toshmann:
2:2
not acceptable in anfield. (better than 1:2 though)

the kop is loosing it. but we kopites remain with our team. the boys wont walk alone

Yeah toshmann, I agree with you on that. The boys wont wal alone.

Well Well Well.

Things are not going well for the KOPS

But it doesn't mean that I am loosing hope in them.

We are just six points behind top title chasers, North London Reds.

However, our gaffer must do something fast about the lack of form and free flowing football that is characteristic of Anfield, the Slaughterslab.

The game against spurs, was just yet another of the blemishes of Reina. but if only he can make up subsequently, then,

He tops the premier league's fantasy list for keepers, after so many clean sheets. he is getting porous, and he has to do somethign about it.

Well till then, YNWA.

Its been a while, and so many things have gone under the bridge.

One of those, was our first scoreless match this season in all copetitions.

With jetlags and fatigue, the FA still allowed the week to go on.

Well, I know the KOP will always rally back on.

I expect a drama at the Emirates come the 22nd, and probably another giant score margin at Anfield, hopefully if our stifflers are back from lack of form and injury.

Till then, YNWA

Yeah! We teach others learn.

It has always been like that. And that is why we are England's most successful club.

We teach others learn, We lead, others follow.

For the issue of Everton, they can sulk, atleast we used to be Everton Athletic not until we became th Merseysiders, Reds, Anfield, Liverpool FC.

Hey hommies i cnt tell how it does go down in any other relationship,bt 4 me d longest relationship i av ever had is 1 month and d shortest is 3days, is this bad?wats yours?spill it!!!

This guy is wacked. If your longest relatrionship lasted only 1 month, then you are onbly living in fantasies. you are yet to get any taste of real love. How then do you get to meet the girls?

Likely is an understatement and an underrating of the U17 team. They always go on to do exploits - kanu, Opabunmi, Amunike, Oruma,

If they are made to graduate in to the next U20, then we shall having a commando squad at the next U20 championships

Despite the more than early kick-off my team got, The Reds went ahead to kindle light at the stadium of light with a Sissoko's 35' rocket.

Well, Rafa had always said we'd be better this season with our away games and we have proved it right. Two wins out of two.

My team have fared great this week *****

That was a brilliant Goal by Sissoko and a debut goal for Voronin. This should scare EPL contenders for the whole of the season. LFC have come with a motive to win, win and win all.

The Gaffer has always made his terms clear - Only the best plays for LFC. And so far, he has sticked by it.

Derby should be another take for us before the massive crowd at the slughterslab (Anfield) this weekend. Toulouse should have known from the scratch that for then to have been paired with the Reds meant that they were already out of the CL.

Carry Go Rafa,

What do you mean by greedy?

Am searching for help after realising the mess I got myself into and you say am greedy?

What is your definition of greedy?

Please house, I need help before I loose both girls,

I hear Gabriel Heinze can't join LFC and is on his way to Real Madrid!?

Fearful Fergie! Sha! I don't blame him for being scared. Do not want a bigger blow than the one he got at the hands of Man City.

BlackMamba:
Could you repeat the story. Slowly and coherent this time.

I mean I fell in love with two girls thast share the same name one at a time. Now am caught in a deadlock.

I don't know what decisions to take.

Please can anyone help me out before I loose both girls?

El Nino started his 30 goal campaign in grand style against Petr Cech though one useless Styles from Hampshire killed our joy. But I know that Torres can live op to his expectations after the huge sum doled out to get him.

All the same, If we can beat Sunderland on wednesday? by a huge margin then we can climb on top of the Pensioniers. Until then,

We Shall Never Walk Alone,

Its not the issue of not keeping it cool in front of goal. Its all about officiating with integrity and alertness.

I think Rob Styles or Robbing in Styles was seriously cracked before heading for Anfield, and had stakes in some bettings for the match. I think the FA should ban Styles or send him in to compulsory retirement.

His decisions killed the beauty of the game.

It could happen to any team I tell you

YNWA,

Referee Styles dropped over error 

Styles penalises Finnan, to Carragher's disbelief
Referee Rob Styles will not officiate in the Premier League next weekend following his performance in the Liverpool-Chelsea game on Sunday.
Styles was criticised for awarding a controversial penalty to Chelsea.

Referees' chief Keith Hackett told Sky Sports: "On this occasion it was wrong and therefore Rob will not be officiating next weekend."

Styles also appeared to show Chelsea's Michael Essien a second yellow card but then failed to send him off.


