UCL Qualifier 2nd Leg : vs CSKA Sofia
-
Stevie Gerry confirmed not playing after he played a part in England's match vs Denmark and against Sunderland on Saturday , a possible calf strained .
Leading 3-1 , and playing at Anfield .
Should be an easy game , focusing more on defending than offensive .
Expect a clean sheet . 0-0
Got live or not ?

skipper aint playing so anything can happen.

I think it will be ok. We have able cover in Alonso, Sissoko and Hamann. Zenden can also play in the middle and Risse can cover him on the left. I don't see this a problem. I would like to see Pongolle playing on the right. I think he played there during a recent reserve match and reports said that he was quite good. So this is a match to try him out. Maybe he can solve the right midfield crisis.

Pool siao siao one..
I think they might lose 1-0 or 2-1 -
Liverpool is not a ONE man team.
It is just a matter of whether they turn complacent and try to save strength for friday.
There is a barren patch for Moro and Cisse.
I am a bit worried whether who can scored the goal for Liverpool. -
Beni may not field the 1st choice team (esp. w/out Stevie), but I hope the boys will work their socks off 2 regain some confidence!
Expect a narrow win or a draw. -
Hmm... lost 1-0 at home ....
Still okay to lose , but lose in what kind of manner ?
Must go read the report . -
carson playing.. sure will concede goals 1..
-
Ha .... no wonder we lost , read this : "Centre of defense : Josemi partnering Hyypia in the centre of defense ! "
Huh...
Josemi as Centre back ??? -
You didn't watch the match? I did. Well, the team is more like a reserve team. Sofia played well. Their attack was very good. The defence and midfield can't cope with them, especially in the 1st half.
There's one thing to learn from the match. We really need Owen. Cisse and Morientes were playing together in front. But these two players are really pathetic, especially Morientes. Either he is too good for the other players or he is pants. His passes usually don't find a Red shirt. So probably the other players cannot read his intentions and hence were not there to receive the ball. Looking at this performance, I will stick to my statement, that is, I will be very happy if he can score 10 goals this season.
Rafa keeps saying that if Morientes gets the services, he will score. He has played in the last three matches and Liverpool has only scored 1 goal, and that was from a free-kick. We have chances to score at least a dozen goals in those games. If those chances are not the services Morientes needs, then what is? An open gaping goal?
When we sold Baros, we possibly sold a striker who would have scored the most goals among the current crop of strikers. I cannot believe that Cisse was top scorer in France for an average Auxerre team, ahead of Drogba when he was at Monaco. How on earth did he manage that? I will never know.
Forget about Dirk Kuyt. He may be the top scorer in Holland. But, please, not another unproven striker in the Premiership. I don't want another Cisse. Owen is a safer bet, even if he will cost 5 million more than Kuyt. I will be very disappointed if they did not buy him. -
owen is definitely out for liverpool.. 10 millions pound for him.. liverpool cannot afford such a transfer..

Where else can you get a potent striker for less? I don't want another unproven or sicknote striker. Considering we paid 14 million for Cisse, Owen is actually quite cheap.Originally posted by geran76:owen is definitely out for liverpool.. 10 millions pound for him.. liverpool cannot afford such a transfer..
