Liverpool V City pre-match thread.

Oh ye of little faith - we are so far ahead of them, and will approach the game in the same way as the last 2 games. There is no way they can be as lucky as they were in the final. We will win. Onwards and upwards brothers and sisters.

Will be fascinating to see who plays, both teams could hardly move at the end

Same approach as yesterday.
Liverpool have beaten us because in the first 20 minutes they go for the kill and we usually lie down and let them tickle our bellies. Well yesterday they didn't, they started with the greater tempo, but we held firm, we were structured and once their one and only plan had failed we took complete control of the game.

Anfield is always a hard place to go and the past few years we've played right into their hands. I know a few dipper fans that all say the same thing. If they don't start well and score early, the nerves set in.

Yes it was actually quite similar to the 3-2 Candle game in 2014 except we didn't concede 2 goals during their initial offence. But the way we bossed the second half was quite like that game.

As Capital 1 runners up will Liverpool get a Europa league place if we get premier top4 and they finish mid table?

No, it will go to the 6th place team in the league - might possibly be Chelsea.

Are we taking the cup to show them?

Are we taking the cup to show them?

Never see it again, if we do. they'll have the thing, nicked, melted down & flogged off to some dodgy jeweller, before you can say giro

 

[lasereyes]

Dont worry - they wont know what it is.

 

[Viridian]

Not sure really. Both teams will definitely be knackered but Liverpool could be deflated as much as they could be angry. We could be on a high or too complacent.

They are shocking at set pieces and something i was surprised at yesterday that we didn't take advantage of with the amount of corners we had.

That's what I felt as well. With Navas sure to start, he will get us plenty of corners. I think we have to give Bony a chance to utilize the set pieces and give Aguero some rest and bring him on depending on the match situation in the second half.

Stand by for our players being boo'd all game once more by the ever classy Anfield mob.
But they're not bitter or twisted, i just read so on RAWK.
I hope we empty the twats about 4-0
There'd be another day of mourning announced in Norway!
Their crying since Sunday has been music to my ears the sad grief monkeys!
