Heem!! I think the heading of this thread is over rated like the England football team. I guess you will have to change it after this weekend. :eek:

Hello Socka, what's the point of Pool thrashing a team in one game and then the next game pulak sendiri kena thrash?? Just like Jekyl & Hyde story......

mana ada consistent, kadang-kadang menang, kadang-kadang kalah...

Anyway last week Pool won 4-0 and this weekend will be the opposite.

[KoChun]

Pool won 4-0 and this weekend will be the opposite.

Manu 0-4? :unsure:

[elvin]

wah....looks like the party have started earlier!!! Hope nobody missed me:o love this kind of games...hmmm delicious!!..old enemies meet again...

Bring on ronaldo, tevez, rooney or whoever you got on the pitch! Last season was very lucky for MU with a fluke goal by o' shea. Not this time! Even we dont have xabi and agger we r still strong!!!

My predictions for this match: liverpool-2 mu-1


Chelsea-1 Arse-0

Feel free to rebutt

Oh yes, please change the heading. Confirmed that Pool is second best to Man Utd.... :p

Err!! The correct score is Pool 0 Man Utd 1.

Yeah, Pool are butted again by Man Utd - two years in a row in Anfield. so the results says it all. Man Utd is better that Pool even when they play away in Anfield. Do I need to say more.

We only need to bring out Tevez this time to demolish Pool. No need o'shea, we rested him. So are u saying that MU is lucky this time?? :p Just admit it that MU is still better than Pool..:eek:

I guess this thread will be silent for the next week......

Cheers to Pool fans, have a Carlsberg or Heineken on the house. James will sponsor the heineken. No need to worry, still got the Carling Cup to look forward to next week. It is only vs Chelsea, sure can beat them right??

Wooooohoooooooooooooooooooo!!! HIDUP MAN UTD!!

elvin all your prediction gone hairwire la
Liverpool prediction salah, arsenal vs chelsea prediction also salah :p

[elvin]

Congrats to MU! Well done to the back four they have contained the players really well leaving no room for our strikers. No doubt its a clear win for MU and thanks to fergie for his shrewd tactics playing defensively & capitalizing on the counter attack. We only have our defending and poor finishing to blame. 2-3 players were behind reina and unmarked!!:mad: Torres totally off target:crying:

Arbeloa was pure crap. Wonder why he get more starts than some of the established players. Rafa waited too long to bring in babel and riise(poor) was never the player he used to be anymore. Hope the owners got the cue now and have a good meeting with Rafa and bring in some good players to replace some poor ones.:p

We'll be back..........:crying:

[socka]

Agree with Elvin. Football game is won when you take your chances. Liverpool made so many attempts but could not convert. Manure made two chances and converted one. They deserved to win.

[jerrychoo2004]

yes one mistake is to use harry Kewell and not Ryan Babel
Ryan Babel looks much more lively
another thing is Kuyt, i don believe he is good enough
he may work hard but he does not contribute much to the team and he don score that much, Crouch is a better choice for me

Yeah, Elvin & Socka. Thanks for agreeing that the best team won last night (to be precise twice in a row at Anfield). Couldn't agree with you more that MU back four did well and contained pool from penetrating even to rescue vander sar's blunders.

Agree with jerry that babel is more lively player, I wonder why babel did not start instead of Kewell.

I would say the ref handled the high profile match pretty well. No untowards incident happened nor any serious injuries. Only minor shoving around only compared to Ars vs Chelski game. Terry is injured now, due to that, Gallas scored in the stoppage time of 1st half.

Looks like Pool will have a good chance to beat Chelsea in the Carling Cup.

Will be supporting pool to win on that night.

So what will happen to Rafa now?? Will he be given the boot by the American owners.

I think one reason why Rafa doesnt not start wik Babel is that, Babel doesn;t come back to defend much. The way Rafa has played his team is to expact the two wingers to retreat and defend.

I think the owners will not sack Rafa, could be too costly

[jstanly]

Another false dawn for Rafa's Reds
TEAMtalk's Graham Shaw feels Liverpool's latest defeat to Manchester United shows exactly why they will not challenge for the Premier League.

