Great quote about joining 'Injury FC' too. On loan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lovejoy Posted 29 September 2017 Share Posted 29 September 2017 4 minutes ago, Col city fan said: Koeman being interviewed after last night's match stating publically that his players 'are afraid to play forward' Bizarre stuff at Everton at the mo. Koeman strikes me as being hard work when the chips are down, more whingey than uplifting. I personally think he's only got himself to blame with his signings and the way he sets up the team, they're not exactly gung-ho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wymsey Posted 29 September 2017 Share Posted 29 September 2017 (edited) Sandro doesn't look like a 'quality' striker that some have claimed him to be, thus far. Sigurdsson looks average at the moment, although his free-kicks look alright. Benteke out for six weeks. http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/41444507 Edited 29 September 2017 by Wymeswold fox Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted 29 September 2017 Share Posted 29 September 2017 Benteke out till end of November could be the nail in the Palace coffin that we all hope for. What are the chances they still have 0 points when he returns? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wymsey Posted 29 September 2017 Share Posted 29 September 2017 Apparently, over the Christmas period, Liverpool have 4 games over 9 days.. Hope ours isn't too bad, considering we're not in European competition.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same amount of games as all other clubs. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just glad we've got a big enough squad in-depth to cope. I don't know why Klopp in particular is moaning about it, although it's linked with him also moaning about them likely to play on 24th December. If it's true the FA are thinking of introducing a winter break, not sure if this would make the fixture list worse after the Christmas period..

Let's hope we don't have any more injuries in central midfield or we could be looking at fielding an Amartey/Choudhury CM partnership at this rate! haha Purely from a selfish point of view, I'd hate to see a winter break come in. Going out with my mates and watching the footie on boxing day is a tradition I'd hate to lose. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isn't it so surprising that it's Liverpool who are singled out though eh. There's a massive culture of excuses surrounding that club. Nearly as bad as Arsenal.

Dan LCFC Posted 29 September 2017 Share Posted 29 September 2017 As for the winter break... I'd definitely do something about the absolute mess of fixtures around Christmas, and look to probably allocate one (say Huddersfield at home for us this year) to another point of the season, maybe even at the start or the end. But I'm well opposed to an actual break. Anyone who thinks the top clubs will use a winter break to do anything but play PSG and Barcelona in Malaysia and Qatar is kidding themselves. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Making European competitions straight knockout over two legs and reducing a couple of rounds would allow the chance to spread the league season out. How many weeks of the season does Europe take up? If you suggested that taking group stages away, would they agree? Of course not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
