NP: "Hull win was important but we've got to back it up today. Most won't give us a chance, but we have to give ourselves a chance."

lol. So why is Hammond starting? Why are Cambiasso and Ulloa not starting? (At least De Laet is starting)

Do you really need it explaining?

Is he trying to make life difficult for himself?

 

If this goes wrong, that line he loves about how 'people who aren't involved in football should keep quiet' is going to ring especially hollow. Because I'm not involved in football and that looks like suicide.

 

If we get a draw, of course, it'll be a masterstroke!

4-3-3 or 4-5-1 with De Laet and Simpson full backs I'd imagine.

Oddly enough it's exactly the team I thought he might play. Ulloa was absolutely shattered the last game, Cambiasso will struggle with games so close together.

Glad Hammond is back in the fold. Looked excellent this year and played a key part in our great start.

 

Pack the midfield, get Vardy in from a central position (finally!) Strangely optimistic here - I can't see the Scousers getting nearly as much freedom in midfield today, and our extra men there may help on the counter.

C'mon you blues.

 

I'd feel happier if the side that played and won last week (minus Konchesky) was given another go. After all, unsettled sides and formations were central to our collapse in form. A heavy defeat and he could be in trouble all over again, and people will be asking whether he's learned from his errors.

 

But it could work out, needless to say.

He knows the condition of the players far better than we do. Also Ulloa up against 3 big CBs wouldve been a mismatch. With Vardy there there's less of a temptation to lump it.

Pearson seems to always generate a random team/formation on New Years day.

 

:xmaslaugh:  So true. Remember Kennedy, Tunchev and Moore playing against Palace a few years back.

Really do get irritated with some of the shite he comes out with sometimes. Nailed-on defeat before the game's bloody started. No chance of a goal, no chance of a clean sheet. 3-0 Liverpool.

 

Vardy up top ffs.

Posted

I would guess

                    Hamer

Simpson Morgan Wasyl Schlupp

                Hammond

De Laet James Drinkwater Mahrez

                     Vardy

But the Hull game wasn't 7 days ago it was last Sunday so in order to keep the players fresh we have to rotate.

Not sure I follow your logic about making it difficult.

Same formation as against Man City. Left back out injured, replaced with another full back. King out injured replaced with James. Cambiasso old, replaced with Hammond.

Anyone watching Ulloa could see he was out on his feet, similar Nugent against Hull.

Posted

I'm going for

 

                            Hamer

 

Simpson    Wasilewski   Morgan   De Laet

 

                          Hammond

 

Mahrez     James   Drinkwater    Schlupp

 

                              Vardy

Posted

Surely if it was a back 5 then Moore would start? I'm expecting RDL right wing, Schlupp left back and Mahrez left wing in a 4-1-4-1. A lot could depend on how Hammond does.

Posted

Liverpool haven't even put Balotelli on the bench - injured? Pity, I was looking forward to him trying to beat Was. They look very mobile with Coutinho, Lallana and Sterling, defence will have to be at its best today.

Posted

Need the fullbacks to join in going forward and play the ball to Vardy on the deck. James, Mahrez and Schlup with big responsibilities to get up to Vardy and join in.

Tough ask but hopefully the changes will allow fresh legs to cause some problems.