Want to know why Liverpool haven't won the title in 17 years? Sunday afternoon had the answer in a nutshell.

Once again any dreams of finally ending that long wait were put into stark focus as they failed miserably on the big occasion.

Senor Rafa Benitez now has one solitary point from 21 against his team's most bitter rivals - reigning champions Manchester United. He also has just four wins from 21 against United, Arsenal and Chelsea. The games that really matter.

So any delusions of being ready to take what they perceive to be their rightful place on the throne can only be seen as flattery of the most deceptive kind.

In recent seasons Liverpool have been exposed as domestic football's equivalent of flat-track bullies, plenty good enough to crush inferior opposition but found wanting against the big guns.

In days gone by you could just about win a title by beating the rest, but now that just won't cut it.

In a Premier League where even one defeat can be catastrophic the mini-league between the "top four" is often now what decides who eventually takes the glory.

The infuriating thing for Tom, George and the Anfield faithful is that the script on Sunday afternoon was so predictable. Territorial advantage, domination in terms of efforts on goal - and yet still another damaging defeat.

Rafa's decision to start with Harry Kewell and Dirk Kuyt proved a disaster while Peter Crouch and Ryan Babel waited impatiently in the wings.

After years of being ravaged by injury Kewell doesn't have the pace or confidence to trouble a top-line defence. Babel on the other hand does.

Kuyt, while industrious and willing, doesn't have the guile or physical presence to cut it at the very top level. Crouch, at least, has the latter.

By the time he did introduce the pair of them it was too late, the writing was already on the wall.

Just as they did last March, Liverpool took their eye off the ball for one second - one fatal second.

Then it was John O'Shea profiting, this time it was Carlos Tevez. Déjà vu, groundhog day. It was all so strikingly similar.

You can't deny that Benitez has bought some top players to Anfield - nobody can deny the quality of the likes of Fernando Torres or Javier Mascherano.

But despite the big-money buys, and the local backbone and brilliance provided by Steven Gerrard and Jamie Carragher, there still appears to be an ingredient missing.

In some cases that can be provided by just one man - just remember that Sir Alex Ferguson searched six long years for the promised land before stumbling across one Eric Cantona.

Not many managers get that long these days to come up with the goods, and the goods at Anfield right now is top spot in English football.

Yes Benitez delivered the Champions League amid those amazing scenes in Istanbul in the summer of 2005. But right now that seems a distant memory.

There was a time when Liverpool fans expected title glory, almost like a divine right. Now for some it must seem like an impossible dream.

Manchester United waited 26 years to return to the summit - Liverpool have now waited 17. The similarities are striking - the sporadic brilliance, infuriating inconsistency and ability to come up short when it really matters.

With every passing year it gets harder - former glories weigh as heavy as an albatross.

Will Rafa be the man to finally end the drought. Right now I wouldn't bet on it. Would you?


Is he a Liverpool fan or what?

[jerrychoo2004]

i duno if he is a Liverpool fan or not...but he is telling the facts :)

[elvin]

Do agree on some of the points he brought up. We did not rise on the occasion when it matters most especially important games against the league leaders. Kuyt was ineefective and i was shocked to see him lineup for the big match. I would expect crouch or voronin at least but not kuyt because he is just under-par and his style is just not suitable for the team. I would expect gerrard to play behind torres and finnan on the right back. No, not arbeloa for this kind of games! he was a total crap.

We did created chances but at times the self belief in some players were just too obvious. Especially Riise and Arbeloa who gives away possesion of the ball too easily.

To add on to that, Rafa's position is in doubt at the moment. I think he will be very frustrated because no money left for him to buy anymore new players. We may have to let mascherano go.:confused: I think ppl have forgotten that we do have 1 or 2 big money signings BUT we spend too little money to bulid up the squad. We spend 40 million but recouped 20 million back. Versus other teams that spend a lot of money in buying and nurturing young talents like mu, arsenal and chelsea and they do not come cheap.

