Match Thread | Liverpool vs Man City (16/10/22)

I am happy...... sure the system is a bit Alien.

This is their Cup Final.

We have not been at our stellar best.

Second half we will turn the Screw.

If Phil is crapping himself he needs to be taken off.

Inherited the Sterling syndrome.

I love him but Pep is such a knob for debuting a new formation at Anfield.

Why not do this vs Copenhagen?

Why decide the answer to them playing 60 year old Milner is not to put a winger on him, but drop him back 30 yards to play LWB?

 

[OrigamiNinja]

For the most part we’ve been good.

A few concerns…

1. Game is too fast for Gundo.
2. Without KDB in the middle it feels like there is zero chance of anything creative coming down the centre.
3. It’s a bit frustrating to watch us struggling to defend long balls so much against a bunch of dwarves.
4. Foden has played well but he needs to commit Milner more.

I knew when Klopp said they couldn’t compete they would compete today. Hopefully more space opens as they tire and Haaland bags the winner.

Why does the commentator have to say “Bobby” Firmino. There’s only one of the cunts and his name is Roberto anyway unless you’re a dipper fanboy.

Rodri is bossing the midfield. The turning back when we're on a break is driving me mad

Bossing? What game are you looking at? His slow movements make us vulnerable, as usual against Liverpool. He can’t cope with their pressing.

 

[brummie blue]

Gundo needs to drop in alongside Rodri, KDB in the centre, Silva on the right, Foden needs to run at Gomez and Milner rather than pass back or get Jack on, he'll win us loads of free kicks.

I hate to sound like a dinosaur but when you’re up against someone as old as Milner just fuckin knock it and go

 

[Don Karleone]

More of the same. I think fodens been told not to turn it over for their break.

Gundo off with Phil moving inside
