Liverpool vs Newcastle

 

This is a tough-looking game for Liverpool against a Newcastle side that I feel have played better and should have more points than their league position and tally suggests so far.

 

It is a massive game for Reds boss Brendan Rodgers too. There is absolutely nothing wrong with the way his teams play the game but the problem is they have to get results too.

 

Last weekend's draw with Everton was a good one, considering where both sides are in the league, and it would have been even better if Luis Suarez's late goal had been allowed to stand.

 

But Wednesday's defeat by Swansea in the Capital One Cup was poor and that sort of inconsistency in performances and results is probably about right for where they are as a team at the moment.

 

The Magpies are far more of a unit and also so potent in attack - even without Demba Ba, who is rated as 50-50 to play because of a shin injury.

 

Liverpool are quite the opposite, with Suarez their only fit senior striker, something which must have Rodgers holding his breath every time the Uruguayan plays because, if something happens to him, they are in massive trouble.

 

Understandably, the Reds are being linked with strikers, and there have been reports they will try to buy Ba in January. If his knee is OK, which it appears to be, it would make perfect sense for them to try to buy him.

 

Rodgers spent £11m on Fabio Borini in the summer but, if I had the choice of him or Ba, who still has a £7.5m release clause in his contract, then I know where I would have been shopping.

 

Prediction: 2-1

 

 

Not a parody write-up.^

It's quite funny that when he finally gives us a compliment for playing well, it's when we're quite clearly not.

Also, Ronaldo's new-found, live and let live attitude towards others reminds me of Dennis from Heartbreak High.

 

I hope someone else knows what I'm on about here like.

:lol: I started really getting into Heartbreak High for a while, then it just suddenly disappeared from the schedules.  Can't remember anything about it really though.

I remember watching it, one hot girl and a kid with a horrific curtains haircut.

 

Oh, and there was an Italian guy who played "soccer" I think. The rest were turd at it.

As if Ba would be interested in going to Liverpool man :lol:

 

of course he would.  Fantastic club full of proud tradition in the ex-Capital of Culture, excellent passionate fans and the opportunity to win every trophy under the sun.  It would be an honour to see him there.

Everyone would be interested in more money, and I still think they have more pull than us. :dontknow:

 

Pouring scorn on the very idea seems daft to me.

 

I concur.  They'd likely offer him higher wages than us, historically bigger club with a recent record of success and worldwide profile and a board showing ambition to improve.  He'd go if they came in for him I think.

I'm not sure it's as cut and dry an issue as it may once have been though, also every player is different, you do tend to always say players would prefer them. If we're offering the same wages I struggle to see why players would choose them nowadays.

Newcastle v Swansea

 

Newcastle are badly in need of a win from this game after West Ham went to St James' Park last weekend and did a job on them.

 

The Magpies seem unable to put two good performances together, which might be down to a little bit of a hangover from last season when they had such a productive campaign.

 

They might also be suffering from the same problem as Manchester City, in that some of their key players are not under any pressure for their place in the team.

 

Swansea's draw at Southampton last week was their first away point since their opening-day win at QPR, and they do not seem to be the best of travellers.

 

But they do have some competition for places, which is a sign of progress.

 

Ki Sung-yeung is injured will be absent from the Swans' midfield but people like Kemy Agustien, Nathan Dyer and Danny Graham are all hoping for a return to the starting line-up, depending on which formation Michael Laudrup goes for.

 

Prediction: 2-0

I just think both clubs are in very similar situations right now, but with us being arguably better and more likely to improve in the near future what with Liverpool going from crisis to crisis. I also think that if he had to pick between us and them he would chose us again because he is settled here and has no doubt made good friends within the squad, he would be stupid to leave that for a club that could well finish below us.

 

Money is literally the only reason he would go imo and unless Liverpool sell Suarez I don't think they would be able to improve significantly on what we're already giving him, which I think (I might be wrong) is higher than average here given that we got him for free?

Stoke v Newcastle

 

Newcastle are in the middle of a sticky patch and this is a horrible game for them to try to end it.

 

When you have lost three league games in a row, as the Magpies have, and you are short of players because of injuries then the last place you want to go is the Britannia Stadium, especially when Stoke have started to win games, albeit narrowly.

 

Having seen Newcastle lose at Southampton on Sunday, I can only see that pattern continuing on Wednesday.

 

They were far too open against Saints, who created a host of chances.

 

The Potters represent a very different test, and far more of a physical battle. I don't see it as being a fight that the Magpies can win.

 

Newcastle boss Alan Pardew must be wondering where his next win is going to come from. I don't think it is going to be at Stoke.

 

Prediction: 1-0

 

Generous.

Fulham are having a wobble. They have gone seven games without a win and have lost three out of their last four.

 

Newcastle know that feeling too, having ended their four-game losing streak with a much-needed victory over Wigan last Monday.

 

The good news for the Cottagers is that Brede Hangeland will be back from his suspension and I think they might just get the result they have been waiting for.

 

The Magpies are beset by injuries and it has been a difficult season for them so far.

 

They will start to pick up points soon, when players return to fitness, but the silver lining for Alan Pardew is that his shortage of players might mean they buy one or two more players in January than they were going to.

 

Like Fulham, I think Pardew's side are looking at a mid-table finish. It might not be the giddy heights of last season but they can still end up in the top half.

 

Prediction: 2-1

 

Off to the bookies with a tenner on a toon win.
