Guessing the ploy will be both Son and Moura up front allowing us to pack the midfield/defence in some configuration, and to embrace the break as our only likely means of scoring without control.
Huh? If you know the team, post itTanganga on the bench but no troy
any one calls them self a fan or supporter should follow there team through good or bad or go and forget football altogether
At least you’ll have a few pintsI’ll be shooting off now to the match, and to die a thousand deaths no doubt. As long as we go at them and don’t lay down I’ll be happy enough. If there’s any kind of positive result I’ll be ecstatic.

I hope you are right davidmatzdorf, but we can't discount the possibility that every goal Liverpool score could well be down to stupid and avoidable defensive errors on our part. It's not like it hasn't happened before in games very recently where all goals in some games we've played in have been down to basic errors on our part as opposed to well worked goals from the opposition.My aspirations for this game are that we play some energetic, skilful football and score a goal or two. If that suffices to get us a draw, great, it's a result.
What I don't want is for us to look clueless and sluggish, for us to get smothered and pressed to death, with the ball being repeatedly coughed up in midfield after less than 10 seconds of possession. We have pace and they play a high line. We should be able to nick a goal at some point, preferably not when we're already 2+ down, if we can retain possession and move the ball forward swiftly, either on the ground or in the air.
I also have the vain hope that people here will not reflexively blame every Liverpool goal on a Spurs defensive error. We are playing what is arguably the best team in the world right now. They score goals because they are good, not because opponents fuck up.
