ehhhh no he didn't.

ehhh watch it again.  His toe tips the ball away just before the tumble

Touching the ball first does not automatically mean its not a foul,It was a bad challenge and should have been a peno,especially as if he did touch the ball it was only the slightest of touches and was not a clean tackle

[ONeill]

If Liverpool have serious designs on winning the title this year, going out early in the cups will do them good. They won't go out to lose but maintaining that challenge with Chelsea is paramount. Unfortunately, Benitez's love affair with the Champions League could hinder them. Like Arsenal, Liverpool haven't the squad to seriously compete for both the CL and the title together. I think Benitez should use the CL as a side issue, for bringing some players on and those in need of game time. Pile all his chips into the league. Give Gerrard etc as much rest as possible midweek. He won't do that though. Liverpool's tradition means they demand European success and that could be their downfall again.

Good points O'Neill much better than 'these boys are shite' that some have posted tonight. 

I think Rafa will actually rest pol;enty until the knock-out stages of the CL. We are basically through and a draw with Marsaille should suffice.

The Chritsmas period will be crucial and DEC 21 especially.

[Yes I Would]

Basically yes!! When did Liverpool start celebrating second place and runners up medals??
My feeling is that after 4 1/2 years with 3rd place his highest finish, this is the year to deliver. Sitting pretty in November is positive, but its a long season and some of these second string arent up to it and hopefully arent gonna be relied upon to sustain a title challenge.

f**k you are talking some shite lad. Its a Carling Cup match go away and talk some sense will ya yo fool.

You would know all about it. You do nothing but it on the Armagh club thread about your beloved club and your inability to question anything regarding any of the O Rourkes.
Face the facts and take off your club coloured glasses an odd time and see things really for  how they are.

Brilliant reply you shithead. You obviosuly know f**k all about soccer as well as GAA

Jesus settle yourself down you muck savage.

Champions leaague was welcomed but that was almost 4 years ago. Should have kicked on from that and havent. I hope this year is the year, and it could well be.
Rafa obviously feels now is the time as they are sitting pretty in the league to push home the issue of his contract, which he is well entitled to do.
Most supporters seem convinced he is the man. I dont, and cant feel he has no god given right to earn another 4 year contract worth an alleged 20 million at this stage of his Liverpool career unless either a league or champions league is delivered.

This game really showed Liverpool's squad players to be very weak. To win the league a team must have 18 or 20 players that a manager would have no problems throwing into an important league game. I don't think Liverpool have enough of these type of players and this will cost tham a league title this year..

Reina
Aurelio
Arbeloa
Hyppia
Agger
Skrtl
Carragher
Alonso
Macherano
Babel
Lucas
Gerrard
Kuyt
Reira
Torres
Keane
El Zhar
Pennant

There is your 18 players wh0o can be thrown in for the big matches - and have been.

Corn, I like most of your posts, you seem very reasoned, but I don't think your could trust a lot of the players you mentioned there!

not TRUST ? in what way ?

[Over the Bar]

Clear-cut penalty.

Not according to Phil Neal on Sky sports, but sure what would he know compared to the real 'pool fans on the board eh?

[Goats Do Shave]

not TRUST ? in what way ?

Hyypia - Done!
Pennant - Useless!
Lucas - You serious?
El Zahar - Only seen a bit of him, but i'm glad he's at Liverpool!!

Even some of the other players should only be squad players, because that's what they would be at Chelsea or UTD.
