Liverpool vs Leige

YNWA!


Well, tonight will be one of the biggest home game since the season begins. A must win match against Belgian champion; Standard Leige.

Rafa's team has been winning 2 league matches on the trot but their performance have come under heavy fire. Scrappy at best against teams (including Standard) they are supposed to steamrolled over. Last weekend home match against Boro is a good example. We gave away possession too many times too easily and our set pieces are crap! Even Xabi had a nighmare game. Only intervention from the vice captain and the captain ensured a dramatic last minute come from behind win. Frankly speaking, Boro deserved at least a point!

Such were our poor show, the only positive that we can take is that the mentality to win has improved. Never say die attitude and make your own luck. Rafa has gave assurance that tonight the team will play much better and deliver! A scored draw will mean end of the road for us.

With basically a full team to pick on and playing at Anfield, I'm sure we'll progress to the group phase. Going past this hurdle will bag us 16million pounds! So much riding on it but with our European pedigree, I'm 100% sure we'll make it!


You'll Never Walk Alone!
