We need to score quickly and get the game done in the first half. We’ve looked shaky as f#ck in recent games.
They drop on average every 5 games. They've got a congested fixture playing every 3 days... They will drop points before seasons end. We have to make sure we don't too. Problem is, whilst I do suspect City will drop at least 2 points before seasons end... I suspect we will too.
I'm going by west ham, Leicester, fulham, spurs. Won 2 drew 2. All games were led but equalised in. I could put palace as well i guess. Now i could also put city game down as we sat back there.
They also go on huge winning streaks. But yes, I think we’re all hoping that their fixture list pains them....whilst ours doesn’t!
On a more serious note I agree with this, think to stand a real chance it will be a case of keeping it goalless until at least ht, that'll crank up your nerves and the crowd even more. Score a couple of first half goals though and it's game over.
They're currently on their longest winning streak. They haven't won more in a row than they have at the moment this year, so due a fall.
VVD provides update Virgil van Dijk insists he will be available to play against Southampton on Friday, following an injury he suffered up in the Reds’ win over Tottenham. Van Dijk sustained an ankle injury in Liverpool’s 2-1 win over Spurs on Sunday. The defender left Anfield with ice on his ankle but the club’s medical staff will monitor his situation over the coming days. “It hurts. We have to take a look at it, but I will be fine for Friday,” he said.
Bit ****ish that really when he was never going to return to you, do understand why of course though. Virgil will definitely start imo.
