What do you expect from the Reds against Blackburn next week? Post your thoughts here.

by **Ciggy** » Sun Oct 24, 2004 11:32 pm

4-0 to us

by **A.B.** » Sun Oct 24, 2004 11:39 pm

I'm gonna say 3-1.

I think Blackburn are in pieces at the moment and while I think they will eventually pull themselves out of it, it won't be against us.

Liverpool to win.

I remember about 6 or 7 years ago Blackburn has a sh*te start to the season and bounced back by beating us 3-0 at Ewood Park but can't see that happening - they're a shadow of the side they used to be so think we should take 3 points quite comfortably, even away from home. Their defence looks weak and their confidence is in tatters so let's batter 'em

Hopefully against a weak side Cisse & Baros can have some success and get their confidence lifted a bit

i personally dnt think its a question off will we beat them its a question of how many goals will they concede if baros and cisse gel proably 4-0 or 5-0 otherwise it will be 2-0.

I don't think Blackburn are bad enough to lose 3 games in row 4-0, and they'll put 11 men behind the ball and frustrate us, but we should have enough to win.

I agree. Blackburn will score against us but at the end we should be able to collect three points there. If not than that would be a huge disapointment. We need to win games against unstable teams.

by **JBG** » Mon Oct 25, 2004 12:42 am

Yes.

The main thing is to win the Blackburn game and while I think Blackburn will show an improvement, we will nick it.

I'm worried about us not being able to make something out of the chances we make. I do not mind our midfield scoring for most of the time, infact I like when our midfield players score but we need to score when we have a clear chance.

It is a worry AB and I think it will be important that we take our chances against Blackburn as they won't stand for being whipped again.

It would be criminal for Hughes not to do something drastic to try and shore up his defence ahead of the game against us, but if we score early I think we'll win with a small bit of daylight between us and them.

After winning against Fulham on the road we will be aggressive against Blackburn, no doubt about that. I'm sure that Benitez will point out to the players that they can not waste chances.

Though when Hyypia's header was cleared off the line by Murphy and when Cisse's free kick was deflected into the post that was pure bad luck really.

by **JBG** » Mon Oct 25, 2004 12:55 am

I'd also like to see Garcia replicating his Anfield form away from home.

by **A.B.** » Mon Oct 25, 2004 12:59 am

Same here. Who will be the most likely to score against Blackburn ?

by **L-type** » Mon Oct 25, 2004 1:06 am

I'm callin 2-0 us in the 34th minute and 82nd minute
Cisse
Kewell (assuming he starts)
