Pre Match: Liverpool v Aston Villa (15-12-12, 15:00 KO)

Fair enough mate, I don't think that because Villa ....

No problem mate, I'll gladly accept your opinions. I'm sure both of us would very much like to see the club do well except we use different ways and words to express our thoughts while there's no available barometer to gauge the level of our feelings. Coincidentally, we have predicted the same score. Cheers. 

Sahin is better than Allen but if played as AM he will struggle, he must be some player to be named player of the year in 2011. There are many good players in the German League, I've wanted him here since 2011; today he's here but don't use him well. Had he gone to Arsenal he would have be awesome for sure.

This game is all about Gerrard or Allen playing balls through the middle, splitting their central defenders for Suarez.
Their flanks are quite quick so johnson and Enrique will have to be careful but if we control the tempo and the middle early on I can see them losing their way quickly and us bagging a couple of first half goals.
Like to see our flank player cut in and be brave and shoot more.
Going for a 3-0 win but only based upon us starting off pretty strong and hassling them out of settling.

Reina
Johnson Skrtel Agger Enrique
Lucas Sahin
Gerrard
Sterling Suarez Assaidi

Gives Allen some rest, restores Downing to his proper role (folding towels), lets Assaidi get some game time.

Just realised a win today puts us 7th and a point of 5th.

Come on Redmen!!

We are gonna batter these today, just have this glorious feeling today.

C'mon Red Men.

7-0

Should be an easy win here,though we have a habit of making things difficult for ourselves.

Maybe a comfortable 1-0, or 2-0 win with a few anxious moments.

Common u redmen

Got a strong feeling we will get a penalty today

You must be kidding mate.

C'mon Red Men.

7-0

 Don't know about 7-0 Shabs but I too fancy us strong. Seems to me we are on the brink of beginning to believe we're actually getting to be quite good, and that applies to both the players and the fans. 3-0 for me.

You must be kidding mate.

 Yes come on lets keep it sensible FFS. There's a jokes thread somewhere else, keep this on topic 

I don't know what it is but we have to get one eventually, right?

 Well lets look at it. Each football match is contested by two teams. Given our results this season, where we've from 16 matches won 5, drawn 7 and lost 4, it would be reasonable to assume that by and large they've been evenly contested. Our goals for and against would appear to confirm this, where we've scored 22 and conceded 20. Given those numbers it would be fair to assume that we've attacked at least as much as our opponents by and large, infact probably slightly more.

 Given all of that, you would probably expect our penalties for and against to be similar too. You'd be wrong, according to a bloke on Twitter last week we've had five against and haven't been awarded any. Coincidence? You decide.

I want to see Joe Cole start, and yes I am serious.

You mean like start his car? And drive home?

Nah joking mate. Wouldn't mind him being on the bench, but I'm sure if he deserves a start. I do wonder why Suso doesn't get any more games.

I want to see Joe Cole start, and yes I am serious.

me too mate.. don't care if downing starts at LB even (yes i am serious).. got faith in the lad to not only help us keep a clean sheet but score against his old club.

come on red men. three more points. we are reminding everyone in world football that we are going places, not just rebuilding.

Gk: Reina

RB: Johnson

4-0 to the Reds.. and thanks for watching

Reina
Johnson Skrtel Agger Enrique
Lucas Sahin
Gerrard
Sterling Suarez Assaidi

That's an ideal line up federer, be pleased to see that start but unlikely.

I think we will win but i really don't think it'll be this walk in the park that some are predicting.

                  Reina
          Skrtel       Agger
                   Lucas
Johnson                      Enrique
       Shahin.       Gerrard
Sterling.                   Assaidi
                 Suarez
   

 I think Enrique is injured , No?
 
hope sahin starts

I would go with
                   pepe-
robinson skrtle-agger-Johnson
     Lucas-Allen
        sahin
         gerrad
  Sterling   suarez

  Anyway , any team selection by the boss is fine with me...
 hope in a good performance and 3 points


 YNWA

Tomorrow's line-up according to the bib theory:

What is the obsession of playing Downing who is an attacking left winger at left back, sorry I really don't get it.

Feeling confident for a change, I will go for a 5- 0 win for the Reds, not really bothered who scores, as long as we move up the table.
