Liverpool (A) - Pre Match Thread

[Georgian Maestro]

Interesting that the bookies have us favourites especially with our injuries

 

[Newman Noggs]

Not going to even try predicting the team for this one. The current atrition rate suggests that we'll lose at least one more player before the game.

 

[citytill1die84]

Ederson

Walker Stones Fernandinho Mendy

Gundogan

Mahrez B.Silva KDB Sterling

Aguero

Pretty much all we have left, everybody needs to be on their game. Come on blue boys :)

Most of the papers today saying how will city stop dippers forwards and stuff please tell me when did our forwards become so shit because no comments how they will stop ours

I wouldn't play Mendi tbh

His defending is ropey at best and he has the worrying habit of random and unexpected stray passes leading to opponents breaking on us. Against Liverpool this is conceded goals waiting to happen.

Fully fit mendy does offers considerable attacking options from the left, we become more lethal. He is a risk for sure but we can't counter salah and Arnold threat playing Conservative on the wings, we have to match the their threat by fielding our best attacking options.

Secondly, Angelino has improved massively and I would love to see him do well but as we all know Anfield is a very demanding atmosphere and stadium. It would be difficult for him to handle and sterling has a habit of trying things by himself especially when he doesnt trust the lb and ends up running into the crowd, loosing possession . He can't treat mendy the same way as mendy stature and quality demands respect.

We'll smash the ****s on Sunday. They will play it safe like they did last time we played there. They change their style when we play them and we don't. At least 3 or 4-1 for us with gabby giving that smug twat Virgil the run around. Not worried about playing these lot, can't wait.

It's the same old tired, biased shite from the red-stained media hacks. When the reality is this:

That's the spirit fella! You should do the team talk!

No reason why we can't be these, we're better than them, despite the injuries. All they have is luck, media support and some horrible high pitched whining in the stands.
