I **** hate Burnley. About time they dropped  although Everton going down would be very funny. 

Still, it would be disappointing not to get points from these lot. We play them twice in a couple of weeks, less than 4 points would be poor.

This has a thuggish 2-0 to them written all over it. 

Just hope we return the favour in the return game.

They'd better not double us again like last season! grrrrrrr. :<

Would probably bring in nakamba for this one. Probably asking a bit too much of Tim in away game against a team full of confidence fighting for survival.

Two potential lineups i'd go with

 

                                 Martinez

Cash           Chambers         Mings         Digne

                               Nakamba

                Luiz                               Ramsey

                                   Buendia

                    Watkins                    Ings

 

Or

 

                                 Martinez

Cash           Chambers         Mings          Digne

                                 Nakamba

                       Luiz                      Ramsey

                Buendia                            Coutinho

                                        Ings

 

Ings has played his best football for us when he has been able to link up with buendia.

Safe to say gerrard won't pick either of these lineups though

Will be tough as they are flying. However they are also sh*te (there’s a reason they’re down there) so we should be looking at taking at least 4 points from them across the two games.

Oh you're right, I just saw that it was 0-0 at VP, my memory played tricks on me! :s 

I think we were winning at their place before it ended up 3-2, I remember feeling really annoyed at full-time in that one, so no repeat of that pleeease Villa!

This will be a good test of Stevie’s man management skills.

Can’t see it being  game to suit Coutinho so he can start Buendia who has shown good form recently and save Coutinho for the Liverpool game.
