Pre-Match: Man City v Liverpool 10/04/18 19:45pm

We had better get RAFA to have a word with the ref prior to kickoff.

Good job we aren't playing Spurs then, Citeh are many things, but they play the game as fair as we do.

City are a great team, but these ties are decided by small things, I believe City lost the tie in that 20 minute spell. No mater how good they're coming back from 3 down with no away goals its something incredibly difficult, I don't see ud losing the tie (even though it could happed) unless we play the worst game of the season combined with an awful refereeing.

It's going to be a nervy game until we score a goal, hopefully it'll be in the first half. 2-2

If EUFA decide that Man City will be easier option in the semi for Barcelona or RM then the ref will obvioulsy make sure City win. It's that simple.

I think they will go 2-0 up, then Mo will dance through like Nijinksy (the ballet dancer not the horse) and make it 2-1.
they will rally late and nick a third to ensure we are absolutely shitting ourselves.

so my plan to mitigate this is;

- 6pm start drinking vodka shots every 15 minutes
- 7pm start slowing down onto magners with ice
- 815pm when City are 2 up, go back to teh vodka, but make it eveyr 7.5 minutes
- 850pm when Mo scores, break out the champagne, with magners chaser
- 945pm when the final whistle goes, slow down and go on the magners
-1030pm call an ambulance

That looks like a well organised plan but I would suggest you arrange someone else to ring the ambulance 

I think we are all missing the point here. They only need to score 3 to get us into extra time. If they score three then we will be nervous as wreck and it's a question of whether we take extra time or not.

So, it not 4 but 3 they need to score without reply. Then it is game on.

As confident as everyone seems, I’m shitting it already.

Who is confident?  All the posts and predictions I'm reading have us losing, but still going through.  Spoiler alert:  We're going to win 3-1 and make a statement heading into the semifinals!!

Be a lot of ambulances and toilet rolls needed tonight

I wonder if Adult pampers are available reading some of the quotes on here.

Everyone wants City to win. Barstewards the lot. No one is pleased that Liverpool played so well and beat Man City. Barstewards.

Everyone is talking about City doing the business outside of lfcreds and no one giving LFC a chance.

hope our bus is well insured...and Im not talking defensive tactics.

I actually think we will win tonight, especially if we get the first goal.

Really?? Everything I've read are saying Citeh need a minor miracle to go through, which is true.

Welcome to everyone hates Scousers!!

Why be arsed? It's better when everyone starts F***ing hating us again, it means we're becoming a threat.

Got a feeling we will be 2-0 in the first half...yesterday I was not too confident but today I feel much better about us...

There's huge pressure on Pep & City to perform & sometimes that can go against you as their Deby game showed..

NB: Team no longer available

Subs will be interesting.

Always found watching liverpool a great laxative,  especially in recent years

Lets just say Salah is not fully fit and cannot start:



We could match them in midfield with above and still break at pace with a fresh Salah coming on to get us our away goal(s).

I reckon Trent in midfield is a possibility but probably in the second half as we are a bit depleted in that position.

Fully expect Salah to start.

Our full backs have it all to do tonight I think. Where Andy didn't have too much of an issue last time he'll be up against Sterling tonight but I think Robbo will have the better of him. I think Sane will be chomping at the bit to have another go at Trent tonight so another big game is needed tonight. My thoughts are a bit negative cos I think we may lose the game tonight but we will score so it's all good. This is their biggest game of the season so far tonight and althought I am a LFC fan you have to take your hat off to them the way they've taken most teams apart this season accept us so they will be going for it so that will make it our game of the season so far also. I'm going 3-2 to them tonight with Salah and Bobby to score for us but I'm hoping the score prediction is reversed to us then we deserve to win the whole competition.

I hope Karius is a bit closer to his goal line but, apart from that, I’d go for the same team.

Quarter Final of the Champions League has been an impressive achievement already I'd say.  To get in the last 4 of Europe's top comp when we started back when there were about 70 teams involved is impressive.

Now that we've got this far I want us to go through this thing without a blemish of a defeat.  I'd take a draw tonight - preferably a score draw with us scoring first.

Irrespective of what happens later - isn't it great to enjoy these butterflies of excitement and anticipation.  Come on you mighty reds.

I think they will go 2-0 up, then Mo will dance through like Nijinksy (the ballet dancer not the horse) and make it 2-1.

I’m a freaking nervous wreck.

I had to do a couple of shots of Jameson last night just to get some sleep.

Going to need another bottle to get through the game I think.

Game starts at 2:45pm here.  Leaving work early hopefully I’ll celebrate and be passed out by 8pm.
