Defending Carra (formerly West Ham thread)

They dont have a lot of pace in that side. But they're physical and good defensively. They'll sit deep and play route 1 football.
Knock downs, corners and set pieces will be tough.

Our movement and pace will be a lot for them to handle.
Skrtel contains Carroll and we'll win.
 
Every free kick they get anywhere on the pitch will be getting pumped into our box.

Its the obvious weakness of ours defending high balls though we have improved a bit, their main strength is Carroll, it would be foolish to not realise and respect that, i really would be amazed if Sakho isn't starting.

I agree about carol, and was trying to make the same point, albeit not very clearly.
 
The good thing is that Agger and Skrtel will have both played against Carroll in training enough over the past couple of seasons so will know how to deal with him (at least more than most defenders he will come up against).
 
I don't know if I genuinely feel concerned about West Ham or if it's just the horrible prospect of Fat Sam having an impact on our title charge; either way I'm a little concerned by this game.

Something about away games against this club over the last couple of seasons gives me trepidation - plus the fact Sam is such an obnoxious pig who hates us with a passion and loves Ferguson.... I almost feel like his purpose on earth is to be one of the mancs agents and managing a football club is secondary to that purpose.

I'm convinced they'll part the bus like few other teams in history. He won't care about West Ham - they're safe anyway. Taking points off us will be his only objective. An early goal would be priceless - as would an early yellow to Carroll.
 
Everyone who's so worried about Carroll should consider how worried they are about our attack.
I predict that Carroll will be isolated up front and they'll have trouble establishing any type of possession in our half.
 
Wouldn't be shocked to see a return of the shit 352 in this fame giving us more bodies at the back to combat the long balls. I'd even play kolo instead of Agger for this one as he'd cope much better against the strength of Carroll and co

Lucas could also get the nod to help gerrard stop Nolan's late runs into the box into Carroll's knock downs

Ming
Johnson
Sahko
Skrtel
Kolo
Flanagan
Gerrard
Lucas
Henderson
Suarez
Sturridge
 
Why is it so many posters think we're going to struggle in every game - when the reality is we dominate and blow most away ? @Dirty Sanchez is spot on.

That win for West Ham last night is great, they are certain to stay up and they know it. It may take a bit of bite from their game.

I'd much prefer Sakho over Agger but I think Rodgers will go with an unchanged side. Coutinho to start as we'll need some guile to open them up.

West Ham 1 Liverpool 3 or 4
 
Think we'll go back to a diamond for this game. I can see sterling back on the bench will allen back in the side for the midfield battle. I can see us winning 2-4..
 
I think Sterling will be on the bench too. Gives us another orthodox midfielder to try to stop knock downs, rests him ahead of the city game & means he can be used as an impact sub should we need it.
 
You guys are fucking hilarious.
Andy fucking Carrol, Stuart fucking Downing, and Joe fucking Cole.
Fucking hell.
We will win this game handily.

Absolutely, with Skrtel, Sahko & Gerrard(still one the hardest cunts in football, ask Fellangy at the scum) in front, they shouldn't get many a header on goal. On the ground they have a similar speed and turning radius of the QE 2, our speedy tenacious little fuckers will wear them out. They have scored 36 & conceded 42 this season, top scorers Nolan-7, C Cole-6, Diamé-4, they are shit. They are safe after last night and will probably be in the pub until Sunday morning, so fuck it, we'll win big.

I just hope Brendan takes it more serious than me.

HAHAHA!! Kolo is an absolute shit house! He has been a reasonable 4th choice but he would be the worse equipped to deal with Carroll.
