Liverpool v West Ham

[Buzzo]

Weds 7:45 (a)

Nothing but a win will do vs resurgent WHU. Would take us level with Spurs, who play ManU on Thurs.

Same team again? Or is Diaz ready to start?

I’d go.

Diaz not ready. His time on the pitch so far has been little more than a gentle run out. So Jota retains his place,

I agree though with swapping Hendo out for Thiago.

[Mark79]

Darwin is due a start. Just 1 in the last 5.

[frank the tank]

I think the front 3 starts again. Jota on fire scoring wise and works hard which will be important v west ham

[baitman]

Jota for the 2nd 45 minutes, obvs

[Buzzo]

Ah ****. No chance if we are wearing this kit. Wear the green one.

[Harv]

Have we actually won a game in that kit?

[Buzzo]

I don’t think so. Maybe 1 draw.

[Doc_Piptorious]

Tough enough game for us and one that will show if our current uptick in form is true form or just a blip.


West Ham have lost one in their last six at home (a 5-1 thrashing by Newcastle) but they have played a lot of teams that we have also played lately ( They beat Forest 4-0, they drew 2-2 with Arsenal, 1-1 with Chelsea).

So they seem to be getting similar results against similar strength teams of late.

We need to win, they need to win, so a draw would not be a good result for either team. Hopefully they come at us and leave some room for our attackers to exploit.

Rice, Antonio and Bowen seem to all have come into a vein of form of late so hope we start with the midfield that Buzzo put up in the OP.

You'd drop Jota after scoring 4 in 2?

Diaz can wait. Hoping he gets 30 minutes in this one though.

[Shaggy]

I've got the same vibe I got before Newcastle away - fancy us big time, and that's in a season when I've hardly ever had this feeling. Come on Redmen

****in big time.

Defence will need to sort themselves out though. I think if we get the first goal though then we should be fine

I always like at least one controversial pick in any lineup I put out.

This is the best front three for me. Can’t wait to see it.

I think I would give Diaz 30 minutes tomorrow, then possibly start him against Spurs on Sunday.

Jota and Hendo will start, no need to change a winning team
