Will Salah run riot? Will Lukaku bite back?
Will @finsfan85 make a rare appearance?
Tune in at 4:30pm on Sunday to find out!
Edit: oh, it looks like @finsfan85 is banned, oh well.
Leave the table?
Sorry, I remember, different guy 😉
A rare game I will be supporting Liverpool and can be happy when they score. Hopefully Mane runs wild and scores a hat-trick, TAA scores a banger and Salah earns a soft penalty in the opening minute.
5-0 Liverpool please.
As long as Chelsea don't go a man down, then I'm confident in us winning. With Thiago and Elliott fit, we shouldn't have an issue of breaking down the Chelsea bus if they decide to park it.
We should have the advantage with the way Chelsea's attack has fallen off a cliff lately.
Assuming we’ll go:
Alisson
TAA Matip VVD robbo
Hendo fab Thiago
Salah mane Diaz
Agree with this.
Edit: except Kelleher will start.
I see Elliott being used in the 2nd half as a super sub to bring on additional pace and trickery to help counter or break Chelsea down. Though Elliott starting allows us to bring on Hendo for 30mins or so to control the midfield to avoid a late goal or upset.
You went down to 10 and parked the bus in one, and the other was a mish mash 11 from both teams.
This game should be very different.
I don't think it's going to be an easy victory for us but your attack lately has looked beyond pitiful. I think we are very much favorites if we consider recent form but I'm not expecting anything more than 1-0, 2-1, I don't see us going to pens.
I'm definitely marking this.
City fans make the same mistake last year.
Can't wait.
Lets agree .. Finals are won by defenders not attackers so Chelsea attack shouldnt be the thing that put you ahead
Expecting a tight game, but I think we'll pull it off. Our goal won't be pretty, but I'm going for a 1-0 Chelsea win.
I very much agree but our defenders shouldn't have much of an issue mopping up with Chelsea's recent attacking form. Regardless, Chelsea will most likely turn up during the final, that's why I'm not expecting an easy match.
What disrespect?
Cup games are our specialty, we know how to defend, and our attackers flourish against (counter) attacking sides. I would say it's 55-45 in Liverpool's favour
calling yourself favourites against the World champions while being trophy-less
We are the favourites, though?
You just said so yourself that we are slight favorites and I've mentioned a couple of times how it's not going to be an easy match.
You guys always act like Alonso is a huge liability but this man always finds a way to score or assist a goal it seems. Just play him as a striker and your curse will probably be lifted.
He's your best attacking option, so if any goal is scored, it's most likely a contribution from him.
