Pre-Match Thread | City v Liverpool

[sheblue]

pep says that kdb has trained today and is ‘a lot better’. his involvement tomorrow night will be subject to a late fitness test.

That's like auctioneers talk. You know the shite auctioneers spout "the property needs decorating" when that actually means the property needs to be demolished and rebuilt.
Pep has a bit of an auctioneer about him.
What he really means is kev is mad for it

I’ll be surprised if he starts. Bernardo a very good substitute. The key thing is that we’re solid against their front three. Our full backs have to concentrate on solid defence with back up where needed rather than going forward much. Sane and Silva will offer plenty of attacking threat down the left and Raheem and either Bernardo or Kevin down the right. I fancy Sergio to score. Who’s better able to cope with Firmino Stones or Vinny? Probably go Stones. Laporte is a no brainier and can help Danilo deal with Salah.

[Outcast]

Let them worry about us rather than us worry about them. Do what we are good at, show desire and hunger, I think lately we were too cocky and lacked hunger and focus. I dont think they are better than us pound for pound, the difference is they're showing more desire and urgency like we did last season. Hopefully our late fuck up should serve us to retrain that missing appetite, focus, desire and urgency.

Really hope Mehrez is hungry to make up for costing us three points at Anfield.

Fucks sake. I'm thick as fook but it would have been three points for us, three less for them. However it wasn't to be and we'll do this the hard way!

lol my brain is mush after this holiday period.

Scudqmore will want the Vermin to end his time with at least 1. I hope that rag Taylor does not become the talking point. Cheating diving twats will be at it all game.

Hi miss cost us two points and gained them one point.The points difference between what it is, and what it would have been if he'd scored is therefore three points.

In other words, had he scored and we win tonight, the gap would be just one point instead of four.

[Pretty Boy Lee]

Fucking nervous about this one. Cannot stand the thought of them winning at ours and ending our challenge this early. Barely been able to look at anything football related for a week or two.

[Hazy2]

Quick start early goal and take our fucking chances. Sterling to rip them to bits.

[PeterParker]

Eddie
Walker - Stones - Laporte - Danilo
Fern - Kevin - Merlin
Raheem - Sergio - Sane.

No other fucking option, no fucking around. Best we have.

Good XI. Though controversial as it is I'd have Gundogan in for KDB. He hasn't as yet got up to match sharpness yet and Gundogan would provide better foil with Fernandinho against the dippers press

I will be amazed if this match is not fairly refereed.

This match is too high profile for PL to risk 'helping' Liverpool.
If anything they will favor us as that would make business sense.
Get the gap to 4 which is still a nice cushion, people will still think it is a contest, from there the PL can easily control things, instruct the refs and help Liverpool coast to a PL win.
