Arsenal v Liverpool - match thread

TBH, I'm nervous about every match, especially huge ones like this. We've always pulled through before, see no reason why we can't do it again.

Where's the confidence gone in everyone? We're favourites fo this no matter what the media says. Masch and Rafa are big losses but it'll make us hungrier!

couldnt have put it better myself.

Pre-match nerves I think, this is a huge match in terms of our title challenge. We could have come into this game with a draw being an acceptable result, even able to lose and stay top.

With our disappointing draws, at least a point is essential today. I still think we'll come out on top though, but we can't afford any mistakes at the back like against Hull. Adebayor and his pals will be far less forgiving!

Grey tops, red shorts. Yeah, okay :

Come on Lucas, show Masch and the rest of the midfield boys that you are serious about taking there place, we all know you can do it lad.

Well pleased with Insua starting, if he performs here then I think he will go on to become our first choice for many years. Hopefully the last few games on the bench for Keane and Agger will make them hungry to perform in this, especially with Torres and Skrtel set to return.

I'm nervous now, but if our midfield performs then we are capable of doing these, jsut remember they have Denilson in midfield!

Lets be Christmas Number 1

Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells, Jingle all the way

Oh what fun is is to see Liverpool win away !!!

Come on you mighty Red Men

Made up that Insua is playing

Make it count today lads, do it for Rafa

2-1 to us.

Gonna watch the game

See you all later..........

Grey tops, red shorts. Yeah, okay :

  I was just thinking the same thing!!

Come on lads!!! Let's do them!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Shame mascherano can't play. He will kick the sh*t out of the gunners.

Hope the boys give Rafa a happy recovering x'mas present after the agony of the kidney stone.

Still optimistic about this game.

from liverpoolfc.tv "Also back on Merseyside is the flu-stricken Javier Mascherano and the injured Andrea Dossena. "
Hopefully that's not the only reason insua is playing and not dossena.

Grey tops, red shorts. Yeah, okay :

Exactly what I was thinking. That is a fashion disaster .

Grey tops, red shorts. Yeah, okay :

I know :. The ref thinks our GREY shorts clash with their WHITE shorts! Do they not know who's on their team!!!!! :

Hm, not that nervous anymore.

Webb has it in for Arsenal apparently.

Our boys look hideous! Rafa is gone for 2 minutes and its disaster already :

Webb has it in for Arsenal apparently.

I always liked him!!!!

We could've just worn our European kits FFS.

Lucas gives away a freekick ... I'm "shocked".

Another one :

I'm confused ... are we in red?

ANOTHER ONE!

Lucas ...

What link are you using for live footy - at the mo the server seems to be down

I see he remembered he has no talent at all.
