escape2victory Posted 7 February 2022 Share Posted 7 February 2022 Back 4, don’t care who as long as it doesn’t include Soyuncu. Solid middle 3, Tielemans, Ndidi, KDH. Maddison free role off the right, Barnes or Lookman giving width from the left, Daka upfront. We played that system and beat Newcastle 4-0, and reverted to it 2nd half vs Liverpool and won. Never been seen since. Football is a simple game 👍 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Football is a simple game 👍 Yes Soyuncu has to be dropped - Vestergaard is carp and can't start either Do you go with Hamza, once he's sobered up and Armatey? Red Card and calamities beckon Do we need a back 5 but that will mean more duffers having to be selected - JJ in a back 5? with Ricky at right back, Thomas left? Or drop Wilf into the back 4 / 5 although I'm not keen of doing that Impossible selection and to be fair Rodgers because of the complete shiteness of how the centre halves we have available have been Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farrington fox Posted 7 February 2022 Share Posted 7 February 2022 I'd put Wilf in the defence and bring Hamza in. Didn't we set up that way in 1-0 at home 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fazzyfox Posted 7 February 2022 Share Posted 7 February 2022 re Tielemans, I don't think he's looked right since coming back from his last injury (December?), don't know if you'd call it rust, just his all round smoothness has gone, no longer a Rolls Royce more a Del-Boy van, and he's now just as prone to mis-controlling and playing misplaced passes as average players are. If I was at the training ground the day before the Liverpool match and had to weigh up who would give me most in a number 8 role out of Tielemans or K D-H, it would be K D-H right now and you have to reward his attitude and work rate.

Spudulike Posted 7 February 2022 Share Posted 7 February 2022 For me assuming the rockets have been surgically removed from those arses requiring it... Kasper Ricardo Ndidi Amartey Justin Hamza KDH Tielemans Maddison Barnes Daka Lookman first sub for Barnes after an hour. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sunbury Fox Posted 7 February 2022 Share Posted 7 February 2022 Picking a team for this is very hard. I doubt that Ric will be fit enough to start, in which case I can't see anything other than the same defence starting again ((God help us!), given the paucity of alternatives currently.

Dan LCFC Posted 7 February 2022 Share Posted 7 February 2022 More I think about it the more it reminds me of the 2016/17 season where a huge culture of complacency has kicked in, what started out with up and down league displays has eventually lead to routine humiliation. Was around January time when the real embarrassment started to kick in as well and we started getting battered by everybody. I fear what happened against Spurs was the start of this. The heads totally gone and no signs at all of recovery since. This could be a really bleak weak for us. I don't think we'll keep the aggregate losses this week below 5. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SouthStandUpperTier Posted 7 February 2022 Share Posted 7 February 2022 As well as we played in the home game we still had to rely on Liverpool missing some great chances. I don't think they'll be as generous this time. Really not looking forward to this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan LCFC Posted 7 February 2022 Share Posted 7 February 2022 2 hours ago, Ric Flair said: Hasn't the diamond worked very well vs this lot in recent years? We went to it 2nd half last season and beat them 3-1. We inexplicably threw away a 3-1 lead vs them in the cup before Xmas and then for 50-60 mins played it when we beat them 1-0 a few days later. I know they can expose us with their width but we seem to find plenty of gaps to exploit them with this system. It also gets the best out of KDH who they can't deal with and we are better with 2 strikers at the minute. It has and it's the obvious pick here. So obviously he'll pick a back five and we'll get battered. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FoxinNotts Posted 7 February 2022 Share Posted 7 February 2022 (edited) Could sit back and defend, then have an outlet of Maddison, Barnes and Daka Schmeichel Amartey Soyuncu Vestergaard Ricardo Ndidi Mendy Justin Maddison Barnes Daka 👀 Edit. We’re gonna get absolutely battered 😂 Edited 7 February 2022 by FoxinNotts 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MonkeyTennis? Posted 7 February 2022 Share Posted 7 February 2022 Time to mix it up a bit. New starting 11: Kaspar Justin Ndidi (we actually need someone who stops and wins balls in defence - Hamza could also play in this role, frankly) Vestergaard, if he's available (yes he's bloody slow, but is he any more of a liability than Cags or Big Dan atm?) Ricardo Hamza KDH Mendy (and if he's not back, Soumare) Daka Madders Nacho We are so likely to get battered here that I consider this a free hit. I wouldn't mind if we played Perez instead of Madders to see what happens either. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
