Team against Liverpool

[Enricky.]

Already a match thread on the Liverpool Board. They are expecting a tough match.

Even more so now that Coutinho is out until the end of October

We've just got to hope that Sturridge, Moses and Gerrard can do a good job still.

Let's hope Liverpool picked up a few knocks last night.

Coutinho

 

[Red Hadron Collider]

Yeah, hope Courtinho takes a week out, that would help us a fair bit. Whens the biter back?

After this game.

We have cover, but he is special. I didn't know you lot were interested in him.

Yes we were rumoured to have bid. Have just started a match thread so feel free to comment there as well RHC.

Reports were that we had a bid accepted, but Coutinho wanted to wait on the interest from Liverpool and (IIRC) Tottenham. Was a disappointment, because over the past twelve months our transfers have settled into a rather odd pattern, and one of the defining features of those various sagas has been the sentence "X, who has been linked extensively to Liverpool...". Not fair when you actually sign one of the players who you're rumoured to be competing for!

Pochettino had him at Espanyol. It didn't ever look likely, but there was definitely interest.

Hi Mowgli. I've watched it a couple of times and can't agree that Victor was immense. He improved in the second half but gave the ball away far too often for me.

A lot of players struggled in the first half adjusting to the conditions. The ball was consistently pulling up short on a few passes and not bouncing as people expected. He wasn't perfect though and I agree he improved second half.

 

[Super G Ted'inho]

Your team lamb, is an open invitation for Liverpool to attack us down the flanks.

Before signing Moses, I'd have said that was a good tactic as we're usually quite narrow, we ask the FBs to provide the width.

Cheers Gerrez exactly my thinking.

Same as us then.
