Spurs are +275 (for entertainment purposes only, of course). I don't get it. Because Suarez is back? We won 2-0 there last year, I don't see any reason why it can't be the same. Saha + Bale goals. 2-0. Discuss.
I have a black lab named Edgar Dogvids. Luis Suarez hates him. Therefore, I am Suarezist. Seriously, how can you hate him?
Normally after we've smashed a team, like we did to them 4-0 at the Lane, the return fixture is far harder. Whether it's complacency from our players or hurt pride on their side. Given the results around us and being away from home, a draw is ok. 3 points is great and really keeps us in there as title challengers. Defeat isn't a disaster but would leave us spending the rest of the season looking down rather than up.
I enjoyed this from a Liverpool fan I know: "boys are in form, gonna be a battle. Game early in the season was decided by the refs..." Apparently a 3-0 over Wolves and a WLDLW in the league means "in form." Not to mention that the game earlier in the season was decided well before the red cards. They didn't belong on the same pitch, that was some of the best stuff I've seen this season. Delusional.
Actually they're unbeaten at home (so far) and raised their game against the stronger teams, but drawn a lot against weaker teams.
It's amazing how many of their fans have been in denial about that game. Must have been such a shock for them to get destroyed like that given how arrogant they were going into it.
yah but lotta draws for em at home. its largely the difference between them and spurs points-wise. spurs have been takin care of biz at home but you are right - liverpool has played well against the top of the table, & played poorly vs the bottoms
Going to be very tough, Liverpool are pretty good at home and haven't lost there this season. A draw would be great result.
I'm going with the law of averages: we've beaten them last 3 league games so will not win this time. Draw is fine to keep them at bay, though.
Big, big misses. Probably Saha in for Lennon, with VdV out right. Alternatively, Sandro out right to keep things nice and tidy. Daws in for Kaboul is a no-brainer, but it leaves us a little slow in the center of defense. Hopefully Waler and Benny are on top of their game. COYS P.S.: EK, please get Edgar Dogvids a Spurs shirt. And some sunglasses.
Think we should try and induce a few red cards by going with: Gomes, BAE, King, Kaboul, Walker, Rose, Sandro, Livermore, Lennon, Defoe, Adebayor
He wasn't having any of the sunglasses, I tried though! And yes, that is a Davids jersey he is sporting. He's ready.
