Hybrid Angel 2,130 Posted September 14, 2016 Share Posted September 14, 2016 First big test for us and for Antonio. I'm hoping to see a Conte masterclass here. Their defense is shite and their biggest weakness and we should be looking to exploit that especially given that we're playing at home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueLyon 9,359 Posted September 14, 2016 Share Posted September 14, 2016 I hope we will be more accurate than vs Swansea. We do that and we have great chance to win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The first line up without any doubt.I thing we should let Liverpool play,let them press us and play on counter attacks there defence is already awful so in counter attacks we could exploit that.Would love Fabregas to play but he under pressure is just awful but he would be a massive help in starting those counter attacks.

zekinjo 449 Posted September 14, 2016 Share Posted September 14, 2016 Antonio is a very likable person, unbelievable coach obviously but just can't understand why he treat Fabregas like some average player?! Does he know that we were losing points badly in 3/4 matches before Fabregas in? I would say that if we didn't had him as a player 10- th place would be ours right now. He literally saved Conte's ass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueStorm1003 539 Posted September 14, 2016 Share Posted September 14, 2016 I think we'll see plenty of goals in this one. None of the 2 defences seem to be very stable at the moment. Even though I think Cesc deserves a start, it can't be against the scousers. Oscar will do better IMO. I doubt we'll see many changes aside from JT, but I don't like the idea of Brana at RB for this one. Maybe give Alonso-Azpi as FBs a chance? Would like to see Moses instead of Willian. More attacking player for me, and we'll need that against them. I fancy a 3-2 win Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Special Juan 28,141 Posted September 15, 2016 Share Posted September 15, 2016 People have short memories and whilst Liverpool turned over Leicester with ease they got quite easily beaten by Burnley a few weeks ago. If we continue our good football and intensity we will win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounded like Fabregas might start also ? training very well according to Conte , Alonso will play either here or Leicester game . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akgw13 867 Posted September 15, 2016 Share Posted September 15, 2016 normal back 4 with luiz replacing terry. I really hope conte is talking up fabregas to keep him motivated if we do switch to 3 at the back. I hoped he would take up the pirlo role, fingers crossed for that!. Alonso will start against leicester it feels, throwing him in against liverpool could be a rough start for him. Normal XI for me with Luiz stepping in for Terry. I hope if we get a goal early we can finally kill the game or at least give us some distance from another flook goal. Will see the best of hazard in this game I think, will torment their D all night.

He obviously meant it as a compliment, and not as a slight.These people are required to produce an output of several million words a season in press conferences, interviews, program notes, in-house TV, radio, goodness knows what else. If they sometimes make a misstep, who can really blame them? In any case, Antonio clearly took it in the spirit it was meant and tried to come up with a reciprocal complement of his own. Fair enough I thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jernej93 569 Posted September 15, 2016 Share Posted September 15, 2016 They can be easily exploited on counter attacks ... we need to sit back and be patient. They can't break deep defensive formations, just don't give them much space in attacking third and they will attack without head Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
