Have we evet not been top of the premiership injury list. Always 6 or 7 first teamers out. It cant just be coincidence.

Its important we dont make same mistake we did v dortmund. If its 1-1 after 75 mins make sure we dont lose the game. Liverpool have the players to punish us if we commit too many players forward.
I think we'd change back to a 433 if we had Coutinho. But then I wouldn't have said we'd go 3-5-2 without him, so who knows.Originally Posted by BOBN
Coutinho will be on the bench. Rodgers knows damn well not to effectively play 5-2-3 against this Arsenal midfield. You'd get fondled, bummed then jizzed on
As anyone knows the strength of the 352 or 523..... is the wing backs and the entire system is made or broken with the effectiveness of them. I think it's Cisshoko and Johnson playing there who are both good players but the role is very demanding. Very possible to get caught well out of position.
When Liverpool are defending it may be tempting to go through the middle which may well suit us and when Liverpool are attacking it may be logical to hit them on the counter up the flanks where they could be exposed.
Rogers will be willing to change formation mid game if he feels we are getting too much joy though.
We should be looking to really punish any indecision/hesitation on their part at the back about when to come and go or when to push up and drop back.
You will have no problem finding space in behind, should we play that way and most markedly if you quickly win back possession in our half.
I have read that we should do exactly the same though. target your full backs, especially down your right where the majority of your flank play goes down and something we have tried in the past with Suarez pulling wide when we defend.
We're both going to react the same if the middle becomes congested; send the full backs forward which in turn opens the gaps in behind which means we're both going to guard against the counter. It will be interesting in the middle though, seeing whether Lucas breaks up your play better than Arteta would do [I think he would], the trade off between the two Kenyans in Ramsey and Henderson... and then of course the two the two undoubtedly-world-class players we have in Suarez and Ozil.
It is acceptable on this board to sing f*** off mourinho
Fuck, shit, cunt, you can say almost anything here.
Not the N word, though.
NOTE: The location of this post has been moved and the thread title (which was previously Wenger is Leaving) has been manipulated by a notorious pro-Wenger moderator. What was previously a message that contained no profanity and made a comment on a real life event has now been manipulated by a deliberately provocative title. An old and crude propaganda and censorship technique.
Want a win but just don't lose it.
Any sort of win would be great going into the next few games.
Even though they'll all be shattered with having to play so many games due to half the squad being in hospital, the momentum and adrenalin should get them through.
Injuries may be the number one problem at the club, but confidence can be the number one component in getting results.
Yes, I have copyrighted the insightful sentence above.