To make matters worse, the subprime mortgage thingy in the US has hit the american owners real bad that they have to scrap the 70k seater stadium and settle for a smaller one and no CASH TRANSFER for rafa:confused: Rafa was even asked by the owners whther he considered resigning...in other words...he was asked to RESIGN!

At some point of time, maybe the board members have thought why they choose the americans not the arabians to buy the club. With this kind of quality in the squad we can forget abt contending for the title.

Rough times ahead for Liverpool:crying:

[jerrychoo2004]

err i thought Liverpool is used to it all these years not becoming EPL champion?
they will not be champions this year but i am sure getting in the top 4 is not impossible for them
as for Champions League glory, it will be very hard for them too to get it this year, but who knows :)

[jstanly]

Take it easy Elvin. :D

There is always the next game to look forward to. I hope Pool can thrash Chelsea in the Quaterfinals of the Carling Cup tomorrow nite.

Cheers!!

[jerrychoo2004]

too bad for Liverpool.....but on the bright side there is always next year ;)

[elvin]

On the other hand i do hope they would not get anything this year. Just lay low and play on with their remaining games. Stop making empty promises and frontpage headlines...the american owners should start by investing their own money into the club...take the glazers for example...they gave what fergie wanted...

I think the fans would not want this kind of owners and will make their voice be heard...

Not ALL American owners are the same. Just that Pool share holders should have choosen the right one..

Well Pool's fans power is strong enough to rock the management team... they should send a message to the new owners.

By the way, congrats for last night 4-1 win over Portsmouth.

hello guys and girls....

well i was away for sometime and sorry for the late entry... hhahaha

well reds are doing good but the luck need to change and hope we do the best in coming times and year... we started the season good and we had pressure on all the big teams... we just ran out of luck and we had few serious injuries in the main tean furthermore with the talk of Rafa leaving...Mmmmmmm tht's pretty much round it up...

well the weekend with Mu game was good and we had missed many chances and hope..we will bounce baack...

So the carling cup tie we lost... yet we played a good game with the 2 team.. showing some good improvement....

Now.. our main concern would be the PremierShip( saw the trashing on to portsmouth) and also the European cup again if possible,... with Inter as our next target....

I never give up.//// tht's why we never walk alone ......

So keep faith guys... for all those liverpool fans,.... the day will come for us to lift the trophy.....sooner or later.....

watched the game with portsmouth...nothing to shout about...of course its very rare that rafa put on his best 11. But at some point of the game, we looked quite complacent and not hungry for goal jus moving the ball around even we are leading 2-1. Luckily torres saved the day.

By the way...its that jersey for real or photoshop? looks like a custom made home jersey! Cheers to all football fans out there and merry christmas!:laugh:

Yes, Pool were a bit lucky but all team including the so called grea Man U have also been lucky to get 3 point before. thats football.

errr correction....not so called...they are great and thats the truth :) !!!

[elvin]

i think since the beginning of the season we were unlucky and this is the first time that we were lucky. Against Chelsea, the ref did not award a obvious penalty, against Reading, another 3 obvious penalty were not given. Fergie has been lucky in many occasions plus at the moment they are playing really well. Not evryone can be lucky.

[elvin]

that's the end of it...after reading the results from the paper that Pools drew with wigan...we can say that the title chase for this season is over. The whole camp is in a big pile of mess. Management dispute with the owners, managers and players dispute...players not getting enough games..total disharmony! Which fan can actually swallow that we have a proven and quality player like mascherano but we have to let him go because we cant afford 17mil quids!

David moores and rick parry have betrayed the loyal Kops by selling our club to ppl who dont have the club interest and only interested in making money.. im sure they make a lot of money from the deal.

I would like to see how we end but at the moment Rafa will have full support from the Kop because he's the one to put his job in line of fire by coming head to head with the owners.

