The Merseyside Derby Build Up Thread

[efcfanwirral]

I'd prefer he was honest. We've won 1 in the last 9. Draws aren't good form for me.

It's one comment yeah, I'm not really crying about it. It just seems unnecessary when he could just say we're hoping to use the derby as a catalyst for the rest of the season having underperformed so far

But dont forget we've been playing better than our results suggest apart from the hull game....

Sky and all Liverpool fans might Aswell call Saturdays derby Stevie g day.

 

[EFCPaul]

Nothing, absolutely nothing, would give me greater satisfaction than ruining that [Poor language removed]'s farewell. Also the already written articles bias journalists have ready. Can't remember the last time I wanted to win a derby this much, even though there's nothing but pride at stake really.

.....the Sky advert makes you wonder if we are playing. all about Slippy Steve to a chorus of YNWA.

Been the same on BBC Sport website mate. Home page has Gnashers smug grid, click on the football tab, and hey-presto, 5 or 6 RS players greet you.

Must be in recognition of their historic slaying of the mighty Bolton Wanderers, (after a replay, 2 late goals, and a sending off), which was only the second time in 60 plus years they had beaten them in the FA Cup. Apparently.

I just hope we make a game of it,to many times we play them the whole team look nervous,when we go a head the players just look nervous recks.The cup semi final was a good example,it's probably best if we keep it tight and don't score to early as I can just see us sitting on a lead and we all know what's to come if we do that,some thing like this Everton 1,Lukaku,25 Liverpool 2,struridge,88 Gerrard,90 (Pen) please oh please don't let this happen.

.......all this big goodbye stuff, I don't remember the same for the likes of Lampard when he left Chelsea. He could actually play in another Derby if we play them in the Europa.

As for last night even with 5 mins to go I was certain the Reds would progress. It's not bitterness, it was inevitable.

 

[The Dunc]

Ffs Jags, I don't want to hear our captain saying it's not a make or break game. I want to hear him say it means everything to him and all the players and they're desperate to ground the rs into the dirt.

 

[bourneblue]

Dunno if I'm happy or not that my lad wants my missus to go with him instead of me...He knows from past derbies that I do not deal well with defeat against the RS. Fume is not even close...anyways, my missus and my 7 year old are off the game and I've booked my space on the couch with a crate where I can fume to my hearts content! S*!t supporter or not, I absolutely hate derbies!!!

That's the very same reason I'am not taking the game in with my daughter, it would take me a couple of days to unleash my anger before i drove home.

 

[Roberto.]

Stop Coutinho at all costs. Likes of Sterling and Sturidge are a threat obviously but Coutinho is their main man right now. He's been annoying good for the last 2 months.

I don't even care what the score is. I just don't want that smug [Poor language removed] Stevie Me scoring. I'd take a 3-0 defeat as long as that [Poor language removed] didn't score.

Still laughing at, 'the Premier League's greatest ever player,' Jesus Christ. He's not even in the conversation.

Sky are embarrassing.

Two penalties and either Barry or Besic off before half-time.
