Pre match thread: Liverpool v Hull

[doctor_mac]

We have to win this.

Rolling on from Derby, I also have a soft spot for the Tigers. Me old fella played in nets for 'Ull in the 60's. Here he is losing 3-1 to Chelsea in the FA Cup Quarters .

He's the keeper on the ground near the end (1:44).

He shoulda done better with a few of those

No 9-0

If @localny's da was still between the sticks for Hull we'd score that easy.

Looks like Clyne was given the day off.

b'stard! Who said you could bring my family into it..(Doh, I did!)

Here he is saving one against Athletico in 1958 in Madrid (he was an 18 year old playing for Drumcondra).

Loris Karius looks set to start

The flap aside and I appreciate it is a big aside, I though he showed enough the other night to justify his place in the side.
He was quick off his line on numerous occasions taking the pressure off his defense while his distribution was good too.
I think he is the type of sweeper keeper that our defense and overall style of play will benefit from.
If he isn't good enough and it isn't him then it should be another with a similar skillset.

We're doomed. We've lost this game now

Yeah, I don't doubt that Klopp bought him for precisely those skills, so Ming's days have to be numbered, as he just hasn't got that in the locker.

Thanks mate. Still childishly so: I believe the guy in the pic is Vava, who was playing for Brazil @ the time and they'd just come back from winning the WC. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vavá

 

[Judge Jules]

Nothing childish about being proud of your dad, Niall. 😎

Cue Karius shocker.

Good to see Lovren still trolling Grujic. Hah!

 

[Squiggles]

Mignolet will be off in the summer.

Lucas will retrain as reserve keeper and be on our bench for another 15 years.

That's not even funny. Why would you post that?

Why? WHY?

Hey, it's better than Lucas becoming manager.

 

[Whirly]

Even better, he could replace Achterberg.

 

[mark1975]

Hey, it's better than Lucas becoming manager.

Yeah, but that's after the 15 years as keeper, it'll still happen, stop kidding yourself.

 

[Sheik Yerbouti]

Looking forward to going tomorrow. Can't wait to see what the new stand looks like with people in it.

 

[Rafiagra]

It's good that Karius is in. He was signed for a reason and so he should go straight in. Mignolet isn't good enough. We already know that. So, why persevere out of a sense of 'fairness'?

 

[gene hughes]

I'm not too keen on the way he uses his head to deal with crosses.
