Match Thread Liverpool v Everton - Preview, Match Report and MotM Poll

[dannyboy]

I know what you mean but I always try to keep my Hope's high. It is going to be tough but I'm expecting much better from us than the match against them a few weeks ago as that was a game with a manager dead and buried and the players knew that where we now have a new manager and also Dunc helped put some prideback into the players so I'm hoping for a much stronger performance.

We did manage to score 2 goals against them considering how dire we were so I'm going for a much stronger and team performance.

If they do play a very weak team then we've just got to keep believing throughout. It'll be the type of game where we probably do get out played still but the difference is with a weak defence we could steal 2 goals in a crazy 10 minutes.

Unfortunately history does weigh on the shoulders and we struggle at the best of times to close games out away from home. We are a team that lacks characters to stand up in these situations. Crying out for some of our players to take responsibility for once on Sunday.

I've just seen the LFC injury list - there are 7 - and none of them were in the 18 against Sheffield Utd. The only one who'd be in their best 11 is Fabinho.

Whoever they name, remember that a reserve or B team is one that has few or no regular first 11 picked. That team that won the derby last month
had plenty of regulars.

Literally our only chance of maybe mocking a draw is us praying he plays the 18 year olds.

A conference team would have better confidence than us beating them.

What’s with the 1 minute past on all fa cup matches?

I don’t think he play the u21 again

We go full strength in this with Carlo at the helm and we'll win as I sounds like the RS are going to make changes. It's a great opportunity for us to finally get a win at Anfield or at least get a replay back at our place.

Carlo knows what it takes to best the RS and I'm sure he will try and go again with the,same plan he did with Napoli.

I seriously think we have a great opportunity here to go on a good cup run and possibly get some silverware at the end of the season.

Also stop the RS potentially doing the Treble. We stopped them from winning the league last season so let's put their dream of a treble to an end as well.

DCL is getting better and better with every game and I think he's going to cause a lot of problems for their defence.

"Dreams of a treble" would dictate a full-strength lineup. I think it will be anything but. Loads of the kids involved I reckon.

I'd rather we played a full strength Liverpool side, I'm now bricking it that we get rolled over by there kids

 

[blueconverse]

Seen alot of comments and they seem nervous. Free hit for us.

 

[Super Kevin sheedy]

Come on Blues, please, I don’t ask for much, it’s gone on too long now, it’s not even funny anymore

 

[alvinh]

I think he'll rotate heavily, there's a story in the Guardian which says as much and even if they weren't at the end of the xmas fixtures he has to try and keep that big squad happy with appearances etc.

It will be a very different Everton team that goes there than the December version.

It's a charity thing, mental health awareness I think.

Full expect them to play Origi, VVD,TA,Gomez, minamoto fella to play
Probably the green dress wearing Mane as well

 

[kenada_blue]

Wouldn't mind a draw. Replay. More games for them.

 

[PDAWG]

I'd love to know how the bookies have them at such long odds

How are they so sure they will rotate heavily

 

[jimmythenut]

If Klopp puts out a second string or a mix of youth and experience it would be disrespectful to us and the FA Cup. It doesn't matter if we haven't beaten them in years there out first team is better than their 2nd team.

Fingers crossed

Same it'll be the ultimate humiliation if it happens.

The issue for us is there reserve midfield is still better than Davies/Delph/Gyilf
