Liverpool will probably go through to the next round tonight.

[ExiledGael]

Cheyrou to score first, Liverpool to win.

[Gabriel_Hurl]

GET IN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Gabriel_Hurl]

Torres ya boy ya

[Gabriel_Hurl]

Who is that new lad out on the left wing? 

[ExiledGael]

Has to be said Torres is world class. Porto one up so Liverpool would finish second as it stands. Can English sides meet in the next round?

[The Real Laoislad]

Torres is a genius...
Had to laugh at Dunphy before the game when he really confirmed his Anti-Liverpool bias by saying only two Liverpool players would get on the first eleven of the other 3 Top 4 teams in Premiership Torres and Gerrard and the rest wouldn't even make the other 3 squads
I reckon he forget to mention Alonso,Masherano,Carragher,Renia and maybe even Finnan and it was even a stupid comment to make because really every club in the Top 4 has players who wouldn't make the other teams XI does anyone think O'Shea,Ferdinand,Wes Brown,Louis Saha,Gary Neville,Hargreaves,Silverstre are any better than what Liverpool have?

[Gabriel_Hurl]

game over?

[Puckoon]

As someone who doesnt like liverpool, at least now they have become half decent to watch. Kewell is playing great stuff right now, hes a new man. Torres is a class act.
Whats the deal with the marseille kit, did they lose a bet or something?

[full back]

O'Shea,Ferdinand,Wes Brown,Louis Saha,Gary Neville,Hargreaves,Silverstre are any better than what Liverpool have?

Ferdinand would make the Liverpool team - the rest wouldnt

Just as well Liverpool are going through - that Marseille defence is woeful
Gerrard playing very very well
Torres - what can you say. He has a superb burst of speed & is showing how good he really is tonight. Why the fcuk isnt he playing every minute of every game??
Get the good game out of the system tonight lads
BTW, who is the skinny lad on the left wing.....

Jamie carraher is a tremendous asset to Liverpool and to me would walk on to any national team in the world, he is that good. Ferdinand is a gifted athlete who has a poor attention span and makes big blunders at bad times and to me he is vastly over rated as a central defender.

does anyone think O'Shea,Ferdinand,Wes Brown,Louis Saha,Gary Neville,Hargreaves,Silverstre are any better than what Liverpool have?

Ferdinand is better than either of Liverpool's central defenders. Gary Neville is a better right back than Steve Finnan. Hargreaves would definitely get on for Liverpool - better than Sissoko or Mascherano.

None of the rest of the players you named would be in United's best XI

[Gabriel_Hurl]

4 nil - lovely.

16 goals in our last 3 CL games

Hargreaves better than Mascherano? Doubtful. No debate with Sissoko though.

Ferdinand has improved greatly over the past few years he's been at United. I wouldn't swap him for Carragher or Agger though.

As for Neville, he's solid I suppose, but Finnan (and lately, Arbeloa) are perfectly capable players there for Liverpool. The position is not exactly a weak one for Liverpool either.
