Liverpool v Chelsea CL (A) match thread

Was just thinking that. Benayoun plays much better when playing through the middle.

Aye, he was ace there at Arsenal when he played off Crouchie. I worry about him in wide areas tbh. He drifts inside too much and doesn't see enough of the ball. He's better when he can predominantly stay in the hole off the front.

****ing delighted with essien being at rb. we can win this tonight but we need gerrard and torres on song and playing out of their skin. is the formation 442 or 451?

I expect Chelsea to be defensive tonight and hitting us on the break. We'll have a lot of possession IMO. We need to make it count.

I imagine. Guess none of us'll know until they line up.

Does anybody else feel like they almost did part of their grieving at going out this year last week after JARs **** up ? I've spent the last week feeling like we're already out. For various reasons I just don't think I'll be as devestated if we go out tonight as I would be normally. And yet, As Redrascal said in another thread, I've got the funny feeling we're gonna sneak this tonight.

Oh and forgot Pennant. He played a blinder against Fulham. If he's in the same mood, could rip Cashley Cole to shreds in the last 15 mins.

Well nervous now....
Not watching the pre-match build up, gonna switch on just as the game kicks off.

Yeah, my head. Well into my ale and spliffs now too, so I'm getting really messy

Am into 'brewed ale' too. Don't have any spliffs to help me on atm though but I'll sort that out later on.

feel a bit sick. palms VERY sweaty. I keep washing my hands only for them to clam up again moments later.
