Liverpool v Man City match thread

[ELNINO 9]

we need a goal scoring/goal creating right sided player

Superb ball by Gerrard to Torres who puts it wide. Lovely pass..

Elano hits the post from a direct freekick. Decent effort.

Reina, the fool!!

Ball comes in from a Gerrard corner and Kuyt turns his head away from an out coming Hart instead of going for the ball. To protect his good looks I imagine.

Ah, this is the entertaining display Rafa promised us....

[MrMichael]

I find it laughable you even think of comparing the two. Kuyt is starting his 20something league game of the season. Nevermind all the extra CL games.

Crouch has started 9 league games.

There's only one answer. Play Crouch at inside right instead of Kuyt.

Oh, hang on......

Seriously though, Kuyt, however he's playing today, is able to fit in this formation that has done pretty well the last few months. Crouch doesn't; comparing the two like above is simply unfair due to the difference in positions they have been played in.

Mascherano does really well to get pass the City defenders and then.......

[livvy145]

Torres

1-0

[the rev leeroy brown]

what a goal to get the record

[Woobus]

Yes go Torres!!!

[livvy145]

Hamann gets a brilliant reception as he warms up.

The fact that Voronin continues to get into match day sixteens may indicate that Rafa feels he has a role to play next season.

I think I'd feel better about Voronin if he wasn't wearing the number 10 shirt.

John Barnes, Michael Owen, Luis Garcia, Andriy Voronin. Somebody should have hid that number the day he signed.

[MrMichael]

Lol, And its not like Torres suffers playing in this formation either

[Finnish_Red]

He makes it look so bloody easy. Amazing.

[livvy145]

Superb volley by Kuyt which brings out an equally good save from Hart.
