LFCMadPaul Posted February 23, 2007 Share Posted February 23, 2007 Shows how much you know about the recent up turn in uniteds form. No comment on scoreline with this, but even if we lose its no biggy Without being overly confident .... below are the reasons i believe we will take the points .................

You are trying to make out liverpool are a very attacking side, when they aren't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sufc_tom Posted February 23, 2007 Share Posted February 23, 2007 Where did i state that? Will your two behave thi'sens Hard game for us, if someone offered me a low scoring draw I would snap their hands off. Realistically, I am predicting defeat but we have scared all the big clubs at some point this season so why change the precedent now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Realistically, I am predicting defeat but we have scared all the big clubs at some point this season so why change the precedent now? I reckon liverpool will win 1-0 with a last minute counter attacking goal after soaking up 89 minutes of pressure. Scorer: Titi Camara. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LFCMadPaul Posted February 23, 2007 Share Posted February 23, 2007 Where did i state that? you said that liverpool are not an attacking side ............ so therefore that must mean they will defend (attack is the opposite to defend FYI) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
