oK to keep Hurl happy.

Very little talk of Torres' flick the other night. Mirror described it as one of the freat FA Cup moments. It was pure magic.

No harm done corn - like I said - it just all that craic bores the hole of me. You are actually one of the better posters in this thread

QuoteWigan are flying at the moment,I wouldn't be to optimistic about tonight to be honest

Wigan have just sold their 2 of their main threats in Palacios and Heskey so there's never a better time to play them

It reminded me of Canavan's pass to Stevie O'Neill in the game v Dublin in 2005 and just like that piece of skill will not be remembered as well due to lack of finish applied.

Jaysus OTB - I was just watching that match last night

Wigan are flying at the minute - but they have lost 3 games at home this season and are prone to letting the goals in there.

Liverpool have been perfect against them at their ground since they were promoted, winning 3 from 3 and conceding zero goals

Team for tonight

Reina

Arbeloa Carragher Skrtel Dossena

Kuyt Alonso Mascherano Riera

Gerrard

Torres

Is that official Gab?

Over the Bar · January 28, 2009, 04:19:28 PM

Wigan should have won at Anfield..... hopefully they will get their just reward tonight.....

Gabriel_Hurl · January 28, 2009, 04:24:16 PM

Nah Carmen - it's a bit early for the team to be announced - I'd like to see that though

Is it just me or has Dossena been pretty good since his return from the injury? Thought he was excellent on Sunday

Carmen Stateside · January 28, 2009, 04:32:56 PM

He had a good game at the weekend. Coming from italian football into the premiership has got to be the toughest transition for an overseas player with the two styles being so different, so hopefully he is over that part and makes continued progress. Cant be that bad seeing he has several Italian caps.
Thats should be the team all right but would like to see someone else out right cause we got to get at Wigan from the off, three points vital and as that puke OTB has said Wigan have lost there two main threats so no better time to get them!

I wouldn't describe Heskey and Palacios as their two main threats. Those are obviously Zaki and Valencia. Still they have lost two important players for them.

Minder · January 28, 2009, 05:19:19 PM

Palacios was their best player, Zaki hasnt scored too many since those two at Anfield. We have to win tonight and hopefully the team is set up to go for the win.

WaterBoy · January 28, 2009, 05:22:34 PM

Ole!!!!!

Hound · January 28, 2009, 05:22:45 PM

Wigan are definitely a bogey side. Remember even Titus useless hole Bramble scoring a screamer from 20 yards against us. Last minute as well I think. That even surpassed Gerry Taggart scoring against us for Leicester some years back!

Palacios was a good player but was their defensive midfielder hence why Spurs wanted him. Their two main attacking threats are Zaki and Valencia. Zaki has only got 3 goals alright since the Anfield game although he did miss a few games since then.

That would make a change but I hope so too as it will be more entertaining to watch