Interview: Liverpool manager Rafael Benitez

Former referee Hackett is general manager of Professional Game Match Officials Limited (PGMOL), the body which oversees referees.

He also revealed the assistant referee from the Fulham-Middlesbrough game had been dropped after David Healy was denied an equaliser when the ball seemed to cross the line.

He added: "Accountability exists and we, the PGMOL, do expect referees to get big decisions correct."

Liverpool boss Rafael Benitez was left incensed and skipper Steven Gerrard said Styles had "cracked" after he penalised Steve Finnan for a foul on Florent Malouda, although replays showed there was no contact.

"That decision is impossible to explain, it was the invisible penalty" said Benitez after the 1-1 draw.

Styles looked like he had given Essien a second yellow card but then explained it was meant for John Terry.

After the game Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho said: "Michael was honestly very frightened, he thought he had been booked again.

606: DEBATE
There were many talking points from the Anfield game

Saj C

"The referee then explained that he had only booked one player, John Terry, but Essien stood there for a long time and he said afterwards that he believed he had been cautioned again."

The incident happened shortly after Styles had awarded Chelsea their penalty, which Frank Lampard converted to level the scores after Fernando Torres put Liverpool in front with a goal on his home debut.

Former Premier League referee Graham Poll told BBC Radio 5live that Styles did not book Essien twice but that his award of a card to Terry looked "messy".

"At the first look I definitely thought he had booked Essien a second time," said Poll.

"Having looked I can see that as Rob raises the yellow card he points over to John Terry and says that it is John he has cautioned.

"He had just given a penalty and you have a gut feeling as a referee that you might have made a mistake.


Benitez and Mourinho renewed their war of words after the match

"You are under pressure then and when the stress is at its highest it is difficult to think clearly and get everything right."

Poll, who booked Croatia's Josip Simunic three times during a World Cup match in 2006, added: "It was a big mistake."

Benitez had no sympathy with Styles after the match, adding: "I want to have a lot of respect for referees, but sometimes I cannot understand why they give some decisions.

"I think he will watch the video of the match and admit that his penalty decision was a mistake."

And Gerrard asked for Styles to apologise for his penalty decision.

Not every player on the pitch was helping the referee

Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho

"I don't want to say too much because I will get into trouble, but the referee didn't play well," said the Liverpool skipper.

"Whether it was because the Chelsea players were talking I don't know, but in the end he's cracked and made a bad decision.

"It wasn't a penalty and I hope he comes out and says sorry now."

Meanwhile, Mourinho did not criticise Styles over the penalty decision but suggested his job had not been made easier by the behaviour of certain players from "a different culture".

"I haven't seen the replay of the incident and it was difficult to make out what was happening at the time," he insisted.

"Rafa has his opinion and I have mine. I judged the game to be a good and a fair one.

"Perhaps there were too many cards but overall I thought Mr Styles had a positive game.

"Not every player on the pitch was helping the referee."

Styles handed out eight yellow cards - while Mourinho was believed to be referring to Liverpool's Spanish duo of Torres and Alvaro Arbeloa.

Guys,

Do you think the one week suspension for Styles is really justified?

It happened to Liverpool, it can happen to any team. In fact, we saw what happened in the match between Boro and Fulham.

I think these men are killing English Football, and the beauty of the entirety of the game. Now the FA is considering the goal-mouth technology

We need some change.

A-40:
@Vokal
Where did you get those pics bruv?

I hope they kick the Blues on Sunday then after that they can start walking alone again

A-40

Pls go to hell. only you and your team shall walk alone. yeye bad belle.

I am going to be 21 this September, was at a conference and a girl caught my eyes. Trying to get her in to talking terms was difficult. And after I was able top get her contact, I was another herculean task trying to get to talk to her.

Then suddenly, I recieved a call from her, explaining that her phone had been down for the while, after which we continued to communicate on frequent basis.

After coming back from yet another conference, I met a lady for whom I had no eye for. I had a cruch for her friend, but after realising that this friend was in love with her brother, the thing just seem to turn to her. At first, we weren't in talking terms. Then the friend made us talk. Then we danced and Ush!!! It was fabulous dancing with her. We both were rookies on the floor, and maybe it gave the flavor.

Then suddenly, I started having her in every of my thoughts.

The first girl is 18 years old, a plump Yoruba girl, while the second girl is between 21 and 23. She is a Calabar girl who is trying to back out of a relationship, and is always happy to be around me.

