Match Day Thread Vs Barcelona (A)

I reckon Klopp sits down before each game, looks at the names he has available for midfield for a few minutes, then says "Ah, **** it" - sticks them in a hat and pulls three out.

 

He does the same approach for substitutions

 

Looks at the bench and says "Who hasn't had a go for a bit?"

 

Decent shout. Can’t help but think we’ll deploy the midfield deeper in the away game and spring forward on the break at pace - I wouldn’t want to see tons of space between our back line and midfield - messi would have a field day

 

Agreed, sit in and let the front three do their thing

 

I was agreeing with you.

 

As in what We do all the time in Europe....

Yeah I'm sure we all agree. It'll be a desperate game

 

Space is there to get at them, need midfield to be on there passing game

 

A Solid team is a thing to be gazed on with awe as it majestically brushes away the opposition with a stunning combination of finesse & power .

 

Victory, draw or narrow loss. As long as we get an away goal or two

 

Personal attacks? You're a sensitive soul. I'm used to Jeff's. You take pessimism to a whole new level. I know it's only because you care, but sometimes, less is more x

 

One of the Robben brothers?

 

I am sensitive


My missus says less is more too

 

i wouldn't kiss RHC as we Do know where he has been

 

So, a close 2nd place in the league with potentially 97 points. Next season we must aim for 100 points to stand any chance of winning it.

Thankfully we have the champions league and a real chance of getting to the final. We can get at them.

 

No not really. can never tell what will happen for year to year.

city could.blow up and end up on 80 points next year.. so could we.

I do hope we can work an angle.v Barca as they are susceptible but the reality is.... our prior form says we will make it a dogfight of an away game and play to the front 3.

we don't pass it like city or Barca.

if you watch both sides they pass to retain ball. I'll pass to you but the intent is the man can see who is on me and on the next guy and he's no intent of taking a touch, he's got his back to his opponent so they do 20 one touch passes to work the right position to then go fast.

the ball moves they don't. so for them they never run as far as we would do.

We will long cross the park or long at Salah looking for an angle. we will lose the ball a lot. we will then scrap.for.it.

city are an awesome side and so are Barca but they both have exactly the same weakness at the back.

If you watched burnely.aimlessly.kick it today you know why city are rarely in trouble. chances are the aimless Hoof is not at the one forward it needs to be at.

 

Dangerous game to play in this tie. Can we stop Barca scoring at Anfield? We need at least one away goal imo

 

Mate, your one step away from flicking the light switch on and off 47 times or the world will end. Lol.

I wouldn't worry about rhc, he's a prick to everyone, he doesn't pick on people and he doesn't discriminate, just quietly abusive to anyone he crosses paths with.

 

yes we do but we've done the same all season in Europe. the more space there is for front 3 to run into the more the can catch Barca.

 

One step away ?
I have to do that and then throw a bullseye and fold the corner of the bottom piece of cheese over
