EPL Matchday 22

[Bostonian]

Almost that way.

 

[Bostonian]

How will we **** it up this game is the pressing question.

******* comical is how, picked it.

 

[hawkman]

Murray up and playing again. Happy to see the ref play on there, might stop others staying down if it could cost a goal

Copped a hand to the side of the face but I don't think there was enough force to knock him over.

 

[Fryer Tuck]

Well, well...


According to the club, Silva is eligible. I hope they've got that right this time, and we're not going to lose three points or something like that.

Surely if there was a problem, someone from the FA would just tell Leicester to swap him out of the bench for some kid.

 

[hawkman]

Good game by 2 teams that showed attacking intent. Mourinho would have hated watching that

 

[RossFC]

3-5 points breathing room for Brighton and Bournemouth on 18th placed West Ham but the Hammers have 2 games in hand.

Nothing to worry about as it was able to be officially completed once the window reopened

And one of those 2 games is West Brom at home

According to what I heard, the '24 hour' wait is one set out by The (English) FA, and not FIFA. The FA approved the registration in the previous window, but FIFA didn't, which is why we couldn't play him. Because he was FA approved, he is allowed to play against Udders.

No Coutinho. Injured, rested or wrapped in cotton wool?

Played 2 days ago, being rested just like Firmino, Matip and Robertson. Expecting he'll play vs Everton in the FA cup.

 

[Visions]

No Salah or Coutinho, and Solanke chosen to start ahead of Firmino.

Klopp allowing Burnley to have a real shot at it.

No Vardy

Good to finally see Silva. Hopefully Slimani can prove some people wrong and score.

Reading he has a thigh injury.

Don’t understand resting Centrehalves. How do you build cohesion as a partnership if you’re constantly changing them?

Fullbacks are a little different as they can play like wingers running up and back but CB should try and build some semblance of synergy between the two best.

Matip came back from an injury about a week ago so he probably isn't fit enough to play after a 2 day break.

Well that’s fair enough for today given the schedule.
Would I be right in saying it’s been happening for a while?

Most likely because it's either Matip has been injured or when he's fit, Lovren has to get rested a bit because he's on painkillers.

So we have been constantly rotating 3 CBs in 2 spots.

Edit: For 1 game we had Can and Wijnaldum in a back 3.

 

[largebus]

Looking pretty lifeless so far, not surprised

 

[Zidane98]

Gonna be a hard slog today.

 

[Visions]

Still waiting for Solanke to do something productive in a Liverpool shirt.

 

[moomba]

Read yesterday that something like 29% of the 0-0 draws in the league this season have come over the Christmas period. Wonder if that stay rings true over other years.

That trend might continue if #lolmou parks the bus at Goodison.
