Bear are you a pool fan?
-

Olivera almost scores!
the LFC goalie was equal to the wickedly hit shot! -
damn! Reyna almost gets mugged but saves a goalmouth melee!
-
lyon is 2 nil up against madrid..
-
bugger this.. i'm just going to watch the game and fall asleep watching it
-
I guess Ah Ben really know the spanish team well to beat them and bring Valencia to the League Champion.
But, why can't Liverpool play as good during EPL matches ???
They are a completely different team.
At least they have scored and won.
Congratulation to the Liverpool team for their good work and proving me wrong.
Hope they have COMPLETE rest to beat Man Utd this Sunday. -
i hope real madrid win nothing again this season. they have owen but yet chose to sign new strikers.Originally posted by stellazio:lyon is 2 nil up against madrid..
their management is really weird. -
What did I say? What did I say? Okay lah, score not correct but still.....Originally posted by CoolMyth:Will be a very weird game.
Liverpool is more suited to playing the European game. The hit and run style of EPL does not suit Liverpool at all.
Since Rafa knows all about Spanish sides, I think he knows how to handle them.
2-0 win for 'Pool!
WIN MONEY! HOORAY FOR 'POOL!
-
We WON!!! 2-1
This one's for the fans!
.....as well as the "critics" - who can blame them....don't think they noe much abt Beni nor the game!
-
1 goal in 3 matches in the EPL.
2 goals in 1 Champs league game.
Hahahaha
FUnny right? -
Haven't seen the match , back home from work just to catch the telecast at 3pm to 5pm .
Sounds exciting , Gerrard rested ?? And won ?
Wow ! Benitez Top-Notch man ...... think he's up to something against Man UTD thid Sunday , meaning Gerrard a must for this MU's match .
Now must go see their line-up against Betis ..... strange to see Pongelle in the score-sheet . -
Hahaha......we conceded a goal , our season's first , and Josemi is our right back last night !
basket , whenever he play , we seemed to concede goals .
Wow ..... Reina , Josemi , Alonso , Sissoko , Garcia , 5 ex-Spanish League players playing against a Spanish Team , and won .
Maybe the understanding of how Betis played prove a vital point for us .
Saw reports Reina make some crucial saves to deny Betis . Pepe prove once again , what a good signing he is !
Sissoko , Alonso , Zenden as the 3 midfield anchor . Just behind Crouch and Pongelle , Garcia sneaking from behind , master stroke by Benitez .
Come On , bring on The Red Devils !! -
Josemi is hopeless!!!
even though we need someone to cover Finnan, I rather NOT have him -
must be garcia complaining when he plays right wing, coz besides josemi, no other right back speaks spanish.

Some extracts abt Crouch on his European debut:-
The mystery is gone but the mystique is growing.
Already the taunts which haunted the 24-year-old, from Priestfield to Edgeley Park, are sounding ridiculous. This was a powerful and impressive debut in Europe's elite club competition, an hour-long performance which combined neat touches with strength in the air and his back to goal. Sven-Goran Eriksson, swatting away midges in the stands, might even have managed a sigh of relief.
Some still find it hard to believe that the 6ft 7in striker, all thin limbs and awkward gait, is a Liverpool player. They may think again if he continues to perform like this. He spent much of his fourth appearance in red cradling passes flung by Xabi Alonso and the centre-halves as BenÃtez demanded the direct. He rarely conceded possession despite a marker, Juanito, snapping at his back and, when the home captain hovered too close, Crouch flicked the ball away and turned slickly to force the Spaniard to drag him illegally to the turf.
By then Liverpool led the game to prove that, sometimes, Crouch does not even need his own touch to torment. Juanito and David Rivas had been panicked by the forward's presence within two minutes, allowing Florent Sinama-Pongolle to cushion the ball on an instep and lob Antonio Doblas to put the visitors ahead. Twelve minutes later he summoned a reverse pass to flummox the home defenders and allow Boudewijn Zenden to collect, cross and supply Luis Garcia's scintillating second. -
ya lor seow sell walter samuel then buy strikers. defence like shit. liverpool doesnt have world class players but they certainly produced a world class performance. but i rrly hate liverpool second half peformance. nearly 2-2Originally posted by dragg:i hope real madrid win nothing again this season. they have owen but yet chose to sign new strikers.
