Y.N.W.A Thread III: Enter 'The Normal One'

[saint.nick]

So the game against Sunderland, no Mane, I'm assuming no Henderson, and probably no Couthino either. If this is correct, do we bring in Sturridge to striker, Origi to RW and drop Lallana back to central mid with Firmino on the left?

Mane will play, City was his last home match before AFCON.

 

[Haffa]

If they can manage that, then the 6-point gap will profoundly narrow and potentially flip our way because Chelsea will drop points here and there eventually.

Doesn't that kind of potentially work both ways?

That's why I said 'potentially'

Ah. Didn't realise that.

What a f**king calamity. Hit the lead twice, quickly concede a dumb penalty twice.

And god, Emre Can gives me the f**king shits. The guy is a legend in his own eyes.

Hopefully people can stop talking up Lolpool as a title chance now and be realistic

Yeah. Mane's penalty was a bit more dumb luck, but Klavan didn't need to concede his in my opinion. Poor concentration cost us today.

Of course Klavan didn't need to concede his, he had frikken cover behind him. The whole penalty was just fkn silly.

The free kick just before that led to the handball was bullshit though.

Football Gods Square up for the offside goal maybe?
Gee it was a soft free kick though.

 

[cb4]

What offside goal?

What offside goal? Mane's goal? Ball came off Sunderland.

 

[Foz]

Didn't realise it hit the Sunderland defender till I saw it on LFC tv.
Stroke of luck for the good guys.

Joel Matip is yet to resume full training at Liverpool, though is expecyted to do so in the next few days. AS such I'd be surprised if he plays on Monday monring (our time) for the FA Cup. Hope he will be fit for the Man Utd game.

There's still games we have trouble breaking sides down despite a mountain of possession.
Ok it was mainly a second string side we put out but for all the possession we had there weren't many opportunities this morning.
Even when the subs came on only Sturridge looked like he might create something.Plymouth were great in defence but didn't look to be a lot of tactical nous putting real pressure on them.
Didn't really need a replay but as strange as this comment is-it may be better playing Plymouth at home as they won't park the bus.
Ok they weren't as defensive in the second half as the first but they came to play one way and they succeeded in getting what they wanted.

Luckyu only down 1-0 after the first leg of the EFL Cup Semi. We never looked like scoring against Southampton. Karius certainly saved quite a bit of the side's bacon today.

We wanted Karius to come out with a screamer of a game...just now when we lose. Lol.

Wish these doomsday fans would shut up though. It's impossible for a team to sustain good form throughout the whole season. Yes, Liverpool will have form dips, like they are right now. But I'd rather save our defeats for EFL semi-final first legs than EPL fixtures.

Dreading this weekend, I think the dirty mancs are going to give it to us.

On form there can only be one result.

Good thing form means shit in these fixtures

True.. Gut feeling though is we will need to pack extra lube