[jerrychoo2004]

yup this is not a good year again for liverpool
morale must be very low after the draw
and don't foresee them going far in the Champions league as well

in my opinion Rafael should stop changing his team so much
he should always stick to his best 11 unless they really need a break
and stop using Harry Kewell and Kuyt,
i just don't think they are any good at the moment,
crouch and torres will be able to break down defenses
for god sake use ryan babel, kick that harry kewell out atm
another good plan will be to chunk out 35M to buy Berbatov
but i don't think Liverpool has the $$

i think we are poor at the left and right wings. Kewell is playing jekyl and hyde. Look at him when he played at th MU match. His face is like saying "pls dun pass to me" and evading here and there. But in some mathces he's quite decent. Not saying good but just decent. Bennayoun is little bit lightweight(no offense jerry) which doesnt cut out when going head to head with big-sized defenders. Kuyt....no comment...never liked him at all...

35M for berbatov???...Now we don even have a proper CD(Arbeloa playing stop gap here) how to buy a striker? I would say secure maschy and buy ezequiel garay...comes to about 25M total? Then use whoever we have... more sensible leh...

[jerrychoo2004]

draw with Luton? :h:
ok la nvm at least got chance to play at Anfield next ;)

well i am sure we have our bad times and good times... soon will be doing some big time changes in team.. especially when the Transfer window.. is now on going....

As for jersey.. well it true enough to be the reds fan and i mean DIE hard fan,,,, will always be till who ever comes and goes.. WE never walk Alone...

I have to admit that we are playing like sh*t now. I am totally against rotating the players on a constant basis. Rotation is fine in the early part of the season as we have to determine our best 11. If we keep on rotating, the players will not be used to playing with eachother. If you have watched the past few games, we cant event put more than 4 decent passes a game! Liverpool used to be the masters of the passing game!

I am not expecting any major buys in this transfer window. In January you either get semi decent players or have to break the bank to get decent players. We dont need semi decent players (we have enough of them in the squad) and we cant afford to break the bank.

Its easy to blame Messrs Gillet and Hicks for not willing to pour more funds into the club, but part of the blame should also be on David Moores and family who were not interested to give up part control to millionaire Steve Morgan who is fan of this club and who was willing to pump in money way earlier. Its time everyone in the club (owners, management, manager,coaching staff, players and fans) take a hard look and admit that there is something seriously wrong with the club and bite the bullet to take immediate action. Short term solution using the January transfer window will NOT work. This season has shown that we are still way behind the likes of Arsenal and Man u Slightly behind Chelski and just above the second tier teams (Man City, Everton etc). This is not Liverpool fc. WE have to admit our weakness before we can change. YNWA.

[jerrychoo2004]

Skrtel is on a move to Liverpool for EUr 6.5M
i dunno how he played but 6.5M for a Slovakia defender
he must be quite highly rated ;)

[KoChun]

Jerry, do you know Vidic before he moved to Man Utd?

[jerrychoo2004]

nope i have no diea about vidic before that
well i also dunno skrtel so maybe he will be very good?
good luck lor ;)

[Mac24]

I am sure all the managers wants the best for the Team.. especially with how liverpool playing now.. yeah... pretty much shaky and sh*t game...

the have to stop rotating the players and stick to best 11 and go on winning all the games for the rest of the season if they were to have some funds again next season....
looking at the status... i have strong feelings... abt the team... but my trust and belief is still there... they can pull it out if they have the force and ability to do it....

yeah u right thy need several good defenders to hold the game... just that rotation...is pulling our game apart...

we need seriously think about tht in our next game... especially with half way through of the season....

well hope all works well for Our Anfield guys...

[jerrychoo2004]

oh well u guys know the result Liverfool 1-1 draw again
while MAN U had a 6-0 bashing of Newcastle..TOTAL PAWNAGE!!!!!!!! :laugh:

[jerrychoo2004]

hehehe any liverpool fans wanna come over to MAN U after the 2-2 draw last night? :laugh:

[elvin]

haha finally the kop has made their voice heard..... i just wanna see how much can the americans defend for themselves now.... its a total joke and damn hillarious.. Never once that anfield got into this kind of limelight... watching the 2 owners are funnier than reading the comic section of the newspaper.

