Liverpool (H) | Pre-Match Thread

[sh249]

Not usually a fan of Rodri and Gundogan starting together - can be a bit laboured. But (as far as it's possible to make a stab at guessing Pep's intentions) I can see the logic in it tonight. Suspect it will be more a 4-2-3-1 than a 4-3-3 - with the hope that us playing with two deeper midfielders will disrupt their shape. If Wijnaldum and Henderson are both prepared to go and press high, there's a much better chance of us finding De Bruyne (and Foden) in the space between their defence and midfield. If they don't press both Gundogan and Rodri, then we should be able to dominate the ball.
In theory.

Rodri is as much the'future' as a betamax VCR...

"MAN ON....."

Given the fact that B Silva’s best ever game was at CM at home to Liverpool, I’m a little gutted he’s on the bench and Gundogan starts.

Worst business we’ve done in a while is renewing that bottle job’s contract.

Anyone else looking forward to seeing Liverpool getting their guard of honour? Whaddya mean, no? You miserable shower of tcsnu, I should ban the lot of you.

Wouldn't surprise me if they piped in that nauseating shite we all have to be silent for.

bit harsh...

Mendy v Salah = disaster

Ended 0-0 at Anfield the last time they matched up.

Pep must have a lot of faith in young Eric.

And none in Otamendi to face this Liverpool front line, which is right.

They won’t so I normally do, usually as soon as the team is announced, time to go now as it is.
