The Merseyside Derby (h) - Dec 11

[Thoth]

The Bitters will think they can win this now

[suzy]

Ha Ha Klopp is bonkers.. didn’t see that team being selected

 

Tbh he’s fooled us with his selections recently and they’ve worked. Really making me nervous though!

[Thoth]

Are firmino and Coutinho on the bench?

Yup

[manwiththestick]

Are firmino and Coutinho on the bench?

Yep. I'd bring them on straight away.

[suzy]

Are firmino and Coutinho on the bench?

Yes

[Megadrive Man]

Our strongest front four would destroy that Everton team. Now I'm not so sure?

[El Rojo]

Glad that Milner’s in for this one. Great opportunity for Solanke against that yard dog Williams.

[Nelly-Szoboszlai]

Maybe he's going for a Momo Ali rope-a-dope tactic?

 

Foreseeing that they'd have come for a point, but starting a weakened team to get them to be a bit bolder, then bring the proper lads on late on to do the business and get a late win.

[Sputnik1]

Happy to see Phil come on when the dirty fuckers have a few yellow cards, otherwise he will just get kicked about all first half. Seems people are forgetting how lightweight Phil can be against these park the bus, physical shithouse teams.

[magicrat]

Not sure about Solanke starting.  Got some good options on the bench if they manage to frustrate us into the 2nd half,  Not a game we want to be gifting them a lead to defend, 

[Thoth]

By the way in answer to my own post on another thread.. Claire Rourke.. yes I would.. twice

Good point on sky just now by souness, fat Sam could use this team selection to say we don’t rate them so to use it as motivation

[Jairzinho]

I think we all agree with that

[an tha]

Oh FFS - what is it with us and not playing our best team in big games

 

We lose this today and Klopp is inviting flack with that line up.

 

He has a front line on fire so he dismantles it in the derby!

[Baltar]

Odd selection but Klopp has put out a few unusual lineups and they've got the job done so hopefully we will again today.

Looks like the end is nigh for Sturridge. Not even on the bench (unless he's injured).

[Aventus]

Clearly Klopp sees Everton for the bottom half of the table alehouse cunts they are, and has chosen a team to suit the occasion.

 

We can't play our best front 4 every game, and there's plenty of matches to be played in the next month or so, we shit the bed a bit by January last year and ran out of steam, I think he's trying to avoid that this time around.

 

Calm down you bunch of fannies, we'll beat them 2-0 instead of 5-0 it's not a big deal.

[Dr Nowt]

It's fine. We're great chasing a deficit against a shithouse side with everyone behind the ball who've scored from a deadball.

[Kevin D]

I said it when he was appointed, and I've been proven right by this selection, Klopp wants to destroy this football club.

[Guest]

Wasn't Solanke involved in a goal or two against Brighton? I think it's a masterstroke and we'll batter the bitters with better butter on top.

[lebron]

While most were surprised at Conte for naming a mostly unchanged lineup, they're equally surprised at Jurgen changing his lineup... I dom't think we will do worse than Chelsea tbh...

[Bamo]

Tight hamstring so should be ok by ....... Easter

[aRdja]

Coutinho didn’t train yesterday apparently according to twitter, so maybe that’s why?

[Hand Shandy]

Ballsy... Think Solanke will have a blinder, while Mo and Sadio will administer a dry bumming.

 

 

 

 

 

 

I hope.

[TheBitch]

I'm a fan of a bold statement.

 

I'm not a fan of this one though.
