Champions League QF/SF Draw (Reds get Chel$ki)

Was thinking about the Masch suspension. Who do you guys think Rafa will opt for, will we see Lucas slot into Xabi's place and Xabi drop into the DM role?? Or will we see Gerard and Xabi in the centre with Kuyt and Torres up front and Benayoun on the right. Personally I would like to see the second option we are at home and need to grab some sort of an advantage so a more attacking approach would be welcome. But then on the other hand we had Lucas against the Mancs and slotted 4, so I really dont know what will happen??

Lucas will play for sure as a DM.The lad has grown in confidence over the past few games & I think he can be trusted for the job.Do you think Kuyt & Torres upfront is a more potent partnership than Gerrard & F9T?

I think it will be a straight swap with Masch out and Lucas in. I am sure Spearing will be waiting on the bench hoping to get 10-15 showing. Also I would be shocked if Kuyt isn't playing on the right and Riera on the left simply to track their full-backs when they go on a attack.

Big thing is away goal, we give up one away goal it is going to make things a lot harder for us like last year.

I never suggested that the Kuyt and Torres was more potent than the Gerrard and Torres partnership. My point is that in order for Gerrard to get that spaceto freelance he has been reliant on Masch and Alonso to hold the space behind him. Given that it is a Euro tie I am in two minds really on how the game will be approached as of late we have been putting them away but surely we must apply a certain degree of caution and ensure we do not concede that away goal.

We may concede an away goal, but it should be 4 - 1. I don't think Chelsea will manage to beat us 3 - 0 at Bridge

We shouldn't fear anyone chelsea are scared of us because of our record in the champions league against anyone not just them.

Im sure we will give them a good run for their money. As long as nobody gets injured during the International break I think we will be fine, We should defiantly go all out at Anfield and try and win 3/4 - 0 then it makes the away leg just a slight bit easier

why be so downbeat its time for revenge for the last time they beat us!!! final here we come ;-)

Too Right!  Bring it on! We Fear No-One

I was just wondering who furgescum had to suck off to get the draw against porto and then Arsenal or Villareal.Im not worried we will beat the Scum come the final anyway.

   Just realised, if when we play our second leg at home (Semi final 6th May), I will be in mid-air on my way home from my holidays.  Might have to have a word with the pilot to give us a shout on the intercom with any scores 

Sure he will Smiggs , just flash a leg. .  What if it's a woman, i dont know

He can have more than a flash of me leg if he keeps me updated on the scoreline