And finally our captain marvel Stevie G also blasted the comedy that is happening off field and affecting their game. Everyday there seems to be new story...what lah... pls lah ask the americans to go back and manage american football better lah...EPL is not for them:mad:

Reds in refinancing blow - Report
Tue 22 Jan, 10:00 AM


Liverpool could be plunged into fresh turmoil amid reports their American owners have suffered a setback in their refinancing plans.Already destabilised by speculation that George Gillett and Tom Hicks are considering selling the club, reports have emerged that the American duo's plans to refinance their loan have been hit.

The pair are understood to be struggling to secure the loan they require to pay back the original loan with which they bought the club last February.

The Daily Telegraph claims that the 'refinancing deal is on the verge of collapse' while The Times states that 'sources in the City believe that the Americans' regime is crumbling by the day'.

The news will not be met with disappointment by the club's supporters who made their antipathy with the American regime loud and clear during Monday's 2-2 draw with Aston Villa.

If Hicks and Gillett are thwarted in their plans, then the pair may conclude they have no choice but to sell their club to the Dubai-based Dubai International Capital (DIC) group.

The Telegraph reports "Time is running out for the Americans to conclude the loan agreement".

"Contrary to reports that they had until the end of February to sign the deal, it is now understood their one-year loan with RBS expires in just under two weeks."

Speculation was rife at the weekend that DIC had formally bid £500m for the Anfield club.

However, it is now believed that the offer was informal and only in the region of £300m - prompting Hicks to issue a defiant statement announcing he had no intention of selling his stake.

DIC, however, will not launch a formal offer until they have held talks with RBS but Hicks has refused to grant DIC permission to talk to the bank until any refinancing deal is completed.

Should the refinancing collapse, then DIC - run by Liverpool fan Sameer Al Ansari - would be in a position to move in.

[Alkapocino]

haha liverpool managed a draw with chelsea
you guys could have win it, chelsea played so badly

Pool knocked out by Barnsley?? Barnsley who??? :D

This is a total embarrassment?? What happen lar Pool?:p

Barnsley was just a warm up session....... See what happened this morning?! 2-0 babe! Kyut and Gerard....well done! Inter...soli...muahahahahaaaa....:p

[dcrusader]

nothing to shout about...
even playing against 10-men Inter, Reds were hardly impressive in the first half...:amazed:
same old boring style, pump air ball into the box and hope for the best....:wacko:

[jerrychoo2004]

haha a win is a win
i must congrat liverpool fans as they already have half a foot in the quarter finals of the Champions League

[KoChun]

Inter? Who??

[jstanly]

Inter? Who??

Wah Rafa memang jaguh Euro??

[fishboy]

Rafa for England team manager

[lynnee]

Goodness me, you people still talking about Raba Raba...and still being emotional about past glories. Man up...Raba is not EPL material. Champions league is no level playing field. Anyway, let's see how Liverfool defend its 2-0 lead at Inter's ground and with 11 players.

Wow, Raba for England post...??? Must be over ambitious.

Come on, win the EPL first, then talk, otherwise it's what we call tin kosong. So, Liverfool will never walk alone but they will always walk behind Man U and Arse-nal. No money and yet want to build a new stadium.

Losing to Barnsley in the FA Cup...pathetic...main excuse...resting players for Champions League...but winning the tie against Inter playing with 10 men.

Ya, right...says jstantly that Raba...oops...Rafa is jaguh Euro. Well said...so his focus will always be UCL. Wake up, fans from the End-field, that goes to show he will never win the EPL for you guys.

Any manager can win the UCL given the time, money and players ( remember Leeds United who went all the way to the semi-final) but not any ananger can win UCL and EPL. Jose 'the moaner' Mourinhno didn't, Arsene 'the sore loser' Wenger didn't, not yet let alone Raba Pennybetek.

Arse-nal possesses the best passing team and it will be a matter of time Arsene will land the UCL. SAF had won in 1999 and he may land another one soon. Raba may capture it again but with current team, I doubt it. So Raba, concentrate on building a team to challenge for 2009 titles before his head land on the chopping board.

