    A tough game after internationals. Hopefully we will play with a bit more fluency. Babel could start aswell according to .tv. Only two more games until utd on the 13th.

    Looking forward to this one. First home league game of the season is always special. Hope the sun is shining for it. Hope that the last two performances have given the team the kick up the arse they need.

    Hopefully we'll actually control the game on Sat. Looking forward to seeing Dossena at Anfield, Gerrard and Alonso controlling the middle and Keane and Torres establishing more minutes twogether to get that partnership working.

    Boro had a good win last weekend and will be fired up going into the game but a home win is a must. 3-1 with Torres gettin 1 and Keane gettin 2 :D

    Game is live on Setanta Ireland

    keane is saving that first goal for man u!!

    anything less than a win will be shocking and will do nothing for confidence going into next wednesday.

    I'm expecting a good 3-0 win here, Benionion needs to pick up his game a bit more and stop going to sleep and Kuyt needs to be more clinical with his shots on goal.
    I would like to see Babel start and run at the Boro defense.

    Looking forward to this one, First home game of the season is always a big one. I reckon 2-0, Torres and Keane

    Team
    Reina, Carragher, Skrtel, Agger, Dossena, Gerrard, Alonso, Lucas, Babel, Torres, Keane

    Ooops, your right, I assumed Brazil were out.

    Stick Steve in the middle and El Zhar out right :eek::eek::eek: Kuyt will start though. Hope he does well even though I think he is Brutal on the wing

    like everyone else im looking forward to our first home game and its one i feel we can and should win

    But i dont expect this to be a walk in the park boro are a side who have improved alot over last season and seem to have carried that progression into this season with a good win over spurs on the first day

    would love to see Keane get off the mark this saturday, releive some pressure, before the doubting gremlins start to appear...I expect Downing to have a good game with all the speculation about him joining us, he might want to show rafa what he's capable of..think he might have the beating of Arbeloa. Any sort of a win will do, and hopefully keep winning to keep confidence high for Sept 13.

    Your safe on this kopirish,Lucas cant play because of his red card but if he wanted to wait around and see if Brazil got a bronze medal, well he shouldnt be at our club.;)

    Id be happy alrite with that outcome, we need to start hamering teams at anfield.
    Lets have teams running scared because there coming to play at anfield and they know they would be lucky to come away only losing by 1 or 2 goals.

    C'mon redmen!!!!!!!!!!!!

    We should win it but it is the kind of game we screwed up last season and that is why we were way off in May
