Foxxed Posted 28 August 2018 Share Posted 28 August 2018 3 hours ago, Plastik Man said: With Morgan and Evans starting tonight v Fleetwood, and after Söyünçü played for the U23s last night, perhaps there's more chance of Söyünçü starting against Liverpool. He may take time to acclimatise but from the snippets I've seen he looks class. The pace of Mané and Salah up against Maguire, Morgan or Evans scares me! It'd be a baptism of fire for Soyuncu but since this is a free swing game then why not. Kasper Richardo Maguire Soyuncu Chilwell Ndidi Mendy Albrighton Maddison Gray Iheanacho Sub Ian, move Gray to the striker and bring on Ghezzal in the second. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tsintskaro Posted 29 August 2018 Share Posted 29 August 2018 They are trying to play so safe,Brighton actually had chance to save a point midfield will be ****ed,pretty sure Mendy and Ndidi would not be able to do anything,sadly That Arnold kid is not reliable tho,maybe they should focus that side Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SheppyFox Posted 29 August 2018 Share Posted 29 August 2018 This is a big ask. Our best chance is to meet fire with fire, press them as much as they will us & attack at every opportunity with a really high tempo. We will concede so we might aswell make a game of it, see who’s better off when the dust settles. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In these situations press and attack - give em a dose of their own. You never know, just might nick a cheeky 3-1. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn’t Amartey have a great game at anfield against that same Liverpool left side? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RowlattsFox Posted 29 August 2018 Share Posted 29 August 2018 I'd be surprised if Amartey doesn't start, especially if Morgan does. I think Puel sees Amartey has protection for Morgan whereas he would be exposed if Ricardo was caught high up the pitch. He could bring Evans in but I don't think he was convincing on the right hand side. Same team as the Southampton game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
North Leeds Fox Posted 29 August 2018 Share Posted 29 August 2018 Was at anfield last Saturday (missis is a Liverpool fan and we were up seeing her family) and they weren't that good. The front three looked like they had a world cup hangover and offered very little against a well organised brighton. The real strength for them was the CBs and CMs. Our strength will be to use gray on the left as TAA isn't that great defensively and maddison pop up in any space left by milner in front of their back line and we will create a few good chances. We just need to start well and keep a good shape when we have the ball as they are brilliant when they turn the ball over. 1-1 for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
les-tah Posted 29 August 2018 Share Posted 29 August 2018 (edited) i imagine we will see how Good Mendy and Ndidi really are on Saturday compared to Naby Keïta who everyone is raving about. Edited 29 August 2018 by les-tah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SuperMike Posted 29 August 2018 Share Posted 29 August 2018 Many on here advocate a 'three at the back' system. I actually think that the Liverpool game would be the ideal time to try out my 'back 10' system: Kaspar Ricardo Amartey Evans Soyuncu Benkovic Benalouarne Morgan Maguire Fuchs Chillwell Subs: Ward, Johnson, Knight, Simpson, Ndidi, iborra, Albrighton. I've put a lot of thought into the subs and all have defensive qualities - which I believe may be needed as my starting 11 may be somewhat weak, numbers-wise, at the back. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simoken Posted 29 August 2018 Share Posted 29 August 2018 If those LFC front 3 play like an unstoppable force, I can see us getting well and truly slapped. I may tissues and a strong whiskey afterwards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HighPeakFox Posted 29 August 2018 Share Posted 29 August 2018 The absence of Vardy apart, I am getting the feeling that we couldn't be up against Liverpool at a better time. That's not to say we won't get spanked, but I'd imagine that the squad is feeling good about life, and it's a chance to show what can be done against a very fine team.

Clever Fox Posted 29 August 2018 Share Posted 29 August 2018 We need to go with 5in midfield as we need to cut off the supply to Mane , Salah. it could go either way but right now if take a draw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

foxfanazer Posted 29 August 2018 Share Posted 29 August 2018 Weirdly looking forward to this one. Feels like a bit of a free hit as bad as that sounds. Not sure how we’re gonna cause them problems but I think we need to stay in the game as long as possible and see what happens 1-1 Madders and Mane with the goals Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the fox Posted 29 August 2018 Share Posted 29 August 2018 Vardy loves a goal against the big clubs so it will be a huge disadvantage for us. Hopefully they have an off-night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foxxed Posted 29 August 2018 Share Posted 29 August 2018 Interesting problem with right back. If we use Richardo Liverpool could find space behind him. If we use Amartey Liverpool could rip him a new one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ric Flair Posted 29 August 2018 Share Posted 29 August 2018 Ndidi's performance against them when we beat them 3-1 in 16/17 was as close to perfection as you'll ever get. If him and Mendy can be all over their supply line then we might get some joy. I really think Okazaki has a part to play on this game too, he would give Keita less chance to receive the ball but we could sacrifice having a focal point. Gray could drift from wide left in to the centre though when Okazaki and Maddison press. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
