watched the game tonight, and Liverpool really are poor! when they come forward they rarely looked dangerous, and that's against Wigan!

I did have Rodallega first scorer too which was a bonus! :barscarf:

By the way, is it just me or is Torres incredibly over-rated? Sure, he can score, but he's absolutely useless outside the box, and I mean absolutely useless.
Blimey there is a list of strikers as long as your arm that weren't that good outside the box..... Our striker Bendtner is useless inside the box too, i know who id rather have :?

A buddy of mine bet 100 quid on with a mutual scouse supporting buddy early this season that the scousers would not finish in the top 4. For the last month or so the fans of victims fc have started crawling back out from the woodwork proclaiming that 4th place is their's and on tonights evidence I dont think it is :lol: Gonna be a right battle with them, the scum, shitty and villa now and hard to know which one of these *word censored* I would prefer to see finishing 4th :?

Same as Van Nistleroy, then.

But without all the cheating.

:D
Much as I hate the horsefaced twat, he was actually very good on the ball. He had technique and purpose in possession. Can dribble a bit as well. As for Torres, just stay tight on him in the box and you've sussed him out. He's not Thierry Henry, he won't sprint past a bunch of defenders and score, or a Drogba who can bulldoze his way through people, or a Rooney who can just smash one in from 30 yards.

I'm with you, hate all four teams so it's a much of a muchness. Hope the other scouse team comes up on the rails and overtakes the bloody lot of them.

But don't like this thread, schadenfreude always always ends up biting us on the arse, so let's just put our energy into cheering the boys tomorrow and away to The Tango Karaoke King :barscarf: :barscarf:

Shame really.... can't stand VictimMurderersFC, but would rather see them in the CL than Scum, Shitty or Vile. Don't suppose Everton making a late push for the CL is going to happen...? :?

Btw, scousers were fucking awful tonight. Could barely string two passes together.

I think Torres is amazing, he is just at a shit team. If he was with us it would be a different story. Torres supported by Arshavin or van persie........ I think I jus cracked a Barnsley :shock:

Ok, we may be laughing about Liverpool but please consider the possible alternatives

Manchester City-If they qualify they will be able to attract better players and will continue spending money therefore eventually breaking into the group of title contenders and no longer trying to break the top 4. The longer they stay out the top 4 the better.

Aston Villa-Second to Spurs to have the most dislikeable inbred fans in the Premiership. Singing songs about Eduardo. The reason I dont want them in the top 4 is their fans alone

Spurs-This really doesn't need an explanation why this team should not get Champions League Football under any circumstances. Imagine the gushing over Harry Redknapp...they only had two points when he took over dont you know.

So despite Gerrards diving, Mickey Mouse Owen stealing the FA Cup from us, Babels tumble and cheeky loveable Scousers they are by far the more desirable team to qualify over the others. If you look on their boards and talk to their fans as well they do have a respect for us, even if they still havent forgiven us for 1989.
