If you are normally in Rotterdam we should see a match at some point.
I'm in Leiden.
I was fishing mate.
We seem to have their number at St Marys in recent times. Tough one though.
Was hoping City would get Everton away or something, but what do you do.
This is very winnable. With the scum, Chelsea, Arse and Spurs all out, you have to say there is a big opportunity to win a trophy here. Even if it is the capital one cup.
Apart from getting that tattoo on his neck. Bad call for me.
It's the Milk Cup mate.
Nah, the milk cup looked like a skinny cyberman's head and we bossed that plain-Jane of a trophy. The capital one cup is, at best, the carling cup, or league cup.
And neglecting to shave all the rest of his hair off.
Stephen French was on Danny Dyers (yes that soft cunt) deadliest men now he's sat in a directors box next to #LFC deadliest man. The beast Sakho.
Fans of the red side of Merseyside were stunned after noticing notorious Scouse hardman Stephen French was casually sitting next to Liverpool players at tonight's Capital One Cup at Anfield.

Arguably the 2nd toughest draw we could have gotten after City away but we definitely have a real shot at winning a trophy here.
Only city are a much bigger side at the moment.

I'm not aux fait with these things, but isn't this gegenpressing business supposed to be about pressing your opponents high up the pitch and winning the ball back quickly?
Cos Bournemouth were probably better at it than us for large parts of the game

To be fair, Klopp is working with the absolute shite Rodgers left him with.
Apart from all the good players he left him with. Poor Klopp.
This is the first time we've kept a clean sheet in the league cup for 10 years
I'm watching gerrard play for Galaxy and I feel like I'm more arsed about it than Lfc. Weird times.
We started with a lot of confusion, which is understandable since many of the players have never ever played with each other before. But it did get better as the game progressed and by the end our pressing did tell – Bournemouth could not mount any kind of consistent last push and started pinging more and more aimless long balls in the 2nd half (which is exactly what Lijnders predicted in his analysis).
For me it was all very positive, except for being reminded how shite Lovren is, low confidence of Allen and Toure's inability to last more than 20 minutes in a competitive game. The kids did alright.
What are you smoking?

I think we looked quite composed in the second half and put some decent play together. You rather have to accept that Origi cannot play off the last defender at this point, which means that we have a lot of players who want to drop off into the same space, and that we won't have tons of goal threat. What was promising today is that we saw some decent wing play, and you have to think that Ibe can get his way into the team, which is great. You wanted to believe he was just having problems with confidence in a pretty toxic situation. Also, hopefully we won't have to deal without Benteke & Sturridge for long, but if we do, I think Firmino can play as part of a front two in some games, if need be.
You have to be impressed by Firmino today, he's really quick, he has great little touches, he plays really good passes, he moves the ball on quickly, he's good on the dribble, and he has real strength. He's got everything you want in a player in the premier league and he could do a lot for us.
Allen on the other hand showed that he's not a DM (what a surprise), but also that he could well be the forgotten midfielder if he doesn't make better decisions. Lucas came on and we controlled the game, and had far fewer issues getting the ball out of defense.
I thought it was encouraging. I mean, its not some massive result but there were lots of good things to take out of the performance for me. On the other hand, none of the really young players on the outskirts really made any impression for me, and some looked like it was a bridge too far.
