loads of balls into the box and pressure on him then, i no it may be cruel but if he's fit then he's fit.
no "but watch his head sentiments"

Hey jkop, whats with the funny look? Wasn't sure how to enter my first post in on the forum, but then I saw something that I felf I should comment on eh and it just happened. I hope I can have some good input!

Didnt mean it in a bad way, just didnt know what way to take your post, its all ok mate.

As Rafael Benitez prepares for his 100th league match in charge of the Reds he can justifiably look back with pride on a record that is superior to almost all of his recent predecessors in the Anfield hot-seat.

Rafa's first 99 Prem games
Won: 55
Drew: 18
Lost: 26

With 55 wins already under his belt, Benitez boasts a better record than that achieved by Bob Paisley (54), Gerard Houllier (49), Roy Evans (4 and Graeme Souness (40) over the same period, while victory over the Champions at Anfield tomorrow will see the Spaniard equal the tally of legendary Scot Bill Shankly (56).

By contrast Arsene Wenger won 54 at Arsenal and Alex Ferguson 45 at Manchester United.

and rafa said that it is a shame they haven't won more when you look at some of the game we have lost....pure class

and we have played 20 more cup games than any other lfc team in the same time frame

from lfc.tv:

MARK COULD WING THE BLUES
 
Mark Gonzalez is in contention to face Chelsea at Anfield on Saturday, Rafa Benitez has confirmed. 
It was initially feared the Chilean winger would be out for three weeks after he was stretchered off with a bruised shin against Arsenal in the League Cup last Tuesday.

personally, i wouldn't want gonzo on the wing on saturday, maybe coming on late on  for something different, but i would prefer to see riise/aurelio on the left

[gary106]

redman i agree, he gets lost in games against mediocre teams never mind chelsea

[redsince2001]

we have to stop robben and drogba.....those two are in great from at the moment..........

* form

[Lando_Griffin]

Very tough match.

I wouldn't like to think Riise would play, particularly at left-back, as he will get wankered on current form.

I think 3-4-3 would be our best bet with the current injuries, lining up thus:

                                             Reina

                            JC              Sami            Agger

Finnan                   Gerrard                  Alonso                         Aurelio

                 Bellamy                                            Kuyt

                                           Crouch.


Pressure the feckers' goal, and NO STUPID MISTAKES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It will be tough.

It is unlikely.

But it can be done.

[brenitez]

agree with that team lando.....maybe riise in for aurelio. these lot are there for the taking rafa..............UNLEASH HELL!!!......

[annie road]

can any true pool supporter agree with rednose ferguson and hope that manure win the league ahead of chelski?

[annie road]

can any true pool supporter agree with rednose ferguson that manure win the league as they dont really like chelski

[RedBlood]

personally i would rather chelsea win the league than man u because as much as i hate them both i only know 1 chelsea fan where as i know tons of man u fans and i cant be ars.ed listening to them gloat for a year.

as far as this game goes i think the 3-5-2 formation that lando used looks good and would try it but have pennant and gonzalez on the bench to revert to 4-4-2 if it doesnt work

[metalhead]

I'm afraid of Drogba. He is scoring goals for fun now and hopefully on saturday i can hold him tightly

you never know some folk
