The Derby Match Thread

[Antynwa]

Since I'm not going the match I'm going to sleep in right up to kick off, get up, watch the game on mute and hope for the best.

 

Fucks sake, I hate football

[Red Nick]

We will win and caution shall be part of our game for the rest of the season.

[The Chef]

Forgive my ignorance, but does anybody know if Fernando passed his test yet?

 

Jesus i hope so.He's meant to be pickin me up from the juicer later

[kingkenny78]

Let's get ripped into these fuckin bitter cunts.

 

Look at their gaffer for fuck's sake. Last time I saw a face like that, it was hangin out a poacher's pocket.

[Liverpool lad]

The only saving grace if we get beat is how funny this forum will be

I daren't even think about it for long.

[BexBissel]

Here's the team boys:

 

....................................Reina............................................

Johnson..................Carragher........Agger.................... Insua

.......................Mascherano...... Lucas..................................

Kuyt.............................Gerrard..................................Aurelio

.......................................N'Gog...........................................

 

And with that in mind 2-0 to us N'Gog (2)

[big crazy pepe]

I'm sitting next to him now watching Jerry Maguire. He can't make the game tomorrow, but he's sitting here in his Liverpool shirt playing with Biscan.

 

i'll say you said hello.

 

Don't bother, he stopped responding to my texts.

 

Jesus i hope so.He's meant to be pickin me up from the juicer later

 

Be gentle.

Damn, was hoping Yossi would be fit to start.

[Rex Banner]

I just want to see the right attitude today, we need to come out all guns blazing and not give them an inch. I want to see controlled aggression and quick movement not sitting off them and slow laboured build up play.

I think we'll learn a lot about the state of things behind the scenes based on the attitude our players show today. It could be a turning point in the season or another nail in the coffin and there aren't many spaces left.

[Paul]

The only saving grace in our fucking awful season thus far is that the Blueshite have been in no position to gloat. I work with loads of the fuckers and they've been completely silent about our shitty run and haven't even mentioned today's game.

 

Because of their poor form and injuries and feeling reasonably confident about today. However, as others have said, set-pieces could be the key. We need to avoid conceding stupid fucking free kicks in our own half (yes, Lucas and Skrtel - I'm looking at you) and also try to prevent handing them any corners, too.

 

If we do that we should be alright. However, I'm not too sure where our goals are going to come from. I think Aquilani has to see some time on the pitch today with that in mind, regardless of the welcome he might get from that bunch of fucking cloggers.

[She Knows It]

I don't think any of us are looking forward to today. It'll be a poor game, and even more scrappy than normal down to lack of key players on both sides. You've got more riding on it than us though, and I reckon you'll win. Good luck lads, may the best team win (or not, I hope!) *offers warm and hearty handshakes all round*

[Faustus]

Reina

 

Johnson

Carragher

Agger

Aurelio

 

Mascherano

Lucas

 

Kuyt

Gerrard

Benayoun

 

N'Gog

 

As Dave says in the match preview, I think it will come down to who wants it more. When you could perhaps question the commitment of a few of our players to the cause, I just hope we show that desire.

[Brownie]

I haven't really been focussing too much on this game because I have a massive one to play in myself this morning (it's obviously been there in the background).

 

Just received a text from my manager though to say our game is off due to the incessant rain so I can now fully shift my attentions to todays game.

 

Come on you fucking mighty reds!

 

If that is the team, posted further up the page (by Bex), then I have to say i'm a little disappointed about the left hand side. I'd much prefer to see Aurelio at left back because it's patently clear to me that Insua has been struggling lately.

 

I'd like to think that the coaching staff would have noticed this?

 

Ahead of Aurelio i'd obviously like to see some flair at least either in the shape of Benayoun or Riera.

 

Anyway, you never know in football so we'll just have to watch the game and then make our judgements after that.

 

As I said, come on redmen!

I think, or is more I hope, that this is cos neither Benayoun or Riera are fit enough to start just yet. Is Albert even fit enough for the bench actually?

[Paulie Dangerously]

I hate derby day

[Brownie]

Well he was on the bench against Man City last week so unless he's had a setback then I would presume he is.

[discuit]

So Torres is out then? Is that the official word from the internets?

[Bellflower]

I just want to see the right attitude today, we need to come out all guns blazing and not give them an inch. I want to see controlled aggression and quick movement not sitting off them and slow laboured build up play.

I think this will be Gollum's team talk mate.................................

[Fugitive]

Liverpool win 3-1 and N'gog first scorer... 80/1.

 

Well worth a few quid.

[Iantn]

Well he was on the bench against Man City last week so unless he's had a setback then I would presume he is.

 

But he weren't at Debrecen, I don't recall.

 

Or is he not in the European squad?

[Carradona]

Come on you redmen. Let's get stuck into these today!

[Antynwa]

David 'Thierry Henry' Ngog is going to fuck their shit up

[Brownie]

But he weren't at Debrecen, I don't recall.

He is in the European squad. As I said, I don't know if he had a set-back.

 

If he's on the bench today though, I presume he's fit.

[RobbieOR]

Can't wait for this now.
