Time to right the ship or there could be some serious Liverpool crying going on.

 

[spintheblackcircle]

Earlier this week Toby said he was fit, but he will not play tomorrow against ManU. As long as he is out and Poch continues to play f***ing Sissoko over ANYONE with a pulse, I can't see them winning tomorrow.

 

[Live in the Now]

Wijnaldum dropped for Milner. van Dijk is sick so he's out to the bench as well.

Martial is going to skin Trippier tomorrow. Don't expect us to win.

 

[YNWA14]

Look at how narrow our attack is against Huddersfield. Literally relying on Gomez and Robertson to put in crosses and hope that our diminutive wingers/Firmino can get something out of it. Still playing on a hope and a prayer that the sheer difference in quality of our attackers will allow us to beat low blocks with no real plan of attack. Playing right into them.

EDIT: Nice save from Karius.

 

[Live in the Now]

Wow our keeper made a save. Not used to that.

That's what happens when your midfield consists of Milner, Can, and Henderson.

Nice service by Oezil and good finish by Monreal

Yeah, exactly. The players aren't good enough. That's the same midfield we had the season Liverpool finished decently down the table.

 

[maclean]

aaaand then he loses the ball to let Swansea tie it

 

[bluesfan94]

Arsenal scoring and then giving it right back sounds about right.

 

[bluesfan94]

On the bright side, you should be able to stop Huddersfield's devastating attack with those guys.

 

[YNWA14]

That's what happens when your midfield consists of Milner, Can, and Henderson.

What do they have to do with our structure though? Why aren't Mane and Salah being used to stretch the opposition? Look at City attacking a low block versus Liverpool's plan and you'll see the real problem. Is the midfield the best or most technical? No, but they're also not being given a lot of options. When Coutinho was in the midfield it was the same, except he's a little more selfish and tries more long shots. I'd like to see Henderson shoot more because he actually has a really nice shot when he uses it from long.

 

[Paulie Gualtieri]

Clucas scores. Xhaka is so f***ing bad, wow.

 

[YNWA14]

Great ball from Lovren to Salah (who can't control it) after Firmino runs all over the field to try and make some kind of opening after winning the ball back.

 

[Live in the Now]

Can can shoot with both feet, so he seems like an obvious selection against these kinds of teams at this moment. They are playing a lot better than on Saturday.

 

[Live in the Now]

See. Guy can shoot the ball.

 

[YNWA14]

Huge deflection but I'll take it.

 

[Live in the Now]

Huge deflection but I'll take it.

True, but every time he shoots from that area it is at least going to be on target. The one he just hit was probably going top corner.

Looked more like right at the keeper but who knows. I don't really care if we win because of it.

 

[Live in the Now]

Rest of these games against the mid-table Can needs to play as an #8. Playing really well here.

 

[YNWA14]

Can someone explain how that wasn't a yellow for the bearhug on Salah? lol

 

[Spoiled Bratt]

Xhaka is f***ing horrible and Lacazette looks like the laziest player I've ever seen.

If he doesn't get the ball right where he wants it, he's pretty much useless.

Thank god for Ozil and Monreal!

 

[Savant]

Rest of these games against the mid-table Can needs to play as an #8. Playing really well here.

He offers much more than Wijnaldum in these kind of games. Nothing wrong with platooning them.
