The semi-final build-up thread

[anfieldanfield]

I don't believe ANY of this, either about Sheva or Carvalho.
Maureen would gladly pull a stunt sending Carvalho out of the dressing rooms on crutches just to try and fool us.

If Sheva and Carv start tomorrow night Mourinho will have totally humiliated himself.

I cant believe he would stoop THAT low...

I can,he`s desperate to win at all costs,just like his diving,cheating players.



They`re SCUM

[Draxdor]

I feel sick already thinking about the match - no sleep for me tonight.

Have the entire day off tomorrow... talking to some of the lads at the pub during the Portsmouth game (wasn't that a peach!)...many (including me) are gonna show up to the pub at 11AM (2:45 PM local kick-off)

Of course, since the Chavs have a minor leg-up all the coward piss-takers in blue will come out of the woodwork (not a sniff of 'em at the first leg). At the end of the match, once we've done them, I will stand up, and in as loud a voice I can still muster I will shout "Hey Chavs! A bit of advice...if you come to dance on someone's grave, you better make bloody sure they're dead!"

Tomorrow will be what they call "a good day"

[Maestro]

Well clearly Mourinho is more informed than I, but I'd pick the natural centre back every time. Essien, in that position, is positionally clueless and continually gets caught out. He was at it again on Saturday.

I feel ill about the game. Last week was nothing compared to this. Tomorrow daytime is going to be hell.

I'd have either of them ahead of Carvalho 1000 times out of 1000 though.

[friedk]

Carvalho is the big loss.

Ballack and Shevchenko out means he'll revert to 4 3 3 with Kalou/Robben/SWP and Cole supporting Drogba - which I think suits the chavs.

[Maestro]

Have the entire day off tomorrow.

Me too - it's a public holiday in Austria!

Me too - it's a public holiday in Austria!

wots it called "Schnetzel day"

Liverpool Day?

Oh no doubt. He bugs the **** out of me but nobody can deny Carvalho is a top defender. He's got a howler in him but generally he's a ****ing good defender.

Huge blow for them. My confidence soared when I heard he was out.

[Maestro]

wots it called "Schnetzel day"

So what's a schnetzel then?

[kurtangle01]

Sky are reporting that he's out but Robben has traveled and trained.

[REDSCOUSER]

So what's a schnitzel then?

[Draxdor]

There's a place round here that does a massive veal shnitzel on a bed of spicy Pad Thai... I think in honour of Maestro's national holiday I may treat myself to one of those after tomorrows match!

Also it will cut through 10 pints of Stella, possibly saving my life.

[Darth Marty]

The only thing that will save my life is a ****ing victory!!! dont care how, when or under what circumstances but a victory is a must!! ruin my whole ****ing year if we lose to these c_unts!

[Craig_H]

I'd rather Shevchenko was fit.

Without him, they'll play Drogba with Cole and Robben supporting in wide areas, which is their best system.

It's no coincidence that since Shevchenko came, and they changed their tried and tested double title-winning system, they've blown the league.

Bad news.
