Pre-Match: Liverpool v Newcastle Mon 13th April 20:00 KO

Can't wait to see Ibe back in action.

Holly f**king sh*t,he is by far the worst defender we have.He in a game against Arsenal created two 1 on 1 chances for them,he was awful.He is slow,doesnt know what to do with the ball under pressure,he panics a lot,he is awful.Sakho invented football for him.

He was very bad against Arsenal agreed. He isn't a bad defender though. He isn't worse than our fullbacks but he is the worst of our CBs.

Balotelli is finished at this club how do you not realise this? We likely won't see him on the pitch for us again and rightly so. All Balotelli is doing here is taking the piss like he has at all his previous clubs. How was it ever going to be any different here? I don't even Balotelli for this he is who he is, I blame the muppets who thought his signing was a good idea to begin with. What f**king planet are they on? If Carroll and Balotelli aren't proof that panic buys never work I don't know what is!

I would still have him ahead of Borini and Lambert.

I do think he will be off in the summer though.

Need to win this game for sure, I am going for a narrow win for the Reds maybe 2  -1

With City in free fall there is a glimmer of hope still alive, looks like their players have given up knowing Pellegrini will not be at the club next season.

Just need a win to keep the pressure on Shitty.

Gotta win this one whatever.
If we don't play 2 up top for this, I'm afraid I'll start to question Brendan's ability and possibly his sanity.
Surely he won't go with two DMids against this sh*te at home ?

Can & Ibe to come back into the team.

Balo still has an illness and Lallana is still recovering from Hamstring, Gerrard & Squirttle are still suepended.

Is Balotelli back?

Try the mad b***ard upfront with Studge with Coutinho and Sterling in support.

Really need the win here to keep top 4 alive.

 


I agree... I think he is shocking but what have we got to lose now... ? tell him to go out and make himself a nuisance

I agree bu the problem is that Rodgers *DOESN'T* want to play two upfront. It would bring out the best in him and Sturridge (who btw is not looking good since his comeback apart from the two goals).

If Ibe is fit to start, I guess we could see 3-4-2-1 again with Markovic on the left.

Mignolet
Can-Toure-Lovren
Ibe-Hendo-Lucas-Markovic
Coutinho-Sterling
Sturridge

Subs- Jones, Johnson, Moreno, Allen, Lallana/Brannagan, Borini, Lambert

Well, the Scum have handed us a lifeline that i didn't think we'd get. As long as this is still possible we have a chance.

I'm expecting us to tonk them tonight, they are on a terrible run of form and we must go for the throat.

I'm thinking 5-0 here.

Good luck Redmen.

Get it!

Want to see Studge and Balo form a partnership for the remaining games to show us what we've potentially missed out on all these months. Ibe and Sterling wide where most effective, causing chaos and getting decent balls into the opposition box. Regardless, home win but hard fought. 2-1.

If we do get that front 3, I don't want to see Sterling and Ibe becoming rooted to the wide areas as wingers, I want to see all 3 interchanging, and with Coutinho as the #10 and Henderson attacking, I can see us destroying Newcastle!!!

Oh my F***ing hell. Daylight savings is some bullshit. Stayed awake thinking it was 4am kick off...but its at 5am

Please get a result 

Early news that Sturridge is out injured!
