Liverpool vs Palace : Pre Match Thread

[Oncy]

It would be utopia to get a result tomorrow.

Like winning a cup

 

[Jack D Rips]

We've lost our last 3 home games against these fucks.

It would be utopia to get a result tomorrow.

It might be a famous victory

We can keep clean sheets. We kept 5 of last 6 clean last season. People were moaning their arses of about the team not scoring. So yes you can, but that is not what we aim for. We aim to win football games by playing football, and not to avoid loose them and snatch a win if we can.

Mate we are all over the place defensively and ridiculously vulnerable with set pieces and crosses. Too many times we have gone forward and then been exposed on the counter. Sometimes its resulted in a goal and sometimes it hasn't but the vulnerability is still there. Lets plug that gap and have one of our midfielders sit there for added protection. You can play football and be better defensively at the same time....spurs prove that point.

Indeed, since 2015.

Need to make Anfield a fortress too. 2 wins from our last 5 home league matches (F9 A5)

 

[Kay Age El]

I hope we have a right pop at them, attacking from back to front.

I even want Moreno in there for his attacking runs alone. Him and TAA bombing forward.

I think we will win. Again.

 

[Oncy]

We've won one trophy since this site was set up 11 years ago.
A quarter of my life.
Maybe we are the fucking problem.

I was wholly responsible for the last minute Watford goal at the weekend , i didn't want to say anything but there's been many a time since SCMs inception that I've inadvertently jinxed the fuck out of us .

Sorry

Wolverine has let himself go.

 

[Oncy]

Haha

 

[Hansern]

Palace have been our bogey team, but their performance last weekend and the fact that Zaha is out of tomorrows game, gives me some confidence.

We should win, but Benteke will obviously score.

 

[Brizzle]

We can't play all 3 of Hendo, Can and Gini again - we need someone with some creativity and attacking intent in there. My vote is for Grujic.

---------------Mignolet----------------
TAA----Matip----Lovren---Robertson
----------------Hendo--------------------
-----------Grujic----Wijnaldum--------
Salah-------Firmino---------Mane

 

[Oncy]

We scored 5 goals in 2 games!!!!
Adding a less defensive midfielder isnt the answer.

 

[Hansern]

Gruijc is a bit of a cunt and aggressive, we need some of that in midfield.

 

[Red Bird]

We scored 5 goals in 2 games!!!!
Adding a less defensive midfielder isnt the answer.

In the same breath, we conceded 4 goals in two games. Loose defending is the issue

If we concede more than one goal on Saturday, there will be more than a few people calling for Sakho to be brought back into the team.

 

[Rosco]

I'd play him ahead of Lovren every time

 

[ibromurph]

I'd like to see how Sahko and Matip play like together. Have they ever even played together?

Robertson in for Moreno too obviously.

 

[Brizzle]

The midfield has looked confused. None of them know what their role is.

 

[Brizzle]

Sakho won't play for us again, least of all against Palace where you almost can't trust that he won't gift his mates a goal.

 

[Brizzle]

Plus it is set pieces that are killing us and if anything Grujic adds another big man into the box for us [/clutching at straws]

 

[Rosco]

The midfield has looked confused. None of them know what their role is.

That's just what we want the opposition to think

 

[Hansern]

The new pitch looks fantastic

 

[Oncy]

The new pitch looks fantastic

Oh yippee.
*slow clap*

 

[Rosco]

Cue the expensive manure jokes

 

[manwithnoname]

Oh yippee.
*slow clap*

Oh come on, just imagine Markovic gliding across that beautiful pitch, beating two men and then crossing it over for Origi to volley sweetly home!

 

[Squiggles]

-------------Mignolet
TAA Matip Lovren Milner
----Henderson--Can-------
-----------Firmino--------
Salah---Solanke---Mane

That's our best line up, IMO. Firmino is the only player available who has the skills to link midfield and attack in Lallana and Coutinhos absence.

Expecting Henderson, Can and Wijnaldum to get it done is asking for trouble.

 

[Insignificance]

Oh come on, just imagine Markovic gliding across that beautiful pitch, beating two men and then crossing it over for Origi to volley sweetly home!

I know you would hate for that to happen. But no worries man, it will not.

 

[SummerOnions]

Milner in for Hendo I guess. Meh. Not a lot going on to mix it up.
