Liverpool (a) pre-match thread

[mac]

plenty of defenders on the bench.that team can easly do these.there midfield ain't got much craft.just cloggers.come on city.

True but how many times do these cloggers pull off a world class goal.

 

[Rammy Blue]

Classic last 10 pages on here, never seen such a wide variety of opinions on a line up, lol.

 

[BlueMoonRisin’]

I'd like Mendy to concentrate more on defending than attacking today. First and foremost he's a LB, and my biggest concern is he must be on his game defensively.

 

[rnblade]

Would love to see Kun get one or two today, turning VAN Dick on his arse and smashing it in the top corner.

 

[GeorgeHeslop'sTackle.]

Wish i was

Me too. This is the one game game of the season that makes me feel so physically sick, beforehand & during, that I can’t actually watch or listen to it.

At half four, I’ll switch everything off and lie down in a darkened ‘till it’s all over.

 

[the plasterer]

Mahrez instead of sane, not for me, id play leroy every time against liverpool, really bad vibes bout this, got nasty feeling this will be over by half time, but as i said earlier, im the most pessimistic b#####d going so always fear a drubbing

 

[Franknorgrovesnephew]

True but how many times do these cloggers pull off a world class goal.

hopefully not today.

 

[Lancet Fluke]

Because,more often than not,both think defending is something someone else should do.

Well then I know we don't exactly have lots of options at left back at the moment but I'd still rather sacrifice Mendy than Leroy even if it means playing Zinchenko or Danilo at left back.

 

[super_city_si]

If we can keep our heads we should win. It's just when we panic with them running at us at a hundred miles an hour.

 

[tommo74]

Oh well not long to go now ladies and gentlemen, and in 2 hours or so we will see if Pep or Klopp made the right call, hopefully it's Pep, couldn't stand to see that gurning twa* Klopp doing his fist bumps

Standard

 

[Chi-town blues]

Majority of Napoli's attack is always down the left side though, Ancelotti has favoured it in every game this season so far. Trent just had a stinker of a game.

Would argue he's gone for Lovren for physicality, the rest of their lineup, particularly that midfield, shows they intend to bully us.

I don’t think dippers have too many skilled attacking players. They are huff and puff till 70 mins kind of team

 

[pudge]

You should check my lineup. It has Mendy in it. Albeit I pointed out it should be Zee. I knew what he was going to do. I was simply pointing out what he should have done

Not to worry, you'd figure out the difference in due time .;)

You quite obviously didn't know he wasn't to be in the sqaud, which was the point, as you derided that notion from another poster.

He's back to his usual standing now.

Nah, that isn’t happening. Well, I don’t think so anyway. Mendy’s whole game is about attacking, we’ve all seen how devastating he can be. If Pep wanted Mendy to reign his attacking play in a bit, he would have played Sane in front of him.

 

[tolmie's hairdoo]

As long as we don't play like we did first half in Hoffenheim.

I think we might still see Mahrez on the left.

 

[SWP's back]

Crazy not to have Kompany and Otamendi in.
We need leaders.

Would have been crazy playing either.

 

[Dr Jacoby]

Mahrez, Mendy and Sterling are the biggest worries for me.

I hope Sterling doesn’t ‘freeze’ again, and Mendy & Mahrez are at the proverbial races.

 

[Chi-town blues]

As long as we don't play like we did first half in Hoffenheim.

I think we might still see Mahrez on the left.

Has he ever played on the left ?

 

[Franknorgrovesnephew]

only one I worry about today is Mahrez he's going to have to do a lot of tracking bk to help walker and up to now ain't seen much ov that from him.but hopefully today will be that day.

 

[blue b4 the moon]

Come on 7th game I've watched in our regular hotel in Greece & won the lot all away, don't blow it tonight lads.

BM can fund my trips, I'm not too proud to take a handout ;)
