      Pre-Match: Liverpool V Watford (17/03/18 - 17:30)
      Mar 14, 2018 12:53:45 pm



      FA Cup weekend also so this allows us to push back up the table with a win and put pressure back on Spurs and United above us aswel as Chelsea below us.

      Watford are pretty much safe and were very easily beaten away at both Spurs & Arsenal recently but cannot be taken for granted obviously.

      Players should be fuming from Saturday. Lets take our anger out on these let.

      3-0 Reds!  :kop5cf8koxp6: :kop5cf8koxp6: :kop5cf8koxp6:

      This match can't get here soon enough.

      My only question with the above team is whether Matip (or possibly Klavan) might be back in at center back after Lovren's issues last week (and the way Klopp reacted to what he did).

      Can't see us not getting 3 points with this one and to be honest, anything less than 3 points is abject failure at this point.

      We have to be winning this, Watford are not a bad team, but they are fairly safe now so as long as we are tight at the back, as we have been lately, bar the Manure game, then we should win this 2 or 3 nil

      Corrected for you.

      We should be playing Matip, Lord Klavan and Gomez only with VVD. Simples.

      Expect nothing more than a battering for this one.
      The whole team will be like caged animals after last Saturday, eager to get out there and smash the next team in line.

      I still have flashbacks from that jammy 3-3 draw on the opening day :f_steam:

      Keep that overweight lard Deeney on his ass and turn em over with a 4-0 win.

      Should be a comfortable win this one esp at home where we have been excellent this season.

      Bring in Matip for his passing from the back and against a team of giants Gomez will be useful.

      Hendo, Lallana and Ox in midfield.

      Gomez apparently injured.

      I doubt he will sit Emre for this.

      Still feeling last weeks loss to the useless fuckers at the Toilet. Barely watched any footy this week.
      Just want to get another game under our belts.
      Went for a big win in the prediction league, Watford will hopefully reap the whirlwind.
      We're better than last weeks performance/result, back in the saddle and push on.
      Think Hendo needs to come back.

      Correct me if I am wrong, but Can has a good record, or rather a better record in breaking down defensive teams than, Milner, Hendo and Wijnaldum? And on that note, I'd have Can starting, but I'd also want to see Lallana or Ox play too, so that leaves, Milner, Wijnaldum or Hendo for that 3rd midfield spot!

      Do not think Watford should be taken too lightly, they are a handy side. Although having said that, I have gone for 3  1 for the Reds, in the Prediction league.

      Agree that we shouldn't count our chickens. Klopp was doing well prior to the United match of instilling the right mentality in our players when we went against the "lesser" teams in the Premier League. Hopefully we can pick up where we left off with that.

      In truth,  not having the right attitude is really the only thing that can stop us for most of remaining league matches. Only Chelsea away would offer a real danger to us not getting three points in terms of playing quality. So let's just turn in a professional performance and let our quality shine through.

      How's the weather over there today? Windy?

      219 minutes before kickoff so looking for something to do in the meantime. I have a book to finish and maybe I can get a few miles of walking in, but it's nippy outside. I suppose I could watch FA Cup matches....(but I probably won't because they are boring).

      Just to add that I'm seeing some support online for starting  Gomez over TAA today. Even if Joe is healthy enough, I think making this change would send the wrong message to a very promising young player who has been mostly good for us this season. Maybe he wasn't stellar last weekend, but I think the right call is to keep him in the starting XI and continue his upward trend.  He also provides much more going forward then Joe does and I suspect some good crossing will come in handy today if Watford defend in numbers.

      A change at center back given the recurring problems for a veteran there, makes much more sense to me.
