Day : Sunday

Time : 8.45pm
Live: CH-23
Wrong time for us to play Everton ?
Will the win against Olympiakos boasted our moral for this match ?
Will we stop the winning form of The Toffeeman ?
Who's playing and who's not ? -
Usually hor, the form book get thrown out of windows when comes to derbies like this!
Got the feeling tat tis may gonna be one of the best derbies in years as both teams are in good shape.
But fear NOT, our team-morale is at an all-time high now...n tat shd give us the crucial edge in tis match!
Ah Pool ah, still sleepy fm last nite?.... the match is on SAT leh; dun u miss it! -
jia lat man...LFC really unlucky to play toffees at this time because its when they are flying high with consecutive victories & confidence running high in the other half of the meyerside =/
-
the only worry i have is the fitness level of the players.
ucl game on thurs. match on sat. Thats quite SHIONG.
Lets hope they dont suffer a hangover.
Everton's run needs to be ended.And it shall happen this weekend!
-
I got 5 Liverpool players in my fantasy team... That says enough...
But actually it's because Liverpool is the only team playing 2 matches this prolonged weekend...
But I say Everton has enjoyed enough luck... it's time for Liverpool's turn to get some... -
Redz ar Redz , the match not on Sunday meh ?
We were involve in UCL on Thursday , usually in this case , Saturday's game is to be postpone to Sunday !
I thought it's the FA ruling ?
If like that , the lads damn shiong leh ! Thursday chiong liao , Saturday chiong again . Die ar like that ! -
Well, Everton's lucky streak has to end sometime rite? Liverpool has more than enough quality to make it 5 straight victories in a row at Goodison Park.
-
You know the Liverpool for this season ...
They will always come up with unexpected results ....
Good or bad ... nobody knows until the final whistle ... -
Maybe not so if UCL is played at Home.Originally posted by Poolman:Redz ar Redz , the match not on Sunday meh ?

Walan , just checked those fixture , it's confirmed to be played on saturday , damn !
We had a 3.45am un-usualy late kick-off for UCL on Thursday, and now we face an early kick-off at Goodsion Park somemore ..... argh ! Fatigue are a major problem for us !
And worst thing , we are going to play across Stanley Park @ Goodison , and against 11 fresh "horses" , and non-stop running of those Toffeemen !
Just shiong la this game for us !
Everton are very good nowadays all-round , from defense to forward , all quite balance , Moyes are doing one hell of a good job there !
And their strength in those set-pieces happens to be our weakest link , as in defending for set-pieces !
Their aerial strength also very strong , with Tim Cahill and Duncan Ferguson all very good at heading .... gosh .... we're facing numberous threat from all corners .
Thier fans are in for a good show !
Player-to-keep-an-eye-on : Tim Cahill -
miracles can happen. believe in the Reds. just like half time in the olympiakos game. i tot liverpool no hope already. need to score 3 goals against a greek team in 45 mins is highly unlikely but the ball is round and anything can happen.

Liverpool winning and scoring 3 goals against Olypiakos is no miracles....cos the REDS are a good team! Everton will not stand a chance against Liverpool tmr....my bet is on the REDS for sure!!!Originally posted by frOst^~^nOva:miracles can happen. believe in the Reds. just like half time in the olympiakos game. i tot liverpool no hope already. need to score 3 goals against a greek team in 45 mins is highly unlikely but the ball is round and anything can happen. -
Liverpool all the way!!! i go 4 Liverpool 2-1!!!

Might just end up in a 1-1 draw.

Liverpool did not produce good result after excellent previous matches.
Looking at the strong defence of Everton and hunger of both teams, Everton have the edge and the need to consolidate their position.
As for Liverpool, they will be tired after the excitement and celebration.
Although it is a Derby match, Liverpool dun really hate Everton so much.
Maybe I am wrong.
The Derby stuff seem to be cooped by the media to sell more papers.
Match Analysis:
Defence - Josemi will definitely return to right back and thus creating area of weakness.
Midfield - Diao, Biscan may be play to rest Gerrard.
Striker - Baros is sharp but not fit. Mellor is good but not sharpen at the 6-yard box. Sinama is getting HUGE improvement every match.
Kewell, better dun keng and start scoring goals.
So, it will be a close call
Everton 1 Liverpool 0 -
JOSEMI's FAULT again.
Is Benitez BLIND or what?
1-0 defeat. I dont understand why benitez din throw on baros,alonso and finnan in the 2nd half.
Starting with josemi and diao is suicidal.
Very bad result today. -
Diao was the nearest player to the Everton Goal Scorer.
He did not react.
Actually, he did not perform his defensive role throughout the match and was not even good at passing the ball to the front line.
The Liverpool team was tired with the wrong men used.
Steve destined to go after this season. -
shouldnt finnan be playing on the right back instead of josemi, which is where the goal was indirectly created.
i still dont understand why is there such vast differences compared to his first three games.
diao didnt play worse than his previous games, neither did he excel.
is kirkland's performance going downhill lately? maybe he has nothing to do most of the time, thus slowing down his reflexes when he is called upon. -
Our second half shown our fatigue ! All players looked tired !
But one exceptional case , Didi Hamann , the player that wasn't feature in that Olypiakos game , was first to be taken out !
Nevermind , we don't looked likely to win thru' out , so let's say it's a draw 1-1 or 0-0 , it's just a point between a draw and a lost !
Josemi and Diao played better than the last game they played , that's an improvement . -
Win one... lose one... win one... lose one...
end of season.... mid table..
Mr Benitez is this what you want?
When will Mr Rafa SEE that Josemi is the weak link... when will he understand that Diao is only good enough for S-League -
Whenever Josemi or Diao played, I sian 1/2 already... Feel like switching off the TV...
We will be better off playing with 9 men than having 2 liabilities in the team...
Damn, I'm pissed... WTF play Josemi and Diao...
If this goes on, I'll be happy for Stevie G. if he decides to leave... Can't blame him... Who, in his class, wants to be playing alongside crap... -
Well, the usual "scape-goats" for the defeat?!
Dun think it's any coincidence...it had happened a few times already. Perhaps Beni felt tat he had little choice but to rest some players... but I'll prefer he plays the youngsters than to stick to those tried-n-failed players.
Anyway, hope the boys pick things up with a good win over Portsmouth.
