Optimistic Nut Posted March 25, 2012 Share Posted March 25, 2012 We're in a position where even if we lose, they pretty much have to win 2 more games than us in 8. Unlikely. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRon Posted March 25, 2012 Share Posted March 25, 2012 Hmmmm, with Colo out I'd snatch a draw if offered. It's the one game I want to win more than any other this season though. Same here. I hate the thought of us lising to them but with Colo out it's going to be a big ask. A draw would be like a victory tbh. If we had our two first choice central defenders fit I'm pretty sure we'd beat them the way they have been playing of late. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beren Posted March 25, 2012 Share Posted March 25, 2012 Sort of mixed feelings about how we should approach this game. On the one hand, I feel very encouraged by today's showing - and our first-half showing lends weight to the belief we can tear through teams and really do some damage with our firepower. I feel like we should play to those strengths, and in doing so, keep the spotlight off our Colo-less defence. On the other hand, Liverpool love sitting back against teams who come on to them, and breaking (obviously without committing too many men) when the teams which are good enough to attack them get frustrated by their admittedly admirable work-rate, harrying and defensive shape. Be interesting to see how Pardew sets his stall out. We're at home, and (all of a sudden!) in good form. Definitely should take the initiative and take the game to them, whilst being wary of the tactical landscape. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we had our two first choice central defenders fit I'm pretty sure we'd beat them the way they have been playing of late. Yep. They're in terrible form and we've been much better in general over these last two games, however they seem to rise to the occasion, especially away from home. I think our lads will have something to prove to Jose mind, I'm expecting a draw tbh and that'd be a great result given it'd leave us 8 points ahead of them still.

Tiresias Posted March 25, 2012 Share Posted March 25, 2012 there's not much fight in the Liverpool team, they can score goals (is bellamy injured though, or Dagliesh mad very mad just a random series of decisions with no logic behind them whatsoever) but if we can get a goal past them or two on their present form should be alright. They have flashes of very good play, but too many players messing it up. If they go ahead first think they'll win though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest BlacknWhiteArmy Posted March 25, 2012 Share Posted March 25, 2012 I'd be confident about a win with Colo but despite Perch's resurgence I feel Suarez will run riot through the middle. Perhaps should be a case of attack being the best form of defence and get in and around Carragher. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tiresias Posted March 25, 2012 Share Posted March 25, 2012 Just gonna have to try to defend from the front and hope Tiote's back and does his job. this. Hate to set up overly defensive and just get nothing from it when we concede anyway and don't have much to offer going forward. If Carraghers playing just get Ben Arfa to run at him and he'll probably just give up and do one of his customary own goals. Gotta make sure not too much space left behind, hope ref doesn't pay any attention to suarezs theatrics. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Belfast Boy Posted March 25, 2012 Share Posted March 25, 2012 It has been great watching Liverpool struggle recently but they have an annoying habit of making a much bigger effort in the big games. I am bringing my daughter across for her first game so I just hope we get a goal at least. If we start well and have the confidence to go for it then it could be a memorable day.

BoSelecta Posted March 25, 2012 Share Posted March 25, 2012 Krul Santon Willo Perch Ferg Cabaye Tiote Jonas B.Arfa Cisse Ba If we played this id be far more confident. Having Willo and Simpson on the same side of defence is dreadful to watch. We tend to play it around for a while then once one of these clowns gets it its always hoofed long. Im thankful for the efforts theyve put in this season, but beyond that id like for them to never play for us again. 4-2 Cisse 2 HBA 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
morpeth mag Posted March 25, 2012 Share Posted March 25, 2012 Not Simpsons biggest fan at all believing his lack of quality on the ball hinders us. But have to say he's done well the sat two games and deserves his place for his defensive work which we'll need without Colo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
