urban.spaceman Posted 11 February 2021 Posted 11 February 2021 2 hours ago, Deeg67 said: That's likely our best team at this point (Thomas or Fuchs is debatable - Christian is really a left-sided CB at this stage of his career) but you know there's not a chance in hell it'll happen. Brendo would start Albrighton or wheel Perez out there on a gurney before he'd start Under against Liverpool. Good point about Fuchs - he gives us the option to play 3 at the back with Ricardo and Thomas as wing backs. Either way he’s almost certain to play Albrighton instead of Under just for the experience and work rate needed, even though Under worked quite hard with VDC last night IMO.
Duquesne Whistle Posted 11 February 2021 Posted 11 February 2021 Without wanting to put to fine a point on it, some of last years decisions towards Man U, coupled with other strange decisions against the 'smaller' clubs near the top (notably Sheffield Utd) in the last quarter of the season make me nervous. Liverpool are genuinely faltering, and that doesn't suit the money men who will have loved their resurgence in the last 2 seasons. I genuinely hope we have a match won (by whomever) without controversy. We've got a chance in this one if we don't timidly stand back in awe, as we have done against them more often than not in recent times. Hope Wilf is 100% fit for this one. He'll be key if we're going to prevail. 1
Jazzy_Jeff Posted 11 February 2021 Posted 11 February 2021 I’d go with: Schmeichel Amartey Evans Soyuncu Ricardo Ndidi Tielemans Choudhury Maddison Vardy Barnes We have to play 3 in the middle against these, they always overrun us in midfield. Omitted Albrighton simply because we need to be clinical when we do have it and those three are by far our best attackers. Back 4 is a bit patched up but playing with a 3/5 will invite pressure at that’s the best 4 we have available imo

Although personally I would just bring Thomas in. I would not play Thomas he offered nothing last night has a wing back like pèrez just did not offer anything sorry if this upsets some of you but my opinion from last night Edited 11 February 2021 by lcfc cowboys

Let's hope their rot continues for a bit longer
Lesta2014 Posted 11 February 2021 Posted 11 February 2021 I’m dreading this, backlash from Sunday, wanting to win for klopp after his mum died, our defensive injuries. Long 90 minutes in store! Having said that if we score the first goal we will win!

Vardinio'sCat Posted 11 February 2021 Posted 11 February 2021 Bad time to be losing JJ, lets hope for a miracle.
urban fox Posted 11 February 2021 Posted 11 February 2021 Assuming JJ not going to be fit I would go with Fuchs in a back four with Evans, cages and Ricky P. Albrighton back for this one as even if Perez ok he had a poor game last night and we are going to need Marc’s work rate in this one. hence, Kasper RP JE Cags Fuchs Wilf Youri MA Barnes Maddison JV 1
daddylonglegs Posted 11 February 2021 Posted 11 February 2021 Likely that one of Henderson or Fabinho will come into their midfield for this one which makes it even more important that we play 3 in midfield.
Raw Dykes Posted 11 February 2021 Posted 11 February 2021 A win here would be immense, but I don't like our chances, despite Liverpool's form. I just want to see us start the game well and not show them too much respect as usual. JJ is a huge loss, especially with Castagne already missing. It probably means Brendan will go 3 at the back, which I don't want to see. What I predict: Kasper Amartey Evans Cags Ricardo Ndidi Tielemans Albrighton Maddison Barnes Vardy Subs: Ward, Fuchs, Thomas, Daley-Campbell, Mendy, Hamza, Tavares, Under, Nacho What I'd prefer: Kasper Ricardo Evans Cags Thomas Ndidi Tielemans Albrighton Maddison Barnes Vardy Subs: Ward, Amartey, Fuchs, Daley-Campbell, Mendy, Hamza, Tavares, Under, Nacho 4
Bert Posted 11 February 2021 Posted 11 February 2021 I can see it being Kasper Soyuncu Evans Fuchs Albrighton N’Didi Tielemans Ricardo Barnes Maddison Vardy 1
foxfanazer Posted 11 February 2021 Posted 11 February 2021 Just once Leicester please let us beat these. We've seen the blueprint on how to beat them by the likes of Burnley, Brighton and Villa so no reason we can't do it 2

We have one senior full back fit in Ricardo. Who else plays?
dynamark Posted 11 February 2021 Posted 11 February 2021 We could try the lad Fuchs he is supposed to be decent or Dan Amartey or even Albrighton at RB

RonnieTodger Posted 11 February 2021 Posted 11 February 2021 Fuchs would get absolutely rinsed at left-back against these.

We've seen the blueprint on how to beat them by the likes of Burnley, Brighton and Villa so no reason we can't There's one reason. We move the Ball too slowly at times up the pitch with everything going thru Youri. We need to find the spaces in between their defense as they're physically stronger than us. To do that we're going to have to counter quicker if that means a few long Balls to the forward players.
