Liverpool v Leeds United Match Thread

[Clitheroe White]

Big drop off from DCL to Nmecha and with 3 defensive midfielders there is no outlet other than Aaronson running about.

Why not play Harry Gray if we're gonna sit so deep?

Would love to see what the lad could do! Free hit!

Decent half that given the lineup up. Takes a lot of concentration to maintain this though. Could be in for an interesting second half if Liverpool score first - we’d have to have a go at them then.

[Madron]

I want to see Willy running at Konate.
Aaronson to drop back and take off Gruev.
This is winnable and the way its going they are probably gonna score.

[Pullhard]

The highlights reel from that half will be hard to fill

[CHAPELALLMAN]

We actually have more game changers on the bench...

[Lufc76Cor]

With the changes Farke has made I think he should have rested Aaronson also, can't believe I'm going to say this but he's far too important for us for the scum game, as it it he's playing in an isolated position on the opposite side to where he's been playing well of late, everytime he receives the ball he has no options and no support..

But now that we've reached half time level this suddenly becomes a winnable game with the right changes, so far Justin has been very good and Bournauw done well, Struijk looks so cool on the ball

[White Riot]

I don't see why he's going to want to stick around if we're not even going to give him a chance.

That's it, Meslier, Harrison, Gruev and Piroe all need shipped out, but I'm not holding my breath.

[BlackHillsPaul]

HT....Our defense has looked mostly good. Not much has come down our right side with Bornauw and Justin. Which is encouraging! But we will need to make some subs in the last half hour if we are gong to get a goal. But overall this half has been positive.

Why do you want to change the game now?

Surely an away point at the home of the champions is a good point?

[Sean_Nile]

It's funny how the players on the bench are always better options to those on the pitch.

Every time, even when we are in front.

and also better managers that is a recurrent theme

[1964white]

Bornauw and Justin have done pretty well imo

They are James, Justin in particular.

Lots of decent performances, defensively.

[SG90]

See where we are at 60 mins, and then look to try and win it if possible. I just hope we don't gift them a goal playing out from the back.

If we had Meslier there we'd have another game changer

Don’t think we need change now. But we will need to freshen up the team.

Also, we are likely to need a goal. I can see Liverpool scoring in the first 10 mins back out.

[BlackHillsPaul]

You need to let that go, Paul. Haven’t you seen how supportive we are of young Brendan these days?

Most have been supportive lately. Which BA has earned. And yet he still took a lot of stick around here for a fine shot that beat the keeper but was saved off the line just a few days ago. Anyway, I digress. I take your point.

Are you going to feel comfortable after say 80 mins and with extra time to be added ?

I just think we need to offer something up front.

I don't think we've kept a clean sheet in away games so far this season ?

I think if we are still level on the hour DF will want to hold that rather than go for the win and leave us exposed at the back. One point will be a win tonight.

If we get to 80 mins and we are 0-0 Id happily ring the changes.
