Liverpool v Everton. 27th Sep at 12.45.

[Tubey]

The flack Martinez is going to get for this if it goes as expected now will be through the roof.

 

[Jxg]

Or he's wank.

Or both

 

[Matthew mcdonnell]

Distin not even on the bench lads... Martinez being ruthless.

Bet he would have started had he been fit

 

[toffeejack]

can see it now, we dominate the game but barely create a chance in anger, whereas they score their only shot on target through balotelli, set up by markovic and we lose 1-0.

 

[evertony]

He won't. He just does not stand a single chance against Sterling's pace

Hibbo is sound defensively, albeit without pace. Very rarely loses a tackle, and clearly knows what Derbys are all about. Hibbo's success or otherwise in dealing with sterling will depend massively on what cover he's given from right side of the midfield three.

Besic may well have maimed sterling before he gets in Hibbo's area anyhow.

 

[Jags..class]

Would rather have Betic in there rather then attacking player, we need to shore up the defence

 

[CahillsCornerFlag]

It's a question of who scores the most goals today, going to be a fair few in this, I just hope we can net a few at their place for once.

 

[TrixyStevens]

We are going to be wide open on the right, hope Besic and Mac have plenty in the tank

 

[roydo]

Well it looks a less gung ho set up than some feared.

 

[Baines' left foot]

Come back to me in 2 hours when your whinging when we are in the bottom 3 with -5 GD after hibbo is ripped to shreds and Besic gives Atkinson every excuse to send him off

Waaaa waaaa waaaaa.

Wanting Martinez sacked is utterly insane you knee jerking, Soccer Am watching, Daily Star reading degenerate.

 

[Christiffa25]

Hibberts first PL start for six hundred odd days...

 

[Azza]

Just weird, where are Atsu and Oviedo? I know Atsu has looked meh but still he could do something off the bench.

 

[Matthew mcdonnell]

Can't wait for besic though

 

[JimEFC]

Now I've knee-jerked about Hibbert and got over it, I've looked again at the team - at least we have the Jags/Stones pairing. Plus Hibbert does know his way around a derby game...albeit a derby game from 10 years ago.

Midfield, wings and up front looks good.

 

[toffeejack]

very weak bench btw, no atsu or kone.
