The Voice - Match preview Bradford City vs Walsall Saturday 3 September @ 3:00pm

Ironic you mention Klopp, Captain, because Liverpool beat Newcastle in 90+8 despite only 5 minutes being added

 

It should be a booking in the first instance when the goalkeeper wastes time for a goal kick.second yellow when they do it again. If you actually enforce a punishment then they won’t do it, but the pathetic referees just obviously wait for the keeper to take as long as they want like absolute clowns

 

Just using Klopp as an example of one of the main moaners. Could have said Guardiola, Mourhino there all the same when it comes to moaning for the full time whistle.

 

Definitely, totally agreed!

Klopp couldn't have looked happier when it all worked out in his favour though, but hypocrisy and football go hand in hand in the heat of the moment!

 

Normally yes Dave, but he’s done full preseason, match fit and knows MH’s system…..In the middle of the three perhaps or wide left? ( But then who goes at 10?)

 

There is going to be some good players on the bench today

 

Lewis; Foulds, Critchlow, Platt, Hendrie; Chapman, Smallwood, Sutton, Pereira; Harratt, Cook would be how I line up (4-4-2).

missed the sheff weds game though so sure It wont be that, nor will it be 4-4-2.

Dion probably starts on bench……

 

Halliday for Hendrie, East for Sutton would be my team.

Morning Kevin.

I'd tend to agree on fitness but whilst DP has knowledge of MH previous system, this is a very different team to that of last season and I feel, a week of training and minutes today, will see a full debut next Saturday.

Mind, hope you are correct!!

 

Angol over Young?

 

Just a feeling Hughes will stay with Angol even after Youngs display on Tuesday night maybe a little controversial we'll see.

 

My team predictions are similar to my result predictions, not bothered who Hughes selects as long as we get all 3 points and a clean sheet preferably.

 

You may well be right..a difficult call. An exciting player I grew to enjoy . Happy he’s back.

 

Think it will 4-4-2
Lewis
Halliday. Plattt. Crithlow. Ride

banks. East. Smallwood. Chapman

Oliver. Cook
can see this as they play the diamond formation Oliver up front they have big defenders

 

The real question is, is it mild enough to wear shorts today ?

 

Yes but with a raincoat...!!

 

9% chance of rain I’m going to take the gamble and not take a coat !

 

I think it might depend on whether Dion starts or not. Him and Angol played very well together the back end of last season, and Hughes might want to try and re-establish that partnership. If Dion starts on the bench, I think Angol might as well.
