Spurs away

[Major Tom]

I'm pleased to see Rodgers has still got time to send the team round by text. Tranny or no tranny.

 

Committed.

This thread is funny. 3-5-2, 442, 433. Just because 352 didn't work at Arse, people up in arms about it, Arse were good on the day & would have had us chasing shadows whatever, that's what the Arse can do to you, I certainly wouldn't take that as definitive proof that that formation doesnt work. I don't mind what formation we play as long as we fuckin turn up & give a good account of ourselves. 352 sounds ok to me with the players we have available.

Down to 5th before we play them.

Yep. Have a none too good feeling about this game.

 

Suarez will prove me wrong, though. Obviously.

[niallers]

8 points from next 5 and it'll be a very decent return. Obviously a few defeats on the spin could derail our momentum but a few good results could kick us on even more.

[Paco]

2 victories and another arsenal defeat we re top of league at christmas

[JohnnyH]

Let's just worry about tomorrow, eh?

[Hand Shandy]

Well get snotted.

[Hand Shandy]

We'll even...

[Joey8FrogsLegs]

Think we'll have massive problems defending on our left. They have plenty of pace down that side and no matter who playes LB for us I think we'll be in trouble. Very very surprised by all the praise for Flanagan, I think he'll have massive problems if he plays tomorrow.

 

Not at all confident about this one, anything but defeat will be a pleasant surprise.

Why don't you try getting behind the lads, for a change, eh?

 

A novel idea, I know, but try it.

A bit harsh there ,   fairly sure it's not a crime to take one game at a time mate ?

What does "get behind the lads" actually mean?

 

Sure, support the players at the match, but making posts on an internet forum doesn't affect the team.

@BassTunedToRed: In 2013, #LFC and Spurs have an identical PL record: W18 D9 L6. However, LFC have conceded 1 fewer & scored 29 (TWENTY-NINE!) more goals.

[Dr. J]

We are way past due to turn over a decent side away from home. Today is the day. Feeling good about this match - just hope we go there thinking of win.

[MLB]

If we take the game to them we will win. If we fart around and cede the advantage to them we probably won't.

Thats it really. I have a feeling we will play on the counter though.

[Babb'sBurstNad]

I think we'll end up counter attacking, it seems a creeping inevitability when we play a decent team away.

 

Spurs' back line goes ragged when they're allowed to get forward, so counter attacking might not be such a bad idea as I can't see us maintaining much possession in the middle.

 

I'm just hoping if Flanno plays he doesn't get turned inside out or sent off against Walker and Lennon. We're light on fullbacks and it's the kind of thing that could wreck his confidence.

 

Fingers crossed for a cheeky 0-1, Suarez to pinch it at the end.

[Gym Beglin]

Spurs will come out at 100mph.

 

We need Coutinho playing close to Suarez, otherwise Suarez will be left isolated again.

 

I don't think we've got anyone capable of playing wide against a juggernaut like Walker, because Moses and Sterling will just try to out run him, they've got no cunning about them, and that suits Walker perfectly.

 

I think we will attack narrow, as Spurs will push forward, and then we get Coutinho, Allen and Suarez trying to put something together and expose their centre backs.

 

Lucas vs Sandro will be interesting.

[Gnasher]

I can't stand spurs or their stupid avb manager, crouching on the touch line with his fist on his chin trying to look all intelligent when staring at the players bollocks. Fucking weirdo.

[Paco]

We need to score first and then score again because I dont trust us defensively.

 

Although I dont think any team is defending well this season. I think we re seeing a bit of a footballing revolution at the minute. I cant remember seeing so many big teams playing such open football and conceding so many goals.

 

Possibly a reaction to the pragmatic football we saw in the last decade.

[Stickman]

Just hope we score early so we don't have that fucking awful "Oh when the Spuuuuuurrrrrss gooooo marching in".......the most dreary fucking football song going....

 

God I hate Spurs fans even more than Arsenal supporters.

Personally, I think that is one of the better football songs and preferable to singing songs far too quickly like a lot of our fans do nowadays. Also, why the fuck do we still sing that terrible Campione song?

[chrisbonnie]

if we had played this game yesterday, id have backed us to beat Spurs. 

 

But i can never back us to win when our closest rivals have lost the day before hand. We always bottle it when we have a chance to capitalise
