And another thing tufty i hope you do wear a cantona mask to the match cause I'd love you to get fcked out on your ear
sure it's only Liverpool vs Manchester united why wouldn't they let a couple of thousand traviling united supporters to go into anfield with there faces covered, I checked eBay there's noone sellin those masks so if your going to the game just wear a balaclava and tell them tufty of stretford end flags sent ya

GHTT- The masks have been available as a cut out in some of the fanzines.
Its been widely publicised that it will be a Cantona day, with cantona masks and people taking in banners relating to the Cantona quote.
Did you buy any of the fanzines at the match last Saturday?

Im sure most people will keep mask in their pocket till theyget into the ground. Most wil have cardboard ones, as the rubber ones are hard to get hold of.
I take it you wont be taking a Cantona mask to Anfailed?

i personally think we are getting overconfident here.okay.agreed that the dippers are struggling.but how often it happens that a team is written off and it gets a much needed result in a big game.that could happen next Sunday.we are not playing great either so we cannot be too confident.Plus Gerrard and Torres will be back for the dippers.we all know what they did at OT in March.plus we also have injury problems.we struggle against teams that try to be physical and give the ball away way too much.i would happily takea draw.it wont be a bad result. A win would be great though

moscow and anfield.Looking at the team for tomorrow ith all the injuries a draw wont be bad at all.CSKA are a very good side and have plaers who can really hammer in great goals from 25-30 yards

That would be great.remember that we are playing both of them away from home so we will have advantage in the return fixtures.also we will have played dippers chelsea spurs arsenal and shitty while dippers and rentboys will have to yet face shitty and arsenal.

Tufty - Haven't we got Everton before the rentboys as well? I may well be wrong.



Gotta hate - Go on man you tell him.



aig - Alright mate. Yeah I agree with you.As much as I have enjoyed winding dippers up at work I have not gone over board. They can still play on their day and they really will be up for this. United will be too but the dippers NEED a result. I remember us all getting cocky last March and look what happened there. Having said that the dippers are not a physical team and will try and play football which will suit us fine.

Hi mate.actually we play everton on 21st November.2 weeks after Chelsea.of course we have the return leg with CSKA 4 days before Chelsea.
well talking about being physical that was what unsettled us at Anfield last season we were leading and then a freak own goal and liverpools physical approach saw us crumble and give the ball away.in the end we lost deservingly.liverpool are not a physical team but these encounters are usually physical games with lots of fouls.hope we have fletch back for the game.Plus Gerrard and Torres will be back.Have to admit they are sheer class.we cannot play scholes as he is often found wanting in big games.will play giggsy though.
My team would be.
VDS
O Shea Ferdinand Vidic Evra
Valencia Anderson Fletcher Giggs
Berbatov
Rooney

Im looking to run a book at how many united supporters throw Liverpool Beach Balls onto the Pitch on Sunday?

Anyone like to help me with odds for the following

1-5 .......
6-10....
11-15

Also what are the odds of a liverpool player spraining an ankle by stamping on one?......


HAHA...

We win on sunday its all over for Liverpool this year!.... Keep on dreaming...

Playing anyone after a european tie is difficult, the only thing that concerns me is that Liverpool have a home european tie and United have a nasty away one to Moscow above all places!...> Games there have always been difficult!

It certainly wont be easy, i really hope torres is unfit!

after the united game liverpool have to play Arsenal
if they get beat by lyon toight there is a big big chance that they will be dying for the F.A. Cup to start up again as there season could really be in tatters by then

ya.actually i sometimes get a bit irritated that SAF goes for 4-5-1 in the big game because rooney cannot be dropped berba often gets left out.i want us to be positive and have a go at the dippers.berba is in the best form of his united career.we should not be too tactical.just play a 4-4-2 like any other game and i am sure we will win

@trevor

spot on.that is my fear too.plus the dippers play today while we play tomorrow. i am sure that all the 5 players who are missing tomorrow are not injured but are probably 80% fit.SAF does not want to take any chances.the best thing is to make 5-6 changes tomorrow.i would go for this side.
VDS
Brown evans Vidic Fabio
Obertan Carrick Scholes nani
Welbeck
Owen

i wil be delighted with a draw

@ AIG Alex.

Im there with ya.

Think the line up tonight will be simular to yours although

Foster
Brown evans Vidic Fabio
Gibson Carrick Scholes nani
Berbatov
Owen

MY Team for Sunday

VDS
Nevile Ferdinand Vidic Evra
Valencia Fletcher Anderson nani
Giggs
Rooney

Im going for Nevile as i need to see him play and kiss his badge at Anfield just one more time! HAHAHA... Im going for a shock 5 in midfield for this one! I think its one we dont 100% need to win and 1 point would be good enough for us! 1 point to us is 2 dropped by them, if we win then its a hang over on monday!! hahaha

Hi Trevor. No Berbatov for Sunday? I acn appreciate you going for a five man midfield but got to be 4-4-2. Hit the fuckers from the first whistle like we did against Bolton.
