The performance and result of this match will be the benchmark for the whole season in my opinion. A win means we can have genuine hope of being competitive this season. A draw will mean we are still a mid-table club, and a loss will mean we are "clown-shoes".
Time for the team to step up for the manager and for the fans.
no I disagree I think a win will be an indication of home form this season. if we stuff leicester we could potentially make anfield a fortress this season as it sets good morale. if they stuff us it's because our match/team performance wasn't good enough, probably because we didn't do the basics right such as defend set pieces or give away a very preventable goal (of which we were guilty of giving away many last season at anfield).
it's quite a prediction you make based on one match it may be true it may be not but it justifies further why we have a 'panic fever' thread
