Football 5th-6th Feb 2011 **SPOILERS**

Well, halfway and have to say the Liverpool game plan is working quite nicely. In fact, considering the squads, Liverpool actually should be 1-0 up which is the surprise.
 
If Chelsea score early in the 2nd half I think they'll run away with it as Liverpool open up.

Liverpool are playing like a Championship side playing a Prem side in the cup.
 
Why is this guy...........................in for Richard Keys pausing after everything he says?.......................................Really annoying
 
Liverpool are sitting back and soaking Chelsea up pretty nicely. Unless Ancelotti tells them to push up more this half, I can see the same happening for the next 45 minutes.

I reckon a header from a corner's going to open this. Not nearly enough good play along the ground with either team.

Understandable though, I mean 90% of the pundits had Chelsea to destroy Liverpool. On paper Chelseas team is about 10 times as good as Liverpools and their frontline is the best in the league. As mentioned earlier, a draw...by any means, will be considered quite a success for Liverpool and a bit of a failure for Chelsea. Liverpool wont be interested in playing attractive attacking football today which might leave them open, instead they will do whatever is needed to ensure that they get something from the game and so far its worked quite well.
 
WTF Maxi. Not the first time he's done retarded things with the ball :(

Been alright from Liverpool, but still haven't ironed out the sloppyness in their play completely. Loved it when carragher denied Torres, who by the way looks kinda gay in a chelsea shirt.

I agree that it's understandable. It's a difficult one, if they do end up conceding it's difficult to then change the mindset, and the whole gameplan is out of the window so heads can drop.

More gay than a week ago when he played in pink and white? :confused:
 
Poor first half. Sky seem more bothered about Torres then the actual game.

Chelsea have been poor, not pushing forward enough and not supporting them enough, dare I saw too narrow?

Liverpool are just playing that ye old famous formation 1-10-1 :p Doing well at killing off the Chelsea attacks, a set piece could settle or at least open this up.

I think had Woy being playing this negative he'd be getting lynched. Carragher has been by far Liverpool's best player and probably the best so far in a fairly dull game.
