Liverpool vs Benfica match thread

[SimonNo7]

Worse is that I'm watching on my iphone, so that I can "work" at the same time and I thought for sure that the little red blob calmly rounding the keeper was Torres.

I'm sure you're not too bothered which red blob scored.

Jeez, how the hell did that not end up in the back of the net for them, phew!

[Roboklopp]

****in hell. Need be careful

[Imy]

Torres could do with a bit of the ball, anonymous so far

He is as always isolated, the 3 attacking midfielders pretty deep.

**** that was close

[SimonNo7]

1 min of added time.

[red g]

Hey, Rowan and red g Only 4 more to go

wanna double the bet

[Robbie-9-Fowler]

Good half..

[jonymadness]

very quiet there now isn't it.

[SimonNo7]

HT 2-0

Good half, stood our ground when they started well and Kuyt nicked a goal from a corner followed by a classy second from Lucas.

Need to stay focussed second half.

[Imy]

Half time, started very slowly and looked like Benfica were on top form, got the goals luckilly.

Lets hope we don't sit on the lead which the normal trait, lets hope for at least a third to kill the game off.

[Tatterdemalion]

dare i say almost gerrard like

I've had my moments with him, but actually he is a good player who just hasn't been allowed to express himself. Perhaps. Anyway, it's nice to see him off the leasha little.

[Scaramanga]

Either we're knackered or deliberately keeping the tempo slow to conserve energy. I hope its the latter!

[Liverpel]

0 -0 in the Atletico v Valencia match at half time (2-2 agg)

[lickedlollipop]

maybe little bit lucky about 1st goal, but second .... Lucas showed where he came from

Zorba is doing OK and Agger is covering well that LB.

[The Birdman]

So far so good, I've got £5 on 3-1, £5 on Lucas to score in 90 mins and £5 on Johnson to score in 90 mins.
Is it just me or are the commentators on a wind up?? suggesting the ref was wrong to over rule the linesman then when masch got stamped on Pleat the kerb crawler said it was his fault for sliding into the tackle

[Chris]

Havent played great but cant argue with 2-0 can you?

Thankfully common sense was seen to instead of us having a goal disallowed for absolutely nothing. Hopefully we can kill these off soon.
