Topic: Man City v Liverpool: Thu 26th - 17.30

[LFC_Mick]

Deluded oh dear, suppose you said that last year with Raheem V City? Robbo V Arsenal and Flanno for the past month?

How are young players ever supposed to succeed if there never given a chance?

[rob1408]

Zabaleta and Navas vs Cissokho. Brendan has got this one badly wrong

Jesus fucking Christ, how about actually seeing what happens before acting a tart ?

No Enrique, no Flanagan.  What exactly is Rodgers supposed to do ?

[Samie]

I'm sure you'll be on to boast about how right you were if we lose and disappear if we dont.

Isn't it always like that?. 

[SimplyRed91]

Very nervous, come on lads!!!!

[TepidT2O]

1-1.

Or 4-4

[perth-red]

Cissokho starting. Hope he can rise to the occassion because no doubt Navas is going to run him ragged.

Zabaleta and Navas vs Cissokho. Brendan has got this one badly wrong

Why don't you just wait until after the game, eh?
Our players are up for this. What we lack in skill in some departments, we make up with graft. We did so last season and I'm sure Brendan will have done his homework.

Calm down lad.

[007.lankyguy]

Zabaleta back in for them, strong team from City.

We can get at Lescott though. Suarez moving behind Toure, pulling Kompany out, then vertical or diagonal runs v Lescott from midfield or wide.

Cissokho v Navas could be an issue - Coutinho isn't great at tracking back that far or with his positioning defensively, especially when we get pushed into a low block so Henderson's going to be covering for him anyway. Hopefully we can deal with that side of the pitch.

Lucas will hopefully have as good a game against Silva as he did a couple of years ago.

I think we'll be aggressive in our pressing in midfield and try and force City to build up play through their CBs. Otherwise City could exploit us in the spaces either side of Lucas between the lines.

We're not expected to win this at all, let's suprise everyone!

[Samie]

Where's John M and the tea leafs?

[Zoomers]

Lol now I'm scared as fuck with Cissokho as our LB... The Arsenal game still haunts me.

[Kopenhagen]

What is he supposed to do exactly?

[ElMagico]

Jesus fucking Christ, how about actually seeing what happens before acting a tart ?

Has he had one good game for us?
Put Johnson left back Kelly right back.
Go 3 at the back with henderson and Johnson as wing backs.
Agger left back

Enough options

[TepidT2O]

Hardly any attacking talent in that city team, really surprised they've lined up so defensive.

[ThePeetmix]

Jesus wept. I swear some people on here wish us defeat just so they can be proven right.

[the_red_pill]

Cissokho starting. Hope he can rise to the occassion because no doubt Navas is going to run him ragged.

He's getting a small chance to show what he can do again. I'm sure he's done well in training.

I'm sure he'll be wanting to show what his about.

[rob1408]

Agger left back

I'll trust the manager over some anonymous tart on a message board.

[PhaseOfPlay]

Forget the score until full time


We're involved in a top of the table clash, that we're not expected to win, and the two top attacking sides in the league.

Enjoy the football, and see where we are at the end. It's much healthier.

[Caston]

Good team from both sides. Dont know what score to expect

Fax him those solutions mate. He needs all the help he can get and RAWK is full of experts who think they know better.

[Varun]

What is he supposed to do exactly?

I dont know, play agger at left back? Johnson on the left and toure on the right?

[steveeastend]

Cissokho is an experienced player, I have no idea why people are acting like he has never played a game of top level football before in his life..

Piss off with your sense and logic!!

[JackWard33]

Really unlucky zabaleta is back he makes a big difference to them and lescott is probably an upgrade on dimichelis
Oh well it was always going to be tough - no reason we still can't shock them

[Crackerjack Sam]

[Trendisnotdestiny]

Zabaleta back in for them, strong team from City.

We need to make Zabaleta work chasing Sterling & Coutinho all day.   Would love to see him subbed out at half.

[Mighty_Red]

Guess there wasn't much choice than to play Cissokho, we can't give a kid his first start away to City. Let's hope he has been watching the side and ups his game.

The results are going against us today apart from Everton, but that should'nt really worry us, we have to go and try and get a result, and a draw would still achieve that.

COMON U REDMEN!

[ElMagico]

I'll trust the manager over some anonymous tart on a message board.

Ok lets just wait and see what happens.
Guaranteed we concede at least 1 probably 2 due to Cissokhos pathetic defensive 'qualities'

[Cattive Maniere]

[TepidT2O]

Piss off with your sense and logic!!

Get back to work you skiving fucker

[zip]

Where's Kelly?

[Samie]

and if we don't you'll be nowhere to be found.

[stevenalonsa]

Good luck lads..Time to get three points...

[Bruce88]

Fucking nervous. Love it.

[ElMagico]

and if we don't you'll be nowhere to be found.

Will hold my hands up and say I was wrong

[Chakan]

Get back to work you skiving fucker

fine. Actually I get watch the first 15min then my lunch break end. There just might be "traffic" on the way back to the office.

[perth-red]

I'm sure he'll be wanting to show what his about.

Definitely. The amount of pressure he got after one terrible game is beyond belief. If he has a screamer tonight those same people that were quick to jump on his back will no doubt be the same people praising him for a great performance. Fans these days eh. The amount of knobheads that writ Henderson off is proof in point of how fans view the game these days.

[007.lankyguy]

Cissokho is an experienced player, I have no idea why people are acting like he has never played a game of top level football before in his life..

People have massively overdone how badly he's played since he came here. He's been average/mediocre, no worse imo.

[Crackerjack Sam]

Good luck lads..Time to get three points...

I really hope so too

[juan1001]

Where's John M and the tea leafs?

The tea leaves said 1-2.

[steveeastend]

I think you haven´t seen enough of Cissokho so far, no way.
