I predict adebayor will get red card in second half and we will win 2-1 goals by suarez and kuyt.

Nothing much to say.Bad day to sum it up.Luckily for us we can turn this around quickly against brighton. I was impressed by the support of the away fans singing ynwa.This is the difference between us and 'others' when the team get beaten badly.

Looks like everyone has forgotten coates He did well yesterday coming into a ten men team and down on goals with no way back. I think he was the only positive from yesterday. This post has been edited by Rotuham: Sep 19 2011, 05:28 PM

QUOTE(Duke Red @ Sep 21 2011, 02:30 PM) I share the opinion that Suarez operates better as a lone striker. He likes it when the defender is close up against him so he can quickly turn away from him and burst away. For that, he needs space. Having someone with very little mobility like Carroll next to him, you get the feeling that a strike partner will only get in his way. I'd like to see Suarez lead the line with a 2nd wave of support from the likes of Kuyt, Downing, etc. Suarez can get behind defenders with his pace, guile and quick turns but he needs support to play ball back across goal to. Dont want lone striker bro.Leads to over reliance on him.We need two to help share the burden.Unless you have a world class midfield and wing like spain then you can play lone striker.Ours currently is nowhere near there.If you see the man city match last season suarez and carroll linked up well and that was our best attacking performance. To justify why i think we cant play lone formation is we dont have possession 60% or more.Spain,barca are like this and most of the time they are in opponents half so the striker doesnt get isolated.We on many occasions have to counter attack so once the striker needs someone close.After alonso left torres was very isolated as lucas and mascherano cant feed the ball.I doubt there are many teams that win trophies primarily with lone striker formation apart from barca,spain of course.Please correct me if i am wrong.Even our successful sides were built on keegan toshack,rush dalglish partnerships.

QUOTE(vreis @ Sep 21 2011, 03:53 PM) Think the days of 2 strikers are numbered. Nowadays teams played with lone striker supported by AM/wings/auxiliary forwards etc. Fluidity is the word of the day now where most of the forward line can interchange position. Some can even play without out & out strikers with success. Eg include the manc, rent boys, inter/ac, even RM & Bayern. The problem is the current team is not fluid at all, not when your most creative player is Adam who lack mobility. When the engine room consist of Adam/Lucas, both tend to play from deep without much pace, you'll need more pacy wide players to stretch play. Unfortunately we only have Downing to a lesser extend Bellamy or Suarez. I'd like to see how KD fit in Stevie when he's back. Currently, the team is limited when Carroll is playing due to his inability to play at quicker pace or interchange position. I'd like to see a MF of Adam-Lucas-Gerrard supporting a frontline of Downing/Bellamy-Suarez-Kuyt. The team can morph into 4-3-3 or even 4-1-2-3 when attacking & revert to 4-5-1 when defending. Not to mentioned most of them can interchange position at will. Theoretically its exciting but whether it can be moulded into the team play remain to be seen. Oh well, one can only dream United play with rooney partnering with either welbeck,berbatov or hernandez.Chelsea play with two or three with anelka,torres,sturridge,kalou and drogba. They do have a target man but that target man is not the lone striker.Carroll is our target man.

QUOTE(digilife @ Sep 22 2011, 09:01 AM) one minute he played striking partner, the minute a defensive midfield to force a corner for Brighton and the next minute a sweeper to pass the ball for Bellmay,Maxi and Kyut 123 to SCORE damn it! why Carra is like Djimi Traore now, giving away cheap penalty  I think kenny needs to reconsider carra's selection.We need him for the big games but becomes somewhat a liability when playing lesser teams due to his hoofing antics.But now with agger out i dont think kenny will have much choices. I am very relieved that we have kelly back though.

Just got a question for you guys.Who do you think will be first choice RB when both kelly and johnson are fit at the same time? Hypothetical as this scenario never happened once we got enrique.

QUOTE(hyperyouth_firepower @ Sep 23 2011, 07:26 PM) Hmm.. Looking at LFC's FaceBook channel, they really are targeting the Malaysian Redsmen. Feels good to be a part of a supporter that's recognized by the club.  Yes.Only we can boast of this I guess they were blown away by bukit jalil reception.Even the website says they were taken by suprise after the tour. We are one family despite our lack of success in recent times.YNWA

QUOTE(weichieh007 @ Sep 24 2011, 01:58 PM) I know that a lot of us will be expecting to beat Wolves tonight especially at home. But let's not forget our lesson from last season where we lost 1-0 at anfield. Wolves, like Stoke, is a difficult opposition to break down in defense while using their pacey counter attack. We should not underestimate this kind of team if we wanna beat them. Hopefully we'll play the way we play against Bolton. I have to admit i am impressed by your realism.Many other fans are talking about 5-0 6-0 victory.For me 1-0 or 2-0 is good enough as three points is most important.

Carroll did really well la.Played good balls and kept possession and distributed it well. Thats a big step for me compared to last time where he lost the ball easily and always frustrated.today he was calm. The only i didnt like was he wasted the chance right at the end. Gerrard coming back to his best, taking long shots

Lose argue,draw also argue win also argue Lets just be happy with the three points.I agree henderson didnt contribute much but at 20years old not everyone is a world beater like messi.

I think our defeat at stoke could now be excused as i said we would have to wait till the top teams have played there.
I doubt there will be any top team that comes away from there with three points easily.
Credit to stoke though they played really well even in the last minutes when usually united are pilling on the pressure on the opponents like crazy.

Please stop bashing carroll guys.He is already showing big improvement.Maybe it's because he changed his boots The anonymous person who didnt do much yesterday was henderson.I really dunno what is his best position and he looks more comfortable in the center.

I think gerrard will come on after 60minutes against the bitters.Very risky game to start.
Agree with duke kuyt should start ahead of henderson.We cant afford any passengers in the game.
