    Date - Wednesday 02 / 03 / 22


    Venue - Anfield


    KO - 20 : 15


    TV - ITV


    After thrashing the Oligarchs plaything next , for the 47th time this season , we face Norwich the only difference being this is in the FA Cup . Think it is safe to assume mass changes by us for this game and probably by Norwich as well since they have a , very , slim chance of staying up .

    I would add more but i’m fairly pissed so thats all folks


    PL 17-6-2

    CL 6-0-0

    LC 5-0-0 - W

    FAC 2-0-0

    Nice. Itv. Brill.

    Have to wonder how we will go this time.

    Alisson/kelleher
    Bradley? Gomez konate tsimikas
    Jones milner morton
    Minamino origi Jota

    Have the big guns on the bench, it's 5 subs allowed so we can roll them if needed.

    The big one is West sham on Saturday as must win. We can apply pressure for the mancshite Derby the next day

    can't call the team but yeah expect a second string at best though would guess AOC starts along with Gomez Konate Bradley .

    Completely forgot the ox. Says it all.

    It'd be a bit much to start ox, Jones and milner tbh.

    Only one klopp has not won.

    King Kenny has all 3 domestic trophies and is only lfc manager to have done it.

    If klopp could win that as well this season it'd be amazing.

    He would then be the only manager we have to have won 6 of the 7 trophies possible and he reached the final of that.

    League
    League cup
    Cl
    Super cup
    World club rubbish

    If he wins the fa Cup then the europa is the only miss on the wall of champions.

    Paisley didn't do that. ***an didn't do it. Shankly didn't. Dalglish didn't, houlier didn't.

    It'd be quite a unique place in lfc history.

    Norwich have Brentford on the weekend and we have West Ham. Both probably focussed on those games, but we should hopefully have enough for them in Wednesday.

    Of course they will give it their all, but it'll be the second string playing.

    He'll not complete the set because we'll not compete in the Europa League or Conference Cup thing (still don't even know what this is).

    we have already secured CL for next season. The best arsenal are doing in their final 14 games is about 25 points. that means 70. theres no ****ing way west sham are getting that and man utd will be lucky to get near it.

    We need 4 wins from 12 games to be at worst 4th and frankly 2nd is far more likley even with the most average end to season.

    the FA cup will be second string. theres 3 games til the final. Norwich , QF, SF. who knows what the teams will be or the results but we will give it a much better go as the squad is reasonable.

    The CL is the big one where we need a bit of luck with the next draw after hopefully controlling the next game away and cruising into QF.

    The league is 12 finals. of course west sham is the bigger game this week now.

    But...

    Kelleher
    Bradley Gomez Konate Tsimikas
    Jones Milner Kieta
    Ox Origi Minamino

    Its not "horrendeous" to play that and launch diaz, salah, fabinho, VVD and mane on after 60mins.

    I think we have a chance at least and frankly dean smith isn't going to say much bar go give your best shot at this. If we score first then they might well fold.

    Never the second string was horrendous, just that it'll be them playing.

    I'd happily take an FA Cup so long as it didn't affect our run in for the PL and CL

    Our single biggest challenge in the next 2 weeks is west sham IMO. we have a full on set of fixtures now and our good work in CL hopefully means we can control through that.

    Arsenal will be tricky but not horrid and brighton likely harder than them. If we beat norwich then the man utd game will be PP'd

    March will decide much imo. these squad players will need the games to get a bit sharper and IMO if they can manage a cup run it should get them more ready to contribute in the league and CL.

    I see it as win win personally as long as the draw is not horrid.

    Nice easy game after the cup win, can't complain about that.

    Kelleher
    Bradley gomez ibu kostas
    Jones Milner naby
    Gordon bigdiv Diaz

    Should be more than enough to win that game and rest up some cup heroes
