Nobody here cares about snow or height of it, but the very first groan will be about ice and the danger it brings on both roads and streets. We also have black ice, which is the special ops of ice that is trying to claim at least ankles and car insurance. Our temperatures don’t hold for long enough for the lovely snow to fall and set, which is why we have all the lovely sleet, ice and panic stations.

I have heard all the jokes from those I know in the aforementioned countries and it is quite surreal how different the winters are that they won’t really get it unless they come and experience it for themselves.

Leicester? You poor guy. What sin did you have to serve repentance for there?

Was studying abroad as an eramsus student there. Hearing this reaction a lot, I actually really liked Leicester as a student city :lol:

Only rarely ventured outside of city center to be honest, maybe that's why

If the game is on today...

Onana
Mazraoui Maguire De Ligt
Amad Ugarte Mainoo Dalot
Rashford Bruno Garnacho

Bruno false 9 with runners (hopefully with a point to prove) would be better than Hojlund losing every ball to VVD. Similar setup to how we played Everton (with Zirkzee false 9).

golden_blunder · Sunday at 11:21

Why are we seeing Rashford in people’s lineups? Several throughout this thread. Coincidentally, the last few posters all had Ronaldo in their name

So it’s going ahead or decision still to be made?

Would rather we just got this fixture out of the way

We haven’t scored at Anfield in 5 years. Surely that can’t be true?

You basically stayed within the perimeter. You could have been the star of your own Resident Evil game if you’d ventured out! :lol:

It's true. If we score today it should be treated as a win regardless.

anybody starting a sweepstakes as to which of our players will be wearing gloves ?

Extra brownie points to any of our players who wear short sleeves

Without Lingard, it's even worse. We should really bring that promising youngster back.

I was going to put a bet on 6 - 1 but after seeing this there is no way I’m betting on us to score.

I’m not saying it will happen, just that I hope we change things up a bit.

We haven’t scored a single goal yet with Mazraoui and Dalot as our wing backs. It’s a trend that stretches his entire tenure so far, it wasn’t just the Newcastle game.

Yes, because our front 3 is a bit useless at scoring goals, none of our center forwards know how to create chances for themselves and we've missed a stupid amount of chances (particularly the Bournemouth game).

Judas · Sunday at 11:30

12 seems unfairly late to call it off, I think it’ll go ahead now.

BeforeKeanetherewasRobson · Sunday at 11:30

To avoid fixture congestion, fairest thing is to call it a draw and move on

Robbie Boy · Sunday at 11:30

I think we're going to get badly beaten.

One goal in the last 9 games at Anfield

Shabby as she goes · Sunday at 11:31

I hope he’s learned from last week and opts for a strengthened midfield again

————————Onana————————
——Yoro——De Ligt——Martinez——
Mazraoui—Mainoo—Ugarte—Dalot
——Diallo——Bruno——Garnacho—

Well we’ve scored several goals with other combinations. I think Carragher nailed it the other day when he said they’re just too defensive.

Our problem is we seem to rely on the wing backs for creativity, since we struggle to play through the thirds via the middle.

Can't see him not starting Maguire going by comments this week. Unless he's injured.

I posted similar (minus the ten scoreline) in a previous post. But, is there an argument for Licha in midfield?

I've always maintained that defensive midfield is the role best suited to Martinez's qualities as a passer and controller but in this current formation of a 2-man midfield, I wouldn't play him in midfield because the role requires a lot of the physical and athletic qualities that make him also ill-suited to be a 3rd CB in the formation. To me his perfect role would be as the sitting DM in a 3-man midfield.

Exactly. We can't score anywhere.

It’s 6 years - December 2018.

I knew it was bad but how awful is this. Absolutely ridiculously bad.I bet we’ve barely mustered shots on target in those 9 games too. Feels like under a succession of managers we’ve been beaten before we’ve turned up or absolutely delighted to get out of there with a 0-0 on a few occasions.

I’m not expecting it to be today but at some point we’re going to need to find a mentality shift in these big games.

I think he'll use Amad at RWB.

--------------------------------Onana
--------------Mazraoui-------Maguire------Martinez
Amad------------------------------------------------------Dalot
-------------------Ugarte--------------Mainoo
-------------------Bruno----------------?
------------------------------Hojlund

I don’t think so, because we don’t really have anyone to play at your question mark spot. Our two rotational options have both fallen out with the manager/aren’t even in the team

So long as we have 11 players who empty the tank, take their chances, make the tackles count and don't give away the ball, we have this.
