all joking aside these yellows could get relevant if we progress

How many of our players are on yellows cara one more and he misses a game

HE IS UNREAL

lot of inexperience out there mentality is one of hanging on they score and its a different game

ffs we should be able to kill this game off extra man just pass it around

ffs we should be able to kill this game off extra man just post it around

mascherano is immense babel good outlet inter player off wow

silly tackle

Why can we not keep the ball and pass it look like a pin ball machine out there keep possession and a bit of composure is needed if they score before we do we could be in for some trouble

graham hunter on newstalk this morning said that it may lead to resentment. alonso wanted to leave it to today to fly out and rafa said no you are in or you are out. not sure why it wasn't kept behind closed doors though roy evans on talksport said that modern men wanted to attend births and in his day you went to work and missus went to hospital but that alonso's decision should be respected and there should be no long term repercussions if it was champions league final would alonso play or opt out difficult one - in some ways i would expect him to miss a league game but champions league second leg against inter you would expect him to travel

gerrard supporting/running off crouch should work need to win tonight have a feeling inter game next tuesday will be a distraction at the weekend

important to get 3 points in this one and put pressure on everton to keep winning wonder if rafa will have an eye to inter for the newcastle game - maybe rest one or two defensive players like masch, hyypia i like our new formation - seems to get the best from gerrard - really capitalises on his shooting ability - puts him in positions where he is dangerous

great keeper and save from davies was amazing not sure if its criticism of him or our defence or defence set up though but we defend too deep on set pieces diouf free kick yesterday was poorly defended yesterday also according to match of the day we have conceded 13 out of 20 goals conceded (numbers approx as can't remember) from set pieces. shows how strong we are in general play generally i think we are a bit weak/vulnerable on set pieces and not very threatening on our own which is probably something that can be improved on training ground

Phil Thompson was on Newstalk (Irish station) discussing this He has lent his name and pledged his 5k to this. Listening to him you have to say that Jesus he loves Liverpool Fc

apart from not playing teams that were in same group is it an open draw i.e. if we both get through could we get united?

risk in running down your contract and you get injury with two months left i'm sure they do have some form of insurance clubs have insurance too for catastrophic injury that ends career but it doesn't pay out for "wear and tear" injuries that eventually causes player to quit

outmuscled vidic fast eye for goal technically good young i think he would be great for us

Rafa get the transfer kitty and spend it all on this bloke babel torres benzema front three would win us the title

i remember stats few years ago that showed we won more games when gerrard wasn't playing stats mean nothing without seeing opposition

do a bayer leverkusen and go for the win finnan hyypia carra arbeloa/aurelio masch alonso gerrard pennant babel torres although i think we'll see kuyt for his ability to hassle defenders instead of crouch

Souness last night on the TV said it was a classic European game in England where the English team asks the continental team to do everthing 2 seconds/2 yards quicker and the European team is not able to as they don't play like that he also reckoned it would be difficult for Inter as Italian teams are set up to counter attack and not to come looking for goals, that's why Italian football can be difficult to watch We won't be able to impose our tempo over there and they just need to score one to make us nervous Interesting but I would have taken 2-0 before the game Obviously not as good as 0-0 but nearly as good

mentioned this in another thread carra interview was after he had showered and changed so he had time to collect his thoughts i thought gerrard didn't want to come across as saying we had beaten inter and the job was done same as rafa really

Carra really backed Rafa Said he was the biggest influence on his career etc etc Tracksuited interview so he had time to collect his thoughts

will rafa change it around between now and second leg to save players for it

would this reduce our net spend if they paid us rather than us sack rafa
