Sorry king, update now its 10 game, 9 win, 1 draw. Blackburn who was not having a good run in the last few games managed a 2-2 draw at Man C home ground.

Re: Liverpool Fc Anfield - Reds Supporters Gatherings
 

Bro KingEros I like your faith in Liverpool. I also want them to win every game and to win it convincingly.:)

Bro rahl you really pick a tough assignment for me to do. Or maybe some other bro can do it?

I noticed it to. Hopefully we continue to be in top form and not drop any more points. Pray that Arsenal and Man U will drop points along the way . Then maybe we have some hope.

Good update. Maybe we can have some luck to win.

Go Liverpool Go.

You see, the difference is ... I only wish for them to win EVERY game, not necessary CONVINCINGLY.
In the years when LFC was the team reigning supreme domestically & on European soil, they were constantly winning matches by one solitary goal, scored in the last 10-15 minutes of the game. :D

Actually, as a betting man, you should be wishing the same too ...
Only this way, will the odds be better for LFC supporters. I mean, what's the point of LFC winning 4-0 all the time ... & end up getting odds of $1.50 at -1.5 goals?? Ridiculous right??

You still dun get it ...
He's just trying to make you go through the pains yourself, before realising that there's no concrete evidence supporting the theory that Rafa's rotation policy is flawed.

Trust me ... if the other clubs (less the Big 4) have a squad like ours where even internationals are sitting on the bench, their mamagers would be practising the rotation system as well. :D

Re: Liverpool Fc Anfield - Reds Supporters Gatherings
 

Mr Rafa had said that 'best is yet to come' fr Liverpool.
Hope that he knws that at the moment in his team,no1 k replace Fernando Torres.
They must overcome ManC on 30/12 at City of Manchester Stadium.
Then comes Wigan at home next Weds,boro away on 12/1,Villa on 21/1 & hammer on 29/1.
U play 2 go 4 winning the big thing.
They shld still think positively till it is mathematically impossible 2 catch the leader.
If they hv the mentality like when they face Marseille,then they will definitely k hv a go @ anything.

Re: Liverpool Fc Anfield - Reds Supporters Gatherings
 

And not forgetting Pool has 3 away matches to the top 3, none of whom they managed to beat on home ground...

Re: Liverpool Fc Anfield - Reds Supporters Gatherings
 

Maybe we can manage to get a point from each of the game? Or our luck holds out maybe can spring a couple of surprises. :D

Re: Liverpool Fc Anfield - Reds Supporters Gatherings
 

It wont be easy but getting a draw from each game doesnt help at all...

We only maintain the gap, not closing it..

Re: Liverpool Fc Anfield - Reds Supporters Gatherings
 

Actually, I have more faith in their away games ...

2 simple reasons:
1) at home, they are expected to win while away, they are not ... so less pressure
2) at home, with the expectation, they have to initiate the attacking continuously while away, they can play counter-attack ... which is their forte

Re: Liverpool Fc Anfield - Reds Supporters Gatherings
 

The problem with Pool when it comes to difficult ties in the league is always one of mentality. When it's a cup game, we have always raised our game and we have beaten the rest of the top four. I just haven't seen the same self-belief and will to win in the league games. The home game against Scum was a good example - we showed them too much respect.

If we can have this 'cup final' mentality, we can win the away games. A big if. But we will need to stay in touch with the leaders till those games come around. So let's take care of Man City first.

Re: Liverpool Fc Anfield - Reds Supporters Gatherings
 

If the players played like the way they play the Portsmouth game we should have no problem.

Extracted from Liverpool FC

Liverpool boss Rafael Benitez reckons the "best is yet to come" from his side and in particular their goalscoring sensation Fernando Torres.

Benitez knows the Reds must continue their winning ways at Manchester City on Sunday and then against Wigan next Wednesday to retain the momentum they need for a continued Premier League title challenge.

With Arsenal, Chelsea and Manchester City all dropping points this week, Benitez can sense an opportunity - starting at Eastlands against Sven-Goran Eriksson's fifth-placed side.

Torres, with 15 goals in 18 games, is a certainty to start - the Spaniard's precision a key element for Liverpool.

Benitez dismisses suggestions that all realistic hope of the title has gone.

With the Reds nine points behind leaders Manchester United - albeit with a game in hand - the Spaniard said: "My team can do better, and so can Fernando.

"He has settled well in England - but he can still learn more.

"Our season has not been bad, but it could be better. We are in a good position. It could be better, but the best of us is still to come."

Benitez sees plenty of signs from his team that they are capable of significant improvement.

"We move the ball quickly; we make a lot of chances - and we must keep doing this but also we must be more clinical," he prescribes.

"We must score in key moments - that has been the area where we can improve more.

"I believe we can still win the league, but we must concentrate on continuing the way we have been over Christmas.

"Before the holiday period we hoped for a good spell; now we have six points and two wins, and we will see what happens against Manchester City and Wigan."

Benitez expects to be without defender Sami Hyypia, who has an ankle injury, and must decide whether to risk Danish youngster Daniel Agger in his first match for three months following a broken metatarsal.

He could alternatively switch Alvaro Arbeloa into the heart of defence alongside Jamie Carragher, or draft in teenage rookie Jack Hobbs.

But even with such problems, Benitez still has confidence in his squad.

"Now we are a little bit closer to the top, at the end of the holiday period we may be a bit closer still," he suggests.

"Others have dropped points - we must make sure we do not.

"We have confidence we can win away games; we have produced good away form. At the moment we cannot make any more mistakes, but if our rivals drop points like they have done we could find ourselves in a fantastic position."

Much will depend on Torres continuing his hot streak, but Benitez still wants more from the ex-Atletico Madrid star.

He says: "Fernando is playing well, scoring goals and showing character and quality. He has settled down really well in England and he is playing well but can play better.

"He is only 23; he can improve and learn. He can play better than we have seen so far."

Meanwhile Benitez maintains he will be able to do business in the transfer window.

"We will try to find the right player at the right price. We have talked - there are no problems, because we do think the same way," he said of himself and Liverpool's owners.

"We will continue to work, like every club, to improve our squad.

"We will try to do the same; if we can find the right players at the right price maybe we can do some business.

"If we cannot, we will try to improve what we have. But I believe I can go to the board and ask if the right player comes along - and I think they would say yes.

"We are not thinking about selling any of our players, because we will need them for the rest of the season.

"We have the FA Cup, the Premier League and the Champions League. We are not thinking about letting anyone leave."
