#lfc anticipate that the Anfield Road stadium development will take 22-23 months to complete and to open in time for the start of the football season. So with work expected to commence next summer/autumn - approval pending - it will be open for the start of the 2023-24 season.

Of the (up to) 7,000 additional seats, (up to) 1,800 will be premium.
The proposal would see #lfc's overall "official" capacity increase to 61,015, split by:

Main Stand - 20,676
Sir Kenny Dalglish Stand - 11,348
The Kop - 13,024
Anfield Road Stand - 15,967
The proposal includes a covered fan zone within the expanded stand itself. #lfc

A non-match day illustration/view of what Anfield Road would look like. #lfc
There will also be a new "Anfield Square" / Anfield Plaza allowing for further fan personalisation similar to what occurred with the expanded Main Stand.
173 executive lounge, 1,627 hospitality suite seats as per the seating plan. #lfc
Plans per stand "level". #lfc
And how this all fits together. #lfc
And an interesting note: the app references ... "widening the use of the pitch for other team sports (such as American Football and Gaelic games)". UEFA comps are played on pitches of 105m x 68m. Anfield is currently 101m x 68m. Could this widening also extend to future bids?

When thinking about who to play in DM for Leeds the word "role" is important. Let's have a think about the role:


A lot of people think Struijk isn't good enough in the build-up phase. Well, what does the DM do in build-up?

Here's a passing network from last season:


As you can see, Phillips' role in the Championship last season was largely facilitating build up in the wide area (on the left interestingly).

Per Wyscout, Phillips is putting up a figure of 7.03 long passes per 90 minutes and completes around 59%. Last season he was making 6.94 long passes per 90 mins at around 52%.

Per dribbles he's putting up similar numbers across both seasons (between 1 and 1.5 p90) and per duels he's putting up the same number (20 p90).

All of this suggests his role hasn't changed much over the last couple of seasons.
