Bolton away match thread

[Jairzinho]

Kuyt is a much better footballer.

[BringbackBiscan]

I think they have both been a poor as each other.

 

Ideally we wouldn't have to play either.

 

Neither have been good enough. But until we sign a new forward or get Suarez back there's no choice. If you told me in the summer, I wouldn't want Kuyt even near the bench come new year, I'd of laughed. Can't believe how poor he's been.

 

At least there's a chance if Carroll gets good delivery, he'll score. I also think he concerns defenders more, leaving space for midfielders to punish sides. If they'd bother their hole running beyond him for once.

 

It's not ideal but we'll just have to make do for now.

I don't agree with that.

 

Carroll has missed plenty of easy chances. Kuyt has missed a fair few as well, but at least with Kuyt he moves defenders around and offers more than just holding up the ball he links up with his teammates betetr than Carroll and closes defenders down better, winning possession if dangerous areas at times.

 

Kuyt has proven he can finish at this club, I just think he is having a lean spell. You don't go from scoring 15 goals one season to 0 the next.

 

Anyway both have been poor, some would choose Carroll, some would choose Kuyt... both have been as poor as each other. But I'd pick Carroll on Wednesday which is why I'd select Kuyt vs Bolton.

If Kuyt starts upfront alone again, then I'm throwing a few quid on the 0-0. He's offered fuck all this season & put in performances that the flack Carroll's took would justify. I like the guy but he hasn't had one even decent game since May. Living off past work rate which is also nowhere near what it used to be.

 

your right sadly

[kalasoma]

Is Maxi fit? I thought/heard he had a shoulder injury? If he's ok, I would expect to see him play this weekend. As well as Bellamy. It's a long time until the FA Cup 4th round.

[kalasoma]

What's the longest a striker has gone without scoring in the premier league? Surely, this curse must be lifted by now.

Kenny has never said he is injured when asked in the last three pre match conferences.

 

He didn't get in the last two squads, let's hope he gets in this one and starts.

[The Great Jacko]

I think Kuyt is showing that he needs to be played consistently. Be interesting to see what Carroll was like if he had that chance. Surely with Suarez's suspension he must be given this chance otherwise we'll never know, even if we think we know what the outcome will be.

[kalasoma]

Have we had Carroll and Kuyt start together up front this season yet?

[Guest LFD]

Be interesting to see what Carroll was like if he had that chance.

 

The list of excuses for Carroll are endless it seems...

[Guest ShoePiss]

0-2 Carroll, Henderson.

[Frankenhooker]

I hope Spearing is fit as that would enable Gerrard to play in a more advanced role. As we're away from home I can see us winning comfortably.

 

I'm going for 0-2, Gerrard early on and Bellamy getting a late goal.

[RedRazor]

I reckon the line up will be:-

 

Goal - Reina

 

Back four - Magic - Kelly - Skrtel - Agger - Carra -Aurelio - Flannagan - Enrique

 

Middle four - Maxi -Spearing - Henderson - Gerrard - Adam - Downing

 

Front two - Kuyt - Carrol - Bellamy

 

We'll batter em'

 

If Fosters sponsered LFC.........

 

(sorry - not very good at counting when I've had a few pints)

[Razoray]

William Hill are giving 7/1 for Gerrard to score a pen. I'll have a bit of that, especially when they have 2 reckless centre halves in Wheater and Knight.

[usernameunknown]

Still not sold out if anyone can get to the TO and fancies it. They really fucked up not dropping the requirements for this a lot sooner, dickheads.

[matt1983]

Whenever I've seen that Bogdan play he has been dire. Man of the match today, though. It is written.

He saved a shrek pelanty, and kept the score respectable against the wankers last weekend. But i agree, he looks poor. Luckily its at Anfield where opposing keepers have the game of their lives, so we atleast have a chance of scoring past him today, seeing as its at Bolton.

[silverlining]

0-2 Carroll, Henderson.

 

S'funny

[Redder Lurtz]

Oh for cock sake. I've organised my whole morning round watching the match at 3pm. Fuck off ESPN.

[Captain]

What's ESPN got to do with it?

[Eljeficito]

I'm guessing we will have 3 or 4 clear, clear cut chances and miss, aswell as having a rediculous amount of possession, perhaps 70%. N'gog will score around the 78th minute mark and we'll have no answer...

 

Either that or we'll twat them

[DooooodekNo5]

Bolton are dog shit and just sold their best defender i hope we just go at them from the off no pissing around but im not confident of it.

 

I can see it being the usual frustarting 0-0 at half time and then nicking a 1-0 in the last 20 minutes.

Fingers crossed. I avoid Bolton's games to be honest, but I remember him getting booed by his own fans at the Reebok earlier in the season after a couple of howlers. And of course he got made to look silly at the pit the other week.

 

I just hope we get bodies in the box today and take it to them. That Chelsea result should give the players a boost.

[SCOUSE TAPAS]

I don't agree with that.

Wouldnt play Kuyt up front even if he was the only fit striker we had fit.

 

Would rather put Gerrard up there on his own.

[piscinin]

3-0. Easy peasy this one.
