Saints V Liverpool Build Up and Match Thread

OK, I’ll take it.

Scousers have been in good form and we couldn’t hit a cow’s arse.

Stranger things have happened.

I’ll go for a nervy 1-1 draw. Coutinho and VVD to score.

What do we reckon Sotonians?

3-0 to The Saints

Due to being on the sauce

Would rather that Lallana sat this one out. Too much of a hate figure. I’m fucking convinced that the 6-1 cup defeat only started going their way after the home crowd sang really cuntish things about Lallana (that I didn’t sing meself and won’t repeat here). Nivea Boy played like a fucking demon afterward.

Lallana has already been reported as not being fit to travel for this one

Its going to be like when I played in one of them Charity Matches at St Marys a few years back - both home and ‘away’ sides made up of ‘Saints’ - OK so maybe not 22 unfit fat 40 somethings wheezing and spulttering all completely fucked after 3 minutes, but you know what I mean

I’m not v.happy about this game tbh! Why is no-one doing anything? Seems to me that the authorities have basically organised a public rape, and now I’m hearing that the event is even being televised! How can that be right? Some of the players have got friends, family, young children etc. How will they feel, watching something like that?

You’ve got to be some kind of sick fuck to want to watch this IMO. I shall certainly be boycotting MOTD this week, I advise you all to do the same. If this sort of thing has to happen at all, it should certainly be behind “closed doors”.

Saints 8 - 0 Scousers.

First 15:00 KO on a Saturday for an age…we’re going to get hammered, seriously we are!!

2-4 :lou_sad:

Voted down for being such a pessimistic sod Bx3 :lou_wink:

Difficult game. Liverpool have been scoring loads but conceding quite a few as well. I like the sound of LITSL’s prediction, especially if we come back from 2 down again.

Why does his name keep reminding me of 60’s haircuts?

Think we could easily get roasted. Mane up against literally whoever we put at right-back is going to be 'effing terrifying.

Drop Clasie and put Hojbjerg in the midfield. Start with Boufal and let’s at least try to attack them. If we get our noses in front, sit back and can’t be counter-attacked we could manage to negate their pace. If we go a goal down and have to chase the game I think we’ll be exploited.

This will be the game when Mane launches his annual mid-season break, he’ll turn up with a small suitcase, a tourist guide to somewhere warm, and the first touch of a rapist.

Puel will have a tactical masterplan, it may be playing Yoshida on the right wing and Matt Targett as midfield hatchet man who will block Coutinho’s every shot - but despite that, I feel lucky.

We will create bugger all and score our only two attempts on target -

2-1 to Saints.

One slight tiny flaw in your plan sensei, Targett is still injured.

That’s the clever bit - they’ll never be expecting it!

I am not confident and I always am. I have had this lot for the title since August, there is something about them, they have a crazy good forward line and they are enjoying their football, as well as having a togetherness. We are out of sorts, but if we could get a point I would be happy, then onwards and upwards in Europe.

Saying this, they have a pretty poor defence and if we can get back to our best at the back, then we could nick it. My best mate up here is a Liverpool fan and he thinks they will need 2 if they are going to win it as they always conceed.

The other good thing is he really thinks we are going to beat them. I think it is the case of thinking the worse of your own team.

They are on fire and the best team to watch in the premier league though, by far!

A thought for the pessimistic…

If they score with their first attack we are properly fucked!

The bloke near me might beat his own record of leaving after 58 mins.

Haven’t got a fucking clue how to call this one. Reckon I’ll just pitch up on the day and see how it goes.