Ha ha ha, welcome to the Emirates stadium and be circumcised or welcome to the theatre of dreams where you will have nightmares after nightmares. Remain in End-field and you will always walk behind the Red Devils and the Gunners.

Stop emotionalising past glories and remember 1990. All the very best to the Kop.

GOOD LUCK, LE' POOL...... LET'S MAKE IT 4 OUT OF 4 FOR EPL TEAMS...:)

I am tempted to wish the same to Chelskis but.... HEY.... there's no thread nor support for that 2.5-seasons wonder team... hehehehe..... :laugh:

Yes, Pool got knocked out of the cup in the round of 16th. Are Manure an Chelski getting a cup for finishing loosing quaterfinalist. SAF must have a lot of these cups at home. Lets not talk about the past but lets talk about the 1990s which is so present!

Rafa may not have won the EPL, but I am sure that all football fans remember that SAF won the league and all cups in the first year in charge of Manure.

[lynnee]

You do not want to talk about the past but talk about 1990. Goodness, are you kidding, 1990 is so present? May I offer you a calculator? You must have hailed from the era of 1990 but I doubt it. 1990 is the past and 1990 is a long way...18 years ago. That's why they always want to talk about 1990, so emotional, so touching, my tears are rolling.A baby born in 1990 will be doing A-Levels this year, mind you. Let's not talk about the past, let's talk about 2006-2007. Now, that is present.

Rafa may not have won the EPL, but I am sure that all football fans remember that SAF and Man U inflicted a demolition, decimation and a Grand Slam massacre of Liverfool team at the theatre of dreams (nightmares to Liverfool) last Sunday. Simply outclassed, outplayed. Torres checked, Gerrard checked, Babel (or Bebel, membebel)...checked and substituted.

Pepe 'Sudah Tidur Lena' (Reina) butter fingers goalie terrorised by the double R. And Brown of all people to score.

One more thing, all Liverfool fans will argue that the referee made a mistke expelling Javier 'the gangster' (march like a rhino) Mascherano. Oh please, billions of eyes saw him hackling the referee even after his team-mates tried to pull him away. Like ex-Liverfool player, McMahon said during the interview that it was a stupid thing to do to argue or question the referee. Better still, Mr. Raba Raba said he didn't say anything. From the TV set, only a blind can't see his lips muttering away and his aggressive facial expression against the referee.

A sore losing team with a sore loser player. Now, all Liverfool fans will say they will win the Champions League Cup. Aw man, old news, that's what they will be focussing on for many years to come as EPL will continue to elude them. Come on, try to qualify for Champions League automatically la rather than the play-offs. Seems that they have to contend with their neighbour who is breathing down their neck for a place in CL.

Run down Endfield library and get hold of Bill Shankly's or Bob Paisley's manual/journal. Probably it's covered with dust as nobody touched it. Perhaps, Raba Raba can learn a thing or two from these two great managers. Talking about the past, this is what Liverfool canand should do. SAF could have searched for Sir Matt Busby's journal and learned his pattern of excellence. That's why SMB's Busby Babes were emulated by SAF with the emergence Fergie's Fledglings. Anyway,talking about the present, replace Benitez and get a new set of defenders. Oh ya, one final thing, send the two clowns, Hicks and Gillett back to Uncle Sam for they know nuts about soccer.

[jerrychoo2004]

haha....Liverpool will face Arsenal 3 times soon....can they manage it?
btw is saw a banner at last sunday match which shows


Sir Alex Ferguson
Sir Matt Busby
Bill Shankly
Bob Paisley
" Spot The Difference?"

:laugh:

[lynnee]

Banner well spotted.

Spot the difference? I bet they do.

Only a British can bring the EPL trophy back to Endfield...oops, sorry, I mean Anfield...nanti orang cakap panggil nama pulak & tak boleh tahan.

Again...spot the difference?

Raba...oops...I mean Rafa, only Cup and Spanish material. At least Wenger outshines him.

Enough said.

God saves the Queen...err I mean Liverfool. And Raba's job.

