I read Liverpool FC forum for this matchup this morning. Some LIVERPOOL IS THE GREATEST posting. Some members had some valid criticisms of our team and theirs. It was a decent read.

Rice is not just English, he is a Chelsea Academy product. I think every club with an academy should want their own, especially when they have proven at a young age they can play in the league. I wonder how much contact Lampard had with Academy kids when he was playing?

Is this still possible?

Another reason that Mendy is well liked. “The ideal is to come to a final decision quickly, one way or another, but there is no problem with Edouard, he’s a top guy, he poses no problems, in fact the opposite.” “This morning again in training he was a driving force, he communicates with everyone, he talks a lot, he is still the leader in the changing room. IDK what will happen, if it happens, well much the better for him, but his behavior here is fantastic.” -Julien Stéphan; source: wiw sport via @OllieGlanvill

It does seem like we get more than the average amount of soft tissue injuries. I hope Pulisic gets a body that can handle the grind of being a professional athlete. It takes more than talent to play at the highest level and stay there.

I just read that West Ham put a 73M pound valuation on him. I don't know how accurate that is? It is an article in The Express article with no direct quote.

Looks like we might need a prayer vigil for Kepa in this match. Our team Which art eleven Hallowed be thy game Our match be won Their score be none On turf as we score at least seven Give us today no daily red … card And forgive us our lost passes As we forgive those Who lose passes against us Lead us not into retaliation And deliver us from penalties For three is the kick off The power and scorer For ever and ever Full time

It is obvious Mou is looking for quick fixes and does not care long term.

Red Cafe is a fun read right now. The Chilwell deal is looking better all the time.

If that is the worst they can find, it is all good.

Some Mendy lowlights. Might want to turn off the volume if at work.

Somebody should start a Mendy thread.

I wonder if it is size?

IIRC they said Brighton had 4 on INT and we had 13. Brighton also seemed to have more players gassed at the end.

I dont understand RLC ahead of him, but I can see Mount because Mount will pull the trigger on a shot on goal. CHO has not been as aggressive with taking the shot. There must be something going on at training for CHO to be so far down the list.

Mendy is not playing today.

It would be so awesome to win this. I hope Puli is ready, he has played so well against Liverpool.

Get you some CHO. Make Frank see you.

I hope Mendy looks great in training this week.

Thank you James!!

FFS get RLC off the pitch

RLC is craptastic so far.
