Just win the game by any means

Letsss gooooo

As we know, Steptoe still has a bit of pace about him, and he does know how to put the ball in the old onion bag given the chance. Apart from that they don't offer much, so with the current form of both, im expecting a resounding win. There's always the danger that a team can find something special on any given day, but i'm confident of a win. As long as the lads have laid off the Christmas pud, im going for 5 - 0.  Biggest prediction I've gone for that I can remember, so hope it brings home seven big ones. More importantly, three prem points.   

On a side note: Im expecting Fulham to get a point today as well. 

Gone for a rather modest 3  1 win for the Reds, although the main thing is all three points.

The way we are scoring & conceding lately, almost impossible to predict the final scoreline.

Only shot leicester have in my opinion is if we start bad again 🙄 and they get something to hold onto.

Its a game thats all about us really. Do our thing and we take 3 points. Be nice to get a clean sheet too after the recent carnage.

Not impressed with Van Nistelrooy and Leicester have made a mistake. Needs an experienced man to keep them up. We'll show no mercy and I expect us to give them a sound battering. Same team that started V Spurs. Get a few subs on, keep them fresh for Wham away.

4-0

I’m hoping we hand out another six goal battering, Foxes are sh*te, worse than Spuds so although no games are easy this one feels like a home banker….. it should be….

I’d play the same X1 vs Spuds, keep that confidence high as well as momentum, I want to see us being absolutely ruthless, in fact I’d be saying 4 goals minimum against this opponent,

I see no threat from Leicester, don’t think Vardy is available so even less of a threat, even if there was one, depending on what they bring to the table will influence how we play, don’t see them attacking us too much so could be one of those frustrating games where they sit in 10 behind the ball,

However they decide to play it won’t be good enough, no where near!!


4-0 Champions Elect !!

gakpo Szoboszlai, nunez and Gravenberch all a yellow away from a ban. a product of the ludicrous way games are being officiated. something to keep an eye on

Suspect Arne will make a couple of changes to keep people fresh. Jones very likely in for Mac or Grav. Jota or Darwin up top. He'd probably like to start Kostas n Harvey as well but doubt they are ready for that yet.

Anyway, it's a good fixture to make a few changes. They were pretty poor already but RVN seems to have added defensive shakiness to their lack of goals. Fancy us to beat them  convincingly, as long as everybody is at it.

Leicester have conceded 82 shots in new manager’s FOUR games in charge.

Seemed our front men will have some chances in front of goal vs them.

Is there a “reset” date if they don’t get a additional yellow card?

Yes, after 19 games it gets reset.

Rumors are fog might be an issue for the game? Not sure what to think

Game In doubt be a nightmare if this has to be rescheduled

Talk of a pitch inspection at 4pm...

Time to get the big fans out....

Not sure it's true although Tranmere off they still expect should be ok

Yeah hopefully. Fog can shift fairly quickly, and the game's a few hours away...

Start bad again?? Not like it's happened that often under Slot.

Once travelled up 200 miles for a mud week cup game v arse, and the game was called off about 20 mins before ko.
By ko time, the fog had cleared 😱
Hope they’re not gonna be to haste today. 😳

Hope the game goes ahead, especially for fans going to the game.

Also hope the Reds provide the knockout punch to floor Leiester, later this evening.

Tweeted earlier that the game is still scheduled
To go ahead and contrary to reports of a pitch inspection at 4pm this has been debunked by the officials who insist that  no pitch inspection will take place.

Chelsea are losing with one minute to go against Fulham.

Chelsea lost so this is a good time to take advantage and win!

Simply have to capitalise. Come on you redmen

Excellent, thank you good boy Harry Wilson  haha

Deffo need to take advantage tonight.

We need to win this no question asked.

Come on Reds.

[James Pearce] Liverpool still expecting game to go ahead tonight. No 4pm Pitch inspection.

You are right...

4 points lead.  Two games in hand.  Let's capitalise.

I told the Chelsea fan in the Classic Football Store in London that I viewed Arse as the title rival and he ask why I didn't fancy them, and I told him "defending in the big moments will get ya"......

I bet he remembers me right now 😎

I was hoping that Fulham could get something from the game. A draw perhaps, but didn’t expect them to win to be fair.

Gotta make it count now. An opportunity to be taken, not squandered.
Must go out there with a cold clinical mindset. 6:0 or 1:0 in off Trent’s arse Will do. Just bring the points home lads.

Gonna be foggy, hope that doesn't hurt us....

Have heard that Diaz isn’t in the squad due to his father having a heart attack and Nunez starts

That man, and indeed his family, haven't had an easy time of it these last couple of years...
God speed in his recovery... YNWA
