I honestly dislike Jonas Olsson. Unfair cheating prick of a Swede.
Yeah fuck that SOB.
Hopefully. Along with sterling.
This game is massive eh? I can't remember the last time we made a real statement on the first game of the season.
Given we've got a run of real tough games after tomorrow it's imperative we get off to a flyer and build confidence in both Rodgers vision and our ability to turn it into 3 points tomorrow.
I'm strangely confident we'll both get the right result and put a marker down tomorrow.

I think we're going to play a very fluid set-up. Wingers can, in general, operate on either side; the only think different is cutting in when they're on the opposite side. I see all three as moving around those positions. When Luis floats wide, Borini will come into the centre, and both will be in the centre when Assaidi is out wide.
On the game itself, I'm glad it's almost here. I'm like a horny dog who hasn't seen his owner's leg for three months; I'll be all over it when it's finally here. To make it even worse, our last three games have been progressively good. We're improving how we play and we're tucking the ball into the net.
If we can keep it up, and keep improving, I think we're in for a decent season. We'll be a match for anybody if we continue putting the chances we create into the back of the red nets. West Brom fans seem, judging from their chatter on the forums, like they're confident and that our defence is soft. We've scored seven and conceded one in our last three, but there's no telling 'em.
I think Allen will play from the start, as will Lucas and Gerrard. Suarez, Borini and maybe Downing. We've got plenty enough in the tank to hurt them, but we need to watch out for Lakuku. He's a beast. A victory is a must, we need to burst out of the traps this time; straight up and at them. I don't care too much about the style in the early days, but we need to cunt them in the bastard and take three points.
Agreed across board. Was just worried as looking at the clips our new guy loves coming on his strong foot from the left, something we all known Rodgers likes. I worry because Borini has been doing that so far, although theirs nothing stopping Borini playing on the right, as he's good with both feet.
As for tomorrow, I feel exactly the same as you in excitment, prediction and fears. So glad the season is finally here, lets see us play like we did against Gomel and slaughter West Brom, please.
If you're talkin about assaidi then no he won't be on the bench. Would have had to be signed before midday today to be eligible
Isn't it 5pm today?
Oh. I thought it was midday as i heard it mentioned about van persie being eligible to play Monday cos he was signed before midday today.
Could be totally wrong
i could be wrong too, read somewhere he was never going to play tomorrow anyway, so the deadline thing doesn't really matter i suppose
I'm am incredibly, amazingly excited about tomorrow.
I seriously cannot fucking wait. I've checked my setanta Ireland channel about a hundred and fifty times now to check it's still working! Got two mates coming round & I'm gonna splash out & get some stupidly cheap French stubbies!

Its not bad, I'd have sterling instead of Cole on the bench & Enrique instead of Kelly with Kelly taking Coates place on the bench.
Kelly isn't convincing me anymore. I think he's far more suited to cb.
I think the guess is that Enrique isn't fully fit.
Of course he could have just skipped that part of training today.
I am like a kid on Christmas evening night as well.
One more sleep🙁
Everyone's so up for this match that it's almost a certainty that we're gonna lose.
Thought they didnt show Live Premier League football for everyone except those based in Ireland(the south)?
Remember getting Setenta in two years ago and was fucking fuming they cut the Live Premier League games.
Same.
As for Kelly, i can't take to him, looked like a top player in the making a few years ago but now he's dodgy - slow on the turn and out of position all to often.
Not looking that way but I hope I got it wrong and he's on the bench.
Flanagan might be a sub as well.
