      LFC 2-1 Ludogorets Razgrad: In game and Post Match Discussion
      Sep 16, 2014 06:37:01 pm


      Tonight's team. Thoroughly unimpressed. If Lambert can't get a start here, when can he?

      brilliant!!! two strikers on the bench.. Lucas strong cover in midfield.. Suso the young meistro.. strong senior defensive cover..!!

      Mario Balotelli at Anfield in the Champions League!

      Steven Gerrard as Captain once more!

      Coutinho, Lallana, Henderson and Sterling all playing together!

      Attacking full backs!

      Sakho and Lovren!!

      strong bench... strong XI...!!

      Champions League is one hour away!!!!!

      I think we need two strikers up there. But I can understand Rodgers being reluctant to put Lambert with Balotelli. And Borini is far too average to merit a place in the first 11

      Mate, stop being so negative, apart from Sturridge, this is the most likeliest of X1's Brendan would have selected, I think it's a very attack minded team and one I believe Ludogorets will struggle to cope with,

      c'mon fella,  it's CL night, we've waited 5 years for this yet your unimpressed,  head, pull and arse comes to mind here, me thinks !

      I wouldn't be so certain we aren't playing with two up top lads. Could just as easily be a diamond with Balo and Sterling up front. We won't know until the game starts.

      Could look this:

      Manquillo      Lovren     Sakho    Moreno

                          Gerrard

            Henderson           Lallana

                          Coutinho


                 Balotelli        Sterling


      The line up works for me. If you are screaming for Balotelli AND Lambert to start in the same game I actually think your a bit bonkers. They are very similar players and I don't think we will see them play together from the beginning all that often because it puts us a man down in midfield and neither player can match Sturridge/Suarez in terms of the way we pressed the ball in that formation last year.

      Probably strongest first XI he can put out just now.
      The only 50/50 might be Lallana/Lambert, but it's a toss up. Good chance for Adam to get more game time, maybe make a name for himself by nicking a CL goal.
      Whoooooaaaaaaaaaa, nearly there :) Long wait.  Really looking forward to the occasion...

      Can't wait, I just hope they can do as well as the young uns.
      Really want Mario to score tonight, shut some of the media up, who seem desperate for him to fail!
      Come on you Redmen, let's see what you're made of!

      Really looking forward to seeing how we set about Ludogorets,  I'm hoping we attack from the off but with an air of caution,
      You could say the performance is not important only the 3 points,  but I prefer if we perform admirably with a relatively easy time of it, a comfortable ride if you want, 
      I think we will win this without too much to worry about,

      3-0 Redmen at least.!

      NB ; The only thing I'm not looking forward to is the droning kunt Townsend commentating,  w**ker.!

      What a great, optimistic, opening match thread to signal our return to where we belong.

      Is Clint sick or something? Surely we could have found a replacement that could have created this topic without already having a moan.

      Waited so long for this.

      Should be fairly simple here. Looking for some of the new lads to make an impact and gain confidence.

      Ha ha.  I had to split the pre-match thread. The pre-match thread opener was unbeatable!

      Totally agree Debs, seen some fantastic European nights at Anfield over the years.
      Always stood on the Kop for European matches, nothing quite like it. European nights are special, it's been too long!

      Red card in last European outing. He will miss tonight and Basel.
