Swansea V Liverpool 22/01 20:00

Liverpool Football Club - Games

Monday night footy against the mighty Swansea.
Bottom of the table Swansea are desperate for points and under new leadership recently.

However we should beat these lot with our awesome attack. Mane, Firmino and Salah will be too much for them. Also we will have stability at the back with Van Dijk making his debut in the epl.

With our Rivals winning this weekend, less than three points here is a disaster.

Swansea are not as good as they were a few seasons ago and this should be a formality.

Team : . Karius
Gomez Matip VVD Robertson
Oxlade-Chamberlain wjnaldum Can
Salah firminho Mane

Prediction 0-3.(if I was betting on a scoreline)
Happy Dayz :)

Well tomorrow now has added incentive for us after the Spurs result. Must go out and make a statement, they're bottom for a reason.

It is a potential banana skin. We cannot discount the new manager syndrome that often affects a team...

Just looking at the table , they may be bottom but their recent form (last 5 games) has been better than the likes of Southampton, Stoke, Everton and even 8th placed Burnley !

It's a game we should be winning, but there's no room for complacency.

We need to be firing from the first whistle. If we play at a high tempo, we could win the game In the first half.

We should beat these comfortably, don't get me wrong I am absolutely certain that there are teams in the bottom half that have the potential to cause us trouble over the second half of the season especially if they get everyone behind the ball and sit deep (West Brom, Newcastle etc) but I don't think Swansea are one of those teams.
Defensively they just don't look organised enough or well drilled enough, I suppose having a lot of managers in a short space of time hasn't helped them on that score.
Anyway that's their problem, let's win this and make the most of Spurs slip up yesterday. This race for 4th is going to be tight so we can't afford to be looking gift horses like this in the mouth.

This has got to be 3 points in the bag.  :nod
Hopefully we won't see many changes now that Moreno and Hendo are fit again.

Its bottom of the table versus a team that is flying high so if we cannot be confident about that we may as well give up. win one nil or ten nil doesn't bother me as long as we take the 3 points.

Seeing how embarrassingly easy the 5-0 home game on Boxing day was, if we don't beat these tonight we need shooting.

Maybe they will surprise us and make a game of it.

I'm going for a 0-3 win to us.

Salah Hattrick. :p

Good side and nice choice of captain, Emre goes right back to the days of playing in a back 3 alongside Skrtel and Sakho.
