The Cat Posted 17 November, 2017 Share Posted 17 November, 2017 So, where does everyone tend to congregate for prematch drinking? Somewhere near Goodison Park. General rule for a Merseyside away game is to drink in the pubs of the home fans of their rivals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red Posted 18 November, 2017 Share Posted 18 November, 2017 FYI - for any Saints fans with Sky in Ireland it is a live game on Sky 402. For rest it will at least ensure there will lots of good streams available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Convict Colony Posted 18 November, 2017 Share Posted 18 November, 2017 After watching all the matches and being bored rigid by our style I'm gonna miss the game out of choice today. I thought about it last night and he reminds me of Graham Taylor when in charge of eng when he kept picking Carlton Palmer ahead of better flair players. The current system does not work and inhibits scoring, if he finally gives 3 at the back a try we may have better luck and a better system for our players. Good luck tho and hopefully I come on here and eat humble pie or take credit for a positive result. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dusic Posted 18 November, 2017 Share Posted 18 November, 2017 Matip is out for them so will likely be Lovren and Klavan at the back - not a secure pairing. Lemina's mobility a huge miss for us against them. Not a game for JWP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ericofarabia Posted 18 November, 2017 Share Posted 18 November, 2017 What is the gurning twonk on about now? Having a rant at last seasons draw at Anfield, complaining that FF's gamesmanship with Milner before saving the penalty could have cost them 4th spot and Champs League Football. "It looked like it was really strange and not completely fair. I don’t forget last season. It was a very decisive situation for us, they didn’t need the points". Is he saying we should have just laid down and let them have an easy 3 points? What an absolute tosspot. Pretty please, can we win and have the joy of Klippity Klopp have more of his mental breakdowns on the touchline. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pamplemousse Posted 18 November, 2017 Share Posted 18 November, 2017 It doesn’t even make sense, because they qualified for the Champions League. He’s bitter about something that didn’t happen! He is a plonker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saint_Tony Posted 18 November, 2017 Share Posted 18 November, 2017 For the last few seasons I've always felt we 've had a chance in these games but just cannot see anything other than a comfortable win for Liverpool. We need to get shot of MP straight after the game. Sent from my SM-G920F using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well that's not true, Gabbi can come on and play one of the wide places, Boufal could move out wide, Austin could come on and Long go wide, JWP arguably played his best for us wide right...

Wade Garrett Posted 18 November, 2017 Share Posted 18 November, 2017 I'd like to have seen Gabbi playing wide. Their real weakness is at the back, we need to go at them. Not much chance of that though, if the season up until now is anything to go by. Hopefully Boufal will play in the middle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
captainchris Posted 18 November, 2017 Share Posted 18 November, 2017 So four in attack - just what we need against Liverpool... Tadic on the right - oh really skilful decision that! Have the Management team not yet noticed at all that Tadic cannot play on the right. They are literally the only people on this planet who think he can play on the right but he’ll lets keep doing that shall we. As for the goalkeeping situation well words just fail to come to mind... This Manager and or Black or whoever makes these decisions are verify of any coherent decisions ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SaintMB Posted 18 November, 2017 Share Posted 18 November, 2017 That line up fills me with dread. If we're gonna lose, may as well be by a lot of goals because it might actually trigger a reaction by the board (either with the coaches or with the purse strings).

Dangermouth Posted 18 November, 2017 Share Posted 18 November, 2017 I'm a bit confused. Hoedt is good in the air but a bit slow. Wasn't Yoshida meant to play against the smaller, nippy attackers and Hoedt against the big centre-forwards? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrfahaji Posted 18 November, 2017 Share Posted 18 November, 2017 I'm all for Hoedt and Yoshida rotating, but I'd have thought Hoedt would have been better against a side like Burnley, who are more of an aerial threat, while Yoshida would be better against a pacey Liverpool attack. But then, who am I to assume the coaching staff think about things like that... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Suhari Posted 18 November, 2017 Share Posted 18 November, 2017 At least Boufal gets a start. Strange selection having him, Redmond and Tadic starting. That midfield could get squashed today...... can't really see it working well enough to contain and hit on the break, and I doubt we'll come out on top if we go toe-to-toe. Would prefer PEH in for Redmond. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the saint in winchester Posted 18 November, 2017 Share Posted 18 November, 2017 Does not the manager realise that the same inputs game after game will give the same outputs? He seems to keep playing the same cards every time. Has he not seen his team shape and tactics are not working? Yet, he expects us to somehow come away winning games? I would be going 3-5-2 and trying a few fringe players - new ingredients to the mix. He may stumble on a winning formula! But no, same old same old.

Saint Albert Posted 18 November, 2017 Share Posted 18 November, 2017 I’m assuming that Yoshi did a lot of traveling over the international break, which may explain why Hoedt is playing in a game where Yoshi’s pace may have been more useful. Glad to see Boufal in. I suppose that Long is in for his pace, but someone really should tell Pellegrino that Long does not provide much of a goal scoring threat, which is the main purpose for strikers.
