Benitez .... prick

There ARE other teams(we'd have no-one to play otherwise) and here's where all-comers can discuss the wider world of football......

Haha, no, not quite. Although it's still a lovely sight to see (for at least 2 weeks :) ) even if it is ridiculously early on in the season.

I wish Benitez would burst !

Mind ... he looked close to it this week !

Indeed, woe is us, we failed to beat Birmingham at home, the world is going to end, sack Rafa, bring back Pako, the doomsayers were right...

Or just one of those days against a side that were organised and came for a point, and did their job better than we did ours. I'll still take being 1 point (net, given our game in hand) off the lead at this point of the season and yet to conceded a goal from open play in half a dozen games...

Well indeed, I'd be a bit miffed if a general malaise overtook us and we consistently played like that, but we're still ahead of where we were last year (for instance) so one resolute defence is no reason to cry. We'll fail to beat at least one other side like that at Anfield this season, maybe 2. See what Reading did at OT. Sides will always be able to sneak the odd result at the big clubs.

Only 2 changes from the side that started against Porto, and I didn't see too many people saying we weren't putting out a full-strength side against them...

I remember when we went to Anfield and secured a fantastic 0-0 draw. What a shite game that was.

Was that in your 'worst ever season'? Can remember you giving us some form of upset that year. Last time we played you at Anfield was Xabi Alonso 1-0 early in the season, wasn't it?

You should play that boy Torres more, he looks quite handy.

Aye, the last time we played was the 1-0 game, good game that one. Mind, the sun wasn't half bright that day. Andy Welsh was harshly sent off that day.

The 0-0 was the time before - in the worst season before the worst season ever - when you had 30+ shots, 15 or so corners, and we had, erm...none. Jurgen Macho played a blinder. He then went to Chelsea, got seriously injured and is now plying his trade in his native Austria, I believe, after a disasterous spell at a German club.

We also beat you 2-1 at the SoL, in the season we finished with 19 points.

Ooof, that's a low blow Nozza!!

Mind, that's before Liverpool had a super-duper squad that never ever dropped points against weaker teams... ah :mrgreen:

We also lost at home to Ipswich 1-0 in their record-breaking season of shitness. We did well at that sort of thing in the late nineties and early noughties. Lost some shockers of FA Cup ties against crap teams, too.

Is it strange that I'd take 3 points on Sunday rather than tonight?
