Pickford Godfrey Mina keane digne Allan Doucoure gomes james DCL Richarlison Think this'll likely be the XI with the exception of Mina. Carlo said he's doubtful for Saturday. I am hoping for a Godfrey/Keane partnership but have a sinking feeling it'll be Holgate/Keane with Godfrey at RB like you had it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zoo 2.0 Posted February 18, 2021 Report Share Posted February 18, 2021 Best chance we're going to get to break the hoodoo considering their in poor form, have to play in the Champions League just before it and don't have any fans in the ground, not to mention that their best player is out injured and their goalkeeper is in bizarre form.

They'll have had a day extra rest than us, so I don't know why the CL game comes into your thinking really. We went to pieces against their kids in the cup there last season. It's a mental thing as much as anything for us and until we shift out a few and get more players in who have a better mentality it'll continue to be the case. Plus, I'm really struggling at times to see what Carlo's game plan is, what sort of style he wants us to have. It's all very mish mash at the minute.

RuffRob Posted February 18, 2021 Report Share Posted February 18, 2021 Pickford Coleman Keane Godfrey Digne Doucoure Allan Davies DCL James Richarlison I think a similar set up as we had against Utd. Their full backs like to attack, so on any counter get at them in the space they leave on the flanks, and pull centre halves out of position. One thing I was please to see with when we played city was on a rear attacks we actually did it in numbers. Same again please. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlbanyNYToffee Posted February 19, 2021 Report Share Posted February 19, 2021 Dream: James thunderbolt from 25 yards in stoppage time to cap 4-3 win, first win at Anfield since 1999. Reality: Lose 2-0 and DCL and Allan do their hamstrings and have to be subbed off first half. One day, one fucking day, the top of the mountain is going to feel so good.

The worst part is that’s it’s been set up that If a liverpool player makes a truly horrible challenge that breaks one of our players legs, justice will have been served. Absolutely pathetic from the media and liverpool. I remember when Eduardo got his leg broken in a horrible tackle and there was nothing near to this level for that. markjazzbassist, Romey 1878, pete0 and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boston Toffee Posted February 20, 2021 Report Share Posted February 20, 2021 Woke at 4AM here in the states, first thing I thought of was this match. Would love at the very least a draw but who knows. Going to need to be disciplined and not get sucked in to any nonsense. I worry about a guys like Richarlison and Holgate who seem like their emotions can get the better of them and could get a red card..

Come on you Blues I also think this game could be a bit spicy - It wouldn't surprise me if Liverpool put some big hits in and maybe look for a bit Van Dyke retribution. Been plenty of unnecessary talk in the media about the Pickford tackle again . Our players need to be professional and not get sucked in to any of this rubbish. Ref needs to be on the look out any sly Liverpool digs and nip it in the bud. Boston Toffee 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Standard four at the back with Digne as a left winger as opposed to left back IMO. James on the right with Gomes in the middle and Charlie up top. In other news, I've felt sick all day.
