LIVE: Stoke v Liverpool

Where the F**k is Agger?

Said on Radio City he's got an injury mate. Pepe has got a bit of an injury too apparently.

I can't really see any. Unless you're being sarcastic?

I keep forgetting sarcasm doesn't work on email!!

Completely deflated after that.

Just don't believe that we're playing that team against Stoke F***ing City. They may be decent at home but we're Liverpool FFS.

I'd rather go out there and lose 4-3 but give it a go then play the team we're doing and end up with a 0-0 or even losing it 1-0.

I'm hoping Kuyt finally ups it or Ngog finds his scoring boots or else we really are fu**ed here.

One of the only good things to take out of the Reading game was that Degan is actually starting to perform, and for that I think his place in the 11 is justified.

Agree, though if we're going by merit then surely Rafa should have tied up and gagged Kuyt, and locked him in his cellar?

I keep forgetting sarcasm doesn't work on email!!

Haha! I should've known mate.

Anyway.

Getting a shower, getting changed, being concerned before the game.

I hope they F***ing surprise me because right now I'm just not feeling it.

We're becoming a F***ing joke to every other team, Rafa stop dicking around!

Same reaction here, and I'm gutted. I thought we'd have the chance to see Pacheco start, maybe even Amoo and Eccleston.

Give them a chance to prove their worth, plus they'd be unknown quantities to the likes of Stoke, we could have surprised them.

I just hope they don't nick an early goal, I can't see this team chasing the win.

Hope to God I'm wrong.

True, but if we are he may bring on Maxi/Aquilani/Pacheco to change it if that happens.

Disappointed to see Aquilani not starting with Masch, they are having a field day about this on sky sports. Phil Thompson is saying now it looks like he doesn't fancy him. They are saying he has been a complete diaster of a signing.

The teams is full of defenders today don't see how we are going to score.

Haha! I should've known mate.

Anyway.

Getting a shower, getting changed, being concerned before the game.

I hope they f**king surprise me because right now I'm just not feeling it.

Sweating are ye ha ha

Interesting line up, don't know how Dirk and Insua are still getting their game.Glad to see that Degen is further up the field
But a good creative bench, and happy to see that Ecclestone Amoo and Pacheco may be getting in the team sooner rather than later. Come on the Redmen the backlash starts here

Sweating are ye ha ha

Hahaha!!

Might be!!

Stoke will be shitting themselves seeing that line up,come on Rafa change the music FFS,Kuyt,Lucas,Insua, if there was ever a time to change things and bring the youngsters in it is now.

20 million for Aqualani and he can't plat 2 games in a week...... shocking

Forgot to say I know we have a lot of injuries but that has to be one of the worst starting elevens I've ever seen play for Liverpool. I hope I'm proven wrong.

Aquilani played 120 mins 2 and a half days ago, whatcha expect!

The formation would look like 5-4-1 with 3 CBs and 2 wingbacks...I very well remember this formation used against Pompey last season.
Looks defensively strong with a attacking wingbacks(RWB:Degen) and (LWB:Insua).Rafa has tried something new from his tried and tested 4-2-3-1.Lets Hope this works out!!

==============Reina================
=====Carragher===Skrtel===Kyrgiakos=====
Degen=========================Insua
======Mascherano=======Lucas========
Kuyt=========================Aurellio
===============Ngog===============

I guess he will introduce aquillani and maxi in second half!!

sh*te line-up.

Stoke are good - very good, at home.

True, but if we are he may bring on Maxi/Aquilani/Pacheco to change it if that happens.

I know, and it's good, but maybe with a different side we could have been going after them from the off and not need to change our game at all.

Anyway, enough with the negative thoughts from me, it's game on and the players have to do the job.

Huge three points for us, this.

Come on you mighty reds!!

Seeing as you've all made your minds up maybe we should just lock this thread now.

Thank F**k you lot are here and not at the stadium.

Come on you mighty reds!!

Is F***ing right.

About time. The greek is so good in the air. The need is for ngog and Kuyt to score.

TIME TO BELIEVE.
WE ARE LIVERPOOL FC.
NO MATTER WHO WEARS THE RED SHIRT, THERE HAVE TO WEAR IT WITH PRIDE.

Okay, how are we going to score a goal then?
Hopefully I will be proven wrong though.

Seeing as you've all made your minds up maybe we should just lock this thread now.

Thank f**k you lot are here and not at the stadium.

Is f**king right.

Gee, you know what, winning improves confidence, have you never heard of that?
