Topic: Liverpool 1-1 Man City (2-1): (Gerrard, pen) Half time.....

[stevied]

A City fan in work thinks they're only coming for a 'walk in the park'

They might get chased over the park

[astowell1]

Just like they had 2 weeks ago

Any team who watched us against Bolton would be thinking the same...

[tamadic]

Just like they had 2 weeks ago

I have that feeling, too. If we play like last Sat.

[LanceLink!!!!!]

I've got Manchester City to win at shit odds г10

Manchester City to win in Extra time г10 at 130/1

Manchester City to win on pens г10 at 140/1

Manchester City to qualify at shit odds г10


That's Manchester City fucked then   I never win a bet ever.

Don't want to sound like a pedantic twat but the 130/1 and 140/1 odds are not realistic.

[Jagged Princess]

Just like they had 2 weeks ago

but that was never a penalty, or so he claims.

[ldsn]

My first 'big' game at Anfield and am buzzing right now. Got an exam the next day too but this can't be missed. Row 56 of 305, COME ON REDMEN!

That's the spirit!!!
Hope that's work.
I did that in both Barca vs Mancs CL finals.
Cost me $200 US, but I was so happy.

[frag]

Going on this one, I went to both semi finals against Chelsea and the FA cup semi final in 06. Hopefully good luck continues.

[rewood]

Have missed 1 match this season including friendlies{stoke away cc}
these are the sort of games we should be frothing at the mouth for
2 games at our home against 2 teams from a city we detest
if anyone cant get themselves up for these 2 games christ what are you going for?
just think this time next week we could be looking forward to our 1st visit to the new wembley+
looking forward to a 5th round draw with no mancs in it
AND in a weeks time LUIS is back
Support + Believe!!!!!

 

great post mate, my thoughts exactly. It's  Fucking wembley , it's a final, it's a pot. C'mon red men.

[ShibbyLFC]

all part of the plan 

[astowell1]

Link to those odds? Might get a bit of the 130/1 extra time.

[Brentieke]

Have to admit Im struggling to get too excited about tomorrow.

When the draw was made, I thought it would be a great tie, and the atmosphere tomorrow would be bouncing. Not so sure anymore.

If we do get through, so what? Honestly, so what? It's only the Carling Cup. Im not wuming, it's the truth. It's a trophy you pay little attention to when you're in the hunt for the top prizes.

Sure Id like to go to Wembley, and sure its been too long without a trophy. Ill want us to win as much as anyone tomorrow, but in all honesty, us winning this trophy would prove what? What would it signify?

I know it's been common recently to say that winning any trophy breeds a winning mentality. But does it? I mean, we won the league cup in 1995 and never won anything else under Evans. We won it under Houllier in 2001 and it spurred us on to win the 2 other cups. We lost in the final in Rafa's first season but still won the champions league and fa cups in successive seasons.

I've argued for a while that the Carling Cup is perfect for a big club starved of success (like Chelsea in 05, United the year after that, us in 01) and I stand by that. But I cant lie to myself, Im struggling to get too excited about tomorrow. In the grand scheme of things it means fuck all really bar a nice day out.

I know the old mantra about "Liverpool exists to win trophies" but thats quite clearly bollocks. I wouldnt swap the 06-09 years under Rafa after the FA Cup win for 30 consecutive league cup successes. We could win the carling cup for the next 4 years, but Kenny will be sacked if we're constantly 6th.

Sorry to be a downer, but thats how I feel at the moment. Think the last 2 results have knocked the stuffing out of me to be honest.

[Brentieke]

Must surely be adding a 0 there!

[rednile]

Just got a ticket to the game , Come on REDMEN !

Hope you're not sitting next to me 

[Brentieke]

Hope you're not sitting next to me 

Hahaha!

Thing is, I was really buzzing before the Stoke and the Chelsea games but Im so not up for tomorrow its untrue.

[rob1408]

It might not be the most prestigious of trophies but winning it would result in us being in Europe. There are no guarantees we'll get a Europa spot through our league finish so the Carling cup is quite important.

[GonzalezIsARed]

Is Kompany back for this?

[dazzcarlos]

Is Kompany back for this?

no

[Brentieke]

It might not be the most prestigious of trophies but winning it would result in us being in Europe. There are no guarantees we'll get a Europa spot through our league finish so the Carling cap is quite important.

Know what you mean, but Id rather not be anywhere near the Europa League. I miss watchign us midweek but I sure as shit dont miss that mess of a competition.

[TomDcs]

Hope you're not sitting next to me 

I don't know him at all, but I bet he'll be as excited as anyone if we get through.

Trip to wembley, first trophy since 06, guaranteed place in europe and a much needed boost to confidence before the united game. I think that would be a decent start. I can't wait and really really want to win this.

[NOTBORNIN1982]

Know what you mean, but Id rather not be anywhere near the Europa League. I miss watchign us midweek but I sure as shit dont miss that mess of a competition.

Think of the experience for the kids and the fact our team are in TV every week if you can't get to the game. You'd take winning it all day long, it's just the shit bit in the middle that's, well... shit.

[gazzathered]

Is Kompany back for this?

No still banned,
Think if we can shut them out for the first 20 and start to hit them on the counter then the crowd will keep with us and hopefully were get one.
Concern is if Bellamy can't play then where is the goal going to come from, if we try and defend all game their pick us off with Silva.

[anfieldanfield]

Can't really believe what I am reading here.

"I'm not really up for this"

"I don't want to be in the Europa League"

We're not Barcelona, we haven't won a fucking thing since 2006 and we can't afford to be snobby these days.

Tomorrow night is absolutely massive. I am buzzing. Let's get to Wembley, lift a trophy and guarantee European football next season.

Then onwards and upwards...

All true.

[WraithXx]

my lineup:

                                                 Reina

Carragher             Kyrgiakos                 Skrtel               Konchesky

                                   Spearing             Poulsen

Meireles                                       Cole                                Kuyt
                                     
                                                    Ngog                               

[ConqueredAllOfEurope]

I honestly think if Spearing is fit tomorrow, we have a chance. If he can do a job on Silva like Lucas did (I know hard task) then we should be alright. I don't care if defend all game or if we attack all game, as long as we win or draw, we will be through.

I understand where you're coming from, but one thing to keep in mind is that life is short. there's only so many trophy celebrations any supporter gets to enjoy, why blow off any? if you take into account all the liverpool suporters around the world, statistically speaking the chances of at least one us not living to see another game isn't that slim. i know none of us think we're about to go, but why not just relish and cherish the good things that are in front of us like seeing Liverpool lift a trophy?

[please, I have my reasons for it but...]

Know what you mean, but Id rather not be anywhere near the Europa League. I miss watchign us midweek but I sure as shit dont miss that mess of a competition.

I guess Dortmund in 2001 was a shit experience, eh?

[Smudgester]

The last thing we need tomorrow is for it to go to penalties.

[TSC]

Cardiff it is again then for a final!

[Alonso_The_Assassin]

The nerves are building. Can't wait for this.

[Bendomac]

at least one Gerrard's going to Wembley then

[Brentieke]

I guess Dortmund in 2001 was a shit experience, eh?

Was amazing but its nowhere near the same competition and you know it.
