Dugout Discussion – Liverpool vs West Ham United

11 December 2016 3338 comments

Paul

The final match of Gameweek 15 sees Liverpool welcome West Ham United to Anfield in the 4.30pm kick-off.

Both Sadio Mane and Roberto Firmino are highly fancied against a Hammers defence that shipped five at home to Arsenal last weekend.

Mane has served up points in five of his six home outings, whilst Firmino will be looking to banish a three-match barren run and return to the form that has already seen him register 15 points in front of his own supporters on two occasions.

Divock Origi looks to score for the fourth successive match in all competitions to strengthen his claim as a mid-price festive frontman.

West Ham, meanwhile, have home encounters with Burnley and Hull followed by a trip to Swansea in the upcoming three Gameweeks.

We’ll be looking for signs of form from Dimitri Payet and the fit-again Michail Antonio, then, while big Andy Carroll is named amongst the subs against his former club, having emerged from the bench to net the Hammers’ consolation against Arsenal last time out.

Is Origi really better than Iheanacho next week considering fixtures?

Can't keep ignoring Costa anymore.. Best way to get him in?

Sanchez - Hazard - Firmino - Siggy - de Roon
Kane - Defoe - Iheanacho
1 ft, 2.4 itb

Iheanacho and Firmino -> Costa and (6.9 mid)
Defoe and Firmino -> Costa and (7.6 mid)

  I have the same forwards as you and have been thinking the same, but I have Mane over Firm, the only person I want to drop is Nacho, would have to raise money by selling Haz, I don't think it's worth -4.

Hate to be a pessimist but can't see us winning the league. If we struggle to break down teams who stack defense then there'll be plenty more draws and a few losses to come, can't hinge on going ahead first every game

  2, he can play wide also. The way he spoke before the Leicester game suggested Pep had told him to step up for the next 4. Arsenal would be a good place to play his false 9 though.