[jerrychoo2004]

gratz to liverpool

great job liverpool to get a win over blackburn,.....looks like u guys still managed to keep the champions league hopes alive :)

[elvin]

great job liverpool to get a win over blackburn,.....looks like u guys still managed to keep the champions league hopes alive :)

yeah this is the sort of spirit and flow that they should play. Persistent and hardwork. gerrards goal is beautifully crafted and cooly dispatched for his 300th appearance for the club. Voronin! Cayalah...baru masuk pun dapat goal...goal yang berbaloi even if it breaks his leg. HAHA!

[lynnee]

Eh guys, they should have played this way from the beginning of the season, not when there are 4 more games left...ya ya ya...qualifying for the Champions League through play offs again.

Fighting for a CL place, yawn....

Guess they have to as their neighbours are breathing down their neck.

Anyway, MU on pole position cruising to the 'chequered flag'. First it was the demolition of Liverfool and then the out-gunning of the Goners. Next the collapsing of Stamford Bridge. Imagine, Wigan snatching a draw at the Bridge.Steve Bruce learned a thing or two from his mentor.

[lynnee]

Excuse me, short and sweet? Do you sit down on your couch each week-end and watch EPL for at least 90 mins? If yes, why do you want me to cut it short?

You may not have the time...fair enough. Others may have the time especially what I post is towards the betterment of football.

You are a Liverfool fan??? No wonder.:blink:

I am a EPL fan. Tell the truth and the truth shall set you free. :amused:

Also, you have the right to post your story either long or short. If you choose to post it short, that's your CHOICE.This is a democratic country.

It's like telling MU, 'Eh, MU, please stop playing well la, we don't have the time to watch you win all the time'. Why don't we say, 'Eh, Liverfool, get out of the rut la, we want you to play better la.'

Wonder if you people have any genuine passion for EPL.

Hallo....do you people out there watch First Edition, Football Crazy or Premier League Preview???

Enough said.

wish you were right but sadly liverpool suffered another setback from an owngoal...dahlah last minute! But we were the better team and more chances. Peter Cech is in incredible form like brad friedel.

But i think barca will not advance to the finals as they are doing quite poorly in their league...

Jerry..how many points more to overtake u in the fantasy league???:laugh:

Don't shed crocodile tears lah.... (laaa.... buaya poonn nangis if repeatedly see JA Riise's own goal...hehehehe...:laugh:)

But that's life - Pool need pick itself up and go on to win the game...

[jerrychoo2004]

nah u will not overtake me in the fantasy league elvin

better luck next year guys

[fishboy]

better luck next year guys

any one wants a "RIISE"???

[elvin]

Season is close for The Reds. Benitez will stay and bring in new players and hopefully the Barry and Bentley deal will go thru. That means riise, crouch, pennant and few others will be sold off. Hopefully next year we can turn those big number of draws into wins next season. Cheers! we will just get better next season:)

Yup season is over. Agree with Elvin that Pool had one too many draws in the EPL this season. Losses were alright as we kept them low and even comparable to the likes of Man U and Chelsea. Man U are playing fantastic football with Ronaldo in top form and they deserve to be where they are today. Watched the CL semis and it was painful. Chelsea played very well (esp in the 1st half) and we were beaten by a better team that night. We tried to come back but Drogba's goal in extra time was fantastic and nothing we could do about it. Still love this team. YNWA

cheer up socka...we cannot always win against chelsea isn't it? 4 champion league games against chelsea and 3 wins is not bad at all. Ok..it does make jose mourinho look bad but avram grant deserve the credit for holding the team together this season cos at one point it looks like the whole team is breaking up(or is this just a trick up his sleeves to make them look weak) Rafa was right when he said "4 strongest team in europe is currently playing in EPL!!"

May the best team win the league and CL! oh btw, i watched the game against everton and was laughing at nani for sending off. 2 attempts to nut a guy in the groin is so unprofessional. I guess Fergie must have slapped him silly in the dressing room. Embarrasing stuff.

This one I agree. Man U improves by learning from stupid mistakes like this one.
