LFC v. Derby match thread

[tomasjj]

Arbeloa has been superb again. Lovely set up for Babel's goal.

Yes. That was sterling work by Alvaro.

Setanta pundit raving about the team / squad.

Didn't like his pop at Pako though - "Where is the fitness coach now?"

Second-Half kicking off shortly.

[sid]

Not a massive fan of Kuyt, i really hope he can show some form but i feel Babel would be suited better in that role behind Torres and i fear for kuyt should rafa do this.

Great half, and I think Kuyts played well again, m.m.m at present is pennant, Torres being a pain in the ass with his movement though. Great half.

[bigfooty]

Should have been 3-0. A great burst forward from Arbeloa rattles Derby, slips it to Torres, he passed to Kuyt who turns it on to Xabi who sclaffs it wide when goal was gaping.

[Sprouty]

We are turning into Arsenal. Trying to walk it into the ****ing net.

[bigfooty]

Riise coming on shortly, no indication as to why.

[bigfooty]

Pennant blocks a pass, storms forward, plays it to Torres but he is engulfed by 4 Derby players.

[bigfooty]

Derby pushing up more to pressure Sami / Agger, it is true in the first half they had waaaay to much time on the ball.

[bigfooty]

Arbeloa and Fagan clash on the far touchline, Arbeloa down. Looks like Fagan stamped on him. Deliberate. Dirty little ****.

[bigfooty]

Arbeloa is not happy, nor is Xabi. Fagan now diving. Ref having a word with Fagan telling him to cut out the nonsense.

[slimbimjim]

****ing hell I can't wait to get Liverpool TV on Setanta in October.

I've not been this excited about Liverpool since we topped the charts at Christmas a few years ago!

PS. Why hasn't Torres scored yet? Is he playing ok?

[bigfooty]

Fagan's dive won him a free-kick though, Camara drills it into the wall.
