Benfica v Liverpool | Europa League April 1st 20:05

I'm very nervous for this game, Benfica have been playing really well this season and are looking very strong. We have been playing so up and down I cant be confident that we will beat them. The way we played against Sunderland under normal circumstances I would say Benfica are in for a beating but the way the season has gone I cant be sure, all I can hope is that we bring our "A" game, I cant handle any more loses. 

I can't see anything better than a score draw.

I think this is going to be our hardest game of the season.  At least if we score then even a 2-1 or 3-1 defeat gives us a chance for the second leg.

Liverpool - feel free to surprise me with the result of the season.

I am under no illusions that this will be a tough game- but i believe that we can beat anyone who is put in front of us- on our day!
We will be flowing with confidence after sunday- and rightly so!
A nice early goal would go down well- but an away goal at anytime would be nice!
2-1 Liverpool!

I dont care is the goals are scrappy, tap-ins or own goals- just get that ball in that net!

Looking forward to this one. Love to beat this lot and get Valencia in the next round.

Wait a second. That totally contradicts this previous argument you made against Rafa.

But his tactics have been suspicious all season.It's like doing the right things at the right time.He has made mistakes like Choosing Lucas over Fully Fit Aquilani and still pursuing the combination of two DM's on the Field.Still playing Kuyt who has been Abysmal all season.He should've been dropped long ago but he is still playing

Have to keep the tempo up now, just like the Sunderland game and see it through to the end of the season. Just like we did last season. Shame it's a bit late thats all. Should go through I think 1 -1 away and 2 - 0 at home.

The looked very good against Everton earlyer in the competition think this will be a hard game especially if they attack down the flanks

All the more reason to tonk them 

All of our key players are making a return to form now so a win for me is on the cards ,i'd also go for Aquilani to try and prise a goal ,then late second half ,if we are still one up ,bring Lucas on to bolster our attack,with Glen's pace and Nando and Stevie in form i'm up for this one !

Is the game on ESPN?.

Would F***ing bite your hand off for a score draw here.

Spot on chats. It's crucial we score.

I'm starting to have confidence again in our home form so fully expect that we can beat anyone at Anfield. It's limiting the amount of goals they score on their patch that's important.

Games on Channel Five.

Games on tv3.ie/3e/live but its ROI only

Is the game on ESPN?.

Its also on ten sports.

I think we'll win 1-0.Given the present form of the team the margin could be more than that

Its gonna be on tv here in Brazil too, I wont need streams this time

Cant wait for that, I'm sure we'll have 2 great games and hopefully with the Reds from Liverpool, not Lisboa, winning the tie.

Well its my birthday and as present from the lads I would like to see this one wrapped up before we even get them home, I'm going for a 4-0 victory as long as Rafa starts with the team that put Sunderland to the sword with the exception of Maxi due to being cup tied.

If my plane back isn't delayed then il be able to watch the game

Going for a 1-1 here. Torres to obviously get the away goal

Gutted i'll miss this match, was looking forward to it as well.

Just hope we can play in similar fashion to the Sunderland match and get a good win. Or the next best thing a crucial away goal.

Some of you on here make me piss my pants.

Mourinho, Rafa, Lucas.

We've got a F***ing game in less than 24 hours.

We need to attack this game the same way barcelona approached playing arsenal. Attack them high up the pitch and keep possession. Pity maxi is out for this one. Would like to see benni feature.

Mourinho, Rafa, Lucas.

We've got a f**king game in less than 24 hours.

Aye.

Shocking the game is less then 24 hours away and we have more posts in "Jose Mourinho after Rafa's job" thread then a Europa League Quarter Final pre-match thread. No wonder Anfield has become a library.
