      Everton v Liverpool (1st derby of the season)
      Sep 24, 2008 01:45:35 pm
      Well our performances still haven't been what we're expecting and results haven't been as convincing as we'd like it's time for the first derby of the season where form goes out the window and it's just who wants it more on the day (unless Mark Clattenburg is the ref of course)

      I don't care how we play or by how many we win just as long as we do win. I F***ing hate these cu*ts with a real passion and it's always that much sweeter beating them at Goodison. I expect it to be the usual fast and furious game with Cahill and Arteta poncing around like their life long Evertonians.

      We should be back to full strenght although it'll be interesting which two central midfielders are picked. Personally I think it'll be Stevie and Masch as Xabi won't get the time in this sort of match to pick his passes. First time at Goodison for Torres, what better way then to score. Keane still looking to break his duck, he'd go down as a hero amongst Liverpool fans if he got his first against these cu*ts.

      Come on Reds!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

      Putting personal feelings to one side though, there will be a special rememberance towards Rhys Jones ahead of the game. http://www.lfcreds.com/reds/index.php/topic,9598.0.html

      i agree that the results that we have been getting arnt good enough. but we were saying that before the Manure game were we not? then we just pulled a huge win and a fantastic performance out the bag. I hope it happens again! :P

      So what dya rekon the team will be then.....

      That team will kill the blueshite IMHO. (swap SG out right and Keane in middle if need be).

      Another dogs of war encounter on the cards down the sh*t hole I reckon.

      I hope Skrtel has cahill for breakfast. They'll be trying to float balls in for him to get on the end of no doubt.

      We've got the quality to outplay these lot. Just have to make sure our determination and concentration turns up on the day.

      Play Keane - he will score in this one.

                              Reina
                       Carragher  Skrtel
             Arbeloa                       Dossena
                          Mascherano

            Gerrard      Alonso         Riera
                         
                          Keane
                               Torres

      See no reason to play Kuyt this time round. He's had his fill and needs a "rest". ::)

      If we can take care of their talisman (Cahill) then I think we will be ok 2-1 / 2-0 ish

      Arbeloa-----Agger-----Carragher-----Dossena

      -------------------Mascherano----------------------

      Pennant------------Gerrard-----------------Riera

      ----------------Keane-------Torres-----------------

      Subs: Cavalieri, Skrtel, Benayoun, Kuyt, N'Gog, Alonso, Hyypia

      But i dont think Rafa would leave Dirk out!

      Should be tight, I can see it being a very physical affair, but with Masch in our midfield we should have the better of them.

      Still, just because it's Everton I've gone for a 3-1 hammering in the Prediction League! ;)

      Everton have had no problems scoring this season.

      Whereas we, have.

      Let's hope Saturday is the day we turn it round.

      See no reason to play Kuyt this time round. He's had his fill and needs a "rest". ::)

      This is the team I'd go for.  But Rafa dropping Kuyt isn't gonna happen methinks.  I reckon he's the first name on the teamsheet due to his enormous workrate.  I can see Rafa dropping Keane though and setting a defensive stall with Gerrard behind Torres and Kuyt on the right.

      I've gone for a close 2-1 to us.  I keep thinking Keane is going to score in every next game.  Now I don't expect him to score so he probably will if he plays. ;)

      Hi! going to this one, bein from Ireland i dont get over as much as li like so this is a big one for me. heres my pick....

      ----------------Reina-----------------

      Carragher--Skrtel--Agger--Dossena

      --------------Masch-----------------
      -----Gerrard----------Alonso------

      ---Keane------Torres-----Riera-----


      4-3-3 where gerrard can pull right to push Keane up and Riera dropping back to strengthen midfield if needed! :D

      2-0 to us and Keane to get his goal!

      I agree that the results that we have been getting arnt good enough.

      The results or the performances? IMO the only poor result this season was Stoke.

      Gerrard never has good games in these big fixtures.

      Reckon Keane could make us forget his little drought and make his mark on that number seven shirt.

      Wrong one game he actually seems to turn up for.

      Remember Rafa with his too passionate interview after last seasons derby at Goodison.
