Liverpool (a) pre-match thread

[Millwallawayveteran1988]

We have been better than them for the last 8 years or so and not won. Hopefully them being seen as the greatest side since football was invented this season will help reverse the trend today.

For a team that has won nothing they are being praised very highly , Souness even said they are the best Liverpool side since they last won a title (unfortunately my memory fades after 30 years ) and yet when our team is discussed we will only be considered a great team if we win back to back titles and dominate English football for a decade. Those seven Premier league games the Dippers have played this season must have been quite momentous occasions.

I strongly believe the players mentality will be a lot stronger this time at Anfield compared to recent visits there.

Last season's games couldn't have gone any worse, with the bad ref decisions and caving in for 15-20 minutes in the first half, conceding quick goals etc.

I firmly believe our players will be relaxed this time and will play their normal game and will come away with a decent win or at least a draw, but definitely not a loss.

Liverpool don’t worry me at all. The shite refereeing decisions on the other hand....

 

[SWP's back]

Laporte and Stones didn’t fare well against Lyon, I think one or both of Kompany and Otamendi has to play

Otamendi fucked up leading to goals in two of our last three games against Liverpool.

I’d have him on the bench for this. He’s not overly press resistant.

I'm really looking forward to this game. Its going to be a fantastic games of football regardless of the result. Hopefully we win. If we cut out the silly errors we will win*








*Big doubts about the ref shafting us. Not just the big decisions, but all the soft free kicks they will get when we breathe near them whilst they kick lumps out of us and get away with it

Along with a fair ref we simply need to be mentally tough and cut out the sloppiness, Barcelona of yesteryear they are not.

Looking forward to today feel very confident we will come away with something from the game, COME ON CITY

I feel confident too mate: )

To be honest mate, Mendys defending since he joined has been well below average. The thought of Salah 1v1 with Mendy makes me nervous.

I agree, Mendy is so good going forward, but we've seen little evidence that he's a competent left back. Needs to work hard on his defending TBH.
