Carling Cup Final - Predictions?

If the Ivory Tower is the brain of the board, and the Transformers discussion is its heart, then General Discussions is the waste disposal pipe. Or kidney. Or something suitably pulpy and soft, like 4 week old bananas.

Carling Cup Final - Predictions?

Post by Hound » Sun Feb 27, 2005 1:49 pm

I think it will be close. Liverpool have a great record in the cups over the last few years, but are horribly inconsistent. To our advantage we have played well against Chelsea twice this season without really getting the result we deserved.

However Chelsea have a had a few results go against them recently and could be dangerous...

Im quite nervous :eek:

looking forward to it, Chelsea narrow faves but Liverpool have more then enough class players to make this game anything but a easy picker.

I'd prefer the 'pool on this one. Just so Mourihno stops being so damn smug all the time.

Going well for the pool so far!

Going to be interesting seeing how Chelsea respond to this.

I think Liverpool are being outplayed. Gerrard has had no influence in midfield and Kewell and Garcia are wasteful

Very surprised Baros was on the bench, he is someone that can really run at people.

Im thinking our 2nd half performance will be better, but Chelsea will raise their game, I expect Gudjonsen will come on, dangerous player...

It will be tight.

Drogba is a diving ****. [composite word including 'f*ck'] off back to France or wherever ever it is you played previously!

I thinkg gerrard is doing what he can, but Kewel needs to like put his brain in gear. - switch to a five man mid, stop CHelski getting wide. play morienties up front, kEwll wide, get some time on the ball.

Gerrard tries to do too much sometimes, hence his own goal, there 2 or 3 players who sjob it is to head balls away. He got in the way

I dont think Liverpool have enough to win this now :(

I feel the same about Campbell. Boith Gerrard and Campbell have to work double inevery game to make up for those around them not being up to their high standards.
