Pre-Match: Liverpool v Standard Liege

[dunlop liddell shankly]

2nd leg this Wednesday and I can't bloody wait.

First European game of the season at Anfield.

We HAVE to win on the night, a draw puts them through (except 0-0 which still gives them a chance of penalties) Hopefully it'll be the game that Robbie Keane gets the monkey off his back and puts us through to the group stage. I'd be happy with any win.

Reina, Arbeloa, Carra, Skrtel, Dossena, Pennant, Alonso, Gerrard, Babel, Keane, Torres would be my startin 11. Bench is anybody's guess.

Anfield is always buzzin on European nights, won't be any different this Wednesday.

We ALL know that Liege are going to score first, the commentators are going to be getting all excited and then...

I don't know.... Looks more like Stevie's goal yesterday to me!

POW!

[MsGerrard]

I'm going to this match  so were bound to win,    4-1 for me, I'm feeling very optimistic......

Keane Torres Gerrard & Agger

I think we'll score first, but they'll equalise before half time, then attacking the kop in the second half, they'll run out of steam and we'll hammer 3 past them.

[7-King Kenny-7]

Our performance against Boro was better than the first 2 games and im sure that  against Liege we will see even more of an improvement.

Im going to predict a 4-0 win as I have a very good feeling about this game

Torres 2, Gerrard, Keane

[adammac]

Just want this game won and out of the way. Hope we crush them and I expect the crowd to be really up for this game.

[JD]

Babel on the left.  El Zhar on the right.  Kuyt and Benayoun sitting on their couch at home.

It bloody well does as well. Watch your hearts everyone.

[MsGerrard]

Certainly need to up our game for this one, no leaving it till the 83rd minute 

[robbyr]

we really must do better. lets hope SL become overcome by the atmosphere, our twelth man has a vital role to play

this isnt going to be easy I predict a cagey 1-0

[JD]

F**k that.  I really haven't got the time, or necessary life expectancy for a 'cagey' 1-0.

We best finish this tie in the first half or there will be hell to pay.

Quite right JD............I'm expecting a goal feast, I'm not driving 100 miles to see a bloody 'cagey' 1-0 win

[kenshin]

Babel on the left.  El Zhar on the right.  Kuyt and Benayoun sitting on their couch at home.

as mush as I like to see that, I don't think benitez will  start El Zhar over benayoun or kuyt... but I certainely hope so.   

[Reslivo]

When is Masch back? We need him really.

Javi and Lucas are not available to play this game as they were not put on the squad list by Rafa because of the Olympics.

Fair enough.  Wouldn't have expected them to play anyway.

3-0 win for Liege at the weekend

Standard Liege 3 - 0 KVC Westerlo

Toama got the first goal before Mbokani added 2 more either side of the half-time interval.

They're currently top with two wins out of two just like us, and they have an away game on Friday evening after the trip to Liverpool.

[dunlop liddell shankly]

I've got a feeling that they'll come for the draw and have 11 men behind the ball for the majority of the match. We're gonna need to be creative and inventive if we want to break them down.
