Reds V Chelski

I am starting to get excited already about this one. We have had a fair start to the season without setting the world alight and Chelski come to Anfield for a re-match of last years semi-final. Seven wins out of seven for the Blues and looking for revenge. After our incredible triumph in Istanbul last season our CL story which could have been scripted in Hollywood continues.

What were the odds we would draw Chelski in our group? Well we have and I am sure Raffa has something up his sleeve to try and outfox Mourhino.

Having been at Anfield for the Semi last season I can without reservation state I had never previously witnessed an atmosphere quite like it. I seem to recall Ontour was their for his first match at Anfield I can't imagine what it must have been like for him. I do not think the atmosphere will be as white hot on Wednesday for several reasons. The main being that whatever the result on Wednseday we can still both qualify for the knockout stages.
Also the fact that it is not the Semi-final second leg! I do believe though that our 12th man the Anfield crowd will be making themselves heard and get right behind our team. Nobody is even talking about the Prem match on Sunday!

So, to the match. I think if we can nullify Makalele which will be no easy task this is where the game will be won. I believe Crouch will cause the Blues defence serious problems but just who Raffa is going to play alongside him even if he plays him we will just have to wait and see. I believe we have not had a great deal off luck this season so maybe we have been saving it up fot this one. if we can get 3 points from this one we are all but guaranteed a place in the next round.

tres beau match.j'ai hate d'y etre.je suis sur que chelsea n'est pas imbattable et nos reds vont le faire!!!

SI on joue comme depuis le debut de la saison c'est mal barre...en meme temps chelsea joue pas top top non plus...mon cote pessimiste me dit qu'on va perdre 1/0a pres avoir domine le match sans avoir de grosses ocas...
Mais si on joue avec crouch et cisse devant , ou meme sans crouch ça peut changer

I have no idea who Raffa will start with, Crouch,Cisse ,Morienetes, Pongolle who knows but I am not going to make any predicitions here as I don't want to bring any bad luck on us. I think that for me over the last 5 games we have played them. with the exception of the prem match at Stamford Bridge last season when we were 2nd best. The only difference between us has been who had the luck and who didn't so if lady luck shines on us tomorrow?????

c'est clair si ils etaient un peu moins chanceux ca serait pas du tout la meme!

pour moi, la solution : pas de complexe, attaquer et attaquer encore quitte à finir sur les genoux, et c'est là qu'il faut faire tourner l'effectif pas avant un gros match. liverpool a toujours fonctionné comme celà dans ses joutes européennes passées. le soutien du public sera d'autant plus présent si le spectacle et présent et si les joueurs montrent une envie énorme.

Ce sera quand meme un match fermé sur la saison chelsea nous ait superieur mais pas sur un match de coupe . Je pense que pour les entraineurs un petit match nul arrangeraitl le coté championnat de la cl mourinho joue le contre et rafa le laissera venir mais on va leur botter le cul 1-o terry csc a la 92°

moi je pense qu'il faut jouer de la même manière que contre MU en espérant que cette fois-ci la chance sera avec nous.
pas besoin de recette magique pour les battre, il faut faire pressing, gagner les duels, varier notre jeu, être à la retombée du ballon, éviter les déchets techniques et surtout tenir face à leurs attaques.
je pense que comme le dit rafa: "chelsea peut être battue, mais il faut que nous soyons à 100% de nos capacités, contrairement à eux qui n'ont pas besoin d'être aussi bien pour gagner des matches (la preuve leurs victoires en championnat sans la manière).

c'st clair il faut attaquer à outrance les harceler jusqu'a que ca craque enfin!!

Some interesting response here but I don't believe Raffa will send out his team with any other idea than to play we did at home in the CL last year. Then combine this with the fact that Chelsea will probably play as they did away from home in the CL last year. basically you have 2 counter attacking sides who are very solid in defence. I think Chelsea will try to keep it as tight as possible for at least the first 20 minutes and hope they give our supporters nothing to cheer. If they can silence the fans then they will try to take advantage of any opportunities.

I think to try and go out and attack Chelsea gung ho from the start would be doing exactly what they want. We need to keep the ball and search for the key to unlock their defence. Crouch if he plays will find it tough to win many high balls against the 2 Chelsea centre backs.

As I said above for me it will all rest on a little bit of luck going with us or against us. I don't believe any of the hype being put out by Mourhino and his players about revenge. There are 3 CL points at stake here and I think Chelsea would be happy to go away with one of them.

oui mais plus que les 3 points c'est au niveau psychologique que ca leur ferai du bien.nos reds prendraient confiance en eux et chelsea en prendra peut etre aun coup au moral...qui sait?

True Redman but this will only be an effect of the result it will not make a difference as to how the match will be played.

I think that we have a good chance of beating Chelsea if we play how we have been, consistent steady and with a more steady defence. I also personally feel a lot more comfortable with this seasons Goalkeeper!

Does anyone know which French TV channel the match will be shown on please?

Liverpool - Chelsea : 2-0

I'm afraid you won't be able to see the game on NOOS, mate.

le mieux serait de jouer avac un attaquant mais deux renfort avec gerrard et garcia derriere cisse.Je pense que cela pourrait faire la difference plus il y aura d'occasions,plus il y aura de chance que ça rentre,surtout avec la vitesse de djibril qui lui peut faire la difference face a terry.
Mais surtout ne pas subir leur jeux,garder le ballon,et bloquer makelele et essien qui va faire un gros match.

moi perso je vois une belle victoire 2/1 avec un doublé de gerrard il se sente trop facile allez
