Re: Liverpool Thread
But to compare the two issues, everton released a dvd on winning a match, liverpool are playing the final of the CL
Here Alain:
So in other words our history makes us a massive club but atm we play like a small one focusing on one competition. Its his typical way of having a digg while at the same time protecting himself by giving a complement. I wasnt actually bothered by his comment, as its partly true but then its also near impossible to do (even when spending huge amounts of money). He has the chance to now end up with only the carling cup, id rather focus on one big comp and do it well
And benitez said the same thing, everton played like a small club parking the bus infront of their goal and doing nothing else. Cant really argue with that, liverpool do the same when they play bigger teams (although its mostly barca and i assume milan that are actually "bigger" teams, which is also a relative term anyway and pretty pointless to bicker about).
Like i said in my post, i would rather benitez show his lies up then start with small club blablabla comments.
Anyway, moving on to the final.
I think liverpool have a decent chance tbh, we can use crouch which i think they will have a hard time with, also noticed milan have trouble when they get put under pressure early when in possesion in defense (at OT it happend and they couldnt cope and for a small part of last nights game in the second half they were far less composed and lost the ball at a higher frequency, which brings me to kuyt running his socks off. Also think we need to stop kaka somehow, maybe get mascherano on him. Think benitez has learnt from teh last time when kaka ripped us apart so could be a much closer game this year.
Calling us a little club ...two plonkers if you ask me and not a word of english between them!

Here Alain:
“Historically they are not a big club, they are a monster,” said Mourinho.
“But in the last few years they only succeed in knockout competitions. If any team could be in our position, they would be in it.
"If you are a small club you fight for one competition and forget the others. The big clubs try the maximum they can. The risk is to win everything or win nothing.”
