The Merseyside Derby Build Up Thread

[royalblue66]

so who thinks lennon is going to start? feel like RM will start McGeady but bring lennon on after about 60 mins

And tear the a new one,like i

 

[MD 1989]

Joel
Coleman
Stones
jags
Baines
Barry
Besic
McCarthy
Mirallas
Naismith
Lukaku

4-3-3 nais as a false 9 interchangeable with lukaku on the rw, the front free are capable of playing in different postions through out the game wich should cause there back 3 a lot of trouble with Barkley lennon to come of the bench and some more pace.

I wish Barkley was in some kind of form so we could have him start. I want the Barkley of last season back more than anything. If we could just soak up their pressure that we know they'll bring and get the ball to him he would tear them a new one with them runs he could make.

Antony Taylor

You are joking? May as well not play and just save on the inevitable suspension and season ending injury.

So because you think we won't win we will? Reverse psychology I see. I just have no faith mate been hurt to many times in a derby and expect a hiding.

Sorry

I am not confident at all but this is the first time I genuinely felt that for many a year.
So hoping it works!

Apart from the fact we've won the two games he's reffed this season, why don't you like him?

Unfortunately games against them never pan out that way. They always let us make the play then look to pressure us in midfield and play on the counter. Hopefully Roberto has learnt and should play them with our European style, if we try and tiki taka them we'll get done 4-0 by 4 long balls again. Im hoping we're just so bad now that we'll be forced to just defend and go long to Mirallas and Lukaku as i honestly think thats our best chance of winning the game.

Because he's a kopite who trys to screw us over in most of the games i've seen him ref us in regardless of result. Gerrard will run the game for him. The only refs i would trust with the derby are Webb (retired) and Dowd (coincidentally the only two the RS hate above all). They are happy with any of this pathetic crew: Clattenburg, Atkinson, John Moss, Anthony Taylor, Lee Mason and Lee Probert. All massive kopite sympathisers.

We're gonna smash them harder than when pancake smashes Alex Curran
