this thread is about as lively as the match and the Anfield crowd...

I thought the crowd were pretty decent tbh.

Although there seemed to be less empty seats for the games against Gomel and Hearts.

Could turn out to be a bigger threat to us than Eto'o

Came on to post pretty much what OPR just said.

Decent performance, but we haven't threatened much. To be fair Anzhi have a strong defensive record and they look like they're here for the draw. We have been the better team and must go all out for the win in the 2nd half.

Assaidi must be seriously playing himself into Rodgers' first team plans. He looks dangerous every time he gets on the ball and has linked up very well with Johnson. Unfortunately Wisdom and Downing don't carry anything near the same threat on the other side, so our attacks are predictably coming down the left side repeatedly.

Would love to see Assaidi and Sterling on either flank at the same time - the pace and ability to beat a man on both sides would be frightening for the defence.

Disappointingly I see this ending goalless to be honest. Hopefully we can nick a goal. I believe we can keep them out if we get our noses in front.

If Young Boys beat Udinese a draw won't be a disaster at least

looks like you got your wish already

Washington Irving

Suarez is having a bad influence on the other players, no one can finish anymore

Leiva

That pass was for Suarez.. But who needs Carrolls knocks on hey? We have Raheem

AH NO THANKS

Handsome Bob

Had to have two or three looks, in case I had mistaken him for Sahin or Assaidi. :pac:

This game should be set up now for pool attackers

opr

Honestly once Lucas gets back to provide proper defensive cover Downing could prove to be an excellent left back. Him and Johnson on the other side against weaker teams could be a wonderful option.

Opr

G'wan Wisdom

5starpool

Better atmosphere now.

ShamoBuc

Impressive work by Stevie and then again by wisdom - looks strong on the ball.

Give it to Downing, give it to Downing

Rodgers name getting chanted by the Kop

Leiva

I knew Assaidi was skilful before tonight's game but feck me he is a revelation.

His all round game is very impressive- really unselfish, stuck in, strong in the tackle and getting back around.

My motm so far.

Washington Irving

BSC - Udinese score

Young Boys 1-0 up, so we go top if scores stay the same

Anyone

Bad flashback....Traore coming on at Anfield...

We really need another goal here you'd feel.

C'mon Sterling, head up

He seems wise beyond his years.

Leiva

Suarez is running on reserve by the looks of it.

Take him off I say for Sunday and Gerrard aswell cause last time we played midweek Gerrard looked especially bollöxed and useless come the weekend game.

Washington Irving

There's the Stewie we all know and love

Downing, almost hero to http://cdn.business2community.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/Envelope.png

Morzadec

Time to bring on ALlen to settle this game down a bit and start dominating possession again
