Let's Push Things Forward

I'm fucking excited. I shouldn't be like, bet it's a scrappy game. Going for 3-1

Mignolet
Gomez lovren Klavan Robertson
Hendo Wijnaldum
Mane Coutinho
Salah Firmino

Thoughts?
 
I hope Robertson plays. Is there something wrong with Moreno or is that preference? Otherwise fine, as long as Can doesn't play. Hate the greasy knackerbag.
 
Milner will play left back, so Gomez, Lovren, Klavan, Milner

Not sure if he will play Can and Wijnaldum with Henderson, but that would mean one of Salah, Coutinho or Mane misses out, which would be a shame.
 
--------------Mignolet----------------
TAA---Gomez--Lovren--Robertson in my view, TAA as a local needs to be on the pitch. This might mean Lovren & Klavan instead of Gomez...
---------Hendo--Can----------------
------------Coutinho------------------
-Salah----Firmino-----Mane
 
TAA should start as Gomez started midweek. So the rest of the back 4 will be klavan, Lovren and Milner. Henderson is starting and I’d think Can will start for the extra physicality. Coutinho, Salah, Manè and Firmino all to start.
 
Klopp said that Henderson will, and I quote, '100% start'.
That being said, I bet Can plays next to him.
 
Weather forecast is snow. Could make for an interesting game. I hope our front four are ready to play in freezing conditions.

It's fucking horrible today. Snow, hail, sleet & minus temp gales.

If it's like this on Sunday, or worse, it'll suit their 'style of play' more than ours unfortunately.
 
I dont think we will see the fab four starting or together. I have a strong feeling Dom will start along with Sturridge and maybe either Mane or Firminio. I think we need Doms physicality up front for this.
 
Yeah and meant to be awful Sunday.

The FA don't call it off, the pigs do because it's so hilly. If there's ice and snow cars crash and old people fall over.

It's basically a Harry Hill fan;s dream.
 
Not looking forward to this game. These guys are bitter and will commit career threatening injuries. I can very well see Shrek and Barkley going in with 2 footed challanges.

Is it really bad up there in Liverpool right now...loads of snow ?

Right now it's just wet as fuck, but Sunday is forecast no rain or sleet, but between 5 - 10cm of snow, a constant 8mph wind & 25mph gales. That's a fucking horrible combination.

Of course, I'll be in santa land with my mates & their other halves, & eleven crying kids whining about the cold whilst my eldest hits them with snowballs, watching them close all the rides to due to the weather.
 
Milner has to start and I would play Can st CB over Klavan.

Doubt I'll get called off.

When was the last time that happened?

2006/7 Arsenal in the league cup due to fog?

Yep. I remember that, couldn't see more than 3 foot in front of you, no way was that game going ahead.

The police have called off a fair few games prior to that due to snow & ice, not on the pitch, but around the ground. As Anfield is actually on a hill (of sorts, we don't have proper hills in Liverpool) any slippery pavements or roads are something the police are paranoid about.
 
So let's have fun then. If we have to play a game during the worst possible weather conditions against a worst possible opponent (hmm... that sounds like Sunday), what's would be your first 11 among the current squad? How about the all-time LFC squad?

Mignolet
Gomez
Lovren
Klavan
Robertson
Hendo
Can
Milner
Grujic
Solanke
Ings

Not sure about the all-time list, but Hyypia must be in there.

There were lots of games called off in December 2010 I think
 
We flew over one Christmas to the Fulham game. All games were called off. We just drank for the two days. Must have been around 2010 yeah.
We landed and I received a msg from Sean (Sunny, aka Lippy) that all games were off.
 
Why does everyone want Milner to play? He's a really fucking uninspiring left back.

Plus, we're not playing Barcelona and need to tighten things up. It's Everton - they're fucking shit.

Stick Robertson in there. Why pay $10M-odd for a left-back and then not play him when your other left back is injured?
 
I've got a horrible feeling that fat, gravy and wine cocktail swilling infected bollock of a man, with his massive (gravy) chip on his shoulder will get one over on us. The horror of it.

I am thinking the same.
I fear we might only win by three.

3 assists midweek was so uninspiring.

It's the derby we need tough players and I haven't seen Robertson show that side yet. Milner is the safe bet not to mention he deserves it after mid week
