Pre Match Pre Match - Villa (A) - Weds 19:30

If we are playing with four in midfield maybe Trent stays home and gets extra midfield support.

Problem is that he isn't disciplined enough to do so.
I'm concerned about Trent v Rashford and Robbo v Asensio

 

[Shay_K]

My only concern is what happens if we get a penalty...
.....no Cody to look after the ball and distract the opposition players while Mo focuses on his preparation.
Hopefully one of the other lads steps up to the mark.

 

[doctor_mac]

They've picked a really attacking side.

They've picked a really attacking side.

And we seem to have picked a team to motivate them to do so

Yeah, not sure what to expect here. Other than Rashford playing like Platini/Maradona/R9 hybrid.

I think it will be a fluid midfield left side combo.

 

[Farkmaster]

Hey, we are short on confidence. Let's try something we've never tried before that requires Salah to cover back and szobo to find some finishing he hasn't had his entire time at the club?

He's got more confidence than I... Or a depressingly defensive view of what a CF does.

I think the idea is that it mitigates the need for Salah to track back

 

[Shadey]

They’ve only kept 3 clean sheets this season, there will be goals..

 

[Farkmaster]

I need Valium. Then I just listen to panda bear or something with the commentary off. That's about the only way I'm going to get through these games.

 

[mark1975]

Won't it just be Szobo or Jones as a false 9?

 

[Farkmaster]

Right, but if we can't get our foot on the ball, I worry we won't have a good outball.

 

[doctor_mac]

Anyone take a draw before a ball is kicked?

If we'd beaten Everton yeh.. but we didn't.

 

[Red Bird]

They've picked a really attacking side.

That’s the way to get at Liverpool these days, seems like.

 

[Shadey]

Most likely but he’s trying to out wit Emery too.

 

[Fabio]

Nah

I'm not confident but fuck it. Faint heart never won fair maiden

 

[doctor_mac]

Good man. I'm just trying to out the yellow bellys.

 

[Shadey]

Wow villa park like a champions league final.

 

[SummerOnions]

We're winning 3-1 I reckon

 

[Shadey]

How did that side draw with Ipswich?

 

[Shadey]

4231

 

[Shadey]

COME ON LIVERPOOL FC

 

[Mojo]

Garcia gets it in the plums

 

[SummerOnions]

Lol Virg

 

[Shay_K]

Centre wicket Arry

 

[DHSC]

Nice variation on that corner.

 

[Mojo]

Good corner routine, Virg should have squared it instead

 

[Fabio]

Least we've started brightly
