Match Day Thread West Ham v Liverpool

[Super G Ted'inho]

and at least two strikers to score the goals. Right now I can't see anybody scoring. Definitely not Benteke, unless the goalie is lying down dead

We've been really fortunate to experience that seven times already this season

 

[Jimmy Squarefoot]

We're not launching ball after ball into the box though.

What frustrates me is this insistence that we have to play a different way to get the best out of Benteke, we don't! Play the same way with one slight change; when it goes wide cross early! That is it!!!

It still won't work. Because Benteke can't move in the box. Watch his runs and he always goes to the far post. He doesn't know to run across his man.

In more positive news -

Emre Can is the only player from the midfield forward to have not lost possession today vs [HASHTAG]#WHU[/HASHTAG].

Coutinho is tricky, if he was receiving the ball to feet inside the area, we might even win a pen, he would certainly cause panic.

Stop lumping **** crosses at Benteke cos when a good one eventually arrives he'll not bust a nut to get it

 

[Super G Ted'inho]

We end up floating it as he's never in space and position for an early cross. Every time we break he runs towards Collins, never mind space. Collins must think Benteke is a duckling who's seen his image as soon as he came out of the egg.

Maybe he's never there because the early criss never comes?

We've not put early crosses in for years. Not since Torres was the dogs bollox at least.

No Changes

Tbf, Benteke could have done with a better ball there.

and ffs put cout behind benteke, and central not wide

How the **** do you know if we've never tried it? [HASHTAG]#pointandcase[/HASHTAG]

Clyne needs to sort himself out as wel - I didn't expect him to be so poor on the ball.

aarrrrrghhhhhh

 

[Ivan Dobsky]

Oh ffs! Great work by Ibe just for Ford to welly it!

infuriating

 

[Rorschach]

come on Coutinio you can't look to shoot EVERY time

 

[Jimmy Squarefoot]

Ibe, Firmino and Can have played ok.

Coutinho, Lucas and Benteke have been the worst.

 

[jaffaSlot]

Just need to hope other teams drop points this weekend

 

[FedLadSonOfAnfield]

That Firmino has the wrong name for him seeing as he's a super soft batard

 

[Ivan Dobsky]

that's one way to find space Benny, just stand five yards offside.

 

[jaffaSlot]

Firmino has been a liability

 

[always a red]

Benteke again at it.

 

[FedLadSonOfAnfield]

This is better but Wham with 10 behind the ball in their own box you're not finding a way thru
