rach 1 Posted April 8, 2008 Share Posted April 8, 2008 I don't want either to win! Perhaps at a push Arsenal because I'd maybe prefer to play them in a final. (Liverpool seem to get luck on Europe nights). Big worry right now is United defence with Vidic out and Rio maybe for a few games. Link to post Share on other sites
Tubby Beaver 209 Posted April 8, 2008 Share Posted April 8, 2008 Vidic is back in 2 weeks though, isn't he? Liverpool are my English team, so of course I want them to win. Beneitez needs his head read though with all his rotation in the league. Liverpool are never gonna be anywhere near to winning the title again until they consistently play their best 11 Link to post Share on other sites
rach 1 Posted April 8, 2008 Share Posted April 8, 2008 Thats what they say but that 2 weeks includes the game just gone, CL tomorrow, Arsenal at the weekend and maybe more. He is a great player and not having him and Rio at the back is a worry. Link to post Share on other sites
Tubby Beaver 209 Posted April 8, 2008 Share Posted April 8, 2008 Yeah I like Vidic, he's no nonsense type of player. Not so keen on Rio though, I think he is overrated Link to post Share on other sites
rach 1 Posted April 8, 2008 Share Posted April 8, 2008 No way! Rio has been immense this season, his best yet. He has been known to doze off once in a while but that is less this year and the huge majority of the time he has been superb. He is totally cool and collected. Him and Vidic are the best centre back pairings in football! Link to post Share on other sites

bobby12 0 Posted April 9, 2008 Share Posted April 9, 2008 Benetiz was trying to find his best team I think. I think now he has got it with gerrard playing behind torres and we will see that more. now, will crouch sign a new contract or not with that in mind? Finally the huge one tonight, cant wait for it!

rach 1 Posted April 9, 2008 Share Posted April 9, 2008 Exciting game. Well I think I'd prefer Liverpool to get to the final now - against us of course. Memories of how we smashed them up last month remain strong/ Link to post Share on other sites
bobby12 0 Posted April 9, 2008 Share Posted April 9, 2008 That was G-R-E-A-T Gerrard has balls of steel to take that penalty, my legs were shaking safely at home. This makes amends for the Micky Thomas thing back in 89 or whenever it was, when arsenal got it back to 2-2 I was so gutted but that didnt last long Was Crouch in the team cos his contract is up for renewal? Hmm, think I'd prefer Barca in the final than Man Utd. Chelsea may make it third time lucky though. Hopefully 2nd leg is at anfield. Link to post Share on other sites
bobby12 0 Posted April 9, 2008 Share Posted April 9, 2008 Forgot to say, the Kop were the 12th man again. Thats why we got the penalty last night and Arsenal didnt at the emirates. 1st leg of chelski game is at anfield Link to post Share on other sites

brit-gob 9 Posted April 9, 2008 Share Posted April 9, 2008 Cracking game. That last 10 minutes it was really swinging one way then the other. Good stuff. Link to post Share on other sites

bobby12 0 Posted April 9, 2008 Share Posted April 9, 2008 well it was pretty much straight on, not much he could do i think. really dont want man utd in the final. looks like ill be missing the 2nd leg at chelsea as ill be flying back from the US shouldve checked the schedules in advance.

Tubby Beaver 209 Posted April 9, 2008 Share Posted April 9, 2008 nah but I mean his position in the goal, he was way off to his right, leaving the left gaping. He just got caught outa position, like I said at 92 mins and 3-2 down it didn't make much difference Link to post Share on other sites
BagOfCrisps 24 Posted April 9, 2008 Share Posted April 9, 2008 I'm sad. And Wengers comments annoy me. Can't he just accept we lost. Link to post Share on other sites
2pints-mate 0 Posted April 9, 2008 Share Posted April 9, 2008 Chelsea will beat Liverpool this time. It is our turn. What is it with Liverpool and the CL anyway? Link to post Share on other sites
pie-eater 207 Posted April 9, 2008 Share Posted April 9, 2008 Cracking game. I didn't know who I wanted to win, but as a game to watch - great. Link to post Share on other sites
scouser 4 Posted April 10, 2008 Author Share Posted April 10, 2008 Bit of a let-down that game this morning after yesterday. Whats with that "penalty". Get the tv evidence in - PLEASE. Link to post Share on other sites
rach 1 Posted April 10, 2008 Share Posted April 10, 2008 That penalty was ridiculous. it was so obvious Brown got the ball - it changed direction... duh!! Link to post Share on other sites
thursday 1 Posted April 10, 2008 Share Posted April 10, 2008 Have a feeling it could be ManU and Liverpool, and ManU getting the double. Link to post Share on other sites
BagOfCrisps 24 Posted April 10, 2008 Share Posted April 10, 2008 Soft penalty at best. Brown was a bit silly to lunge in like that in the box and the ref was going overboard with the decision. I agree thursday (well at least the CL bit anyway) Link to post Share on other sites
bobby12 0 Posted April 10, 2008 Share Posted April 10, 2008 man utd vs liverpool would be horrific. we would lose and itd be worse than going out in the first round. itd be amazing for football though. Link to post Share on other sites
2pints-mate 0 Posted April 10, 2008 Share Posted April 10, 2008 No worries bobby12, let's make it Chelsea vs United Link to post Share on other sites
giggsy 0 Posted April 10, 2008 Share Posted April 10, 2008 I'm in 2 minds who I'd rather we play in the final if we get there. Normally I would say Liverpool. But Liverpool have this very strange habit of doing well in Europe! Link to post Share on other sites
