Scousers vs Geordies @ Anfield

I sense a hammering where a lot of our best players will be out or just rested as we park the bus and accept defeat.

I'm gong 4-0 Liverpool. They've picked up form. We haven't loss but our squad looks already weakened by injuries.

Not gonna bother with a line up because of all the injuries.

Edit -

I'd happily sit back and just hope for a draw in this one -

Rest ASM, Trippier, Willock, Bruno - All of them holding their hamstrings.

I'd play this

-------------------Wood----------------
Almiron-Joelinton-Longstaff---Fraser
Targett---Burn--Schar-Botman--Manquillo
--------------------Pope-----------------------

 

Do we accept a hammering and let our players recover for Palace on saturday? That's a tough home game but far more winnable.

 

Yes

i think we have to rotate the squad.

I would be tempted to put a reasonably young team out and just run after them.

We could craft a frustrating draw out of it.

Anderson to start instead of ASM.

Manq if he is fit instead of Trips.

I WOULD stick with Wood up top.

 

3-0

 

Nah, we'll surprise them.

They will assume an easy home win after their rampant thumping of Bournemouth and seeing our injury list.

Then Eddie will surprise them as he fields a full strength team that is up for the win.

 

**** this, free hit.

Just beat Palace.

Why are so many of our players getting problems with their hammies?
Is it something to do with the training?

 

Trippier played mid week

Willock played mid week

ASM is ASM. He always holds something of himself every game.

 

Jesus christ they've got no chance.

Hammys are 4 weeks

Incoming fast

 

Pope
Manq
Botman
Schar
Target
Willock
Anderson
Joelinton
Almiron
Fraser
Isak

 

Nah he's done his hammy

 

Bruno off to Madrid

 

Probably has a release clause

 

If Newcastle being in Pedro and a CM in Time for Wednesday it would help.

 

Have you seen something about this Mick, or is just 2 + 2 = 3,576?

 

No, me and chaos winding up FosseFilberto about Maddison's " mystery injury " ie off to Newcastle, was just causing mischief

 

Basically this. Howe has made the call to play them to give us a cup run. But they can’t play 2 games a week in an effective pressing system.

 

If we win though.
