They'll be vunerable through the centre i think, what with Makalele.

We're not great at putting centres in for the big fellas.

Yeah, there seems to be quite a few weaknesses in their team. The only worry for me being set pieces (Ballack, Lampturd and Drogba), and mainly, Robben and KAlous pace.

Get Crouch up against Ferreira and and put high balls in to the box and they'll be under undoubted pressure.

No get those big fellas up against Cech. A good call from Rafa IMO.

Plus Bellamy can impact from the bench.

I agree - I'm still nervous as **** though.
C'mon you REDS!!!

We should also bear in mind that we aren't playing our full team too. Garcia, Kewell and Sissoko are missing and they are players who certainly can make a difference in such tight matches.

Me to, unlikely as it is.

He looks like a scrum-half..

He looks like a rag doll waiting to be hit to me......

It's time for us to come of age in the league.

How's the weather up there though ?

Good point and with Crouch's ability to head the ball.

Anyway, how are you gonna watch the match today Bob, via a feed from the office ?

Change of plan... staying in till end of play. Enforced due to a hangover from last night.

I have the worst hangover I have suffered in 10 years - if we don't win I will cry for the rest of the day

I'm sure they'll get a goal from a set play. We need two to win IMO.

What's he saying ?

Also hungover, but 3 points and a few beers should sort us both out.
