The next 3 league games starting today are huge IMO.

 

3 chances to put abu dhabi really under it.

 

Imagine being 12 pts ahead of them by the time they next play - that is what we could have if we win our next 3 starting today.

 

Yes they'd have games in hand - but that is some serious scoreboard pressure so to speak.

 

Fact one of those 3 games is against Arsenal as well is of course huge too.

 

 

And the match that follows it is Newcastle, so it will be good to get that one out of the way while they're struggling with injuries.

As with all of our games so far this season (and the majority of last), if we play with the right level of intensity, they won't be able to live with us. If we stroll around half arsed, as if we've got the game won already, they might get something out of it. We'll only know after the first 5-10 minutes which Liverpool team has turned up. It certainly won't be the crowd who aren't up for it that's for sure.

The atmosphere v these has not been as vicious as it should be IMO in recent years.....i wouldn't say it is shite, but it hasn't had that edge to it IMO......Almost dare I say it a bit of 'oh these are shite we'll hammer them' about it. I was at the 4-0 a couple of seasons ago and remarked at game how it hadn't got the edge to it that it should have.

 

We really should be up for them big time and if we are dicking them taking the piss relentlessly - they would.

 

Never forget what these are - never forget how they gloated for 20 years and never forget all the vitriol, hatred and horrible shite they sing about us....The fucking rat bastards.

 

Anfield should be a bear pit whenever they are around - even if we are miles better than them - even if they rocked up here as a Division 4 side...

There is way too much talk that we are going to steamroller them. Carraghers 7up Christmas jumper isn't sitting right with me. Yeah they are shite, but we've been struggling to put away shite teams all year. 

 

Would be delighted with a scrappy 1 nil.

Spawny 1-0...a twatting...odd goal in a 7 goal thriller....a routine 2-0....a late comeback win...

 

I don't care.

 

Just.fucking.win.

Yup. In a season that’s seen the worst refereeing/VAR ever, nothing should be taken for granted.

As I’ve shown elsewhere, their injury ‘crisis’ is way overblown. Their first team have played more than Howe would have liked, but, aside Pope, they’ve been able to pick a near full strength first eleven for a while. 

[Reckoner]

I was quite confident, but then I saw Jamie Carragher was wearing a jumper and now I think we will lose eight nil.

GET THE TEAM LEAKED!!

Yeah, it's shades of last season when Neville and Keane were laughing at Souness before the game because he was confident in us getting a win.

What a fucking imbecile that guy is.

 

If there is ever a time to rub a 9 month old drubbing in an opponents face, it’s in the days leading up to the next one of those fixtures.

 

He’d be the first to bemoan someone doing that if he was still playing.

His exploits on the pitch and his homegrown status had me adoring him for a while, but even then I thought he was a whopper, and as time goes on away from him doing good stuff in a red shirt, he pisses me off more and more all the time.

 

I hope he can live with that. It’s a heavy weight to bear

I take it Salif Diao was unavailable. 

 

I'm genuinely interested in who will play the 6 today (in reality).

You know I should really be able to break into that team. If I can't break into that there's no hope. Voronin was WAY better than me.

Diao is on bench....

 

I can't see it not being Endo today - don't think Klopp will try the much called for Gomez at RB and TAA in middle...

A good point well made.

[Jordy Brouwer]

The 6 could be Endo but it could also be Jones or it could even be Trent. Its a bit far fetched who knows. 

 

If its Endo then it is what it is but I hope he can give it his best. 

[VERBAL DIARRHEA]

Suddenly not feeling this one, we have to be well up for it and take any chances. 
They will be up for it make no mistake.

It’s catastrophically stupid of him to flaunt that, as if they weren’t already going to be massively up for this game after last season’s result and their recent disappointments.

 

Add the pressure of Arsenal going back to the top, and I see them as the more likely winners today.

Well, you would, wouldn't you.
