Match Day Thread It's on!!!!

is your avatar some weird ****ing irony

 

Raging squad hard-on.

 

Liverpool Vs Manchester / Salford

So in the course of one week, we play City twice , shortly followed by united twice in the course of one week.

How sublime would it be to smash the Gtr Manchester cities 4 times in that space of time?

 

sadly, reality says they are higher in the table and have won the 4 last meetings!

#astros_reality more like.

Hopefully law of averages says it might be Pool's turn

 

To think fans were worrying about / hoping to draw one another in the CL semis in 2007 and 2008.

Now bragging rights will be about making the last 8 of the Europa league!!

 

Winner of the comp gets a place in the CL.
So this competition has its worth nowadays, especially since its extremely unlikely that either Pool or United will qualify for the CL via the league.

 

The last meeting they were totally outplayed and got a lucky smash and grab

Like I said before, maybe they will get lucky again, probably not though.

The other games you mention was a different manager so what is the relevance? What is the relevance of Man Utd's 3 point PL lead? Especially given we're now 6th in the form table whereas they still can't get top half, so we're probably going to be above them by the time the games are played anyway.

 

Us vs Dortmund in the final. That would be special, sorry, normal

 

tough choice for astro here, balls on the block or balls on the dry fence post ... maybe we should have a poll

 

Actually we might not be above them and will just have a game in hand instead. You know, because we have to go play a cup final instead.

 

You have been saying this since Christmas though Astro........
Again, you have a point, in terms of form etc.
But anything can happen.

 

Personally I like what Klopp's said about wanting the game, needing to 'clear something' and having something to prove against them after the last game. We'll be a danger for them

 

I've been saying it longer than that.

Yeah things happen, like us having the biggest injury crisis of any PL team (even though #bbcsalford only ever cover Man Utd's).

I started #vangaal4life Dec 28, 2014. It's not my fault everyone else (including the Mancs) has only just caught up #footballgenius

 

Big games, but gonna be a bit of a bore fest I think with two average teams

 

I mean you have been saying you will be above them soon since Christmas and here were are, nearly in March, and you are still behind them, albeit by only 3 points.

You are only 5 points ahead of us too
I would bet money on Chelsea finishing above both of you at this point

 

Astro, don't get your knickers in a twist.,everything you say is subjective opinion, not reality#

Form table mean **** all in the end. Christ almighly, some utd fans got deluded by their earlier run this season and started talking about titles ffs!
Also Pools form is nothing to shout about!

I hope pool smash em over the tie but the reality remains that they are above us in the table and have won the last 4 games.

 

Our form under Klopp is we get to the final in 50% of cups we play in

 

So 50/50 then, just like Bodanki said TBF!

 

Nope, it's 50/50 for the final, which means it's about 90/10 for this round
