Liverpool v Bitters build up thread

Just being curious, how old are you?

30 mate

[danperkins]

Real age or mental age?

Any ideas what sort of team Everton will put out?

Think they are missing Fellani/Pienaar/Saha/Rodwell out and Jagielka doubtful so thats big bonus.

I reckon it'll be something like:

-----------------Howard----------------
Hibbert--Jagielka??/Heitenga??--Distin--Baines
Arteta--Osman--Neville/Heitenga--Bilyaletinov
-------------Cahill-Yak----------------

If Konch is marking Arteta it worries me as Konchesky has a tendancy to stand off players and with Artetas delivery, Cahill's aerial ability and our shoddy defence especially in the air, recipe for disaster.

Agree, share your concerns

Hibbert is absolutely gash, Cole should really be looking to get at him

was wondering would Moyes play Coleman instead at RB, Coleman looks a prospect although young and very raw IMO i think Moyes will go for the experience of Hibbert.

And yes Hibbert is muck haha, love to see Cole going at him, i don't like Cole playing at LM but sure we have **** all other options in that position. On paper we should beat them but sure anything goes in the derby and both teams have started horribly this season, hard to call. IMO scrappy win for us and a poxy game to watch.

I'm guessing a poor one , embarrassingly poor one even

[Fernandinho]

Howard
Hibbert-Distin-Jagielka-Baines
Arteta-Heitinga-Osman-Pienaar
Cahill
Yakubu

Thats my guess...

[SK]

i'm really looking forward to this one...the takeover might spark a bit of energy and desire into the team, and we've had a decent record against everton in recent seasons(not that it matters nowadays mind).

come on you redmen!!!

Paul Tomkins reckons it's Cole off Torres, then I would assume Meireles right and Maxi on the left.

Laughable if true.

So, Carra at right back, Meireles on the right, Maxi left - three players totally out of position.

And Gerrard, IMO, not in his best position and ditto Joe Cole. That's half the ****ing team. Square pegs in round holes. **** this Hodgson, **** this. Just leave.

[Fernandinho]

To be fair I think Joe is best in the middle compared to Joe on the left, he isn't the best in our team through the middle but

[Reece]

No doubt the media will ignore it though. Yet when Rafa played one player out of position he was cracking up. Grrrr.

[wiw]

It could be Meireles on the left, you never know eh

Yeah that's arguable but if you ask me he's hardly ever played there in his entire career. The Joe Cole we all know has forged his reputation playing wide.

Yep. The hypocrisy/double-standards from the press over Rafa/Roy is ****ing ridiculous.

Don't laugh - one tweeting journo had that as the case yesterday.....
