Match Thread Liverpool v Everton - Sunday 10th December

Kyriagos the last player to be sent off for them against us. 60 minutes against 10 men at Anfield. We lost 1-0. Everton

Tim Howard flapping round for a corner followed by us barely registering a shot on target.

Then again, those were practically the glory days compared to recent years at Anfield.

Barbie says it is a Blue win, maybe by 2 goals to their 1? Soggy is the hero.

Then again, Barbie was sectioned with me.

I would rather this wasn't happening tbh.

They have better quality and more depth in their forwards. It's more or less even at the back. I think we will do well to salvage a point. Ten men behind the ball from the first whistle. If we score at all, it will be on the counter. Hoping for the best, but not expecting it. COYB

Set pieces are the obvious source of joy for us but you can bet we'll either not get any or hit the front man on every single one.

Really wish we Barkley for this, given that we're basically going to have to play on the counter, he could have done damage.

Lennon, Sig and DCL/Niasse will have to make the most of any opportunity when the ball breaks.

5-0 them and I'm not kidding

 

[MikeH72]

After the Southampton game I was absolutely convinced I wasn't watching this.

Two wins haven't made me optimistic as, being the same age as you OP, I've seen us roll over for our annual tummy tickle far too many times to let expectation grow. Still, the two wins mean I'll tune in despite a likely bumming.

No. Don't cave in.

 

[heatmeiser]

The referee to give a dodgy pen to them after 5 minutes just to kill off any lingering feelings of optimism.

Late red for us just to rub it in. Probably Davies.

Believe!

Don't think it will be a 4 or 5-0 bumming to them, but also don't see us getting any joy.

2-0 to those who live in their respective Mothers' basements.

Mo Salah and Sadio Mane running at Ashley Williams and Cocu freaking Martina.

Weirdly glad we have that pointless European game on thursday so I don't dwell on this all week. I'm not sure we will ever win another derby so let's just get it over with and with as little emotional scarring as possible.

Big Sam gets a free pass for this, I'm prepared for a drubbing. If we can show some organisation and fight, it'll be a start.
