Liverpool v Leicester

[Whitechapel]

Xmas match day chat!

 

[Jackinky]

Should be a great game with lots of goals, I'm going for 2-2.

 

[JimJams]

Too hard to call because I've no idea who Klopp will field. Sakho and Toure could be the CB partnership for this, but to be honest it doesn't really matter which defensive lineup they use Vardy will fancy his chances of giving them a real 'mare.

 

[G-Dragon]

We have a chance if Vardy does not play.

 

[johnnytodd]

We showed anyone can beat Leicester, they showed they can beat anyone too albeit with 2 dodgy pens........i fancy a shock and Liverpool to win this one 3 - 1

Liverpool lucky again to play against a weakened Leciester team if Vardy misses game like they had v Man City.......typical

You lost though..

What he meant was anyone can score against Leicester.
I imagine the possession in this game will be something like 70/30 in Liverpools favour.
Not too sure Vardy will miss the game, but if his hamstring is giving him a problem I'd like to see Dyer start on the right and put Mahrez in an advanced position behind whoever we play up front.

 

[Art Morte]

Our CBs are a worry, Sakho didn't look too sharp against Watford and he and Skrtel are the only quality CBs we have. Mahrez might also have a field day against Moreno and Lucas, when he drifts inside. Could easily see two yellows to Lucas for fouls on Mahrez, lol.

Other than that, I'm sure we'll ask them questions in midfield and attack. Really crucial to get the three points after abysmal last three games.

..everyone knows Leicester defense isn't that good. You are just clueless smh.

 

[Whitechapel]

Liverpool 1-3 Leicester.

Hopefully Leicester keep our pressure seat warm a little longer.

 

[SALTIRE]

Liverpool 1-3 Leicester.

Unfortunately I agree unless Liverpool can actually step it up again but I've no confidence they'll do so.

 

[The Iron]

It's going to be a very entertaining game this one.

Liverpool 3-3 Leicester

 

[Stevencc]

Neither side can defend but Leicester's attack is better than Liverpool's at the moment so I'll plump for Vardy and the gang.

 

[Ablur]

Weirdly enough this will be the first game that suits us under Klopp at home since his arrival. The expectancy won't be as high as previous games given Leicester's performance this season and our last 3 games so the pressure won't be as big, and I can't see Leicester playing for a point.

We're long overdue a big win at home too so hopefully this can kick start it and get us going again.

I suppose we're lucky that all the teams from 3rd downwards are shit, but sooner or later if we keep failing to capitalise on their dropped points then we'll drift away from the pack and will have to start relying on other teams to do our job for us.

Crazy season. I'll go for a 1-1 draw.

 

[Kopper]

Watford and Newcastle have shown us how bad we are. Leicester will remove all doubt from those who believe otherwise.

Three straight league losses before today. The pressure will be bigger than ever.

Vardy is fit ffs!

[Art Morte]

I really don't know what Benteke has done to Klopp to be benched in favour of BOTH Firmino and Origi. Don't like that decision one bit.

The defensive side of things worries me, too, that Henderson, Can, Lallana, Coutinho midfield can be extraordinarily good or bad, we'll see. Plenty of creativity, just don't know who'll score the goals...

 

[G-Dragon]

I think you could see from couple of mins why Origi was chosen ahead of Benteke...

And what about Firmino, then? The guy needs to come off asap, don't care if it's Randall or Bogdan in his place, get him off.

 

[G-Dragon]

I think we have done well in the first half. Leicester haven't had a chance to counter attack.

 

[mistermagic]

Surprisingly, Origi has had a good game until he had to come injured.

Leicester don't look bothered.

 

[Art Morte]

"Well" is a compliment, "OK" is the truth. Haven't really tested Shmeichel, Leicester have been too comfortable to say we've done well. Unless you'd be happy with a 0-0. Plus we were damn lucky Atkinson didn't give a penalty for Leicester when Sakho took Okazaki out.

We drew with West Brom. Not trying to say it's a good result but still....

Benteke wasn't picked as he's not been good at all recently, and always seems to get called offside.

We've dominated this game so far but same old story. The opposition have come here to sit back and hope to hit us on the counter attack. Thankfully we've had enough men to deal with it but we still need some penetration.

It seems we need 7 chances created for 1 to go in, but the opposition need 2 for every 1 goal which is frustrating and needs to be addressed. If Sturridge was ever fit then we'd be around 4th/5th but meh.

Second half about to begin. Let's watch us dominated then get hit on the counter, then pile on the pressure and concede again.

Time for certain players to prove their worth at last (Firmino, Lallana, Benteke)

If Leicester have been comfortable what have we been? They have done nothing.

 

[G-Dragon]

Bentekeeeeeeeeee and firmino assist

 

[snortingfrogs]

Nice goal by Benteke and great pass by Firmino.

 

[Super_horns]

For once Leicester are losing...
