I don't think they can expect a barrage of crosses today.
We win and results go or way...
Will we hear this again ?

I really hope we don't fuck this up, I don't think it'll be an easy game, they'll fight for everything and we won't be afforded the time on the ball we had against Arsenal, they'll no doubt look at that and try to press us. Hopefully the early hooks for Suarez, Sturridge and Gerrard will pay dividends. At least we have the option of an extra midfielder with Allen back, should we get out fought again in the middle of the park, as we have in quite a few away games.
Same team?
Same team?
I really hope we cross it only a couple of times all game, and score from each of them.
Tonight is massive for us. If we win. and as you say, other results go our way, then we might be able to start to dream.
Fulham is one of those grounds though that we seem to fancy ourselves in. We've had some cracking wins there. Both Studge and Suarez have had great nights there. We can't arrive expecting to win, but if we get in the ascendancy, I fancy us to tear them apart.
Hopefully Doc. As always, an early goal would be great.
You're excused. Just this once like.
It'd be fucking amazing if we could approach this like a home game, try & get it won in the first half hour.
I doubt it'll happen though. They will be pressing us from the off & won't be trying to stretch their play so they won't be exposed.
I suspect if we don't score in the first 20 mins it could get scrappy with tired legs on both sides, in which case hopefully the fact they had a more tiring game a day later will tip the scales in our favour.

... and Palace!
Palace don' have a hope. Even under Pulis. I'm not looking forward to the Palace trip for us, I have to say. It will be like Stoke with a longer journey home.
Oh shit, I thought this was a home game for them. 2-0-10 away from home... erm... com'on Ince!
They'll play Parker to manmark Coutinho
If Coutinho plays like he did on Sat we can get them all over the place

That's genuinely abysmal. We've come a long way
What game was it?
I think it was the Fulham game in 2010, hence me posting it in here, I might be wrong though.
I was wrong, it was this http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/europe/9243814.stm
It will be a very tough game. But you feel that if we show up and play to our strengths - we should win.
They're knackered from sunday. So if we get the game under control and score first you'd think they'll give up a bit.
If they keep it at 0-0 for a long while or take the lead they'll be fighting all over the pitch
Its a massive game and we desperatly need a win.
Same team for me.

The Mancs played into Fulham's hands with their incessant crossing. If we play our own game and we're at or close to our best, they won't be able to handle us.
That said, we have to make sure we *are* on our game, because that point against ManUre will have made them think they have a chance.

The difference? That was the last minute and that was in April and the difference was less points. So to answer your question: no.
Plus the weather down here is biblical at the moment!
What?
So the reports on rain & wind on the radio are all lies? The weather is just made up?!
We are going to the Michael Jackson Theatre for a win. I'm hoping that Suarez and Coutinho get in amongst the goals. It will only boost us further in our belief that the leaders can be caught. We have to get the results and our league position will take care of itself. With Citeh and the Chavs still coming to Fortress Anfiled, I'm more than hopeful. Bring it lads!
