Liverpool (A) - Sun 8th Feb, 16:30 | PL | Pre-Match Thread

[The Mighty Marmoush]

Afternoon all
3 1 to us tomorrow
Very confident

I'll have a bit of what your drinking

 

[Eaststander1]

Even they can beat Spurs rather than draw (albeit at home).

Yep, it was only 10 man Spurs though ...

Very likely that we lose this in uninspiring fashion tomorrow and wind up 3rd, just three points ahead of United and nine points behind Arsenal. We all need to not be complete mard arses about it and trust that with a full squad for the rest of the season we'll be pushing Arsenal as much as we can and well clear of 5th.

Full squad ??? How often has that happened this season, or is likely to happen in what's left of it ???

Seems to me, given how many times some of these players have been injured, that most of the 'mard arses' are lay on the treatment table every week!

 

[Goater101]

We actually went away to anfield with this wing partnership last season. Nightmare stuff

You can also be a realist.

It's sport- at the end of the day who really gives a fuck in what it means in the grand scheme.

Anything that isn't 100% vital to our lives- if one can't at least try to have fun with and enjoy- what is the point?

If it brings one down, invites negativity and causes them to be a plodding, predictable, miserable sod- that's their choice.

They get all the luck.

 

[NordStrike]

Home and away?

Everywhere. All comps.

 

[NordStrike]

and how does the (current) scouse team stack up on the same basis..?

Van Dijk
Gravenberch

sadly both Chelsea and rags benefited from manager change. I bet they are still quite a few points behind us if they stick with Amorim-Maresca, but not now.

our run is very bad since the Sunderland game, 6 games 1-4-1 record, and a draw vs Liverpool too is the most likely. the only win against one of the worst PL side ever in Wolves.

its time to raise our game and stop the bullshit talks after games that we are still in it, we dont give up lot of games left etc, we need to put together few wins soon even to get into CL let alone making a worthy title race.

I can accept a bad result at Anfield as that is what we get there usually, but also want to see Pep not being outfoxed and make us look surprised when we face quick counters. also avoid any 2d half collapse, both tactically if opponent switches tactics and also mentally we need to play for 90+ ins not only 45.

 

[BluestBlue]

Marmoush Semenyo
OR Cherki
Nico G Rodri
Ait Nouri Guehi Khusonov Nunes
Donnarumma

Haaland, Foden and Bernardo don’t deserve to play.

I’d choose OR over Reinjders because he’s a better duel winner and will overlap Marmoush anyway, he can come in with Foden to get a goal.

 

[lasereyes]

Like Simons did last weekend. Guarantee he’ll be non existent against the rags today.

Spurs were complete shit last weekend. We shot ourselves in the foot in addition to one of the worst ref decisions in recent memory.

The BBC bringing the sympathy angle into it about the death of Jota suggesting that football isn't as important to Liverpool players this season because of the grief they suffered and are still suffering.

Diogo Jota: Former Liverpool goalkeeper Caoimhin Kelleher says performances and results at his old club are not quite as important at Anfield season after Portugal winger's death last summer

Former Liverpool goalkeeper Caoimhin Kelleher says performances and results at his old club are not quite as important this season following the death of Diogo Jota.

www.bbc.co.uk

Hardly a mention of Jota near the beginning of the season when they won their first few matches.

 

[Goater=Legend]

Is Ake injured? I thought he might of took him off midweek to play LB tomorrow

 

[simon23]

this game will show what squad we have....lets see how the likes of Reijnders, Alt nouri, Nunes Semenyo, cherki play against this lot away at anfield

it will tell us a lot

the result is not relevant ...its about how they perform as individuals and as part of the team

 

[Mike S]

I've a funny feeling if Haaland scores one tomorrow he'll go on to score two. But will he score one ?

At my age I get a lot of funny feelings....
