    Dunphy: Take Torres and Gerrard out and not one LFC player would make the Chelsea team.

    Surely Mascherano would? Perfect replacement for the ageing Makalele.

    If Citeh were playing I'd understand your endevour!

    I wonder how fit and sharp Lampard will be, its hardly ideal for him.

    Liverpool have scored more than Arsenal, Chelsea & Manchester Utd this season. Thank you, come again.

    Since they have only won once in the nine games they played against the other big four, im guessing those goals came against derby probably?

    Yes , of course. In 2 games against Derby we've scored over 100 goals. :rolleyes:

    If you have watched some of the games derby played this season, you would realise it was quite possible :p

    Torres should have scored there.

    Woulda put my house on torres scoring that, if i owned one that is.

    That was a penalty on Drogba.... clumsy tackle and Carragher got nowhere near the ball. And Ray houghton said it wasnt so none of this anti-Liverpool RTE nonsense!! ;)


    EDIT: I see it was outside the box but it was a clear foul and Carragher was the last man...otherwise Drogbas was in...

    Damn it Torres.

    Carra got the slightest touch on the ball.

    Yes, peno. Just one problem, it was outside.

    Doesnt matter where he lands, the foul was outside.

    Well the initial foul was outside the box so twas only a free


  • Posts: 14,379 ✭✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    Okay hadnt noticed. Was a foul though. Ill accept that though, but for Ray houghton to say it wasnt a foul is laughable.

    poor decision. babel was most definately offside AND interfering with play.

    A lucky break for liverpool.

    How was he interfering?

    That same thing happens all the time with the current rules.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,745 ✭✭✭✭Villain


    Was the ball stationery when the quick free kick for the goal was taken?? I don't think so


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,467 ✭✭✭smemon


    Draw
    Chelsea to come out storming second half and win 2-1 :)

    Gooing a goal down is the best possible motivator for an away side in the knockout rounds.

    Oh it starts! Babel stopped dead and was therefore passive. :)

    The story of that half was Chelsea started brighter, kept thier shape and closed down well, but as the clock ticked on they ceeded more space to Liverpool in the middle and a few chances started falling to them. Had they bus been parked furthur up the field then I reckon 0-0 it would still be.

    Mike.

    By slowly walking away from the goal and making no attempt to go for the ball ?

    Three words describe that half. ALONSO IS BACK. He has looked sharper than he has all season.

    The goal says everything you need to know about Kuyt. Terrible technique on the initial cross, runs back and wins the ball, gets on the end of the scuffed shot and scores a goal. He is the hardest working player in football today.
