***Official Match Thread | Liverpool v City***

[ruralblue]

I wouldn't pick Gundogan or Mahrez unless there are injuries or it's a League cup game. They are both not good enough, Gundogan in particular slowing us down.

Gundog will start cause Pep loves him. Sees somethimg we don't. Yes he can have spectacular moments and matches but he isn't consistent. Rather Fern protecting the back four and Foden for David.

[Sparklehorse]

Win, lose or draw. we will still be the greatest side that ever played in the Premier League and they will still be a bunch of cunts.

Absolutely !!

[Sparklehorse]

Just watched sky Liverpool v City “best goals” 10 for Liverpool 4 for City........cunts !!!

[Dimples]

Is everyone forgetting that Liverpool did not beat us in the PL last year
We are over the fear factor with them.

Play everyone in their natural position and let them worry about us.

Big decision 1 : cbs Stones & Otter
Big decision 2: left back Mendy
Big decision 3: central midfield Fern, De Bruyne, B. Silva

Lets go

Really disappointed with Gundo. Seems like he's got his contract and now he's gone back to being half-arsed.

Since when did PeP play every player in their natural position ? Injuries forced him to at times and at others he had players on the bench but decided against playing them.

I cannot remember a game where every player played in their natural positions.

[zuricity]

What a pratt Lawro is
"I think Liverpool will try to do the same here, especially because it is against Anfield. Jurgen Klopp's side will just press the living daylights out of them, and I am not sure City will be able to hold out."

[Saul Goodman]

Really wish we had Sane to make TAA actually defend.

I fairness we have a shed load of titles doing it the Pep way.

I know - it’s a pisser picking faults for his tactics but even Pep is not beyond a slagging off for fucking up (which he does do and rightly gets taken to task over it )

Yep he does get it wrong sometimes - like CL away game against Spurs last year
But his coaching methods improve players and he makes them multi-dimensional i.e. they can play different positions/roles
The cost of that improvement and flexibility is costly mistakes and bad results from time to time
That is what I mean by play every player in their natural position at Clanfield
Forget about improvements, flexibility, formations. Reduce to a minimum the potential mistakes that that approach brings.

Put the players in roles that they are comfortable with and go get a win.
I think we will do both.

Pep does frustrate boys me I sit behind him, and you see he has a plan the players have the information get the fuck on with it, yet he still runs 10k from the dug out to his tech box going mental. Klanfield for me is 3 points that can ruin us or the vermin. I love Pep he is not beyond being called out, but lets face it he sees football 10 steps ahead of anything we would ever think..... That's why he is the best !

[salford city]

If he plays Fern at CB on Sunday we will get hammered. Got to have him in front of the back four. Early in the season it might be, but we win this game & we will be well on the way to winning the league for a treble - another milestone for us. Got to go back to having Fern in the midfield for this though

[Outcast]

The debate of Fern playing here or there might be irrelevant. We are going 352, that's the formation the vermins cant handle

[Nick]

I think we all know:

1) pep will play dinho CB
2) pep will come leftfield with the lineup

3) he will probably start gundo, and no chance of foden.


Disagree with Carl, ederson with one leg over bravo. Hes gone back to being a clown and the defence need a stable figure.

I'd go garcia and stones or stones and otter. Otter is Jekyll and hyde. But both stones and otter have more than a few brain fucks in them, especially in front of bravo.

[Nickyboy]

Been talking with the lads at work and we reckon we might surprise them and go 3 at the back

Stones
Otter
Fern

Walker
Mendy

Having proper wing backs pins back Robertson and TAA and Fern can slot in and out of the back 3 when in and out of possession

KDB Bernie Foden

Sergio Sterling

What an awesome front 5 with Jesus to come in as required. Let those fuckers try and deal with that!

Pretty sure we played wing backs when we dicked them 5-0

I like the look of that and would be happy playing Fern there in this formation. Will Pep have the courage to take it to them like this? Hope so

[salford city]

What is it with these cunts? Reading on the beeb how that bloke who got attacked in Rome - note nothing said about him goading the Roma fans earlier, is returning to Anfield for the first time on Sunday. Proper fcuking victim mentality, horrible, horrible bastards
