Subscriber RandoEFC+ Posted November 6, 2020 Subscriber Share Posted November 6, 2020 I'm backing Liverpool here unfortunately. Not been impressed by City this season. They've won most games in second gear but not shown much evidence that they've got much more to go to beyond that. Liverpool have struggled more defensively even before Van Dijk was injured but part of that was down to Adrian in goal, and in the other two thirds of the pitch it's been pretty much business as usual for them. If City get the first goal though, I reckon they'll win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucas Posted November 6, 2020 Share Posted November 6, 2020 I will nail my colours to the mast here and say I fancy City to win. I feel it's a game they really have to win too to ensure Liverpool don't build up any further momentum. They have tightened up the back with Diaz and Laporte together and whilst the goals haven't been free flowing, they have had to get through weeks without a recognised striker. Sunday they should have Jesus starting centrally rather than using a makeshift forward, meaning Sterling, KDB and Foden will be exactly where Pep want's them to be. I think they'll edge it 2-1.

Dr. Gonzo Posted November 6, 2020 Share Posted November 6, 2020 This one is always tough to predict. Without Virgil at the back, I can't say that I'm confident we'll keep goals out against this attack. I just hope we can get at their defense better than they can get at ours.

Administrator Stan Posted November 6, 2020 Author Administrator Share Posted November 6, 2020 Score draw or one team winning it 4-3. Just how mad this season is that it's bound to live up to expectations with all the good players on show. I hope so anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LFCMike Posted November 6, 2020 Share Posted November 6, 2020 Could be anything. Certainly a must not lose for City though, even at this early stage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Artful Dodger Posted November 6, 2020 Share Posted November 6, 2020 Lot of clamour for Jota to get the nod but I don't see it, Firmino really does provide something essential to the side, even if his goalscoring has dropped. Jota will eventually replace him I'm sure but against the best opposition they're likely to face I think Firmino will provide that key understanding with Mane/Salah which can produce space for goals.

I agree to a point although I think having three players capable of running in behind could be the way to beat these Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subscriber Mel81x+ Posted November 8, 2020 Subscriber Share Posted November 8, 2020 All really depends on who ends up in midfield tonight. They have to stop KDB from getting into rhythm and be able to push the balls wide to allow Trent or Robbo to link with the front three. In the end I think we'll win, narrowly but we'll win.

MUFC Posted November 8, 2020 Share Posted November 8, 2020 Am going for a a Liverpool win or a draw, but if Gomez starts I'll favor City in a close game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy Blue Posted November 8, 2020 Share Posted November 8, 2020 We haven't got going yet this season but our defence has been better with Dias & Laporte, Walker is in the form of his life and Cancelo has impressed at LB ..good to have Jesus back too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

De Bruyne seems to do so, anyway. That one player who can perform about 2 or 3 levels above everyone else and understand what's needed in a game whether you're playing well or not.

Think it was Sheffield United we did that against before and it didn't look too clever. You lose so much from Salah in build up by playing him up top, but hopefully City give us enough space in behind that he can make up for it in that phase Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s possible but it Manchester City can retain the ball in midfield then there isn’t that much of a shield for Liverpool’s defence. A brace exciting call by klopp though.
