Swansea (H)

[Brizzle]

So - team for this.

I think it will be the usual except Agger for Toure again so:

----------------Mignolet-----------------
Flanno---Skrtel---Agger---Cissokho
----------------Gerrard-----------------
------------Hendo--Coutinho---------
Sterling-----------------------Suarez-
-----------------Studge----------------

Back to winning ways - I'd expect us to get a few in this and Suarez to find the net at least once which will prompt Rosco's flat track bullies comments!

 

[cloggypop]

Hope Bony does not score too many

 

[Gerry_A_Trick]

We should win this handily enough. And we really need to get a few more points on the board before we come up against some of the bigger teams.

 

[keniget]

Hopefully Swansea will come looking to play and we will destroy them on the counter a la Everton.

Sturridge and co have some scoring to do after Sunday's ridiculousness.

Nice. Exactly the team i'd choose.

 

[Hyena]

It won't be an easy game. They will be up for it with Monk in charge.
These Student vs. Mentor match-ups always have a surprise in them.

 

[Mystic]

A win, and a goal for Suarez is all I want. We have to be beating lower table teams at home with easy, simple as.

 

[ILD]

You are Bony's biggest fan cloggy.

I also think he is boss. Bony Is Boss, but hopefully not on Sunday.

 

[JonesyRed]

Shelvey to score a hatrick in three different goals and get sent off? Anything is possible with him

 

[RolandG]

I hope Suarez gets a few. Lad needs it to lift the obvious frustration.

A win is what we need and expect. Go lads!

 

[hmmmmm1]

Is this on sky

 

[hamstrung_pigeon]

He's not been in the matchday squad since the beginning of the month. Aggravated a hammy against West Ham, so not sure if he'll be coming back to Anfield.

 

[FoxForceFive]

Nope. Newcastle Villa is on.

It's on almost every European TV network though so finding a pub with it in should be a piece of piss, unless you're in Newcastle or Birmingham anyway.

 

[OLD_Lewy]

if we had anyone decent to play on the wings id rest either sturridge or suarez, maybe not for this game but sometime soon, but fuck seeing moses getting a start and sterling and ibe both starting is a bit too much of a risk tbh, ahhh if only we had gotten yonkyplonko or whatever the fuck he's called

 

[FoxForceFive]

You could rest Suarez & play Coutinho in his preferred position with Allen, Henderson & Stevie behind.

I think Suarez would massively benefit from a rest & Sturridge from being given the responsibility to lead the line again.

It is risky as fuck though, if it didn't work Rodgers would be castigated.

 

[juniormember]

I would't rest Suarez. He's been destroying pretty much every single team we've played during his 'barren spell', even against Arsenal the other day.
We're a completely different side without him. Play him. He has 7 days to rest after that.

 

[Jack D Rips]

Especially by Nealmac and his son Stephen who now have tickets thanks to the efforts of ILD and Count. Hope to pick one up myself as well.

But he's nowhere near his best. He can single handedly destroy teams on his best form, which we could do with against city & Chelsea.

 

[ILD]

Play all our best players, beat them by the hour mark, bring on some subs. SIMPLE.

 

[jimmy]

I don't think Suarez will agree to be reset. Surely not with a whole week since the Arsenal game. He's the kind of lad who could spend 24 hours a day playing football. Just like my son... 😉

@Jack D Rips - great new re tickets! Hope you get sorted too, mate!

 

[Glen C]

Bit of a exaggeration. He's been a bit unlucky and has sacrificed himself for the team by playing out wide a lot more. But nowhere near his best is still better than what any other player would do if we put them in that role.

It is, I have no arguments whatsoever with that, but game by game his impact is lessening, & in this form city & Chelsea have the players who can stop him, which nullifies our main threat.

We're getting Suarez lite at the moment, I want the player back who tears teams apart & is gagging for the ball every second, that player, plus the rest of the side firing the way it is, is all but unbeatable.

The whole team can fucking rest at the end of the season. Suarez once told me he gets tired if he's not playing so yeah play him and enjoy him ripping other teams apart.

HA HA HA HA HA

Riiighhht. You're as tiresome as the original glock even if you aren't him.

 

[moneymay81]

Back to winning ways need Luis to get back amongst the goals i know its a cliche but it really is 12 cup finals im already saving up money for the title party in may not felt like this since Istanbul season

 

[hamstrung_pigeon]

We have a free weekend after playing away at Southampton with the postponement of the Sunderland game and us out of the FA Cup. Play our best players against Swansea and Southampton - whoever needs a rest can get that during that lull weekend.

 

[Dirkus_Circus]

Has Garry Mong ruled out the possibility of playing for Swansea any more? I would love to see a player/manager in the modern Premier League.

 

[Hyena]

It's crazy, this player / manager thing. I can't see how it could ever work out.

If you slip up the honourable thing would be to drop yourself. And then when do you decide that you 'deserve' to go back in? How do you motivate your 2 CBs if you're plotting to unseat them?

So who is this reincarnation of Glock? LTW?
