Liverpool (H) - Sat 1st April, 12:30 | Pre-Match Thread

I pray to God Haaland is in for tomorrow. If not, then I fear it will give them such a boost - as if it's not their fucking cup final every time the play us FFS.

I thought the tarqins played Saturday 3:00 pm against leeds

Yes they do. Wrong again. HAHA.

 

[The Lightbowne Cowboy]

Wrong

It's not the first time and it won't be the last.

He’s been out for 5 months so probably very rusty

Ye maybe a 15 minute run out.

Liverpools midfield legs have gone. I’d play Alvarez on Trent and start Mahrez. Pin the two fullbacks and dominate the ball and I think we’ll be far too much for them. Potentially Grealish/Bernardo False 9

I have had doubts that City would beat L'pool most times they've played them in recent years but not this time. Confident of a comfortable win. 3-0 or maybe 3-1 at worst. I'm more concerned about whether I can be up for a 7:30 a.m. start and have the bacon butties ready.

They don't use the midfield often though. Having said that they coped well enough with us at Anfield. They'll hit the ball long to their forwards and try and get both fullbacks whipping in crosses as they always do.

 

[Tangled up in blue.]

As you say, its a great back four, trouble is, Pep will probably go with Laporte & Akanji in the centre ha

Obviously

Is Haaland officially out? I know he missed a training sesh but maybe we're wrapping him in the proverbial cotton wool, or is that me being wishful?

Just feels like the fates have conspired to see Arsenal lift it this year.

Fuck me how did you cope in 2012 ;-)

 

[big gaz]

Is the big lad definitely out?

Yep I am, what about it ?
