Match Day Thread Toon v Bindippers

Just back from Corfu, walked into the restaurant one night and was greeted by this. I was like FFS!

Anyway real world football not internet nonsense and we had a good chat about it all. Really nice guy. When he gave me the bill I said "thank **** for that I thought I was on Isak rates!" We both laughed.

Hope tonight is a good game unspoiled by the officials.

 

Apparently Mac allister Frimpong and the other right back.

 

We're down Willock,Longstaff and Wilson.

 

MacAllister is fit Bradley hasn't played enough but it's fit.

Alisson
Dom Konate VVD Kerkez
Gravenberch MacAllister
Wirtz
Salah Ekitike Gakpo
​

That's probably our line up.

 

I was sneaking on the Liverpool board earlier and they were saying MacAllister was not fit?
Anyhoo that’s a good line up.

 

Nothing in the press conference this suggest that. I think he'll start. RB is the issue with Szoboszlai probably having to cover.

 

And Isak. With Botman and Hall probably starting on the bench as not 100% fit yet.
So 3 of our first 11 missing from the starting line-up.

Add to that Thiaw and Ramsey probably not yet integrated into the squad enough (not for Eddie to start them at least), so again most likely both on the bench at best.

 

Take care out there people!

 

Decent line-up.

How are your lot feeling about transfers?
Seems like you've spent big on really improving quality in certain areas, but overall trimmed the squad numbers down? Is there plenty if cover / squad depth if the likes of Elliott also move?

 

We need a CB and (obviously) a striker. Which is nuts with the money we've spent but we've sold well to afford it (from what I've read).

I'd be a little worried if we didn't get a CB and I still don't understand the Quansah sale. We could manage without a striker.

 

Looks like your lot are still after Guehi and Palace are getting worried he could go for free in 1 year.

 

You can have Lascelles for just £30m or Krafth for just £25m (he can also cover at RB too).

 

Yeah need to get on with that.

 

Thanks but you know, probably not.

 

How’s @Magdad going. You must be on about 10 pints by now?

 

It's going to be a really tense one to watch this. Unless we are 4-0 up after 10 minutes I might just have to avoid this forum. And even then, I can't guarantee I'll be very engaging.

I am basically gearing up to be very angry with the match officials, especially VAR.

 

I’m the same. I’m quite tense. Might not post on here till after the game.
