Southampton vs LFC League Cup QF Wed 2nd Dec ko 1945

[Tommy Cockles]

I will start it then as no-one else seems bovvered.

 

Phil back?

Lucas back?

A rest for Can & Benteke?

Danny & Hendo to start?

 

Going to be a tough game this, will need to put in a performance to win here.

 

Be nice to be in a Semi. Even a 2 legged one.

 

I'm going. Down there for about 5pm. Few cans on the train, over to The Osborne for a bit of scran and a few cleansing ales.

 

All is well.

I'd be surprised if Coutinho starts this.

[Jarg Armani]

[David Hodgson]

I can see us playing a striker less formation. For an hour.

[Conrad]

can't see coutinho starting.

[RafaShanks]

can't see coutinho starting.

 

I think he will start.

[Foxtrot]

Being away and the oppo likely to come at us Benteke would get opportunities to hold the ball up and distribute to the second wave of attack. Doesn't have space to work with at Anfield, not at least for the first hour.

[Sion]

Is Origi injured?

Play the reserves says I. Loads of our lads need a rest and this comp is a load of old goat.

[smithdown]

Clashes with Public Enemy!!!

 

Gonna have me missus impatient to get in the venue and raise a fist and our kid refusing to budge from the alehouse, and there's me in the middle who'll be agreeing with both of them.

 

Load of old goat my ar5e.

[Cunny]

can't see Coutinho or Firmino starting this.

Sturridge start over Benteke?

Teixeira wasn't involved in last night's U21 game - so he might be on bench at least.

[Case]

Yep, save the two nippy Brazilians for Sunday.

 

Start Lucas and Hendo with Can. Milner in the hole, Ibe and Sturridge

[lfc003]

Is Origi injured?

It’s the quarter final of a winnable cup competition, a chance to win our first trophy in four years and most importantly a chance to keep our momentum and fine form going. You don’t get tired of winning games.

I'd like us to win it, a trophy for klopp within months of joining would be great

[Conrad]

absolutely - play a strong side, rest 1 or 2. I'd keep coutinho and lallana back for sunday

[Swipe]

Yeah, I really fancy seeing us lifting something shiny again.

[RP]

At this stage, we have to play a strong side.

 

Rodgers was beaten with the 'needs to win something' stick ... would be great for Jurgen to bin that one straight away.

[Dan]

Full backs need a rest. Otherwise go strong.

[McBain]

Full backs need a rest. Otherwise go strong.

They do. But nobody viable to come in

[Dan]

They do. But nobody viable to come in

 

Randall?

[McBain]

 

Randall?

Big gamble in an away cup 1/4

Id trust them. We've fielded so much s***e in the form of clueless big money international signings over the years, that I tend to have more faith in the determination and enthusiasm of the young players.

Lot of games coming up too.
