He is better than Massimo Oddo though.

Breel Embolo broke his ankle and fibula.

Work is going to drag so much today.

 

[Lunar FC]

Guess I'm watching the game in business law class tomorrow. I hate these Monday games..

 

[NHale]

I know it's early in the season and even 3 weeks ago everyone was convinced that Man City would run away with the title this year and 1 month ago Wenger should be fired but if Man Utd loses today, they are 6 pts behind from 1st and 5pts behind 4th and then they go to Chelsea on Sunday.

So they are at serious risk of going 8pts behind 4th by next Sunday. Nobody at the start of the season would ever imagine United being out of the CL next year but if the lose the next 2 games, oh boy....

But this were always the games were Mourinho teams show if they are title caliber teams or not (parking the bus and win 1-0 or tie 0-0). If they lose both, they are done and the press will start charging against him again.

Sooo... Psg is 2nd, Barca is 4th with Real and Atletico being just a point above Sevilla, BM is just 2 points above 2nd and 3rd, the first four teams in PL are all very close...

and then there's Juve. 5 points above Milan(lol) and Roma. We're probably the only actual contender along with Roma, but we're 7 point down due to a combination of not having a cf(Milik can't come back soon enough), refs stealing us 4 points and a coach who doesn't know how to deal with subs(now that we have pretty good players to sub)

At this point I just want to pass the group stage, by February we should have Milik back I guess so maybe we can have a decent round of 16th I guess? Other than that, fuck this season already


edit: assuming Milik doesn't pull a Rafael Cabral and comes back as a shit player despite playing very well before the injury.

 

[T-Rex.]

I was really confident of us beating Utd, but now I'm reading on Twitter etc that Moreno might be starting at LB. Smh.

 

[McMoneyman]

Bricking it already.

 

[Jarnet87]

I think Mou will stick with Pogba and Herrera in midfield, Mata in front of them. Bit torn because I would rather start 3 in midfield but Mata has done really well against Pool since joining United. Excited to see what Jose does

Alternatively, if we win tonight we're at serious risk of having 19 points on Sunday. The press are still more concerned with Rooney for the time being I'd say.

I'm really nervous as well

Why is everyone saying that Pogba isnt performing? I havent had a chance to watch him play in PL this season, but just looking at his stats and ratings for what he's done this year it seems that he's the best player on ManU atm.

:lol

You need to compare him his Juve games, not at stats.

 

[VLiberty]

Pogba has always been overrated. 100+ milions are absolutely crazy, and the fact that United (which let him go for free) of all the teams bought him for that money is something lol-worthy for the next 25 years

 

[TeddyBoy]

Managed to get a ticket for the big game tonight, I've been predicting 0-1 to United for the last two weeks so I sure as hell hope I'm wrong! xD

Good shite. Bring back some pool goal celebration pics. 👍

 

[bjaelke]

Club football is finally back. I've found myself playing games for the past week just trying to pass time.

---

Karius; Clyne, Matip, Lovren, Milner; Henderson, Can; Coutinho, Firmino, Mane; Sturridge.

De Gea; Valencia, Bailly, Smalling, Blind; Fellaini, Pogba; Rashford, Herrera, Young; Ibrahimovic.

 

[privitsan02]

Big game, big moment. This is our chance to tie for first place and go 6-points ahead of United, we have to take our chances here.

Lallana on bench. C'mon Klopp!

Best wishes.

 

[Jarnet87]

Return of the fellaigoat, and Ashley young (da fuq). Saw a tweet that Martial picked up a minor knee injury, but why not start Lingard or put Young on the left and Mata on the right

 

[DKehoe]

Martial and Mkhitaryan not even on the bench?

Edit: Martial injured apparently and I guess this isn't really the game to bring Mkhitaryan back for. Rushing him back for the city game was a mistake

Going to break the 81 crosses record you set against Fulham.

 

[NHale]

Fellaini and Young starting and a midfield of Fellaini-Pogba-Herrera. Park the bus after warming in hotel car park.

Enjoy the easy win Liverpool fans.

EDIT - Can't wait for Mourinho to start Fellaini-Herrera-Carrick-Pogba-Ibra next week to avoid a defeat vs. Chelsea. Poor Schneiderlin can't do anything with this fucking guy.

 

[T-Rex.]

C'mon Reds.

 

[panty]

Hala Liverpool!

 

[WadiumArcadium]

Martin Tyler and Gary Neville. Not biased at all.

 

[CrayToes]

Martin Tyler and Gary Neville. Not biased at all.

Can't wait for Tyler to cream himself over a Fellaini tap-in in the 85th minute.

 

[Syder]

A team with Fellaini & Young is such a mismatch to how Liverpool have been playing this season.

 

[RiggyRob]

Martin Tyler and Gary Neville. Not biased at all.

I'm glad the opposing fans can see it.

Tyler'a not a United fan, he's a drama fan, and Neville's fairly impartial in commentary.

 

[Empty]

zlatan has spent too much time in close proximity to luiz smh

 

[WadiumArcadium]

United are definitely the superior team so far. No flow to our game at all yet.

 

[Lunar FC]

Can't put two passes together rn.

 

[Empty]

combative approach in midfield working nicely but we're not really opening liverpool up

 

[CrayToes]

United have sadly been very good so far. Not surprising really.

 

[MoodyFog]

We are good, whew

 

[elseanio]

Dunno what's up with our passing and first touch. All off.

 

[Syder]

Liverpool should stop signing blond goalkeepers.

 

[CrayToes]

Dunno what's up with our passing and first touch. All off.

Utd are completely boxing us in. Mouriniho has our number.

 

[Syder]

United playing such a deep defensive line that if Liverpool try to press they leave themselves really exposed.

 

[bjaelke]

Good thing the media hasn't been building up to this game for 2 weeks.

 

[King_Moc]

Sturridge has been pretty dire here. Need to get him off, Lallana on, and move Firmino up top.

 

[Beefy]

This game is just.....

 

[RiggyRob]

This game is just.....

Mourinho's game so far is what it is.

Lovely to see the impartial ref not be influenced.

 

[KingSnake]

What a boring game so far. United doesn't try and Liverpool can't.

 

[Audioboxer]

Mou has managed to frustrate Liverpool with his tactics. IF and it's a big IF he can snatch a winner, classic Mou.
