Team against Chelsea in the CC

[Neil Young]

I'd like to see Jerboa given a chance before it's too late.

[Red Chilli]

Ofcourse.

How comes I ended up giving you one of the spare programs I picked up then

How comes I ended up giving you one of the spare programs I picked up then

Because I left John Lennon Airport at 9.00am in the morning and by the time I got to Istanbul and made my way on those ****e busses to the ground all the programe stalls in the car park, sorry 'fans festival', were being used as urinals by pissed up reds because all the programmes had sold out.

[The Glove]

Sold out? You mean robbed

[kurtangle01]

Sold out? You mean robbed

Sounds about right.

On a serious note though there was a big artic lorry, a forty footer, at the side of the car park. It was full of Amstel. They were unloading it to sell ****ty cans of Amstel at that bit where they were selling some rank looking burgers. To all it a burger stall would be an overstatement in the extreme.

This lad walked up as they were unloading the crates grabeed to two and ran like ****.

Xabi Alonso has given boss Rafael Benitez a timely boost ahead of Wednesday night's Carling Cup quarter-final tie at Chelsea with the news he is fit and ready for action.
The Spanish midfielder has been out since suffering a metatarsal injury in the 1-1 draw with Arsenal back in October, but after missing the last 10 matches, boss Rafa Benitez revealed he is now back in time for what promises to be a busy festive schedule.

"Xabi is training normally and should be available for the game at Chelsea," said Benitez.

"We are going into a busy period with lots of games so it is important to have out best players available.

"So Xabi's return is a big boost."

The return of Alonso adds further strength to Liverpool's midfield options ahead of the clash at Stamford Bridge, but they will have to continue to cope without defender Daniel Agger, who is still not ready for a return to action.

The Reds will check today on the fitness of Steve Finnan to see if the defender is ready to return.

what is up with Danny Agger? Glad we're not risking him too early but he's taking ages to get over his injury

[Red_Polo]

Kinell, starting to wonder if there is something else going on with Agger!

I don't think so, mate.

He had a set back, and the pains are not yet gone so he has been sent to a specialist.

Cheers for the update tom

So frustrating

We really miss him, not least for his composure on the ball.

[tomasjj]

Well, that is what I read on LFC.no anyway.

We do miss him, and we miss Alonso.

Can of worms.....

Let's put SG on the right now when Alonso is back...

[kopash]

Liverpool (from): Reina, Arbeloa, Carragher, Hyypia, Riise, Kewell, Gerrard, Mascherano, Benayoun, Alonso, Kuyt, Torres, Aurelio, Babel, Crouch, Finnan, Hobbs, Itandje, Leiva, Voronin, Sissoko.

This is the squad from BBC which is not always accurate. Can't be right surely?

[sonsofthedesert]

Rafa will put out a strong team for this clash as it is Cheslea, we need a boost at the mo after the weekend and it gets us closer to winning something.

You can **** off with that **** right now!
