I still can't bare to see this thread disappear.  Too many wonderful memories!!

Lots of goals JK3.  You just need to pay attention!

Shocking developments at Anfield this past week, and I feel bitterly let down by Torres.  He isn't to blame for most of the woes of the past two seasons, but his troubles surely added significantly to the poor overall performance of the team.  And yet, I never heard complaints from Reds fans while he struggled for form this season or to recover from injuries last season,   Then he professes his intent to stay, and cuts out for Chelski a few months later when the new owners and King Kenny are just beginning to turn things around.  I guess if he wanted out, let him go, and I'm happy with the new signings!

Go Reds!!

What a game it was!!!

I hear it got a bit noisy at Anfield Sunday.  

Top result yesterday!  I arrived back in the UK from Aus via Dubai to the result!

Meanwhile, Fergy is slowly losing it and becoming an embarrassment to his club -

Ferguson refuses to speak to media after Liverpool game

while King Kenny remains cool.

Braga in Portugal is the next match…

There have been some serious errors of judgement by referees, the majority of which TV can resolve.  But Emperor Blatter in his virtual country of FIFA won't have it.

And yes, let's hope LFC have a strong finish to the season and maybe make 5th and a place in Europe next season.

The performance v Braga lacked creativity and leadership.

That was a touch of class from 32-y-o Stankovic, volleyed first time from the half way line!  Excellent.

Remember Xabi Alonso's from 70 yards (with StevieG screaming at him to pass!)

Yes, it was cracking win last night.  Good goals too.

City have lost their way, and will no doubt fail to put up a fight on Saturday, handing the FA Cup Final place to their undeserving neighbours… but nevertheless, Come on, Citeh!

That geriatric Giggs has scored.  Schalke seemed over-awed by the mancs.  GET INTO  THEM!

Schalke were unnecessarily over-awed.  Their poor passing ruined them, along with a tepid commitment to battle Giggs and Carrick in the midfield.  I recorded today's Barca-Real Madrid match, and now I'm enjoying a scotch style ruby ale from a Seattle brewery before I turn it on!

Excellent!!!  And now for the big match vs. Hotspurs this weekend!

Barca will win.  And the Mancs will have a player sent off in their desperate attempts to stop Messi, Villa, Iniesta and the rest.

Unless Howard Webb is the referee.

The Manks were so ordinary it was laughable.

"Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson is predicting their Champions League final against Barcelona will be a classic, saying it could be the best final in a decade - and that his side will win it."

And Bob Paisley is still the only manager with 3 European Cups under his belt - and former Reds boss won them in six attempts (after having qualified as Euiropean or English Champions each time, whereas it has taken Ferguson 17 campaigns to win only two.  Back to the Theatre of Dream On, Fergy!

Somehow I missed this post until just now.  I like it!

And now this . . .

AC Milan may do well, but I hope LFC KEEPS Aquilani and combines him with Meireles, Adam, Lucas, Downing, Cole, Maxi and Gerrard to form the dominant midfield  (taking some turns) in world football.  With Carroll and Suarez up top and if the defense can get sorted, Liverpool could gel and win the Premiership.  Aguilani showed more in his quarter hour plus than anyone other than Agger displayed in 90 minutes!  He is in form and at the peak of his abilities, and I say Milan can't have him!!!!  Go Reds. 

posting in every thread is certainly (not) going to do it!

We will win it one day lol

Again!  And what a team that was in 1967!

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1967_European_Cup_Final

"In 1967 the European Cup was in its twelfth season and had been totally dominated by what were quaintly referred to in the British press as ‘Latin clubs’. Only Real Madrid, Benfica and the two Milan teams had lifted the trophy and a victory for outsiders Celtic would have been deemed a shock of colossal proportions. But Jock Stein wasn’t taking his team to Lisbon just to make up the numbers."

Good article!

Not long to the kick off at Anfield, about an hour.  A convincing win is needed.

Meanwhile, neighbours Everton have to sit it out, as the match at Tottenham has had to be re-scheduled.  I hear part of the White Hart Lane Stadium was badly damaged by the stupid rioting cockneys.

Adams was impressive, and Suarez! even though he missed his chances.  Nice goal by Henderson!  A dominating performance despite the last minute concession.  Enrique impressed me. He gets Suarez's movement and attacks well down the flank.  Adams' passes were mostly excellent!

Yes, that was more like it. Not only was it a sell-out at Anfield, but the fans were making more noise too!

And there's still StevieG, Glen Johnson and the 1.98m man mountain Sebastian Coates to come!

Let's hope Hope Spurs and The Arsenal can do the biz today!
