Bournemouth vs Liverpool (A) Match Thread - COC Quarter Final

[Gazzla]

Lallana has started off really well, that means he'll be getting subbed

[RedRum]

Decent game so far, good tempo.

[RichC]

I think we've looked decent enough so far, team is screaming for a genuine striker though

[Roboklopp]

Is this on council tellies? Not at home.

???

You'd think our constant ability to not finish chances would alter our current decision to not play strikers.

I know Borini is hardly top drawer but it would make sense to stick someone up front with at least some experience of putting the ball in the net, to avoid the numerous squandered chances and then concede at the other end in a swift but effective attack thing we have going.

highlights/lowlights tonight on the beeb.

It's not as if the strikers we do have have set the world alight hence them being left out I guess.

They've not set the world alight, no, but scoring against a championship side shouldn't be beyond them.

[baitman]

noticed a little earlier that when bournmouth broke our midfield and the defence all ran backwards.

no one made a challenge. top defensive coaching... wtf do they chat about.

[RedRum]

We have some real quality in attack.

[RichC]

Of course it shouldn't, thing is if he'd started Borini or Lambert he'd be lambasted for starting with ****e strikers.

[RichC]

What a goal

[Daniel 7]

Wow! Brilliant goal that!

[RichC]

Lovely play and build up for that

[Chris]

That is ****ing stunning
