Liverpool Season 2009-10

[Ramseth]

For a moment, was wondering how the hell can Liverpool suddenly top table within a week ...... oh, oh, pardon me ..... just my wishful subconcious :p

The repercussion and consequence is serious if Liverpool failed to to all these 3 crunch games. It'll two seasons to recover, 1 season to qualify for Europe and 1 season to play in Europe again. There were examples of failures to recover such situations before. Nottingham Forest. Blackburn. Newcastle.

Ipswich Town; Leeds United.

a very good performance against Portsmouth,this morning.
with the return of Gerrard and Torres,and Aqualani slowly adapting to the English's game,we should be able to beat Lille and qualify for the next stage of the Europa League,this coming Friday.

Yeah a resounding 4-1 victory with Torres grabbing a double and also 2 assists, 1 down, 2 more to go this week - Lille and MU to complete the topping.

Lille should be a 90 min victory for pools, hopefully dun stretch till extra-time whatever, not good for the players and also not the condition we want the players ready for MU game.

Any idea what time the MU game KO? 12am sunday?

 

[elephanto]

Glad of the 4-1 win ....

But reading Torres latest 'warnings' & Rafa's quiet resignation, I am mentally prepared for a period of darkness ahead & a whole new era to come.

Given the money reality & ownership wrangle, from now to end of season, anything that happens will be too little too late.

Mark my words, Rafa will leave & Torres too, for Pool to re-coup some cash.

Dunno if it will revert to the Boot Room culture of appointing managers (but what Boot Room remnants left - Sammy Lee? Phil Thomson? Kenny Dalglish? sigh .....) .....

Cheap alternative like Alex Mcleish ?
O'Neil will stay at Aston Villa for sure.

I think only when the Americans are FINALLY ousted can a real new dawn beckon ....

Till then the end of Rafa & Torres has begun .....

Sad. Sad. Sad.

Rearguard very important. Liverpool is one goal down and has no away goal. If Lille just scores one more at Anfield, Liverpool needs to score three. Lille is not Portsmouth.

Rearguard very important............. Lille is not Portsmouth.

True, u dun want to get screwed over again.

True again, Lille is not Portsmouth.They are worse than Portsmouth. C'mon Pool should win this easily.

Alex Mcleish is just the person to fire up the players. No nonsense. Pool doesn't need expensive mistakes.

Its afternoon kickoff in UK so I reckon it will be 8-8.30pm SIN time. Good luck.

Yeah right. Lille has only just qualified for European Champions League. Portsmouth is trying very hard to qualify for English League Championship. Newcastle United is in danger of being knocked out from there by Portsmouth.

 

[Gallego99]

Pool will win even with their hands tied to their backs. No contest!

 

[BlueCat]

Liverpool 3-0 Lille.
hope we can continue with our winning form.
this coming Sunday against Man Utd.

 

[elephanto]

Beating the French League Leader hopefully can send confidence on upward spiral ....

Now for Europa Quarter Finals :-
8 teams: England, Spain, Germany - 2 teams each, Belgium -1,
Portugal - 1

C'mon 'You Never Walk Alone ....'

All you English pitbulls, remember Fulham's amazing ousting of Juventus !

 

[Gallego99]

Pool to win at Old Trafford and Chelsea to finish off the red devil's ambition in the Premier League.

 

[Ramseth]

Liverpool 3-0 Lille.
hope we can continue with our winning form.
this coming Sunday against Man Utd.

This is the showdown. If Liverpool loses, 4th placing hope goes up in smoke. If Manchester United loses, defending title hope goes up in smoke. If draw, both are left in limbo.

As an Arsenal fan, I am rooting for Pool to whack ManUre and Chow$i. The two teams are there for the taking!

draw will not do either party any good....a 3 pts victory is a must and not impossible

Gerrard and a Torres double!

It long overdue since they been scoring on regular basis

 

[Ramseth]

Manchester United 2 Liverpool 1

7 games left in season and any hope of 4th place is gone by now, not even 5th place, if we look at the table now realistically.

4. Tottenham Hotspur - 30 games / 55 points
5. Manchester City - 29 games / 53 points
6. Liverpool - 31 games / 51 points
7. Aston Villa - 29 games / 50 points

Maybe UEFA will come to Pool's rescue again with the winners of the UEFA Cup being allowed into the knock-out rounds of the Champions League next season.
