      Pre Match: Hull v Liverpool : Sat 4th Feb : 3.00pm

      The game we should be more worried about than the Chelsea game the other day.

      How many times have we tanked in the following game after putting in a decent performance against one of the Top 6!

      Team should pick itself although a few questions Coutinho looks out of form could we see him from the bench.

      And the midfield conundrum it's clear from the Tiggers performance against the Mancs they will park the bus and try and hit us on the break.
      Lallana has got to come back into midfield and Can drop to the bench.

      Hopefully Bobby has got the court case out of his head and starts hitting the back of the net.

      We should have the capability to get in behind the bus now Mane is back though.  Going for a tight 0-1 to Liverpool if he starts.

      They got a hard earned point at old toilet. Good new manager and renewed belief they can fight and stay up. This is going to be tough...

      1-2 redmen!

      Totally agree, how many false dawns have we had after a good result.  YNWA

      Hull are a tough team at their place. Their new manager has them fighting. This will be no easy game, we have to take our chances and not over commit like we have been doing.

      I will really lose my sh*t if we end up getting caught 3 or 4 v 2 at the back from a counter AGAIN.

      Look at it this way, if we are going to be top 4 (and higher hopefully), then we are  going to start winning these games. So for that reason alone, I think we win this one. 2-0 to the redmen.

      Right on, the next few games will shape our season.

      Come on redmans, we have to start somewhere.

      I'm going to be totally non committal on this game and say it could well be a very hard fought draw, a heartbreakingly typical loss after Tuesdays game, or an easy 4 or 5-0 win.

      I'm at work again so won't be following or watching, I'll just be hoping that when I check the result at 5pm, it'll be the latter  ;D

      They have restricted Man Utd recently but is that down to Manure being sh*t or are they a tricky team, not really sure. Really hope we can get a win, even better if its a solid win.

      We could do with giving some team a proper beating - as Man City did with West Ham. Could Hull be the victim? Go on then..

      Let's get those goals flowing. Firmino, Coutinho, Lallana, Mane all ready.. even Sturridge with a possible 90th minute sub appearance. No excuses.

      We'll get plenty of width on the right if Mane starts, but we'll get f**k all on the left again ! Millie will get forward to a degree, but cut inside as he knows he doesn't have the pace to burn the fullback. Something needs to change there. Not sure if we can achieve anything by shuffling the pack, or do we have to change personel ?
      We certainly have to start at a ferocious pace and get an early goal. Thats the only time they will come out and play.When they have to, to salvage something from the game. Then we can play through them.  The longer it goes without us scoring, is when we seem to get frustrated and everything goes sideways and backwards. Thats when we get caught out, when everyone pushes up too far trying to force the game. We have to get an early goal, and stay concentrated at the back.Just because we have 70% of the ball, doesn't mean we all have to be in their half. Get organised and be patient at the back, don't travel upfield unless someone is clearly covering you. The change of player will change the perception and dimension of the attack, but the cover is a must.
      Going for an early strike and a cool 1 - 3. Come on you red men. Lessons learned and all that.

      Mind you, after the Swansea match, I won't be including us in my accumulator this week...        :roll:
