Chelsea v Liverpool

[adje]

Lampard and Gerrard-supposedly the best 2 midfielders in Europe,nay the world, were both garbage.They were officialy the worst offenders of the most heinous crime in football,namely giving the ball away.Just like watching England in fact.

Gerrard definitely, but I don't recall Lampard being awful. He was very average last night, just like everyone else.

If you look at the statistics(its in the Sun so it must be true)Lampard gave the ball away 17 times,Gerrard 16-that was the point I was making Sonic

:? Dodgy goal.

T'was a very dodgy goal. I don't think it was over the line... But surely if it hadn't gone in then it would have been a pen and red card for either Cech (for bringing Baros down) or for Carvalho (for handling the ball). I reckon they got off lightly and that Cech was lucky to stay on.

Chelsea are playing as they always seem to when I watch, pretty boringly and pretty luckily. Another Liverpool goal would certainly test them.

It's amazing how little Drogba does in a game. And how quickly an injury can clear up! The goon.


At least Mourinho isn't wearing that damn coat.

How've they been lucky? Very unlucky to be behind I'd say.

Chelsea are really missing Duff and Robben. They've still had most of the play but Liverpool are defending well.

[timmyg]

Sorry, it wasn't very clear. The luck I was referring to was the potential penalty incident involving Cech which the ref ignored.

I agree that they are missing Robben and Duff, they need something to happen out wide for them. Maybe Joe Cole can grow into the game the way he seems to have done recently...

Although in a previous post I said i don't give a flying fuck I now want Chelsea to knock these happy scousers out.  Come on you blues.

[Ben Wah Balls]

But if Liverpool had got the penalty, they wouldn't of got the goal and Cudicini may well have saved it even if Cech was sent off.

The atmosphere is not what it was hyped up to me, just loads of whistling scousers.


It's been like the Carling cup final with the early liverpool goal and then Chelsea dominating although not so high tempo.

Hopefully Robben will be on soon and fit to really liven things up.

T'is true what you say.

Gudjohnsen is starting to get into the game a bit more now, despite taking a kick in the face. Is it true that he dived to get Alonso suspended then gloated about it? I can't say I remember to much about it...

[DiV]

European games are so dull, boring and slow

Give me fast paced, premiership relegation dog fight anyday....

Cisse looks like a class a prick.  Sort out the do FFS.

Sounds like a Scouser told you that. It's not really his style.

[timmyg]

I HATE it when players fall over and grab the ball like Lampard just did. It's the single most irritating trait of shit Italian players. Surely a deliberate handball is a card of some type?? (I always thought it was a straight red, but now I think that's only to prevent a goal/goal scoring chance??)

P.S Cisse's hair is
