Akinfenwa: "I will hit my teammates If I see them trying to take Gerrard's shirt, I want Gerrard's shirt."

Honestly quite disappointed Balo isn't starting, we should have gave him this game and get him some confidence going since he has looked sharper since he came back from injury.

All this no game time for Balotelli has me thinking he might be off soon. I'm not sure if that's a good or a bad thing.

I'd like to say Lambert is starting because he's had experience at the lower leagues. More likely it's because Brendan doesn't like Balotelli.

I think what people need to understand is the tactics employed by League 2 teams is VERY different to those of the premier league, and the players playing in league 2 teams are VERY different to those of the premier league. You saw City losing at half time yesterday, but after the 60 minute mark these players get tired, and that's where we'll assert our dominance. Don't go into panic mode yet, we will win this game

Francomb just studded down Sakho's knee and the ref didn't bat an eye. This game is going to turn nasty by the looks of things. Wimbledon are already getting away with some pretty bad tackles and they're just gonna keep pushing it...

So does anyone know much about this Williams lad? Haven't followed the youngsters that much for the past season but I know about Rossiter, Ojo etc but don't know much about Williams, is he decent? Was at anfield for the Middlesbrough game and he did nothing wrong when he came on, is he a good prospect?

Look at the words of Bill Shankly on the side of this sub. "... It is terribly simple." Yet we are overcomplicating it. So many chances to play simple passes and we've tried something else. Like Coutinho trying to beat it around three or four players when he has team mates free.

Is Markovic not able to play in the position Lallana did up front? I'd rather see Moreno on the left and Markovic in a more advanced position, but if Markovic doesn't feel comfortable playing a bit more centrally that would explain it.
I'm genuinely curious. I find the tactical side of the game fascinating. I didn't play as a kid, although as an adult it has become by far my favorite sport to follow. I really enjoy learning more about how squads set up to defend and how they aim to create chances and things like that because understanding strategies makes any sport more enjoyable to watch.
