Liverpool (H) - Carabao Cup 4th Round - Thu 22nd Dec, 20:00 | Pre-Match Thread

[LongsightM13]

Can't remember Guardiola picking all his top players at the same time for a League Cup game and don't see him doing it for the upcoming Liverpool match. It will be mostly second choice players with first choice players on the bench as back up. Scouser's will do the same.

Unique circumstances though.
First game back with the need to get players back up to speed, six days until our next fixture, I think both will go close to full strength

Our players at the World Cup have been fairly anonymous.

Lack of form, past their best or just buggered from the intensity of the last few seasons?

Not expecting great things from them when they return.

Let's be honest which Prem players have really shined?

 

[Bluemoonadam]

They are the last team we should want to meet in Final

I'd rather play literally any body else other than these lot in the final.

Rashford has been likened to Mbappe apparently .....................by Ten Haag

More hype on the back of two goals ( 1 a big deflection ) scored, but just like bears shit in the woods etc etc

Mbappe will be so fucking angry at that comparison .

Correction - would be fucking awful if we lose to the cult club , but a game to savour if we win ?

Why
Does Mbappe do a soup round also?

Add the problems with their fan behaviour, attacks of our players, their ticketless fans and congested flight routes, I can’t see why anyone would want them in the final

As usual you contradict yourself in your own post

They were the best of a bad lot

2 goals scored against a Wales side with a dodgy keeper who would get relegated from the Championship.

Rashford’s bang average but I’m happy for the media to fawn over him on the basis that if their deluded fans think they’ve actually got a top class striker there’ll be less of a clamour for them to buy somebody better. Danny Welbeck for example.

Walker was brilliant v Mbappe. Stones carried slabhead. Rodri was good as was Alvarez.

I can't see why anyone would honestly want these bastards anywhere near civilisation, when they have proved time and again, that they are the biggest set of cunts in football . And that includes the rags followers .

The media allow them to get away with all their crimes and acts of violence, vandalism and theft because they are shit scared of the fallout from their victim mentality, and the money they wouls lose because of exposing the truth .

The description lawless feral scum only goes so far in the realms of accuracy.

I'd never forget it if we lost and also never forget it if we beat them, so I'd rather play someone else in the final because I'd forget easier if we lost. I'm over the Chelsea loss in the final now but if it was liverpool who'd of beaten us I'd still be suffering now.

Understandable mate.

But they really are not worth letting them get under your skin .

I thought Mbappe was exactly like Rashford in the QF against England. shite !!!

Ortega
Lewis
Akanji
Laporte
Cancelo
Phillips
Gundogan
De Bruyne
Grealish
Mahrez
Haaland

Its actually very probable, i like idea with starting Philips hear, maybe Pep would like to play Sergio Gomez and Cole Palmer, after all its Cup and they are going to be subs later on

yeah possibly mate, i think though Pep will want some of the main players to get a game back together before the premier league starts again for us.

Thought that was more down to how well Walker did against him, gave him no real opportunities to hurt england.

Yep - Walker had him sussed
