Match Threads Liverpool Vs Tottenham: Match Thread

[JayB]

Eriksen is somewhat understandable because Lamela is injured and Lo Celso isn’t fit enough to start. Ndombele being dropped is annoying but he’s struggled for fitness. But I can’t for the life of me understand why he’s chosen Rose.

 

[13VanDerBale13]

Lamela has been pictured coming off the coach with the squad so he’s probably just not been risked

 

[mattyspurs]

I’m confused about the lineup, but what if we win? Is he a genius?

 

[anydange]

Can't wait for this. Fucking Christ.

 

[Mr Pink]

Poch clearly has no idea what his best lineup or even formation is. I find this very concerning. I am concerned.

Rotation seems to be the most important consideration for him.

Sanchez struggles more beside Toby as well.

Aurier Red card waiting to happen and Danny hasn't been way below par.

Gonna need the stars to align spectacularly.

 

[Dannyspur]

Whats the plan with our midfield? We know Alli will play further forward than Son and Kane, and Eriksen yet again will have to act like a defensive midfielder.

has he made a tackle this year?

 

[TwoSaintsComeMarching]

The worst part about the lineup is the Alderweireld - Sanchez partnership. No natural left sided CB. If Sanchez plays on the left we are fooked.

 

[Cavehillspur]

I actually had optimism coming into this game because I thought we'd see a continuation of this Poch 2.0 team. It's honestly the worst team he could've picked. Everyone who doesn't actually want to be here is playing, and it looks like another change in system.

Yeah feel exactly the same, so disappointed with that team, expectations lowered anyway, heres hoping they prove us wrong.

 

[DFF]

Doubt it. I suspect Eriksen spent all day and all night saying he’d pay the bill, then when dinner was over and the bill arrived, he refused to pay.

When the bill arrived he pulled out at the last second.

 

[Shadydan]

Sorry but Davies up against Salah and TAA no thanks, not really a viable alternative.

Sissoko will be playing the Wanyama Role
Winks doing the dembele role
Eriksen out wide right like he used to be
Dele in his classic dele role
Son on the left

I PRAY

 

[Hakkz]

Did the leavers bribe Poch with the dinner?

 

[Qualsonic]

Such a disappointing line up.
Haven't really wanted to criticise Poch up until now, but this is just baffling.

 

[bat-chain]

Gutted Lamela is not there.

Understand his desire to play a similar team to the final, it’s slightly mad but they are going to have “you'll never win that” sung at them”. Probably hoping their pride will kick in.

 

[Spurus]

Brace for impact...

 

[spursfan77]

I know it's twitter but the whole fanbase is panning that team selection and formation like we are on here.

If we win this then Poch really will have proved we've no clue. If not, then he's just going to prove what a lot of us suspect.

 

[Amo]

I’m confused about the lineup, but what if we win? Is he a genius?

No.

 

[markiespurs]

Good team performance on Tuesday night, so what does Poch do? revert back to picking 3 players that want off and revert to the formation that has failed us for the last 9 months... unbelievable Jeff

 

[philll]

Confidence has evaporated since the team news came out.

 

[TEESSIDE1]

Eriksen must have bought Poch two portions of Tiramisu at that dinner. Only reason I can think of ?

Or an after dinner foursome with Poch, Toby, Rose and Eriksen lol
