rock bus 850 Posted April 20, 2014 Not sure I agree either.. Guess maybe just added grit from Johnson?Johnson been in press this week so guess he knew he was playing, did like his comment about getting in Liverpool players faces and messing things up a bit, which I agree with. Somehow we have to disturb their smooth football style Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I just hope Johnson has his passing boots on, or we will have to keep repeating the disturbance for the full 90 minutes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Chunky Norwich 0 Posted April 20, 2014 Personally I''m surprised Whittaker has kept his place. Also thought Hoolahan provided quite a lot when he came on against Fulham Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Citizen Journalist Foghorn 0 Posted April 20, 2014 Interesting semi-colons give away the formation.....Looks like we are playing 4-1-2-1-2.So Johnson in the vital role spreading play in front of the defense :S I guess another ton of passes at some appalling success ratio again today.Snodgrass behind a front 2 of Redmond and Hooper.Well, I hope it works, but don''t see it.

Carra Rud 17 Posted April 20, 2014 Not liking this line up but we''ll soon find out - first 10 minutes will be key. Strangle play and we could go for a goal less draw but I can''t see City keeping out the ''pool for 90 mins. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Katie Borkins 1 Posted April 20, 2014 That is not a team for a goalless draw. Looks like we''re going for the win.Should be interesting. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

iron_stan 0 Posted April 20, 2014 yet again are playing our quickest brightest right footed talent on the left hand side and up against the England right backPLAY HIM ON THE RIGHT HAND SIDE UP AGAINST FLANAGHAN FFS!absolutely mindless Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Carra Rud 17 Posted April 20, 2014 You could get an HGV to do a 3 point turn in all the space we are giving them... amateur hour as usual. Liverpool totally in charge and will just step up a gear now and gain and pick us off... no chance today - pipe dream if anyone thought otherwise. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Citizen Journalist Foghorn 0 Posted April 20, 2014 Terrible formation, which has now changed, terrible team selection. Both our Right backs, Martin and Whittaker struggle at this level and we play them both.Martin is not very good at central defense... Backup at best. Can we clear that up once and for all???

If we must play him we need to swap the wingers a lot more often to change things up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
