50 million posts and you start showing your tactical nous. I like that idea kid. Nice work.

The keys to beating liverpool are
1. Follow their midfield runners
2. Mark gerrard tight and dont let him pass long balls
3. Dont be too aggressive on suarez around the penalty area

1.Agree.
2.Ferna will sort that out.
3.Dont tackle them within 20 yards of the box or it will be a penalty.

Exactly - in virtually every area of the pitch we outclass them
If we're good enough to win the league we should approach this game with no fear

Their game plan has already started. Fucking tub thumping in the press radio and tv all fucking week. Forget going there by coach, the team may as well arrive on the fucking death star

You've been waiting a while on that one huh?
You should know it's not me really, I've always had the nous, it's just taken you 17198 posts to realise it.

Precisely.
Let them do all the worrying, whilst we forget all this talk about somehow stopping them and keeping it tight in midfield.
We should go to Anfield looking to play them off the park and attack them from the first minute. I want their 'keeper to contract lumbago through picking the ball out of their net.

Clattenburg, Webb or Mason I reckon.
I have no evidence these refs are bent, but I don't trust them at all.

Interesting that Rodgers cant open his mush these days without mentioning how the pressure is all on City, and also dropping in how much money we've spent. I suppose Mignolet, Johnson, Skrtel, Enrique, Sakho, Cissohko, Allen, Henderson, Coutinho, Sturrdige, Suarez et al were all free then Brendan? He sounds like he's trying to convince himself, but you do get the feeling we will be pissing on everyone's parade - including 90% of the media pundits - if we dare to actually get a result next sunday, as you'd think its a Liverpool procession at present and City and Chelsea are simply there to make up the numbers.
We need to go there with our full attention but also letting them worry about us too. Say nothing in the press, just let our football do the talking.
One other thing - if you are a Blue lucky enough to have a ticket in our end next sunday, please be loud as fucl and get right behind them vociferously and continually.
Of the team that played on Saturday, Clichy in for Kolarov, and Garcia in for Navas.

Well that is just a little bit disturbing.
We all know they want them to win it, but absolutely no way should they be openly showing it.

Mason hates us, as does Foy. The first two are fine, I reckon. Clattenburg has been the best of the lot this season all things considered, alongside Dean, who we don't seem to get anymore.

If I was a City player I would be looking at that and saying..."I don't think so Sunshine"
I'm shocked by some Liverpool fans, they seem to think were some dog and duck outfit. Yaya, Silva, Nasri, Sergio, Kompany, Zaba, Hart all of them would get in Liverpool's team. I have not wanted us to win a game so much in such a long time. We have to shut this lot up.

Nevermind how much the squads cost, this is where our experience has to count. This team has been hardened and tempered in the furnaces of the Allianz and the Camp Nou, so there is no way a little trip down the road to Klanfield is going to be intimidating.
If our lads turn up (no slowness or indifference of the sort we saw v. Chelsea in February) and we get a strong referee, we will get a result.
"Certainly our programme is a full one, but as a player and as a manager I've always felt that there is only one way to go into a season...and that's to try to win every game.... While we are in four major competitions we shall try to win four major competitions." - Joe Mercer
