Come on then, the biggest game in English football is upon us tomorrow, what's gonna happen?

It doesn't matter who is where in the league, beating ManU is one ofthe sweetest feelings in any season, we had a nasty spell years ago where we would outplaay them, then get done by a late goal :-( Then we had a sweet spell where we always beat them B) then recently we can't beat them again (other than on the way to winning the FA cup :p ). We were hideously outclassed at the Theatre of Queens this season, but the Liverpool team now is actually a team again rather than a collection of players.

So many runs are involved in this match, Liverpool not lost at Anfield in the league for 30 games, Liverpool not beaten ManU in the league in 5 seasons at anfield. If Liverpool lose, then I am sure like most others that the title will be over, even if you assume that Chelsea win their games in hand they will be 6 behind with 9 games to play and although ManU still have to visit the rent boys I can't see it happening. If Liverpool win, then Chelski win their games in hand, they will be 3 points behind and with the home game in hand they could be level on points, although Manu have a vastly superior goal difference, that would be close enough for Chelsea to go on and win.

To add to it, Liverpool are out of the title race and if I'm being honest we aren't even in the hunt for 2nd anymore, we do however have a much bigger game next week against Barcelona to hopefully put us through to the quarter finals of the European cup (the one we've won 5 other times :p ) Despite everyone knowing how important this game is to Liverpool fans, I wouldn't be at all surprised if Rafa fields a weakened side, possibly dropping the likes of Carragher and Gerrard with Hyypia and Agger in defence and Mascherano staying in midfield. Personally I'd put Fowler in up front, as we still have a problem finishing and he's the best there is. Of course because I am expecting Rafa to do this he could well field the best we have :lol:

This could be either a great game or one of those dull 0-0 draws as a draw wouldn't be a bad result for either side.

I think it'll be a decent game probably with Liverpool taking the lead in the first half only for Shrek to score late on :X

What do you think?

What's gunna happen the man asks! :blink:

The fool. :angry:

Naturally United are gunna stuff Liverpool, as sure as night turns to day. :lol:
 
Although it pains me to admit it i will be a scouser for the day, chances of them beating scum are slim though, my bet is for yet another dodgy keeper moment from Reina or a wonder goal from the winking diver..

lets see how many scum fans that post are from manchester lol
 
cant call it but it will be 3-0 to whoever or a draw. my heart says, Liverpool. head says not sure. lol the cheats will say Man u
 
Hmmm this thread has gone strangely quiet.

I wonder why....

OH YES! 1-0. :rolleyes:

God I hate being right.
 
i always find injustice, tends to shock people! tends to make the quiet too

Oh yeah, you were right :rolleyes: stuffed us good and proper with your only shot on target :angry:

Oh well, there was nothing in the actual game for us, we'll have to concentrate one trying to win our SIXTH european cup :p I wonder if we'll get another good result against Barcelona :unsure: while ManUre rob Lille again.

Anyway, never mind. THE best footie match I have EVER seen was Liverpool @ Euro Cup (As per your avatar).
 
We've won it 2 times
we've won it 2 times
just like nottingham forest
we've won it 2 times

PS: I just love mocking the mancs (cockneys) :p
 
Well that'll do as a tonic, we lost against the second best team in England, but we managed to knock out the best team on the continent (if not the world), though I am worried about playing two of the best teams in the world off the park within a week yet losing 1:0 to both :crazy:

It does prove that our defence and midfield are up to the job, though even with Kuyt's work rate and Bellamys pace and Crouches height we still don't have a single world class striker :rolleyes: I just wonder what the result would have been had we got someone like Judas (Owen) up front against Barca for both legs and on Saturday, in fact for the whole season, we would have been in a much better position at least challenging if not winning the Premiership.

I really hope we manage to buy a top striker in the summer, though he was innefective last night, someone like Eto'o or Torres or Villa could be the last piece of the jigsaw.

Torres - now THAT bloke is worth watching.

Though I wonder how he'll take to playing 1st div next season..... LOL
