Do you really hope that ? Or are you just saying something wildly emotional ?

I think he was just stating his preference in those specific circumstances.

Do you understand now ?

The cups don't mean much when teams pick entire different XI's in the early rounds once you make a quarter final it gets taken seriously. Much prefer to be performing consistently than taking the domestics cups for more than what they are.
I'd be delighted if we beat City but there is still 3 months left in the season & how we perform week in & week out is an indicator of how we're doing not winning Capital One or FA Cups

Well I've held a season ticket for a season (not at club prices) and regularly paid top dollar for tickets to matches over the years with the opening home match, of the season, being a regular event for about 7 of the 10 years I lived in the UK.

I've also spent many mornings arising at silly hours, for example from 1am-6am, depending on what time zone I was living in at that time. Always difficult traveling to matches in randomn venues (in cities or towns I barely knew at times) over the years at abnormal times to watch game on a tv I didn't have.

I could go on and on and on and on.

I know how much I've supported my club, for over 37 years now (including first visit to Anfield at the age of 12), and I can go in to greater detail if I wasn't on my Bàstard phone.

In short, if people don't understand that I have very little interest in winning that irrelevant trophy then that's hardly my fault. Again, I could go into detail, which I thought would be fairly obvious, as to why but there seems to be no point.

I believe you..

Cool, if you feel it's no point all the better.

Liverpool have failed to score in the last four days and if they fail to score tomorrow, that will mean they have failed to score for 4/7 days this week.

Yeah but we've only got cup games this week so it doesn't matter as much. Now if we don't score in our next league game, well that's our season ruined :pac:

You'd rather win a 2nd leg Europa League last 32 match against the 13th best team in Germany than a League Cup final? For the outside chance of qualifying for another tournament we won't win?

Rather not lose at all.

Could barely remember this game, until I saw the Henchoz line clearance.

I remember watching it at home, went for a couple of pints to celebrate after it with a mate and then off to a Cheltenham Preview Evening in Stillorgan!

To be fair, I was 12.

I probably had a couple of pints of milk too many, or something.

It is a weird one, though. I remember so much from the treble campaign, but the details of the final in 03 had completely left me.

Liverpool linked with Ignacio Camacho.

Not sure what to make of him, tbh. He does love a tackle, I suppose.

If I remember correctly, Dudek had a decent game against Utd for once in that match!

To be honest, I can't remember a lot about it either I have to say. I was certainly a lot older than 12 and there was likely to have been beer in play as well so that probably explains it.

The one vs Arsenal was much better :P

I understand now why Lovren and Skrtel have been out for so long. We've actually gone and moulded them together.

Meet Lovrel.

I love the bit where Keane bursts his boll0ck$ to get back to chop the legs off Owen but just comes up short. Makes the goal much sweeter

We played in a League Cup final in 2003? Against Utd? We won? Sadly, I remember absolutely nothing about that game. I would have sworn the last time we played Utd in a cup final was the white suit final in 1996.

I remember Birmingham, Arsenal and Alaves all in 2001 but 2003 is a total blank. I must check out the link...

fyfe79

Ok, just watched it. Total blank still. I know for a fact I would have watched it at the time, but I didn't recall a single thing as I was watching it there. Jesus.

It honestly must be the most forgettable final, excluding Charity Shield and Super Cups, that Liverpool have ever won.

Would have originally watched that game in high definition BulmersVision so memories were a bit hazy alright.

Watched it back there, and despite knowing the score, I was still expecting United to grab a schnaky last minute equaliser

On watching that back there my reaction to when Gerrard shot was, jeez, he's ballooned that well over..... oh! I do not remember that goal!

Are you sure you remember that one, he scored loads of similar goals!

What's the juggling situation with the squad this week then?

I'm thinking something like this:

EL:

---

Origi
Coutinho--Hendo--Ibe

---

Milner--Lucas
Smith-Sakho-Illori-Clyne

LC Final:

---

Sturridge
Coutinho--Hendo--Firmino

---

Milner--Can
Moreno-Sakho-Toure-Clyne

PL:

---

Origi
Ibe----Lallana--Firmino

---

Milner--Can
Moreno-Lovren-Toure-Flanno

If Sturridge can start two in a row I'd go for LC and PL (because I think the final is the most important and he should be fresh).

It's also dependent on Lovren and Lallana being fit. Otherwise you're swapping in Lucas at CB or in midfield.

The only thing I remember about that 2003 final was that they didn't want to win it anyway.

The first 2 games will pretty much be full strength anyhow I reckon, with Sturridge/Firmino/Coutinho starting both (injury permitting). Maybe the likes of Lucas/Can might be swapped out between games. Brad Smith is injured I think or is that not the case anymore?

Edit: I hadn't seen our team for the game tonight before I posted this. Smith not injured anyhow.

I was half expecting Gerrard and Diouf to start boxing the heads off each other!

I just clicked into my stream here on Kodi and the quality is unbelievable.

Some american commentators and they are so much better than the usual Owen crap.

Don Hutchinson co-commentator tonight on BT, not that he's great either. Owen probably on for the utd game.

Poor United fans. Bad enough they have to watch boring football but having to listen to Owen commentate on it makes it a million times worse

Matip just made a bad error for Schalke tonight. He'll fit in well.

5starpool

Watching this team is not good for your heart. Made very hard work of that. If we get drawn against a good side tomorrow I can't see us progressing.

Agent Coulson

We really really really need to sign a player that can kick a dead ball.

ricero

Jasus i **** me knickers with that free kick at the end. We should of won it with ease but typical us making it harder on ourselves

monkey9

I reckon this is as far as we'll go in the Europa League now. We'd have been beaten against a decent team tonight.
