Liverpool (h) pre-match thread

[worsleyweb]

Beat them and I can see them losing at the rags and maybe Everton away. Draw 3 others. Will leave them on 96 points.

We will be on 50 if we beat them and need 46 from a possible 51 to match them.

15 wins 1 draw and 1 defeat but scoring a shit load of goals along the way.

We can do this but only just and we need Kun, silva, de Bruyne and vinny all firing.

Poor effing time to schedule the marquee match of the year for fans abroad if you ask me. I’ll be back to work after two weeks off and Thursday afternoons are impossible to break away for a couple of hours anyway. I’ll have to come up with creative solution to watch this in real time.

As far as the match itself, I have no idea. Could see almost any outcome. Hope we smash the f*****s though.

I’d keep Danilo at right back and have walker at left back.

Not a bad idea, we'd at least have one fullback in form and in his natural position.

 

[Marvin]

Good idea. Danilo, Mahrez, Bernardo worked very well on the right v Southampton.

Whatever we do. Don't start with Sane. Play Mahrez. Might be ineffective but defends better than Sane. And the whole team gets caught out when Sane is high up pitch.

 

[Millwallawayveteran1988]

we are going to have to score minimally 2 goals, as I cant see us keeping a clean sheet like we did earlier in the season, when defensively we were a lot better

Darren Fletcher is more likely to keep a clean sheet than us currently so I agree! I would say we will need to score 3 to win!

Defends better, you have to be joking mate. He wouldn't know what a tackle was. Too slow to get into a position to make one and if he somehow was hasnt the balls to. Sane everytime for me. No pussies for this game.

Fuck that! Need Leroy and Raheem to start against them twats! Hopefully De Bruyne and David Silva pitting through balls in behind their fullbacks like last season

There was one incident yesterday when he bottled a challenge in the midfield. It ended with a chance for Southampton. I'm pretty sure another player had a word with him about it. Poor.

Going to catch a couple with that.

 

[Trojan1962]

I think Pep will play Zinchenko for this game. I’m basing this on what he said after the saints match after he made the howler. It’s a vote of confidence for the lad

Defend? Is this the same kid who has shit out of numerous tackles all season?

 

[Rammy Blue]

Have to laugh, I’m not on twitter much, but just seen Anthony Taylor is trending, checked it out and it’s full of scousers complaining he’s the ref for Thurs, lmao.

 

[citytilllidie]

We can't keep a clean sheet, they don't concede goals.
Odds aren't good.


4-0 City!

Why put Walker on the wrong side?

I seriously hope not. The thought of any of their front 3 running at him for 90 minutes is more than I can bear, vote of confidence or not

 

[mosssideblue]

rarely do they go behind and especially to a team as strong as ours. if we get an early goal, I could imagine them panicking

They still have spuds and chavs which could also easily see them drop points

He will always praise his players to the media. I wouldn't read too much into that
