Bad, bad feeling

[mark1975]

We'll be fine provided Rafa plays the right team i.e. one containing Sissoko , Alonso, Gerrard.

I think he will.. I'm still quite worried though..

[ronan]

nah, dont see it.
a lot of the players have been talking about how tough pre season was this year, even doing weights before games.
they will preare for this match like a normal game with plenty of rest beforehand.
i expect to see the real team perform on wed. night.

[Le Chacal]

Im worried, especially after that humiliation last week...Maccabi are not Benfica though and we should go through. Missing the CL would be a disaster and mean the end of our title aspirations for the next 5 years.

[Tom]

We're not fit and playing like a bunch of old women.

just a tad ott

[Le Chacal]

You're underestimating the importance of CL nowadays on clubs finances.
Its VITAL.
If we miss it, we'll have no money for transfers next january and summer + we'll have to sell players.

[Bob]

We're not fit and playing like a bunch of old women.

Fitness wise we'll not be up to speed till about 4 games into the season. Comparable to any other pre-season though.

We'll be back to normal soon.

Liverpool 2 - Macabbi 0.

It`s in the leaves

They said that to him before the Benfica game

Yeah but whilst Tom has his ear to the ground ahead of most of us on LFC developments, he`s got as much clairvoyant ability as Madame Tralawnney [no offence]

[ronan]

oh i dont doubt its importance, but to suggest that if we miss out for one year that the following five years we would be non runners in the premiership is without doubt unrealistic.

[Nic83]

I think we will advance through quite easily over the two legs.

[JermainePennant]

I have the same feeling about this game and I had the feeling before the benfica game.I think we will slip up but playing at a neutral ground for the second game could help us.

Didnt Tom say before the fa cup final that he thought we would lose?

[leftpeg]

I remember your prediction too Tom. Extraordinarily clairvoyant. But I'm hoping that you've used up your special powers.

Personally, I think we'll go through, but Macabi Haifa will think they can nick it after our less than convincing pre-season performances, so it will be a tough match on Wednesday. We need to put our foot down and show them what we're made of.

Read what Carra has to say about it today on the offal.

For wednesday, can't shake it. I think we're not going through... .

funnily enough i have the same feeling. not sure if it's because of the last three pre-season results.

[kurtangle01]

We haven't won our home tie of the 3rd round Quals in the past 2 years.

I also have this feeling that we are UEFA Cup bound this year.

i'm hoping that our away performance mirror's the ones we've had in the past 2 years.

[Red_Al_77]

We'll be fine. Home strip, home ground, large crowd, european night. Time for the players to get serious. They'll deliver.
