Liverpool (a) pre-match thread

[Danamy]

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

PMT (Pre-match tension) has a lot to answer for

I do take that point but to be honest I would rather play like we did last season and have Sane making the runs, and the left back be more conservative.

It seems we have had to drop Sane and move sterling from his favoured flank, IMO, to accomodate Mendy and his runs. Not sure if its a price worth paying. Can Mendy not just play more conservatively?

I do think though that having Raz on the left assists with the defensive side, Leroy isn’t biggest fan of tracking back.

It’s a weird conundrum moving forward though when in reality Mendy and Leroy want to occupy the same space.

Can see an early yellow on Mendy in dangerous freekick territory, hope he keeps his cool.

Good team out. Let's hope we go more than half an hour without conceding first.

Can see Sterling scoring tonight

Just in, did the nobheads attack our bus again?

I'm not sure why mahrez is in. Hope he proves me wrong But I don't see what he will offer by cutting back and crossing with his left to Aguero. Van Dyk will love it.

Gonna be a long 90 minutes this. Called it weeks ago that Sane wouldn’t play. Raheem will get slaughtered today because he is being played in his unfavoured position. I think pep tries too hard to be clever sometimes. Quite rightly gets the praise for the incredible football we play but he isn’t untouchable.

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.

If he does freeze, let's hope he is subbed quickly

 

[SWP's back]

It was me who said that. Well, I actually said they have one of the best front threes in the world.

If you disagree with that, I think it says more about your knowledge of football than my credentials as a Top Blue to be honest.

Hey ho. Hope we win today, don't think we will, but you never know.

You were talking shite then and you’re talking shite now.

I’m another that won’t bother with that shite podcast again either.

Good line up
