Liverpool vs Everton (14/4/2012), 12.30 pm, FA Cup semi-final, Pre-match thread

Either ESPN or play on Sunday, right?

What a fricking joke..! Ok - now I have to go to the pub (no great loss) but there are going to be thousnads of kids wanting to watch the game who cant now - the FA should be fricking ashamed of them selfs... This type of game should always be on either BBC or ITV...

ESPN?

FFS, looks like I have to re add it to my package :/

who's the one odd chap voting for an evertone win?

EvertonDan.

Before tonight's game I was having serious doubts.

Now after the win against Blackburn and  our siege mentality I think we can do this.

"Aint no lethargy now ......  Im on the move" to bastardise a Mc Fadden and Whitehead song.

Da Bosses are in town and dey doing da gangsta ting wit der Damien dude.

Im up for this. No one is going to be sitting on their hands now.

Da Big Brothas are watchin you lads.   Go get da Bitters.

Damn, I just realised it's only on EPSN. I'll have to rely on Jeff Stelling and the Gang...

Come on, which funny b***ard voted for an everton win? Own up!

EvertonDan.

Banned. So someone else.

Someone with a constant negative attitude, someone who has no belief..step forward..Um

Erm..well..could be 50% of the forum these days 

Just hope our forwards are half as ruthless as FSG on Saturday!

The Bitter vote ?

Get their IP address J.D. and we'll send the baddies round.

Jones

Johnson
Skrtel
Agger
Enrique

Kuyt
Gerrard
Spearing
Rodriguez

Suarez
Carroll

Think we'll smash em personally!

Pressure to win this game just went up another 50% as just found out i'v got a ticket for the final if we get there! Have been to somne big games over the years but never to a Wembley final. Pleeeeeeaaaaaassssssssee eee lads get the job done!!!!

Jones
Johnson Skrtel Agger Enrique
Kuyt Spearing Gerrard Maxi
Suarez Carroll

The return of the best back 4 in the league!

I was tempted to put in Henderson and Shelvey in midfield with Gerrard on the right, but I think they might be a bit tanked after both put in good performances at Blackburn. Somewhat of a headache for me, as I'd like to see both play. But at the same time, I feel we're probably going to need a holding mid, so Spearing gets the nod.

Maxi deserves to start. I mentioned this in his player thread after Blackburn, but if he starts, I'm certain he'll either get a goal or an assist. Especially if Phil Neville is starting at RB  Maxi's intelligence and craftiness will put him in good positions, especially on Everton's right side. Then, bring on Bellers around the 65th minute to play LW. He'd have a field day against them + tired legs.

Dirk on the right. Man for the big occasion.

And Carroll to start. Should be high on confidence with that winner. Don't care if it was "only Blackburn," that goal *should* really give Andy a boost.

If we play to the best of our ability, we should smash them.

What a bummer at it being on ESPN. I was going to watch it with my Dad on the tele. Oh well, guess we'll have to squeeze up to the computer and stream it.

COYR!!!

I'd like to see TheRedMosquito's team personally. I think Hendo and Jonjo deserve a start after their exceptional peformance against Blackburn, but like you said fatigue could be an issue. The same goes for Bellers too.

Everton aren't good at attacking, which is a problem for them  because they aren't good at defending either.

Who said Everton  , getting well nervous now though!

All that I can say now about this is that my arse is twitching like a fish's mouth.

I will be back in this one tomorrow night, pissed up celebrating our win.

f***in come on lets F***ing have iiiiit!!!!!

can't believe there is only 4 pages FFS its an FA Cup semi, at Anfield south against the bitters? come on red men smash em!!!

Well I could study tomorrow...
Or head to my dad's as he has ESPN.









Boom!
F**k you study I'm off to my old man's.

 Well am I the lucky one it is on Sky here so here is to another good win over Everton,sod it just win any way ay all.

 Who the hell has voted for an Everton win,BAN the b***ard from LFCREDS I say.

Maxi should start. Feeling a lot less nervous than I was. We definitely needed that win against Blackburn.
My main worry is Jelavic , as Kenny said , he's still a bit of an unknown quantity. What is apparent is , he knows where the goal is and has given them a lift.
Whoever decided not to sign a striker in January needs sacking.
Oh , forgot he has been !!

We'll win this. Comfortably. Brad Jones is gonna be immense in goal. Downing is gonna replicate CC final form only this time to cap it with a goal. Luis will be smashing and ofcourse Gerrad will rip then a new one. Liverpool 5-0 Evertones. FAITH
