Liverpool v Besiktas- Build Up Thread

[Pacman]

-------------Reina
-Finnan----Carra--Sami---JAR
-Yosi------Stevie--Mascher--Babel
----------Kuyt----Voronin-------

I would play Crouch and Kewell and not play Kuyt and Voronin but I remember the last game where they commentator said the Rafa thinks that they can't handle pace.

A couple of translated lines from Hyypiä (monday):

"Torres practised with the team today. I believe he is in the team but not sure if he'll make the starting 11.

Agger should start practising this week but it will take some time for him to get back to the match condition.

There has been a lot of games lately and it's been little difficult for an old man, but it's always nice to play."

Just off to the match in a bit.
To anyone else going wherever you are sitting,
let's raise the ****ing roof tonight and show the Besiktas fans
what Anfield is all about.

I'll predict a win.
Gerrard man of the match.
Crouch to score.

[glynner]

I have no doubt the Turks will park the bus in front of the goal tonight, and try and get a late goal on a counterattack.

IMO we need Crouch in this game, and decent balls whipped into him so he can play others around him in on goal

I think the longer it takes us to score, the more frustrated the players (and fans) will get. I hope Yossi gets the nod in this game too - his guile will be needed

[Endless Dream]

I definitely think we'll win tonight and the fans will show everyone what Anfield is all about. Blow the roof off the place tonight lads and ladies! If Crouch scores it'll be the first step he needs to shut the press and some of the doubters up. Big performances needed all over the park tonight. Big game on, COME ON RED MEN!

I've got a bad feeling about this game, I can see a 0-0 stalemate

Over the last few games we have slowly been improving in our general play, its taking its time but its coming. I think its all going to click against the turks and we will give them a hiding they will remember for some time, then lawrie the tit sanchez is getting it big time at the weekend too.

I did, and if you call me a zombie again i`m gonna **** you into the middle of next week

[Johnny]

I just don't feel good about anything to do with LFC nowadays. We'll probably have most of the possession with no real chances to show for it. They'll likely nick a goal, then we'll scramble one back for a 1-1 draw...UEFA Cup here we come.


I'll gladly eat my words if I'm wrong...
