Agreed. This season our defence has been tested many many times and failed. It hasn't helped him, but he hasn't helped our defence stability as well.

Your problem.

I'd go for 5, 8, 17, 21, 33 and 39. Last season they outplayed us at home while we were the better side in Madrid. We got lucky with that penalty in the dying seconds. I seem to remember they were more dangerous in the friendly game at the beginning of the season as well although it was just a friendly.

Atletico will play much better on Anfield. Who the f*** is going to score for us next week. Give Aguero a little bit of space and it's a goal. We had the chance to decide it here, but a lack of firepower has cost us (again). Next week will be much tougher.

He won't even need a shower.

Still got my ticket for the 2001 final which I bought on the day of the final at the stadium! Boss tickets they were, right down at the pitch. If Hamburg get to the final then forget about extra tickets. But there should be enough hotel facilities available for us.

2nd assesment

Why would anyone now pay 500m when in six months time the value could drop significantly. If RBS indeed agrees to extend the loan, then nothing will happen these 6 months and this thread has grown to 500 pages!

Great corner by Ribery! Robben must have seen dvd's from Riise.

I've texted Mark van Bommels dad to congratulate his son from all liverpool fans. I guess I'm not bragging!!

If so, then they will be at the game 2morrow?

Van Gaal or (non realistic) Guardiola. Not going to happen for both of them and us unfortunately.

Agreed

f*** me but that face of Stevie says it all. At least it shows he knows whats at stake and cares.

WTF is wrong with Beneyoun? Ref whistles for a foul on Insua he lets the ball just past him.

They all don't look bothered.

WTF whas Benayoun doing there? Just looking how he could cross the ball.

I love Stevie.

To be honest, but it is not that hard to defend against us. We're so predictable and our tempo is so slow it is easy for them.

We hit the cross bar. It will go how it the whole season is going. We will conceed and then with ten minutes left we will put some some effort in it trying to equalize.

On this moment he and Insua destabilize our defence. Of course it's obvious that Insua is the one who is most contributing to it. But johnson is very soft at defending 1 to 1 and he rarely blocks a cross. Barcelona have attacking full backs as well but the main difference with us is that they put pressure on the half of the opponent and we do it on our side of the pitch which is not helping Johnson.

Johnson is defensively very average.

0-3 Fans already leaving. can't blame them.

5 minutes played. 0-2 already.
