vs Norwich (A) Pre Match Thread

[Bernardicus]

I'd go with...

.................Mignolet..................
Johnson..Skrtel..Sakho..Flanagan
.................Gerrard...................
..........Allen..........Lucas............
................Coutinho..................
...........Suarez...Sterling............

If Sturridge is injured. I'd use Sterling similarly to Sturridge, using his pace. Stretching Norwich, create space for Suarez. It makes sure Suarez isn't isolated like if we went with 4-3-3.

i'll add at this point

the b dog does seem very good at just focusing on the next game - so i'm convinced it will be the strongest team we can play, with no thoughts of chelsea - he'll assess the chelsea game after norwich

with that in mind without Henderson and more than likely sturridge i agree with the team bernardicus's team

[TheElephantMan]

With Henderson suspended and Sturridge possibly injured our bench is going to look worryingly weak, certainly from a creative/attacking perspective. I have faith in Rodgers to deal with this, but just hope we don't pick up any injuries in the Norwich game.

I think I'd be looking to go with this, slight change in formation but we've used this plenty this season already and it's worked pretty well for us.

-----------------mignolet----------------

johnson-----skrtel-------sakho------flanno

-------------------gerrard--------------------
--------------Lucas----------Allen

sterling-------------suarez------------Coutinho

[Kloppster]

I'd like this one, push Gerard further up with license to roam

-----------------mignolet----------------

johnson-----skrtel-------sakho------flanno

-----------------Lucas-------------------
-----Gerrard-----------------Allen

Sterling--------------------------Coutinho

---------------suarez

[RedReet]

There is more chance of us playing Mignolet CF.

[Mark79]

Nah, we'd be mad to move Gerrard now.

[Fosterbloke]

Texeira or Alberto could do a job. They don't seem overawed and can keep possession and keep the ball moving forward.

Texeira would be the best person though for his mobility.

[Fierce]

I'd like this one, push Gerard further up with license to roam

-----------------mignolet----------------

johnson-----skrtel-------sakho------flanno

-----------------Lucas-------------------
-----Gerrard-----------------Allen

Sterling--------------------------Coutinho

---------------suarez

He's having what is up there with his best ever season, after moving further back; and you'd like to change that at the most important point of the entire season??

I'd go with that formation, but with Gerrard and Lucas swapped over

Then as a change, we could go with Aspas/Moses in place of Coutinho, who would drop back in place of Lucas

[fah-q]

I think this is the formation we need to beat Norwich.

--------------Suarez--------------------

[RichC]

Green card to watch this in the pub

What the Mrs doesn't know is there are 3 games on this Sunday MMwwwhahhahahhahah

[baitman]

I think this is the formation we need to beat Norwich.

--------------Suarez--------------------

although we need to collect the three points and we cannot take things for granted in any game...

for me, its not just about the formation to beat norwich as that shouldnt be the real issue. we should be looking to sort out a tight defensive formation that also allows for the three man attack to rampage. support from midfield and the full backs too.

get this drilled into the players and it should then be a smoother game against the plastic flags as we will have had a full game to try out the formation and plan.

------------Mignolet
Johnson Srktel Sahko Flanno
------------Gerrard
-------Allen -- Coutinho
-------------Sterling
----------Suarez Aspas

[Mattshark]

My team for Norwich:

THE MIG
Johnson - Skrtel - Sakho - Flanagan
Gerrard
Allen - Lucas
Sterling
Suarez - Moses

Why Moses over Coutinho? Countinho is significantly better than Moses.
