    I'm not saying it's going to be easy but I feel our best form of defense is attack Let them worry about our high tempo game
    Me, I’m either planning a holiday or I’m on one.

      It will be a difficult and probably tight game
      The only gracious way to accept an insult is to ignore it; if you can't ignore it, top it; if you can't top it, laugh at it; if you can't laugh at it, it's probably deserved.

        Hopefully it'll suit us Rafa will go with (IMO) -
        Reina
        Johnson Carra Agger Insua
        Mascher Lucas
        Kuyt Gerrard Benayoun
        Torres

        We'll keep it tight, sit back and invite them on then look to hit them on the break in typical away in Europe fashion.
        We're playing ok mostly lately, Gerrard was better and Torres is smoking so fingers crossed.
        Good result will give us a lift going into Brum away which I think is our toughest remaining game.
        The King was back for a short while. Long live The King.

          I would love it if we went there with the mentality of outscoring them and getting away goals. But it won't happen, we will have Mascher and Lucas holding and our tempo will be sllooooooowwww

                When us playing with a high tempo is a major talking point, that says everything

                      What a ****ing surprise...

                      Alberto Aquilani has been ruled out of Liverpool's Europa League clash with Benfica, manager Rafael Benitez today confirmed.

                      The Italian international sustained an ankle injury in training this morning and won't be with the Reds' squad which flies to Lisbon later today.

                      "He will not be available for this game," said Benitez. "He had a problem with his ankle this morning and we have to fix it.

                      "It doesn't seem too serious but it's the same ankle as before and so we'll have to analyse the situation carefully."

                      Benitez also confirmed defender Martin Kelly will undergo a knee operation today which will rule him out of action for the rest of the season.

                          Its bollocks.

                          I bet Rafa is just bringing out excuses because Aquilani is just not up to it.

                          This new Aussie doctor will hopefully be able to tell us for once and for all if Auqilani will ever be fit to play 2 full 90mins in 1 week

                              Looking like an absolute whopper of a signing.

                                Would have been better to spend 15-20m on an expensive english player at this rate
