Where did I say I thought they'd beat you? I just countered your daft comment that they were mugs, they're far from mugs.
I agree on Wijnaldum and Hendo they are not playing well. Can Chamberlain Coutinho That's an option for the midfield.
This is probably the toughest game of our group as we seem to do better away usually for some reason. A win here will put us on a good position.
I played as the guy that ran around a lot fouling people and getting battered by the ones that knew what they were doing.
The thing about this game is mane can now focus on CL for the first few games I think we will need to improve on the things i have been nit picking on to beat this lot. We are good on the ball going forward but our positional discipline is so so poor.
Mane misses Burnley at home, Leicester away (LC) and Leicester away. He wouldn't have played in the League cup anyway.
yeah.... i mean ok what do we do v Burnely now. its a must win home game but it won't be easy. Coutinho? Sturrdige? League cup we wee always blowing off IMO Leicester away will certainly miss his pace and directness.
So were you in a crumpled heap after I'd steamed through you or one of the ****s that would shove the handle of that ****ing stick right up under my ribs? I think I already know the answer though.
We have to do better than we did against Burnley last year. Haven't we? The league cup will be more or less a B team I assume, and look upon it as a bonus if we scrape through. The problem with losing Mané is that if we bring in Sturridge, say, it'll probably push Firmino out wide where he's pretty ineffective most of the time. Best we keep him central and Coutinho plays on the left, imo.
