Liverpool (H) 16/9: Build-Up & Match Thread

[The Bear]

Silva or Sasa or anybody on for Cunha please.

Weirdly I'd rather take Hwang off. He's been a bit anonymous apart from his goal. Certainly in an attacking sense. And doesn't link up particularly well with Semedo either.

Maybe push Bellegarde into a narrow right sided role and bring on Sasa ahead of Cunha.

Cunha is playing well, no way we take him off.

 

[Dire Wolf]

That was basically total domination apart from not being more than 1 goal in front. We were by far the better team. Not sure who had the better half: Neto, Semedo, Bellegarde, Joao Gomes or RAN. All have been brilliant. Neto just about.

 

[Elephant Pyjamas]

I'm absolutely amazed people are suggesting a half time sub after that performance.

 

[Del Woppio]

My old man is a united fan, making Keane comparisons with Gomes all half. The kid is an absolute sensation

 

[Alan]

I would never have believed that Liverpool had ~150 passes more than us that half. Says a lot about who actually controlled things.

It makes all Tactical Tingly to control a match without possession.

New here?

 

[Leigh Griffiths' Hairline]

Full ten minutes of half time analysis lamenting how bad Liverpool have been. 2 seconds of "yeah wolves have been excellent but missed a sitter and should be 5 nil up cos Liverpool have been SO BAD"

fuck off, media.

 

[Del Woppio]

The striker's inability to take chances could cost us the game?

 

[Alan]

They have been crap tbf.

 

[Derby Wolf]

Outstanding for the most part.

Stand out is obviously Neto but also RAN who has done really well behind him.

Need to take chances though, Cunha missed the sitter and then the second chance he had after bursting past 4 of theirs he had Neto in acres if space when the shot wasn't on.

I can handle him not scoring if his assists make up for it.

 

[Freddeno]

I note we've done a lot less passing out the back from Sa?

Only a good thing

 

[Freddeno]

Neto looking gutted walking off...

Injured or just annoyed at only being 1 up?

The latter I think

 

[Jack Regan]

Diaz on for them.

 

[Elephant Pyjamas]

The striker's inability to take chances could cost us the game?

He had a big part to play in the goal we did score, and has created a couple of his own chances too.

1-0 up against Liverpool, really good performance - let's make a half time sub!! It's bad management, no way Sasa can play with the intensity that Cunha has been either.

 

[prawnking]

Klopp will be changing things up now so bit of a test for GON now

 

[Jack Regan]

Should be 1-1 already.

 

[Elephant Pyjamas]

There CM should be totally dominated by us now.

 

[Alan]

Bit of a let-off, that.

Expect they’ll be flying for a bit here.

Yeah I get that, it's just a bit of emotional reaction I guess, obviously not helped by the fact it's a frequent problem with him
