Pre match thread Stoke (A)

Status
Not open for further replies.
It's Luke's birthday party (he's was nine yesterday, by some weird miraculous fast forwarding of time I think, how the fuck is he nine already?!) today, so I'll have the match on the big screen before the national starts, & have the joy of having at least nine blues in the house with me.

I've decided to invest in a crate of beer to join the first crate of beer in the fridge, & consuming that in rapid fashion (as soon as I've finished prepping the house & food) will be my mental preparation!

What a coincidence! My youngest brother is having a bluenose heavy Grand National party too, which will be made even more annoying because his two sons are both training with Everton now.

I will be sure to remind him that 95% of under 10 youth players attached to Premiership clubs never make it past schoolboy forms, and also that one of his sons is probably gay.

Obviously I'm not going, because I live in Surrey and he lives in Liverpool, but maybe I could Skype the fat headed cunt
 
ok , don't shoot th messenger buuuuut there's goals in this one.

2-5 a bobby firmino hattrick
 
Pyar losing this. Won't be the 6-1 level, but I'm expecting lose by 3
 
Yeh but we have two perfectly good players who normally play in that position. Why move them when TAA has shown he can play on the right? Can't see stoke having any joy at all down that said with him and Clyne on that wing. Sadly, the same can't be said of the left wing. That's not to berate Milner. He does as good a job as he can be expected to do in a position that's far from his most natural.
 
How interesting. He's looked pretty good in what glimpses I've seen.

Right mid?

I think it might be centre mid, it's his preferred position. Hopefully Coutinho is playing and we can stick with him, Firmino and Origi up top, with a bit more tenacity in the middle through TAA.
 
Huge uphill battle to win today.

Hopefully we can turn in a performance and get the 3 pts.

Gini to get his 1st away goal
 
Woodburn and TAA start. Back 3 and Coutinho and Firmino on the bench
Milner in midfield

I mean, I'm happy for the kids, they've both performed fantastically when called upon, but jesus christ Jurgen, this is unfair on them, we're throwing away an absolutely golden opportunity here, Coutinho and Firmino has to be truly fucked for this to be the only team to choose.
 
If it wasn't for Milner's penalties, there would be about five goals in that team all season.
 
We need to have a serious rethink about our approach to fitness and rehab if thats what we're left with at this stage of a season with no European competition.
