1991, the last time we turned around a first leg defeat

[Tom]

That's the task facing us next week.

Cheers for the optimistic post, as per normal

but really speaking, we've been fairly **** throughout the 90's

Yes, but the 90's are over Reece.

Is Anfieldanfield suffering from a split personailty disorder? Or does he just have two log-ins?

Quite.

It's a statistic not an opinion.

Cue someone with that quote about statistics and lamposts...

I'm afraid but tom has a point. It would require a mammoth performance for us to go trough, make no mistake about that. We should send the reserves and the kids at Portsmouth on saturday.

2 seasons ago, we turned around a 3-0 deficit in 45 minutes. I prefer that statistic

[Tom]

If you want an opinion I'll give it you:

What we have to do next week: is to carve-out an equalizer, hold-off dogbreath for 90 minutes, hold him off for another 30 in extra time and go for the lottery of pens. I can't see chelski shipping 2 goals over 90 mins as their defence is too strong. Am I pessimistic. Yes frankly.

[Reece]

I'm afraid

Don't be scared little fredo

Don't be scared little fredo

I'm manly enough.

And we haven't beaten Chelsea 2-0 at Anfield since...January 2007.

[Tom]

Yes, a chelski lacking their two centre-backs. They'll be more or less full strength on tuesday, a goal up and playing us on the break. It's a horrible postion to be in because if we concede we are out.
