Match Thread Liverpool v Everton, FA Cup 3rd Round, Friday 5th Jan 2018

[Super Kevin sheedy]

If you want it enough Everton the players and the manager you can do it, stand up to them, be strong, it's gone on too long now, it's not even funny anymore, 8000 fans will do their bit.

Good luck to Everton tomorrow night against the Republic of Norway from the Red half of Manchester

That Cenk lad would be outstanding for games like these. Likes getting in the opposition's head from the bits I've seen. I hope Klaassen plays. I don't know why. Klaassen always seemed to produce something in big games for Ajax.

Apart from the Europa League final where he was particularly crap ( in fact that's the only game I've ever watched him play before he signed for us )

 

[COYBL25]

Yeah my lad has just come in and said something along the lines of Allardyce saying he'll go with a strong team etc.

Ten defenders it is then

Ajax fans were gutted to lose him. The man for the moment he was. A mate of mine who supports PSV said Davy Klaassen was a real leader, and the only player they absolutely hated playing against. He's a true leader, and I can't help but feel that he's not living up to his potential right now.

Your not wrong about living up to his potential mate which is a shame. Time will tell if he gets a chance but I think it might be best for us to loan him out as he isn't even making the bench

The most concerning thing I heard when he was signing was that he tended to drift out of the game. When he got the ball he was class but just didn't do enough to get it. That seems to have come true

Yup. He's certainly drifted out of the game all right.

Hoping Storm Eleanor ensures Mane's flight back today from Accra to Liverpool was a lovely turbulent one.

No way is Klaassen getting the nod for this game.

 

[bullybeef]

Would go with the following:

Pickford

Kenny Holgate Williams Martina

Gana McCarthy

Lennon Siggurdsson Bolasie

Rooney

Then after 60 minutes take Bolasie off for Niasse and drop Rooney deeper and Davies for McCarthy. Niasse operates alot more effectively from the bench and DCL offers no threat at all and should only come on if we are losing and we need every forward on the pitch.

I think that’s close but I want Tosun to start up top if he signs in time.

Be tempted to have Rooney on the bench ready to come on if required.

Or have Siggy on the right and Rooney in behind Tosun.

 

[longers]

Sam will know the importance of this game to us blues and I think you'll see a much-improved performance from us than the last time we were there.I'm backing us for a win.COYB
