Liverpool (a) pre-match thread

[rnblade]

They’re guaranteed a penalty at the very least.
The media wankfest and FA loving of that bunch of candle waving pricks is sickening. You’ll see the worst officiating outside the Chumps League on display Sunday. They’ll be going down like there’s a sniper in the stands at the slightest brush from us, yet Merlin,Kun,Razza and Leroy with be continually scythed to the turf with no recourse except an occasional free kick to appease the cameras.
Our visits to this theatre of depravity and inbreds isn’t good. We need to be ruthless in front of goal and take our opportunities. No keystone cop style defending as we occasionally do against these twats.
We know they come out at a million miles an hour, bolster the midfield and make them chase the game.
They think they were robbed against Napoli, both macmanamanamanaman and the cnut Owen said they will be ready to beat city.
If we get a win there, B&Q better have a big supply of candles.

Wonder if Mendy plays will pep put sterling on the left like at arsenal? I really think pep will look to try something different and maybe sane will be the fall guy. Hope not.

Switch Sterling and Sane, Sterling will be need to cover Mendy if he plays, Sane can cut in a curl into the top corner, soak up their first 30 mins keep the ball hit them in the break, we have a top bench to bring on especially if KDB can come on last 15 mins.

Could have sworn I was there when we beat them at home 5-0 and we were winning before the sending off. The media dismiss/ignore that game.

433 tried and tested Chelsea away performance required. Anything else and we’ll get turned over.

 

[yankblue]

It's a shame they won the league in September because they look pretty vulnerable for this one

433 is the best bet

What's the record page count for a pre-match thread?

Pep refuses to consider the idea of playing more defensively at Anfield. "It is boring and secondly our team is not built that way, I will try to convince our players to be ourselves, even at Anfield."

And so when Fernandinho gets overrun we will concede and thus lose. A second pivot does the job and he's played with that formation multiple times.

imagine the size of the post-match one if/when something dodgy happens.

OK, I give in, where was the Mahrez being magic bit at - serious question as I saw nothing in that clip at all

Here you go then hope this appeases you..

Play David deeper with Fernandinho. Key is to get the ball wide like we did first half at the Etihad in April.

 

[BlueMedic]

For me, Fernandinho & Silva x2 in midfield is a must. They always start fast & we need as much control as we can achieve in that midfield area. Also there is less turnover to the opposition with those 3 in terms of keeping possession, aids stem their counter attack potential.

Sane also should start, always does damage to them.

Outside of that it's more challenging.

(Mendy for Zinco if he's fit)

Going for 3-2 to City at the home of the 2018/19 champions with Kun getting the winner

It's a shame to see such a gifted footballer on the bench every week but how do you leave Sterling out on current form.

On the bench every week? It's called a team which you rotate do you not...
Think you should have a butchers at this for the times he's sat on the bench..

Or are you wumming?

That says he has only started 2/7 Premier League games and 0/2 Champions League games.

So I'm right then? Didn't realise it was wumming to state facts.

Three at the back Mendy and Walker either side, pack the midfield. We will create something just need to make sure we take our chances and don’t get over run with the dippers headless chicken football.
