Lot of pundits and the talk on Social media seems to favour us, makes me nervous

True, we never win when favoured. Praying we don’t see lindelof, Maguire, mctom and Fred starting.

It will be idiocy on our behalf. OGS needs to play our game today, Liverpool won’t be able to cope without the defence they miss. It’s about time to play them from our position of strength

Agreed but we won’t.

Guardian are predicting we will go back 5.

God forbid.

Never works.

Just play our regular game, drop Martial for a more hardworking Cavani and drop Matić for more intense Fred.

Hernandez - BFA · Jan 17, 2021

Battle of the defences today. I feel if AWB and Shaw are defensively sound today - I think we'll avoid defeat. All about some magic up top then.

The spurs game happened, we will play Lidelof, Maguire and mcfred. Have a feeling Dan James will start on the right.

Anyone else bricking it yet? I won't lie, it's nice to have this feeling again in some weird twisted way.

Deery · Jan 17, 2021

I’m starting to worry about Liverpool’s fullbacks Shaw and Wan Bissaka could easily get overloaded today..

Why? If pundits favour us, it means we are better. Should induce confidence

Your logic is correct, just makes me nervous, pre match nerves well and truly kicking in!

Needham · Jan 17, 2021

Head says we'll get rolled 4 nil. Heart says we'll snatch a draw. The drugs then chimed in and said we already won.

jderbyshire · Jan 17, 2021

Imagine Donny coming on and scoring a volley from outside the box to win in it in the 90th min.

JSArsenal · Jan 17, 2021

What do you lot think of your team's mentality?

Lose today and will the wheels come off ?

I am quite relaxed. We are clearly a better team with better form, so just need to capitalise on our advantages

Ole's first real test...

Jokes aside, I think it'll be ok. We got destroyed by Spurs and have come back strongly. We've also been resilient after the loss to City. It will definitely be a big blow to the players, and we may have a small wobble, but I expect us to come back into form.

Probably not. 4 semi-final losses in a year and spectacularly shitting the bed in the CL but we're still chugging along, so we seem to bounce back well.

Nah, We came back stronger after getting smashed by Spurs and losing to Arsenal. A loss is expected today by most given Liverpool's home record, a draw/victory would be a bonus.

Don’t think the wheels will come off but it’ll be a big blow, we lose and it’s a fight for top 4 win and it could push us on to win the league..

Its weird, we arent Liverpool with 2 years of success. Bouncing back after being shit is well in our wheelhouse!

Who would take a 0-0 bore draw right now?

I would, as long as we win on Wednesday.

I definitely would. There's a reason the bookies have them as favourites, no matter what the pundits and experts say. Their home form is out of this world.

I fear Ole starts Lindelof & James..

James- no chance
Lindelof- if fully fit there is a big chance he’ll start, but we haven’t really heard anything about his recovery, except he was back fully in training a week ago.

Id bite your hand off if you offered that now...

DavelinaJolie · Jan 17, 2021

Sadly I think it'll be 2-1 'pool.

Never. Always go for a win. This is manchester united.

Every single media outlet I've seen is touting Liverpool to win and giving 10 reasons why they'll batter us.

Please.

Away to our fiercest rivals, you'd sell your nan for a 0-0 right now.

Alemar · Jan 17, 2021

Not me. Only a win would work for me, and preferably by 2+ goals

Whenever we've lost we string together a 10 game non-losing streak so it seems to give us a kick up the arse if anything.

I'd go

DDG
AWB Bailly Maguire Shaw
McT Fred Pogba
Bruno
Rashford Martial

what if pogba and bruno exchange positions ?

dal · Jan 17, 2021

There’s so much title talk before this game, first Pogba and now Bruno, Liverpool will come out like the Harlem globe trotters.

isn’t martial injured?

If we defeat the dippers at home they will psychologically fall apart. This isn't just about 3 points. Even if we lose we still have the same points, I'd say go for the kill.

lsd · Jan 17, 2021

This is a game where there needs to be a goal very early on as i fear both teams will set up exactly the same and show each other too much respect.

Berbasbullet · Jan 17, 2021

VidaRed said:

Also Fred can’t be the deepest one, he’s a disaster there and we miss his best qualities there.

VidaRed · Jan 17, 2021

My take.
---------------DDG-----------------
AWB Bailly Maguire Shaw
McT Pogba Fred Rashford
--------------Bruno------------------
--------------Cavani-----------------

SER19 · Jan 17, 2021

If spurs win Liverpool risk dropping to 5th later. It probably tells you to not worry too much about position given how tight it all is, ie they can go top or 5th, but with tough fixtures coming up it will be a different type of pressure for them

Any day of the week.

Some very premature predictions of us winning which are completely ignorant of:

a) their home record
b) our record in big games this season
c) our record in any game where we think we’re on track to win something in recent years
d) the incessant and completely falsified chat in the media about them not getting penalties and us getting loads of wrong decisions in our favour-the refs are going to have to have eyes in the back of their heads

Not if we lose today, but when we lose Bruno to injury all bets are off.

Is Cavani a doubt?

I mean, in so far that he's no spring chicken and had missed a fair few games before playing 90 mins (?) v Burnley. But not officially.
