Put defenders on the goal line, repeat, put defenders on the goal line.

They'll be hitting corners to the front stick and flicking them on or trying to score.

They love the near post corner to Soucek for the flick on but I’m sure we’ll be aware of that.

I'm meeting a couple of lads down an alleyway in the Northern Quarter on Saturday night for a scrap so another one won't hurt.

Six onto one, Jack Reacher stylee... remember, you asked for this

[Maxiedge]

West Ham are likely to be a huge threat from corners and freekicks. Huge team plus the best dead ball player in the top flight in Ward Prowess. Just need to have our scoring boots on and try not to concede needless stuff. Tricky game.

Going off that, we do actually have alot of 6 foot plus players but I think the lineup will be determined by freshness from the game on Thursday. Maybe no Nunez and Gravenberch from the start.

[Shaggy]

Replied to your PM and put my own number in it.

Not sure if I will be able to meet, but you see that number and it is me.

Won't dick you around and say I will be here or there this far ahead though.


My trips to Liverpool are kind of like your trips back to Ireland and like the one you have planned for next month in that I try to catch up with a number of people I like and love that I do not get the chance to see enough of the rest of the time so I am rarely not in the company of someone or other when other.


If I think I can make the time and place you mentioned in your PM, I will message on the day at the time you suggested, if not then you have not changed any part of your own weekend and have not been put out.





EDIT: Though if that lump of knob rot Shaggy wants to meet in Manchester for a scrap before I get my flight home, I would be happy to meet him. You know why Sufjan Shaggy....I will never forgive

Sunday 2pm.

Guess much of it picks itself. Obvious selection issues are probably up front - do Gakpo and Jota come in after getting 0 minutes last night and Diaz and Nunez playing 90?

Personally I'd go with Nunez and Diaz again and play Gakpo and Jota against Leicester.

Another issue for me is having to sacrifice much of Alexis' quality by playing him as the 6. Endo looks well short at the moment so we're gonna have to play Mac there. It's a waste, and becoming a bit of an issue for us.


Ali

Gomez/TAA
Konate
VvD
Robbo

Mac Allister
Szoboszlai
Jones

Salah
Nunez
Diaz

Gomez over TAA at the mo' (give Trent minutes from the bench, if fit). Also think Matip is currently better than VvD but unlikely that the captain will be dropped.

Also need to stop the inverted FB/CB ****.

I’m staying down the docks as well, Sat a write off with stuff to do but surely a pre game handshake can be arranged. I’ve sent on my number plus we are in the Kop also

I’ll be disappointed Jaco if we don’t say hello I got stiffed by Dan when in Dublin many years ago…… et tu Jaco??

Probably, but not a defo, a no show from me as will be staying at Michelle's place on the Albert Dock and also meeting friends and family still living in Liverpool.

Have to go property viewing with her which I am now assuming is going to eat a good chunk of Saturday during the afternoon.

Going to the game as well. Have the late flight to Liverpool out of Cork tonight then the early flight from Manchester to Cork on Sunday morning Doh is the 21:55 flight into Cork on Sunday night.


Will be in my usual spot on the Kop beside Michelle. In other words I am in what she calls the bitch seat

Been years since we lost a league game I have been at, so am giving your son a Doc P guarantee * of seeing a win tomorrow afternoon.



Also have the "pleasure" of having to go look (ha more like been told I am going whether I like it or not) at properties tomorrow before the game in the Tobacco Warehouse and at a penthouse apartment across from the Liver building.

None are for me, but as I fancy a move back to Liverpool again some time in the future and as I may have a time limit in doing so it will not hurt to have a peep.


But I am being rewarded with a steak dinner and have been told that it will either be at the Cowshed or Hawksmoor in the earlyt night after the game.


I really am a simple creature. Offer me a tasty meat dinner and I just roll over for almost anyone.






* Even more worthless than a Jaco_P guarantee


Edit: game is on Sunday and flight home arrives on Sunday night not morning. Knew the flight was arriving in Cork at 9 something, just 21 hundred nine and not AM 9 lol.

No idea why I had it so arse ways. Even had to double check tonight's flight just in case I effed that up too Great even more time to be stuck looking at properties and no match on Saturday to speed that process up


Still no game on Saturday means there is a chance I can wangle a trip to the Swinging Arm in Birkenhead after din dins on Saturday night.

So we have to meet - I’ll PM you my number
