Norwich City vs Liverpool Pre-Match Thread (28/4/12) 5:30pm

 


Exactly seven days before the cup final. Should we rest a few or let them all play. I say keep them on their toes and play them. Seven days is plenty rest.

My team:

                                          Reina

                     Johnson    Skrtel   Agger    Enrique

                    Downing  Spearing Henderson  Bellamy

                                    Carroll     Suarez

 SUBS: Jones, Carragher, Coates, Maxi, Shelvey, Gerrard, Kuyt

Win. Give us momentum going into the biggest game of our season! COME ON REDS!!! 

Nice first post, I like it when the efforts put in.

I'm stuck here between giving a few of the kids a run and telling the squad that anyone who shits out so they don't miss the final will definitely miss it. I'd like to see Suso and Sterling get a run in the Prem now we're near the end of a dismal Prem run.

Having said that I'd rather we went full on as the Kenny out brigade would be rubbing themselves all over the forum for days.

Decisions, decisions.

Well we have Fulham on the 1st at home, so rest the players for that one....

I say play them and maybe change it around against Fulham
       Reina
Johnson Skrtel  Agger Enrique
Maxi  Gerrard  Spearing Bellamy
      Suarez  Kuyt

Another game comes .. when will it ever end! 

                                   Reina

Johnson          Skrtel                Agger               Enrique

Downing         Spearing           Henderson        Bellamy

                        Carroll
                                                   Suarez 

                 Reina
 Glen    Skrtel     Agger     Enrique
                   Spearing
Suarez  Gerrard   Shelvey  Bellamy
                 Carroll

Raheem in ,  Bellamy off
Downing in ,  Carroll off,suarez at carrolls place
Henderson in , Shelvey off

think we should play pretty much our best eleven for this game, prepare them for the final next saturday, we can then rest some of our best (gerrard, suarez etc.) for the fulham match on tuesday which would also be good if kennys unsure about whose gonna start the final, id say all of the midfield apart from gerrard arent guaranteed a game in the final but anyway my 11 for this would be..

reina, jonno, skrtel, dagger, enrique, spearing, gerrard, downing, hendo, suarez, carroll       then depending on situation bring bellars an kuyt on, would be great to see sterling also especially with it being on tv it would look great if he came on an gave a top performance would probably get loads of features on sky sports news etc.

nothing less than a win will do, especially as we could end up 11th or 12th if we get beat

Another game comes .. when will it ever end! 

                                   Reina

Johnson          Skrtel                Agger               Enrique

Downing         Spearing           Henderson        Bellamy

                        Carroll
                                                   Suarez 

I like your thinking with regards team selection

To be honest, I don't think starting Bellamy & Downing would not be the best idea. I mean like we are at home, and we know how them games go If a change is needed, then we don't really have that injection of pace to come in, unless Sterling comes on. Bellamy & Maxi work wonders together, so would go with them first, and then allow Downing be an 'impact' sub ( )

Pepe; Johnno, Skrtel, Agger, Enrique; Downing, Stevie, Spearo, Bellers; Suarez, Carroll.

What impact you are referring to?

What impact you are referring to?

I know, but if you were searching for a goal and needed a player with some degree of crossing ability and pace, who would you rather bring on Downing, Maxi, Kuyt or Henderson?

Wish the 5th of May would just come already.Dont see kenny messing with the team to much here,Would say same as last weekend.And probably the same result!!

         Reina

Johnson          Skrtel                Agger               Enrique

Downing         Spearing           Henderson        Bellamy

                        Carroll
                                                   Suarez 

Norwich have gone off the boil.

As a long term Kenny replacement I'm a fan of Lambert.

How do you judge anything at the moment?   

We ain't got no strikers.



Starting line up?

Send the first team to Barbados and call em back before the Final.

Strongest 11 for me,we need 3pts to boost our confidence and get above blueshite, finishing below them would be the final insult for what has been a sh*t league campaing, rest a few against Fulham, we need players smiling going into cup final week,Kenny's camerardary will do the rest, the Chavs wont fancy meeting us one bit, considering history,

                    IKWT        YNWA

               

Should be an easy win this! 3-0.

.... is what I'd say in a more "normal" LFC season.

F**k. I'll take a scrappy 1-0. Anything. Just a win, please! For the love of all that is good, please, a wiiiiiiiin!

--------------------Reina--------------------

---Johnson---Skrtel---Agger---Enrique---

-Downing---Gerrard---Hendo--Bellamy---

--------------Suarez-----Carroll-----------

Subs; Doni, Kelly, Coates, Spearing, Shelvey, Maxi, Kuyt.

Play a full strength side and go for the 3 points.

I'd then rest a few for the Fulham game, ahead of the F.A Cup final.

Away win. 1-3

Pilkington - Maxi, Kuyt, Suarez

Does anyone know the status of Gerrard yet?

Well played!

ANY KIND OF WIN!!!

Even if the ball has to be kicked by Reina from his box and hits the referee's arse and goes into goal.

Luis  :          Just seen the Downing : Impact Sub !




Nothing against you mate.




Downing and Impact in same sentence?
