Liverpool vs Chelsea Post Match Celebration

[DannyMan2006]

I think the linesman was too far away from it to get a good enough look at it to be honest...

He can't not get banned for that though, at least 5 games in my opinion.

You must be ****ing kidding me............... He was one metre away at best. The cunt bottled it, and I'm glad it was late on and not one that cost us the game.

[DannyMan2006]

nah, he was right by the incident. I actually thought he did start flagging for the foul bet then changed his mind... my imagination maybe!

That's only because we got the deserved result. If the God's had of conspired against us again, then everyone would have jumped on the Andy Gray bandwagon again criticising Rafa for not taking Mascherano off earlier, even though we were dominating the game.

Shows the thin line between success and failure. We're going to go through good spells and bad spells. Its the nature of football. Some of the fans on here would do well to excerice a bit of perspective from time to time

Great performance from the boys today. Clearly wanted it more, and Chelsea never looked in the game. Outclassed

The crowd played their part too today. Well in you lot.

Excellent result puts the pressure back onto the Mancs when they probably thought we were going to grind out another draw.

Torres is back.

[Shanks]

Fair play to Rafa today he got his subs spot on today as well as his tactics.

Can't believe he took Torres off again!

The lad was on a hatrick FFS...

Sorry- thought the smilie would have highlighted the sarcasm!

Who cares though- we totally deserved it today and showed that we are one of the best two teams in the league.

[Red_hot]

We deserved to win. They were balls and didn't even look like they wanted to win it.

Sorry! Should have known!

[DannyMan2006]

Still think Villa will come above us Joe King?

Mind I bet that was with you anticapating the Chelsea win?

Come down from your high horse son. We are not the best team in the league but we are better than Villa.

This makes it feel even sweeter.

It is a grudge match, too. None of the elite care to lose their duels, but games between Liverpool and Chelsea have added spice, the way that meetings of Arsenal and Manchester United once did.

There is rivalry and then there are the teams that really don’t like each other. Lampard offers a diplomatic response, but a knowing smile.

‘It is strong, I can’t deny that,’ he admits. ‘The players feel an extra edge. You’ll see it on Sunday. We’ve played them so many times in big games so lots of individual tensions build up. There is always something between me and Xabi Alonso, for instance.’

But you broke his leg.

‘Yes, I know, and it was a foul and I got booked, so I am not trying to plead innocence, but it was a tap, it wasn’t anything nasty; the sort of tackle that happens all the time, both ways. That night, when I heard how it had worked out, I felt very bad and phoned to apologise but he wouldn’t really have it and ever since he has that look in his eye when we meet , and there is always a bit of jostling and shoving.

‘There is respect between the teams, though. Steven Gerrard always says how hard it is to play against us at our place and it is the same up there. Just a sea of red shirts on the pitch at times because they work so hard and put you under so much pressure. They are a horrible lot like that, but Steve? What a fantastic player. I watched him against Everton the other week and it was a complete performance, he was the driving force.

‘The pace he puts into a game is what I love. It can be going along at one tempo and he will just up it, like clicking his fingers.

‘When he was supposed to be coming to Chelsea, I was really excited. We would have been a great partnership and that big question, about playing together, would have been put to bed quite quickly had we worked together day in, day out.’

Also soon to be heading for the knackers yard, Lampard hopes, is the suggestion that Chelsea’s team is a spent force, old men on their last legs, exposed by United at Old Trafford and there for the taking at Anfield, if Liverpool get their act together.

Hahaha. XABI ALONSO!

[Abdul Alhazred]

Yossi coming on was what created the positive movement leading to the goal.

I've always rated him (as a squad player at least)

[andrewces38]

Hahaha. XABI ALONSO!

Did you see that back heel pass come flick..........just pure quality who by the way looks fitter than ever and a real gem this year.
