Liverpool (A) - Pre Match Thread

[Tricky_Trev]

Too slow through the middle. I don't see an out ball, as Sterling and Aguero will have to come way short for it.

Our out ball will repeatedly be Walker. Whether we actually make it out from that point is another matter, but they’ll be happy to shut off KDB and let Walker have more space.

Smash the cunnts City, fucking smash them

3-1 City, more wishful thinking than belief

Vinny is looking mighty fine

 

[tolmie's hairdoo]

Sterling has a helluva job on in terms of discipline, going out to try and stop Arnold, yet also getting back in to protect Angelino against Salah.

My main worry is that Stones won't be able to get us out because they will push right up on Gundo and Rodri.

Time for Kev to take more responsibility.

Get it done now, Karen — you don’t need any distractions during the match. ;-)

Pep is a fantastic coach and knows the game more than most people on this planet.
I knew we would see something different in the line-up today. He had the choice of playing Mendy or Cancelo at LB, but picked Angelino, probably because he believes he is the best choice against Salah.

I have a good feeling about this but I hope Bravo and Stones have their nerves in place.

Klopp reminds me of Mr. Ed.

He reminds me of someone who’s escaped from a local asylum..

Cancelo is not a lb,rb's playing lb and vice versa is a myth

This.
Only Sterling with pace.

We should centre our gameplan around getting quick balls in behind TAA who’s poor defensively leaving sterling to run at Lovren, there’s an obvious weakness there, would be criminal not to exploit it. At the very least it forces them back and gives us room to play our usual game

 

[Keeper!]

Angelino scares the poo out of me defensively, hope he proves me very wrong

 

[Colin Bells Boots]

Mr Ed was really funny so nothing like.

 

[northwichblue]

Are we still going to get mullered Kaz?

 

[kaz7]

Pep-rodders feel good
With him and dave both being injured he didn't want to risk both starting

Angelino needs to wreak some havoc going forwards.

 

[Keeper!]

Can't play Rodri and Gundo together, one or the other, they will rip through us with their pace

 

[Stoned Rose]

Big ask of Angelino today imo.

I fancy a Foden cameo coming on to grab the winner complete with lots of badge kissing.

Let's see what we're made of.

 

[waspish]

Think pep wants the ball down our left it keeps the ball away from Mane;)
