Although it was for family reasons, it's now nigh on impossible to believe that red scouse pool used to be my second Team.

Some things you just keep to yourself. Dirty fucking secret but it’s your secret.

Feeling reasonably calm about the game at the moment. Not sure if that's just because I have low expectations every time we go to Anfield, or whether it's an underlying confidence that we might actually get a result today. Either way, the title isn't going to be decided today.

Started getting twitchy yesterday and worse this morning. If there's a winner today then i think whoever it is will go on and win the title.

Yes. We have won there only twice since 1981 and one was with no crowd due to covid.

Christ almighty......so, even after spending £billions we can't beat them??

100 percent agree . Next weeks game will have more of an impact as arsenal are really flying arm and yesterday they showed fighting spirit .

If Konate is out, Quansah is likely to replace him, as they'd lack height otherwise. Then the right side of their defence might be Quansah and Bradley... Combined with Allison's absence, they'll be shitting bricks thinking what might happen IF we are at our very best today.

Tbh, they had injuries last season too (Konate, TAA and Diaz weren't in the starting XI and they played Milner at RB) and won 1:0. Let's see what happens this season. In any case, we should target both FBs, especially the RB.

It's like having 4 derby days a season now with this red dippers. Jesus, my poor old heart!

If this was played in the last 3 or 4 rounds of games, the pressure and overall atmospshere would be absolutely crazy and ironically it would work in our favour as our lads are used to such circumstances.

Liverpool know they can basically do what they want today. How many times have players like Milner, Tiago, Fabinho spent 90 mins fouling our players and very rarely do any get yellow cards never mind reds

Oliver is the perfect ref for them, absolute spineless and intimidated by the crowd, Klopp and the Media. Just look to his history reffing their games and including the incredibly one sided officiating for them v the Rags a few months ago where he booked the Rags midfield early (almost unheard of for the Rags to pick up cards early) then after giving Nunez a clear yellow he completely bottled issuing a 2nd yellow for clear dissent yet later in the same game had no issue giving a 2nd yellow for Dalot for the same thing.
The fact that the only game we have had officiated there for years without a bent key decision or 2 in their favour was when there was no crowd allowed, the season they lost quite a few at home as no crowd to intimidate the refs

We're due then.
