we won't win the champions league this year

[Ben_Itez]

The best case scenario:

Watford or Blackburn to beat the scum and chavs and somehow one of them winning the FA cup. Failing that Utd are welcome to it.

Chelsea winning the league.

Us to win Champions league obviously.

That way the dirty mancs will be trophyless or at best win the FA cup, we get up both teams noses by winning the BIG ONE which they both clamour after soooo much and further cement our place in history as the greatest football team ever in England. I dont want to even consider the other possibilities but then again there's no need as we're gonna win it for the 6th team. There's not too much between all three sides in terms of ability but we have by FAR the more tactically astute manager and for this reason alone we will prevail!!

In Rafa we trust

[SouthAfricaRed]

So the question now is this:

Do we burn Tom at the stake for heresy (obviously after having hurled unfathomable amounts of textual abuse at him) straight after we beat the Chavs, or do we wait until
the crowning glory of Stevie hoisting our sixth European Cup having beaten MILAN in the final again?

Either way, he has to burn.

I say we give him a chance - Throw him in the River, If he doesnt drown then we Burn him

[Maestro]

BURN HIM!!!!

[bazza76]

Tom what do you reckon on our chances against Man city at the weekend ?

Doesn't look good does it ? then we play the mighty Middlesborough...

We've had it eh ?

Can't see us making the CL next year now

Might as well forget about building the new Fortress Anfield and as for Rafa might as well sack him and then sell Stevie G for what we can get...


Tom.. Liverpool are in the semi final of the greatest cup competition in the world if you can't be positive about that then I would suggest you forget football & get a job with sky sports and do a double act with Andy Gray
He's as positive about Liverpool as you are.

[bazza76]

BURN HIM!!!!

is he a witch? maybe he will float on water

[Mumsafan]

Virtually everyone of your reasons for us not winning it can be flawed!!!

Full of ****!!!

C'mon you Redmen

[Myo]

See my comments in green below to your verdict TOM..

Reason 1
We wont get past chelski, because:


i) they owe us one for the last semi.
We owe em for them being above us in the league
ii) it's maureen's last season, and the players are doing it for him.
hypothetical bullcrap, plus u could argue some of our players are playing for a new bumper contract considering the investment we are goin to be raking in from the yanks
iii) at some point all that money has got to pay off.
What? consider the fact that they have won the league 2 years running and on the possible verge of 3 titles in a row? You don't think that is the pay-off? again hypothetical from your end


Reason 2
if we do get to the final, we'll loose to the mancs, because:

i) they always beat us in big finals.
Well, if its about choking, i think we have done alot in terms of mentality and coming back....i truely believe we can beat em - close game mind ya
ii) it's fergie's last season, and the players are doing it for him.
who says?
iii) it's the 40th anniversary of their first european cup, this year they are the team of destiny.
hmmm...thought 68 as well? anyhow posters above have validated this...It's our destiny for Rafa to get one up over fergie and it's about time...
iv) after their huge victory last night they have the big mo, they are the team of destiny.
No, Roma was completely shocked and mentally couldn;t cope, i think you'll find our fans, even if we are down, will lift the players up when they start a rendition of YNWA...always remember that...and you should from '05
v) they're a better team than us.
again alot of hogwash, we outplayed em the last time we met and it was unfortunate that we conceeded in the 11th hour...


I can feel it in me waters.

I think your water is maybe a little murky to be making these assumptions but bravo for at least speaking up in terms of your feelings....COME on LADS...BACK OUR TEAM and tell the others to BRING IT ON!!!

YNWA...

[ronan]

havent heard someone use the term hogwash for about 100 years
bet there will b eone major contreversial decision by the ref in one of the 2 semis to ensure its not a man u /liverpool final.
the trashheap has spoken.

[desertscouser]

I didn't realise Essien was out of the first leg with Cole, Drogba, Diarra and Ballack all on yellows.

Essien is a massive blow for them.

[lfc4ever]

Own up, who is responsible for rating all of the threads??

Looks like a kindergarten good behaviour gold star day on the front page!!

Are Cole, Drogba, Diarra and Ballack one yelow cad away from suspension? Do we have any players close to being suspended?

[desertscouser]

Yeah they're one card away from suspension. We should wind them up the whole first leg and get them to kick off and draw the yellow.

I'm not sure where we stand on yellows but I think only Pennant has one.

All the news here...but, in brief:
"while Liverpool, who welcome back Dirk Kuyt after his ban, have concerns only over Jermaine Pennant. Milan are similarly blessed, with just captain Paolo Maldini walking the tightrope."
