Essential The Official Football (Soccer) Thread - The Slotification of Liverpool is nearly complete

[null]

Yesterday someone said this ..

The moment of truth.

Villarreal are going to control the game - esp in midfield. DeGea will have to play and be on form.

We need Pogba and Bruno to show tonight.

I think Rashford is a better option than Greenwood because he works better with the outball when under pressure and can help to push VR back.

If 2 of the 4 idiots that spent all first half standing next to Villarreal's backline would drop off and MOVE AROUND, we might be onto something here
We lack street smarts more than anything

 

[BelieveBeOK]

We've been conceding cheap goals from set-pieces all season. It infuriates me that there are people paid to analyse our performances and work on things like this in training yet the problem still persists.


AND RASHORD. I'm so tired of him producing a stinker of a performance only to produce a goal or assist. His decision making 99% of the time is just awful. Always has to take one touch too many or take on one defender too many, shooting when he needs to pass. fukk THIS

 

[Sinnerman]

Here for the second half

Second half fc don't work in Europe. The last time we were losing at this stage; we got knocked out of the Champions League group stage at Leipzig.

Emery is gonna keep the shape and hit on the counter or from another set piece, we are done out here.

 

[TobiOT]

Been like this for the whole first half.

Can analyze & strategize it all day but Lindelof is just weak man. Training dummy of a defender.
Put your hardest forward on him and aim for him every time you're bound to get a goal

Bruno’s probably the worst #10 at one of the big teams. He’s offering nothing creatively and he’s not coming towards the ball and linking between the midfield and the forwards.

yeah strange that

 

[SCORCH]

AWB getting put on that summer jam screen

 

[Low End Derrick]

Yeah Rio and Hargreaves are right. No ones at fault for United, just a well worked goal from Villarreal.

 

[African_brehda]

I expect Villa to crowd the box and get in front of any shot. It's how these Spanish clubs frustrate opponents. Just have to stick to your game plan.

i need that Getafe vs Ajax shythousery

 

[TobiOT]

Rashford and McTominay been garbage, Bruno has been missing in action. Cavani, Greenwood and Pogba been the only ones trying.

We got nobody on the bench.

why are we trying to use him as a 10 .. why not as a SS?

maybe Ole lacks the tactical sophistication to adjust things.

IMO our best chance is to do a "moments-FC" + play percentage football. .. so bring on fred or matic. push pogba up. bring james on for rashford later to push them back.

rough them up. try to get free kicks, corners, el penalty ..

greenwood should have been on the bench.

 

[Trajan]

Ole being exposed here. They are way too organised in defence. We're gonna need a Penandes special here

Some of us tried to warn you but we were assured Arsenal were just ineffective going forward and Man U would beat the breaks off them
