The OFFICIAL Liverpool Supporters thread

[bingobus]

was at the game on Tuesday, must say it was a very muted affair. My main worry was not so much the result or performance on the night, but the fact that Liverpool finished the match with Arbeloa, Aurelio, Lucas, Ngog, Babel and Derek Kuyt. 6 average players at best, with the exception of Aurelio, who is just pure dung....progress? I think not

time to give M O'N a shot at the title

WTF - I am amazed at this. Jesus Gill is alive and well and posting on the GAABoard as a liverpool supporter.

Today  Peterquaife - "Welcome Martin, new Liverpool manager, you have till christmas to win the league."

December 27th  - Peterquaife - "Martin, you are level with Chelsea and ahead of United but the league isn't in the bag yet. Collect your P45 at the door and move your car out of Big Sam's spot"

I believe Lucas's house was burgled on Tuesday night.

You think they'd have better security measures in place now

Thrilled by this. Benitez, hopefully, will be around for many, many years.

as much as I like Rafa, he has had 5 years and his team is still moving in the same direction as a crab. He continously over complicates and has purchased countless millions on crap.

as regards the position, the reds have been riding their luck, and a league win against chelsea, first in years is hearalded as a triumph, bollix...liverpool should be beating the likes of chelsea regularly.

christ, if i started listed the players he has purchased, it would just ruin my Friday feeling

[Minder]

Why should they be beating the likes of Chelsea regularly? Because they did regularly 20 years ago?

For all the rubbish he has purchased, and he has, his transfer details are almost totally neutral when you exclude those currently in the squad i.e. he has taken in what he has spent.

Still, I wouldn't be in a hurry to renew him, at least until the end of the season, see where the club are.

New Argentina boss Diego Maradona visited Melwood this afternoon for talks with Rafa Benitez and Javier Mascherano.

The trio discussed Mascherano's role for his country under the new regime - but only after Gerrard and co clamoured to shake Maradona's hand.

Benitez said: "It was difficult for me to see him because all our players were very excited about him being here.

"Two of our 'stars' came over and got his autograph. Then after, another 15 players came in saying they wanted to have a photo with him. But he was very good, nice and patient with everyone, so it was a very good experience.

"There was Gerrard, Carra, Keane, Alonso - his father played with Maradona when he was with Barcelona. Then Pepe Reina and also some young players. You could see Insua, Spearing, Flynn - all sorts of players."

The boss added: "We had a meeting to talk about the future of Mascherano with the national team and a few ideas.

"It was a very positive meeting."

One of the items sure to have been discussed was the possibility of Mascherano taking the captain's armband for his country.

Maradona has made no secret of his desire to make the Liverpool man his skipper, while Mascherano admits it would be 'an honour' to lead his nation.

However, no official announcement has yet been made.

Benitez added: "They will now meet again with Javier and it will depend on him.

"He has a fantastic mentality, a strong character and he's a good professional. If he wants he can be a fantastic captain."

[Minder]

I had read somewhere that Masch turned down the chance to be captain as he thinks he is too quiet on the pitch.

[Gabriel_Hurl]

Some refs in the league would disagree with that 

[Stalin]

The Reds XI in full is: Reina, Arbeloa, Aurelio, Agger, Carragher, Mascherano, Gerrard, Kuyt, Benayoun, Riera, Keane. Subs: Cavalieri, Hyypia, Torres, Alonso, Babel, Insua, El Zhar.

Half Time
liverpool 2

Great first half, and Robbie Keane with both goals!!
Hat trick in front of the Kop would be nice now

[J70]

If they continue to go the way they were in the last 25 minutes, they should get another two or three here. Reina was lucky with that near-post one he lost though, while there was a hint of a possible penalty when Carragher either leaned into or pushed (couldn't tell which) the WBA forward. Riera is trying to take too much out of the ball as well - he should pass or cross sooner, but I suppose if he does beat his man and get through into space, we'll all be singing his praises!
