LCFC vs Liverpool - Match Thread

[Sir Shep]

What an inspired team selection, doesn't say at all incompetent back pass and lose possession for Liverpool's third after 20 minutes. Oh and how long before Evans is subbed off? No mendy, no KDH, get in the bin.

That long, I was thinking 12.

When do you reckon we'll concede the first goal? I'm guessing 7 minutes.

No way we last that long.

Cags has to be injured he's not even on the bench. If we don't have to defend much looks a reasonable line up going forward, but something tells me it won't pan out that way :(

Apart from including Mendy I really don’t know what else Smith can do! It’s not his fault the squad is shit!

 

Obviously Cags is injured and so is KDH. So what else can he do?

The Foxestalk select XI would no doubt get their arses kicked so you are right its not who he picks its whether they are prepared to give it their very best shot.

The optimism i’ve had all day is gone. A half fit right back, a midfield that cant run and is full of mistakes. Yeah we’re down without a whimper. 
 

Edit - just noticed Evans as well. Whos not fancied it all season. What a joke. 4-0 down at HT.

You had optimism? What gave you that?!

Genuinely thought there might be a reaction today but the inclusion of Evans who hasn’t fancied it all season is the nail in the coffin. More of the same.

Yea I just looked straight at the midfield. He hasn’t learnt his lesson and they’ll just wander and meander around like headless chickens 

Cant get my head around it, we’ve needed energy for weeks and Tielemans and Soumare do not provide that. 

[Simonb]

Only hope is get the ball to madders and hope he feeds vardy.. that midfield is woeful.. tielmanns is slow, the other 2 can't pass.. unfit Evans and Ricky p.. terrible team.. 0-3 half time.. assume cags unfit

 What they been doing in training as Smith said no new injuries on Friday

[fazzyfox]

Smith to Red Cross - "Can you prepare a stretcher for Evans, we'll be needing it"

Red Cross Man "We'll bring it out after half an hour or so so it's ready"

Smith "No, I need it for 5 to 8 to gerrim onto the pitch"

[merlin1969]

Cags and KDH injured 

[Richmondfox]

Watch Henderson carry the ball all the way from his half into our box while Soumare jogs 5 metres behind him. 
 

Castagne will give away a penalty and also be way out of position like always, giving their attackers all the space they need.

Knew the "injuries have stopped happening since Smith arrived" theory was too good to be true.

[Lcfc-1992]

Ward injured. Season over

[weller54]

1-5...

Guaranteed the contest will be over by the 20th minute. 

That team selection is just beyond belief!!🤬

[NasPb]

mendy should be in for ndidi imo

[StanSP]

Guessing Ward has played with several dislocated fingers all season then but Rodgers was too stupid to realise.
