Best chance in years

For those on the Derby Bingo

Has anyone creative got the skills to do Derby Bingo, that would be a load of fun.

I'd also include stuff like
Commentator mentions that Pickford tackle
Sean Dyche's master class on the Liverpool tactics
Dyche has got Everton fighting, compact defensive...blah blah blah

It wasn't a tackle. It was a coming together and Van Dyke ran into him. It could easily have been Pickford who got injured.

How many PL games have they lost at Anfield with crowds watching? In the last five years?

I can think of one, to Leeds, which was won with a last minute goal in a game Leeds got battered in.

So all this ‘there’s no better chance to beat them’ etc. is great and all but I really don’t know why there’s an expectation. We’re still not very good and one result doesn’t change that. We’ll probably be starting with Maupay and no senior strikers on the bench meanwhile they’ll have Nunez Salah Gakpo with Jota on the bench.

I hope for a win of course but all this ‘our derby record at Anfield is rubbish it’s time we won’ is not really helpful seeing as no one has been winning at Anfield. Take a look at Arsenal Spurs and City’s Anfield records when fans are in.

If anyone is feeling a lucky omen for tonight, look at this, Big Joe’s first 4 games were a Derby, a London team, Leeds and Villa, Dyche has the exact same run for his first 4 just substituting Arsenal for Chelsea as the London team

Telly going on about the RS injury crisis, we must have a complete fit squad? Oh, and that fact they have not had a penalty for ages keeps getting mentioned as if they are trying to force one. And some RS still say the media is against them ha ha.

Let's do these COYB

It's only the one game but they have drawn a few home games. That's how I see it tonight tbh, I can see us scoring a goal and with us on a high then they will get the usual 93rd min free kick and will score from it and the game will finish a draw.

We have to take any chance we get. Squandered so many against Arsenal i thought we'd blown it. I fear the same tonight....many chances missed and we pay this time. Is Lewin out for certain?

Spirited 3-0 defeat.

Usually i feel sick on Derby day.

Now Everton have Everton'd me to the max im just not arsed.

I think the 3 pts against Arsenal sort of helped as well, going into that knowing its 2 likely losses and suddenly have 3 pts extra than expected.

Snatch anyones hand off for a point as it stands but i expect the usual roll over.

I still view this as a bit of a free hit - it's still Anfield and they're still a top team on their day. I just want to see some hard work & commitment, even if the quality isn't quite there..

Exactly for us tonight is a freebie.
For them they're claiming crisis, pressure will be on as they will be in a crisis if we beat them.
Great opportunity

3 red cards in this match, 2 to them for horrible challenges and one to us for doing a foul throw. Just kidding, they'll never get a red at home to us.

The first 2 will be successfully contested...'his leg was only broken a little bit'
The foul throw Increased from 1 game to 3 - deliberate foul play

 

[degsy]

A repeat of last week's performance (actual line-up and tactics may vary) and the result will take care of its self

 

[when i score we riot]

Not positive, but I guess I am less negative than usual for the RS away. Worried about Maupay starting, but as long as we can harass and run and fight for every ball we'll be doing the right thing. Bring it on!

Christ almighty we had two of them in the same team. I'd do anything to have just one.
