Chez Posted 27 November, 2021 Share Posted 27 November, 2021 if a keeper throws it from one end to the other and it goes straight in, does that count? I am guessing not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure how old you are but there's a classic example in a Birmingham derby when a player threw the ball back to Peter Enckleman in goal, he went to control it, but messed up and it took a slight touch off his foot and went in. If he'd have completely missed it the goal wouldn't have counted. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No it doesn't count. Not wanting to tempt fate here but a keeper can throw it into his own net. Seems a strange rule really as there's no chance on earth a keeper would be able to throw one in the opposing goal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Stuey is fit I would bring him on later or if we are chasing the game, the same with Redders and Broja. If we score an early goal it will be 11 at the back with Liverpool peppering the goal.

JustinSFC Posted 27 November, 2021 Share Posted 27 November, 2021 (edited) 3-0 defeat or less would be a result. They're absolute monsters at the moment. We're not getting anything out of this game today. Not even a whiff of a point. Edit to say: I doff my cap to anyone who has traveled up there today.

LiberalCommunist Posted 27 November, 2021 Share Posted 27 November, 2021 Three games in seven days. Need to come through this unscathed, and ready to dust ourselves down, and be super prepared for two big home games. I reckon we'll get four pts from these.

You can’t score a goal with your hands. Until 2019 a goalkeeper could throw the ball into the opposition net and score but no longer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

suewhistle Posted 27 November, 2021 Share Posted 27 November, 2021 No KWP, but he's a versatile sub to bring on if we are under the cosh. I wonder if Armstrong will play slightly more withdrawn and make those space making runs into space?.. It will be interesting to see how they set up.

SNSUN Posted 27 November, 2021 Share Posted 27 November, 2021 Liking the formation change, 5 at the back defending, 3 in possession. I know it hasn't worked before early on in Ralph's tenure but we have better personnel for it now. Also dropping our ineffective number 10s gets a tick from me. 3 eager strikers and Adams and Armstrong can play deeper to Broja. Good luck to Lyanco too. Liverpool will still maul us but at least Ralph had tried IMO. 3 nil Dippers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saint NL Posted 27 November, 2021 Share Posted 27 November, 2021 While I'm not confident for the game, I do like that team and formation. Let's hope it doesn't backfire and we get humped today because it'll mean the formation won't be used again. Play for the cleansheet and hope Adams can hit another worldly.

Agreed. We'll be more direct I think, balls into the channels for the 3 up top, also expect to see them coming deep to almost play as 10's and play on the turn. Really interesting line up.
