Liverpool Vs Chelsea (PL) Tue 31/01 2017 KO 20:00 GMT

I think Liverpool have punched themselves out already, Spurs done it last year too.

Playing an ultra hard pressing game is good but its impossible to keep it up over the course of season.

Theres also no other ground in England that I want a win from more than Anfield, my hatred of Liverpool runs deep and its mostly down to their deluisonal fans.

We have to at the very least win on eof the Pool or Arsenal games, if we win both, the title is over and hopefully Conte will have learned from the trip the Spurs that the way around the press is to go direct to an out ball and have players breaking off him.

I'm confident anyway, Liverpools defence is beyond brutal so we should have some joy against them.

 
Would love to put the dippers out the top 4 especially after all the sh*t their fans have been talking, city and Utd are 2 and 3 points behind them, beat them at w**kfield and there is a good chance that will happen and shatter their confidence for the rest of the season, klopp is good but looks like he would lose his cool if it started to fall apart...I'm usually not vindictive but them and spuds...the fans need knocked down to size 

 
The bin dippers are obviously concentrating on the league as theyve   just been knocked out of the Cup by Wolves, the greatest fans in the world were a bit quiet too

Klopp learning the bottle mentality of modern Liverpool, however they will play us like it's the World Cup final on Tuesday 

 
Big game for us, Liverpool are struggling at their last game, also missing Mane, but it doesn't mean we've already won the game, we will have to fight 90 minutes and get those 3 points.

Our form is good, confidence on a high level, we have to win this and I believe we will!

I'd like to see this starting lineup:

-------------------------- Courtois ----------------------

-------- Azpilicueta --- David Luiz --- Cahill --------

Moses ----------- Kante ------- Fabregas ------- Marcos Alonso

-------------- Pedro ------------------ Hazard ----------------

---------------------- Diego Costa --------------------------

If Conte will go with 2 DM's, then I'd prefer Chalobah, he would offer us more than Matic in my opinion. 

COME ON CHELS!!!!!!!!!!!

What the hell does he mean by saying 'not possible to go lower' ? Next game is the visit of the champion elect who's pretty much on form.. 4 straight home defeats is very much on the card...  Another defeat for his side at anfield would be the new record and at the same time put them, if not already, out of title race which mean zero chance of any trophy.. How is that not considered any lower??

Well I took it that he means there is no chance of us beating them on Tuesday and that, in his opinion, he is very confident of winning the game. 

 
I used to like Klopp, but he's gotten a bit too arrogant to us after that game in September.

Someone should show him that one big victory doesn't make him a conqueror. Can't wait to crack his fake optimism!  :Connie_threaten:

 
We could leave Liverpool's entire season in the toilet with a victory.  I hope we don't stand off but force them on the back foot...we know they will up their game but I think we can sneak a win....just can't afford to drop all 3 points here especially with the Arsenal game on the weekend.....win both and that just about kills off any title hopes for anyone else.

 
All we have to do is what Swansea, Southampton, Plymouth and Wolves all did, which was let them mess around with the ball in their own half as much as they want, but close them down quickly when they get into ours and look to counter attack quickly. If we go at them, they run the risk of countering on us.

 
Liverpool will be an entirely different beast on Tuesday. Klopp has pretty much sacrificed two cups in order to concentrate on the league and that will be apparent in their performance. I think Conte will be secretly happy with a point. We need to dominate the centre of the park and push them wide where they seem very ordinary.

 
Their recent results mean nothing- they will give absolutely 100% to win this game on Tuesday. They are absolute dogsh*te, but they're game raisers and somehow they always seem to pull off a decent  result against the top sides. 

Under Conte we have seen our defence constantly trying to play the ball out from the back, therefore I think it's likely Sturridge will be dropped and Firminio will play up top because of how relentless he is in his pressing. Sturridge simply doesn't give them that. However, they have very little creativity in midfield with a midfield three of Wijnaldum, Can and Henderson likely to start. They'll have a great deal of useless possession in midfield, but barring defensive errors from Chelsea, they shouldn't create too much.

We all know about their defence and it hasn't fared any better since Klopp arrived. Matip has been hailed as the best of the defenders but we saw on two occasions how Redmond went past him very easily in the semi final. If Hazard performs, Matip and Alexander Arnold (not sure if Clyne is back) could find him very difficult to handle.

The way I see it is, if we turn up, we win- simple. The only thing that stops us from winning this game is our own stupid mistakes or not taking our chances. We have to be clinical because even though they are playing sh*t, attacking players such as Firmino, Lallana etc can always provide quality moments and the crowd will be right behind them.

Liverpool fans on 606 tonight not happy with him. A few already questioning whether he is the right man for the job. 

I have always felt he is a bit smoke and mirrors. A good sound bite merchant but hasn't got the track record anywhere near that of a Mourinho or Ancelotti. A hair transplant and snazzy designer glasses will only take you so far. A shiny shell-suit and white trainers would complete the look.

Why ? Does that mean our recent run means nothing as well ? Momentum is everything in this league.
Agree to some extent but players do raise their game for matches with so much rivalry. If we turn up and play anywhere near our best we should be too good for them but I don't think we are near our best just now. I think we have been getting results whilst below par (always a good thing) and we will need to be more fluid on Tuesday night.
