Sunderland away Dec 30th

[Molby]

Need to build on yesterday

 

 

Shame Origi got injured

Thought he and Hendo were the shining lights

Lovren needs to continue his progress too

[baja the hut]

I am not going to jinx it, but tough games for Man Utd, Spurs, if the results go our way I can see us closing in on 4th soon.

Well done, you just jinxed it

 

This is exactly the type of game that we have mde a habit of slipping in

Lol.

[Red Yoda]

-------------------Mignolet

 

Clyne-------Lovren-------Sakho------Moreno

 

-------------Lucas-------------Can

 

Lallana--------Henderson------------Coutinho

 

-------------------Benteke

[Earl Hafler]

I wouldn't play Lallana. Go for pace in wide areas and pull their s*** defence apart.

[lfc003]

Same team and shape as Leicester with Benteke in

[Sion]

They'll be playing Coates and Wes Brown at CB

 

This should be 10-0

[McBain]

So should Newcastle. I'm expecting a battle

[Hassony]

Coates has been their best defender since Sam took over

[Stevie H]

So should Newcastle. I'm expecting a battle

 

it's allardyce. it'll be yard dog as f*** this game.

[Red Yoda]

it's allardyce. it'll be yard dog as f*** this game.

Can't see it being anything else but that.

Watford down to 10 men now

Watford down to 10 men now

Sorry man. Just looked an opportunity that's all.

[doug_mac]

this is gonna be like our recent games v west brom and watford

 

its just gonna be long balls and long throws hoofed into our box from everywhere. i wouldnt start lallana or coutinho here as that clown fat sam will have his yard dogs

 

under instruction to kick f*** out of them 2. the game wont be 5 minutes old and that turd cattermole will have one of ours on the ground in a heap after one of his tackles

 

we need to be prepared to scrap against these

[Molby]

Our problem is the run of games

 

If Ibe is ok and comes back in form, and Sturridge can manage West Ham and Stoke, or part of, we have a good chance

 

Otherwise we might struggle if we can't rotate the squad properly

We should maybe cower out of the fixture altogether.

[lfc003]

All about starting fast for once and putting Sunderland under pressure

[The_Adder]

Ibe over Lallana, keep Hendo and Can in centre mid and have an extra attacker like v Leicester.

Ibe is just back into training after being ill for a number of days, doubtful that he will start.

[Rimbeux]

So are Sunderland going to sit in deep and launch it to a front two, or play for the draw and launch it to a lone front man?

[Tobes Rafa]

Is it really tomorrow and not today? That's f***ing s***e that.

I'd be tempted to bring Ibe in for Firmino or Lallana (probably the latter) but reckon Klopp will stick to the same XI that played the majority of the Leicester game.

[Leo No.8]

We lack a bit of pace in forward areas without Sturridge, Origi and Ings. I'd like to see Ibe playing to compensate for that a bit. Think our worst performances have largely been when we've had to many slow players in the team. Lucas, Milner, Firmino, Benteke, Lallana all good players but all lack pace for their respective positions. To play 'heavy metal football' one of the big priories over the next 12 months needs to be bringing in a lot more speed and stamina.
