Worried about this match, we're nowhere near ready to challenge the top clubs.

[Special Juan 27,424]

As well have we have been doing this game will be a s stretch too far and expect this to be fairly straight forward for Liverpool.

We have not had a win/performance there for a very long time

We are on our longest winless run against Liverpool since the 80s. Admittedly there are a lot of draws and narrow cup losses, but its still 9 games. 

Last time we won there was our last win altogether, the 1-0 Mount win. Hopeful of a heroic performance on Sunday. They have a habit of producing bad performances right after international breaks.

Last time we won there with fans was our title winning season in 2015....

Enzo cannot play. He simply cannot.

As long as we don't get hammered by 3 or more goals. 

Will be interesting to see how Maresca sets up for this one, draw wouldn't be a bad outcome at their home ground. 

[Special Juan 27,424]

It won't be a season defining result but it will, and should, tell us how far away we are from the likes of them. 

He won't drop Enzo, he's captain, he won't play Lavia as he will be worried it's too early so it will be Enzo and Caicedo

[Laylabelle 9,351]

Not expecting any points from this but hopefully we can give it a good go and not be a stupid scoreline.

Can already see him moving like molasses with Gravenberch running circles around him. 

[King Kante 1,476]

I can actually see us doing something in this game - if we can get a fast start. Dippers have been getting results but they haven't been playing great. If we start fast and get a early goal, I can see us winning and maybe even get a few. However, if we don't get one in the first 25-30 mins I can see the team getting ground down as the game goes on.

Liverpool can barely score 2-3 a game. We can’t stop scoring. Comments in here are weird. 
 

Don’t not-watch their games and check their results and go Oh No. They are not even close to the same capability as CFC right now, comparing the sides been against, and how hard / easy each side has found their goals pouring in. Let’s all get up to speed and stop underselling what should be expected. Obviously you expect us to not win based on psychological factors, an illness being bred at the club to see selves as weak and down constantly, annoying, obviously expect that to preclude a senselessly cautious approach. Anyone else would go expecting to put 2-3 past them, I get why people would expect this to be a draw or a loss by 1 goal, orders set us up to fail really, keep treating selves like growing kids. 
 

That however is no reflection of the quality at disposal. It’s only a reflection of amateur mentality top to bottom left to right at and around this club, which was held together by less than 10 individuals during our great era. We are fucked mentality wise. We win if players do their own thing through their own confidence as opposed to listen to the silly tales about mythical stature of Pool and fictional stature of CFC today. Is a very easy opponent right now. Will be up against selves though more than them. Wish people understood that broadly. Have the personnel, profiles, to steamroll them into oblivion.

I think he is injured, didn't even feature for Portugal on Tuesday in Scotland

[cosmicway 1,323]

Pool may of course win this but it won't be easy - it's a toss up just like the league cup final was.

But we are going there without Cucu and Fofana. That's the trouble.
