Liverpool v Crystal Palace 5.30 SKY Sports

Harry Palmr

So then the final home game of the season and essentially one with nothing riding on it. Liverpool are going to finish in an EL place and Palace are safe as houses.

The home side are missing Sakho, Sturridge, Flanno, Enrique with Balo a 'maybe'. Palace seem to be nearly full strength. Given the nature of the game I'd have be very happy to see a youthful bench - the likes of Brannagan, Ojo and Sinclair rather than packing it with summer transfers however I've read the U21s are in the Netherlands at a friendly tournament so that's unlikely.

Cos you're all soft!

Turtyturd

No mention of Gerrard coming on in the 89th minute for a quick goodbye til January?

You're cold Harry, ice cold.

Delete thread and start again!

Slattsy

That's cat!

kfallon

Won't somebody think of the kids

Oh wait, Harry always thinks of the kids.....the majority of which won't make it at the club!

J Mysterio

You'll never win anything with kids.

Agent Coulson

Poor old Glen Johnson is totally being forgotten about in what is probably his last game at Anfield if he gets some game time today.

Thanks for the memory Glen.

Mr_Muffin

Good to see Stevie G go to be honest i think the entire leaving process has been played out a bit to long at this stage.

Turtyturd

Harry's a bottler.

Harry Palmr

Anyone watching Football Focus - top 5 Liverpool players - which is the best poll.

Hilariously biased result. Speaks of the lack of memory

I didn't see it but who votes on these social media polls only young people, most of whom will never have seen Keegan, Dalglish, Barnes, Souness et al

Harry Palmr

Ha I posted that in the wrong thread, but yes you're right - the SKY Sports generation would have dominated the polling.

Agent Coulson

Sure English top league football is only 23 years old and Gerrard has played in 17 years of it so he is going to rank near the top.

mikeym

Im not too excited or emotional about this match.

Liverpool to scrape it 1-0.

dmc17

Nice match thread! What's the craic with the other team they're playing?

I actually think Palace are a decent bet today.

I think Liverpool will play today like there's something resting on it. It might take a while to break them down, but once we do, three nil.

2-1 win for the Reds. Coutinho and Gerrard with a peno.

niallo27

The greatest player in the premier league history plays his last home game. It's going to be emotional.

Washington Irving

3-0 LFC. Greatest player in PL history to score two and one from young Philippe, the current best in the league.

Agent Coulson

I can see Gerrard getting himself sent off so his last game won't be at Stoke.

Harry Palmr

Sliding tackle on Pardew ought to do it.

Harry Palmr

Liverpool XI:

Mignolet, Moreno, Lovren, Skrtel, Can, Gerrard, Coutinho, Henderson, Lallana, Sterling & Ibe

Ward, Johnson, Toure, Lambert, Lucas, Allen, Sinclair

Gerrard looks pleased at the striker free line up.

RayCon

0-2 to Palace

kevohmsford

Fair enough our striker options are not great but surely better to play one.

Dozen Wicked Words

2 2 draw. Gerrard to score a penalty.

Toobz

You'd imagine with that starting 11 maybe gerard plays highest up in the 6 man midfield to get his final anfield goal.

NomadicGray

Pardews Palace to p!ss on parade

Saturday night football away from the studio much better

I was there when Sami left and I was pretty emotional. Should have gone today really thinking about you. Dam you wife and your stupid family.

So long Glen.

dirkmeister

I didn't know that they have a Bret Hart tribute at Anfield today?

David Jones is on about "the best there is, the best there was and the best there ever will be"

helimachoptor

Slattsy

An atmosphere at Anfield.

About ****ing time.

TitianGerm

That was a great ovation. Nearly in tears here

Harry Palmr

Bloody ad breaks

ricero

murpho999

His kids are distracting him from taking this all in in my opinion.

niallo27

I'd keep an eye on the boys from Kuwait.

Not a pool fan but thought it was a nice touch having his 3 girls with him

OwaynOTT

Player cam returns! The once future football innovation.

Osmosis Jones

"In Rodgers We Trust" read the plane apparently.

murpho999

Will Gerrard play full 90 or will Rodgers take him so that he gets his ovation?
