okay but you don't have a chance to sign so keep David Luiz who is experienced a player who has been tested tried and tested in the APL he has proven himself that's a player you want to keep even if you won't play him in every game at least keep him in that team you can see David Luiz coming into the ask the defense what he has done is a bit of that calmness even if he did whatever he did to Mo Salah actually that plan was so soft it was so soft it's okay but he does have a bit of calmness that maturity whereby I know when to go and if he gets a chance to take a free kick you know how he does it it's somebody who can hurt you in more than one way his long balls are better than Kat Zuma do that a big one there for Chelsea this afternoon this evening actually as they will be away to Wolves and we will see how that match will go considering that for the last two seasons Old Rampton Wanderers have been a team to watch and a marvel to watch as they play big match also coming at Karo Road between Norwich City and Manchester City Manchester City the only loads lampot and it's big news it's an injury crisis for Manchester City actually that's fun those are fanatics because they are very very able guys who can replace Lapote in that defense actually even Fernandinho can play in that central defense so for them and the game that Guardiola plays being an attacking one I don't think they will be having a lot of problems Chelsea is in that team the biggest team with Lapote is that he can carry the ball forward he is the defender in the EPL last season he was the central defender who carried the ball highest he has accurate passes and is very fast also so I think that is a big miss John Stones can play the ball but not as good as Lapote so he can fuel in the gap for a while again they are playing Norwich City and they will dismantle them of course but there is that man one man called Kuki who I think is one of the most lethal strikers currently in European football they should be able to watch out for the guy because if they give him space then he will be able to nikem na ago as we wind up the big game will be tomorrow also between FC Bournemouth and Everton the signings of Everton do they give you confidence that Everton is a team to watch this season they are performing the likes of Iwobi they are carrying the the ball for Everton as it stands so it's a time we give them a chance and see how they are gelling under the manager and then the big game tomorrow between Watford and Arsenal big changes for Watford you fire you bring back they have a chance against Arsenal and they don't stand a chance I think the manager will take time to rebuild the team he doesn't have Troy Dini but a big part of his gameplay so this is a game for Arsenal that is already a part but you guys don't have like AZ I don't have like AZ but right now I have a young man and Nicolas Pepe Pepe can play from the right and then we have Rhys Nelson who can come in from the left and then if we have a Sebalos to sublet those balls and Zaka Zaka should be taking off some time in the coming weeks but we have Agenduzi who has also shown that he can perform in that midfield so what has been a miss for us for a very very long time and the manager is trying to solve right now is the defensive game of Arsenal we got a good a left back in Tianewiz now come back into full training and Belarine is also back from injury back into full training so if we get those guys fully fit in the next 2-3 weeks then I think we should be able to see a different game how do you think that match will go? what for Arsenal? we want to win for Arsenal that one goal is for that Kutaw Majozi thanks a lot Samuil Mananjuguna and Fredo Penda for coming here for the touch and that has been the end of the fans on here on the touch and as we promised you we'll be speaking to the president of the Kenya rugby union to tell us some of the good news that they have had in the rugby circle so far for now that's the end of the fans we're taking a short commercial break when we come back it is our big interview here on the touch
