I thought the consensus was that the longer they stay in Europe would travel, injuries, recovery time etc would be a bigger advantage to us?

Well obviously, but neither of Arsenal and City was likely to progress were they?

Nuri Sahin · 19-02-2014 10:52PM

What we have to ask ourselves is when we do sign Kroos, will we play him at CB or RB?

Turtyturd · 19-02-2014 10:54PM

One positive to take out the game tonight is that by 'my brother would beat your brother' rules we would beat Bayern 3-1 making us the best team in the world.

Hangballlouie · 19-02-2014 10:56PM

There is Arsenal fans actually hoping Spurs, yes Spurs, finish ahead of us.

You bitter fcuks have really got to some Arsenal fans.

Can't be real Arsenal fans if they want Spurs to finish ahead of anyone.

Well midfielders can be made into world class cms apparently so i see no logic why it cant work the other way around. Stick kroos out wide, pace to burn.

As an Arsenal fan, I don't condone this statement! Jesus, Spurs of all teams.

I certainly don't want Spurs to finish ahead of Liverpool. I want the old rivals of the 80's back. If we don't win the league I'd be delighted if Liverpool won it. Anything to keep it away from the nouveau riche clubs.

Along with Pogba and Vidal.......they'll have some midfield

I though there was another one with Reus in CM, that was a good one too.

Grayditch · 20-02-2014 12:24AM

Can anyone realistically see Pogba in a United shirt, though?

Well, apart from when you look here...

shamrock55 · 20-02-2014 12:27AM

Im just watching lfc tv and aldos team of 87-88, and it just got me thinking if our current 11 would beat that team?[CENTER

brucie
nicol gillespie hanson ablet

houghton spackman mcmahon barnes

beardsley aldo

this is the team that beat forest 5-0 in one of the greatest displays ever for a liverpool team, so you could put whealen in there instead of spackman normally

just wondering would any of our current side get in that team and could our current team beat them

personally i think the above back 4 and keeper stays the same, id put stevie instead of spackman or whealan,and of course luis most probably instead of beardsley,

i think if the 2 teams played 10 games in a row our current team might get 1 win and a couple of draws at best

what you guys think?[/CENTER]

Liverpool U18s are in the FA Youth Cup quarter finals against Reading, Liverpool beat them 4-2 in the Premier Academy League last November.

Here is a match report from tonight's 2-0 win filched from RAWK

We really were the much better side throughout and our quality was evident, completely dominated the match from start to finish and got the comfortable win our play deserved. I missed the first ten minutes due to long queue's to get in (2000 fans turned up), so I may have missed something, but I can not remember Fulton making a save.

Our football was a joy to watch at times, with some really clever passing and interplay, Rossiter played well as the deepest mid, always available for the pass and always composed on the ball, ahead of him Brannagan, DTS, Wilson, Kent and Ojo all were good as an attacking unit, always looking for the ball and trying to make things happen with dribbles/clever runs. We had plenty of chances and piled on the pressure, but it did seem like the first half may end 0-0, until DTS struck to put us in the lead.

In the end the two goals were really similar, good play through the midfield, culminating into a pass to the overlapping Randall to drill it into the box. DTS got on the end of one in the first half, and Wilson in the second.

After the second goal went in Chirivella came on and they went down to ten due to injuries, and the game pretty much became a keep ball session, but Sinclair did almost finish off a great move right at the end. Perhaps the only disappointment was that we didn't get a few more goals, because our play merited it on the night.

All in all a good display, comfortable win and thoroughly entertaining evenings football.

Professor Tim explains

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/football/teams/tottenham-hotspur/10650048/Dnipro-v-Tottenham-Tim-Sherwood-has-eyes-focused-on-Europa-League-prize-in-Ukraine.html

Tim Sherwood believes winning the Europa League for Tottenham Hotspur will do far more for his reputation as a manager than qualifying for the Champions League as he looks to balance the club’s ambitions with his own.

Spurs are desperate to return to European football’s top table and began the season with the main aim of securing a top-four finish in the Premier League. But their young manager bristled at the suggestion that ambition should come at the expense of pursuing silverware.

Somehow I doubt this will actually happen as they could be gonski by next Thursday but it could just help Liverpool if Sherwood really thinks they can win it.

That article sounds like a load of balls
Europa league better than CL qualification and the money/prestige it brings?
Yeah right

Bitter, bitter???? I still haven't gotten over the fact that on that night the 12yo devliman burst into tears in front of his Utd supporting Dad and brother

If it makes you feel better. I'll never forget the day God scored that hattrick against Arsenal, watched the match with my stepdad and stepbrother, Utd and Arsenal respectively.
Utd Fan - Arsenal will hammer these.
Fowler - goal 1, 2 and 3 in under 5 minutes there.
Arsenal Fan - thanks for jinxing it.
Liverpool Fan (me) - ha ha. Go fu@k yourselves.

Good times.

He doesn't really say that though - just says they want to go for both.

What else is he going to say, "fuck this competition we're in this week, it's stupid and smells."

Really have to get it to him first time though, cause it takes him 3 days to rise again.

The whole Arsenal/Spurs rivalry is more of a geographical thing though, for people actually from the area. Most Arsenal fans on boards are likely to have far more friends who support Liverpool than Spurs so slagging etc would be better if Liverpool missed out. I say this as a Newcastle fan who would much rather beat United/Liverpool than Sunderland because I know more supporters of these clubs. I understand the intense rivalry for people from the area but that doesn't apply to most of us on boards.

Which is?

Also that Sherwood interview seems to smack of him resigning to the fact he won't get CL

My Arsenal supporting brother was watching that game with me. He left the room when Fowler scored the first, and heard me shouting on the second and third but thought I was kidding. I mean, who scores 3 goals in under 5 minutes??

I can't imagine he would actually be resigned to that, the gap is tiny and they are in good form. What manager would give up on something they were that close to?
