How good does it feel being able to start a thread with that title? 

Regardless of who wins the other semi, other than the Super Cup and the mickey mouse World Club Championship last year, this will be the first major final since the UEFA win against Alaves where we'll go in as clear favourites.

And frankly I don't think either Boro or West Ham will have a prayer.

Congratulations to the school of 2006 - it was an excellent result against Chelsea.

Well I suppose the first Q should be: Who would you rather face?

I think I'd rather face Boro' because a) they're gonna be knackered b) they can be really dodgy and c) West Ham can be quite a tough little outfit.

i would say west ham because boro r better at making gd teams look bad

I think the Youth team have shown us the way...let's end the season with a trophy again!

Exactly....boro can perform like world beaters 1 day...and a conference team the next week....

Furthermore they have viduka & hasselbank who love to score against us (especially hasselbank).

I rather we face west-ham..... but we can beat boro too (if we play to our strength).

If we played like we did in the first half then any of them we will murder that was a great game by the lads today.

Fa cup final Here we come

boro in the first leg of their uefa cup semi final were abysmal, no doubt yakubu and hassielbank are very dangerous on their day, but if they display the touch and technique they did the other night, we've got no problems. Viduka is playing well, and while they can turn it on every once in a while, we would do well to avoid west ham as i think they could prove to be a very tough opponent in a final

[Dimshen]

oh yeah, great result lads! thoroughly deserved win! Bring on the silverware!

[akumaface]

Let's hope West ham win and we will double our chances. I'm quite worry about Viduka if Boro got in.

It's looking like a good final whoever wins tomorrow.  As a Liverpool fan you want to play a team you can beat, but not one where you're streets ahead because that's a no-win situation.  It'll be a great achievement to win the FA Cup whoever we play.  (Remember how it all started this season, another classic Liverpool comeback.)

[Bad Bob]

I'm not bothered either way to be honest...if we come in focused and play our game they could both turn up and we'd still win!

I do think it will be interesting if it's to be West Ham, however, given that we still have to play them in the league (this Wednesday, in fact) before the final.  I envision us fielding half the reserve team at Upton Park in that situation, which might be a nice occasion for the likes of Anderson, Barragan, Calliste and others.  We can't rest Pepe and some our first choice defenders, though...I want that single-season clean sheet record equalled/broken this season!

No more comebacks in a major final .......I want a comfortable win.   

[adamnbarrett]

Either way there is going to be a toss for colours

[pur3 rav3r]

Let's hope West ham win and we will double our chances. I'm quite worry about Viduka if Boro got in.

yeah i'm worried about that aswell and the other 2 strikers wat when they want can preform very well

I'll salute that. I don't think I can take another one like 25.05.05!!! My heart was bounding against Chelsea and we were winning for 70 minutes!
