Liverpool v City Pre match Discussion Thread

[squirtyflower]

Controlling midfield is very important in this game so if I were Peller I would go with this...

.....................Negredo.............

Milner...........Silva..............Navas

...........Yaya........Fernandinho....

Clichy........DMC.....Komp......Zaba

.....................Hart........................

Nasri has to play of you want to control possession

.................................................Hart............................................
Zaba/Clichy......Demichelis..............Kompany...........Kolarov
..........................Fernandinho..........Toure.................................
..........Milner.....................................................Silva...................
............................................Nasri................................................
..............................................Negredo........................................

Not been this excited about a game for ages. Going to have to find something to do to fill the time before kick off. A fridge full of Heineken, verve cliquet and a selection of single malts should provide ample entertainment.
3-1 city. Negredo brace and a fernandinho daisy cutter, topping off his man of the match performance. Maybe a Suarez red card for being a hideous goofy fucker, or just for diving.

Erm Heineken... the fuk ?? the malts sound good but Heineken...

One of just a few that has kept its dignity of brewing at 5% mate! plus I love the taste.

You're obviously too young to remember when it was 3.4% then Pige!

Didn't we get the same with the pre match posturing against Arsenal? that Arsenal's midfield Ozil, Wilshire, Ramsey et al were going to cream us? then Fernandinho pops up with 2 sublime goals.... I haven't heard any posturing from our side, unlike Rodgers giving it the "we're not scared of City" and how they dominate and play the 3/4 press....
Admittedly, we don't have Aguero, and it might be wise to play a stacked midfield with Negredo the one up, with Nasri and/or Silva operating as floating striker, much like Aguero does dropping deep to link up with our midfield.
I hope Zaba is fit and that it was just a tweak of his HS, mustn't play Clichy out of position again, and Milner should be the one to fill that role.
What I want is Saurez silenced and nullified out of the game, to see him frustrated and complaining to the ref with the crowd booing him, I want to see him crack and see how quickly the old Saurez takes to appear.....

The difference is the Liv midfield are all workhorses that put a challenge in (baring coutinho even now hes doing his defensive duties) with aresnal you just dont have that. Against spurs sterling was tracking back from the opponents goal to their own to win a challenge.. i really do believe we need to get milner in the middle of the park with fernan, cuz yaya just does not have that win the ball back mentality the other 2 players have.

I think we will see later today how important Aguero and Zabaleta are to our team.

Aguero is not just our leading goalscorer but he is our fear factor going forward, Zabaleta surprisingly is leading the way in assists for us this season and we all saw against Bayern how much of our play changed when he came on.

Huge game today, we can't give this lot the confidence to go on and win the league because a win at our place by Liverpool would be a massive statement.

Agreed about those two being shit. Add carling to the list, too.

Navas is essential for this game.

Maybe Nasri can sit this one out.
