Wonder how many we will have out through injury? City on a run of bad results also Come on you mighty reds !
International football has played a massive part in blowing apart our season so far, dread to hear what the news will be on Thursday morning. This was always going to be a big game but with the horror show that we've been going through in recent weeks its even bigger. With Johnson, Aquilani, Gerrard and Torres getting some well earned rest and rehabilitation hopefully this is the one where we really show everyone else what we're all about and get this season back on track.
Lucas, Kyrgiakos, Babel, Kuyt and Reina are the only players potentially involved this mid week I think. Not as bad as some international weeks for a change.
Lets stuff these ****s gees with our massive mighty red cocks. We dont carry bottles We dont carry lead We only carry hatchets to bury in your head We are loyal supporters Fanatics everyone We all hate man city, leeds and everton We are the scousers The cocks of the north We hate man utd and city of course We only drink whisky and bottles of brown The Liverpool boys are in town Na na na na nanananana nanananana Oh we're the boys on the social, The boys on the dole, We're so ****ing ugly We can't get our hole, But we all go mental When we score a goal, Oh the Liverpool Boys are in town. Na, na, na.
Shouldn't be too hard of a decision Seems like most came out of the internationals injury free! So hopefully we've a strong starting 11
This game is absolutely massive. Not only is it another game were the press and everyone is looking for us to fall flat on our face it's a game against the pretenders to our throne. City will fancy snatching the 4th CL position and that is all we have to play for this season, surely. This game could really shape not only this season but where we are going to find ourselves next season and in the future. We need a solid performance and quite simply a win against a City team packed with good players. We need to show them that they need to up a level if they want to break into the top 4. I am terrified of this fixture and have given up making predictions. if we can get Aquilani, Gerrard and some time out of Torres we have a real chance. One thing for sure is Reina and the back four need to get a grip! I think Reina has been poor at times this term and this included flapping at both Birmingham goals and failing to cut out the Lyon winner at Anfield and their equaliser away.
Can't agree with that at all, he has been one of the few players that can take credit for his performances to date especially playing behind the back 4 in its current form. The international break has come at the right time for us and if we can beat Man City and put a few consecutive wins together things will start to look a bit better.
I knew people would disagree with that and that's fine. I'm not saying he's a poor keeper only that he is suffering a drop in form and confidence like the rest of the defence. I really think he could have defended/commanded his 6 yard box better for the Birmingham first goal. He was certainly found flapping for the second Birmingham goal, but it was a screamer. I think he lacked conviction in the 6 yard box against lyon for their winner and could possibly have done better for their equaliser over there! Too often we have dominated position had numerous chances to take the lead and passed them up. Only to be hit with a sucker punch by the opposition who score with their first shot on target. Reina is certainly not over worked but I feel there is a confidence issue with him. Reina is a great keeper and made some great saves against Lyon away and has been one of our more consistent players but there is room for improvement. if he starts commanding his box then maybe our back 4 will get a grip? Constructive criticism based only on the high standards Reina has set himself.
Gerrard thinks he will be fit for this one after the second injection. cant awiat. Should be a good game!
