Liverpool v Newcastle United - match thread

[Fivex]

Why?

Fear of scrabble

[Craig_H]

As is always the case at Anfield, an early goal should set us up nicely. Struggle to get one and then the tension will magnify as the game goes on.

[Rabiosa]

Wouldnt have minded seeing Shelvey start either.


Why?

Cabaye and Tiote will batter our centre mids, Guttierez will take advantage of Johnson's attacking positioning and Obertan the same.

Haris Vuckic!!!

i hope he scores, and we win!

Really? You'd think they'd be at Man City if they were that amazing.

Media hype.

Why would you want another player to score against us?!

[Craig_H]

Only one i'm worried about is Ba.

Well not really as Yaya and Silva and Nasri ect are better then them, but they are 2 class players and Tiote is a tank.

he's from Slovenia, and he's a great prospect. i think this is a little bit patriot thing

Newcastle XI

Krul; Simpson, Williamson, Coloccini, R Taylor; Obertan, Tiote, Cabaye, Gutierrez; Vuckic, Ba

The midfield battle will be interesting. I think Tiote and Cabaye have done pretty well together especially the latter.

Not suprised to see Vuckic starting. He's been getting rave reviews in the academy and reserves for the past couple of seasons.

[Mostar]

Partly agree with Matt, although options might've been a bit limited - but Maxi should be playing, he's always got a goal in him.

Aye.

He scored what 2 time in 3 games he played as starter but I think Kenny said he needs to manage his time carefully as he is getting there in terms of age.

They're decent/good players. But massively overhyped and nothing to be 'scared' of.

[Exiled_red]

Krul's going to have a great game isn't he?

[Craig_H]

It's only **** keepers that nobody's ever heard of and that never play, who turn into the ******* child of Gordan Banks and Lev Yashin against us. Good ones dont tend to.

Well they are better than our's so i am scared of them, Gutierrez too, Kelly would of bin perfect for this game.