The mystery here, is that they are both named MITCHELLE.

What do I do guys?

Some poeple don't even know that they are just nuisance whenm they poke into other peoples' privacy.

Eh! They say You Will Never Walk Alone and one dirty pig comes pokin its nozzle in o our gsit.

Bad Belle.

The worst thing is that its notr fans of the small small clubs we rub off o! They are fans of clubs that dream 24/7 for one thing: Beat :Liverpool FC and win the Champions League, or Beat LFC for the records. Haba!Pigs Respect your selves for once and leave our forum.

We are just unbeatable. If na lie, make Man Utd (the only club nearest) try am then we go know say dirty pensioniers or spiritless gonners fit try reach half.

If you don't know, what a boy will taste climbing an Iroko tree (countless years) an old man has lost taste of it already.

From Anfield to Stanley park,, "WE SHALL NEVER WALK ALONE!!!",

West London Reds!

Merseyside!

Everton Athletic!

Reds!

Liverpool FC!

Which one do you prefer?

It still means the most successful club in English Football,

Anfield!

Merseyside!

West London Reds!

Everton Athletic!

Liverpool FC!

Which one do you like?

It still means Winners,

1. EL NINO.

2. EL NINO.

3. EL NINO.

4.EL NINO.

Do you see ElNino poaching atleast 30 goals this season?

I give Rafa my blessings for the rotational play. This would afford the club the chance to keep all players in form and competing for available positions on the pitch. It would also allay fears when a player is injured as we would certainly have someone to fill the place.

I am Happy with what Rafa is doing.

I am happy at the performance of El Nino vs Villa. He shall definitely catch up with the scorers. Up Reds

We shall never walk alone!!!

Liverpool striker Kuyt: I can be Kop legend

Dirk Kuyt believes he can step into Robbie Fowler's boots and become a consistent goalscorer for Liverpool.


Dirk Kuyt celebrates in front of some woebegone Reading fans.The Dutchman scored 14 times last term, but the £9million striker aims to top the 20-goal mark this time around.


He said: 'Players like Robbie and Michael Owen are known as some of the best strikers Liverpool has ever had, and it's good for me to be able to have the chance to join those names.

'I want to be seen as a Liverpool goalscorer, and now I can't wait to show it.'

Kuyt has potentially two new strike partners following the arrivals of Fernando Torres and Andriy Voronin, who have effectively replaced Fowler and Craig Bellamy, who both left Anfield this summer.

And Kuyt believes that having a full pre-season can only benefit his game, after his transfer from Feyenoord disrupted his preparations last year.

Talking to the Liverpool Echo, he said: 'I'm sure I will get better this season. Last year I didn't have a full pre-season or know the rest of the lads or the club so well.

'Now I'm more settled and any difficulties when starting at a new club are behind me. I can focus 100% on my football and I have a good feeling about this season.'

He added: 'I scored a lot of goals in Holland, but England is totally different because it's so much more difficult.

'I believe I can do here what I did in Holland, but I also think I can do more for the team than just score goals. It's important for me to do whatever job is asked, working hard or making assists.

'Last season was different for me, getting used to different partners in attack and also playing against better defenders.

'The Premier League has some of the best defenders in the world and you need to get used to that, but I'm looking forward to this season even more than last.'

Kuyt also plans to become more adaptable given the varied playing styles among Rafael Benitez's strikeforce this season.

He said: 'Andriy and Fernando are different strikers to Robbie Fowler and Craig, so I may play in a different role.

'Fernando likes to come deeper for the ball, so if I play alongside him there's the chance for me to play higher up the park, which I enjoy. That's more how I was used to playing with Feyenoord.

'It all depends who I play alongside, of course, but what's most important is to play, win the games and help as many players as possible to score goals.'

Yeah, my mood is very very influenced by the music I listen to. Jazz, Country,

LAst seasonm, we won the community shield aganist Chelsea, and Manchester United went on to win the league. Well, I think the opposite is happening already. with a white wash of Mourinho's boys on sunday, the league is set rolling for us to Win.

We shall never walk alone!!!

The league is ours to carry this season

Well they have ruled their time. One for eight years, the other, for more. But what do you think of these men who have touched the coffers of our national treasury?

We don't know, but I think a better scrutiny of Otta Farms, would reveal that Agro money of the Kano groundnut Pyramids did build the farm.

Then the IBB style. You just can't take hold of him in one sector, he's ust everywhere.

Who do you think is smarter of the two?

Who is wiser of the two?

And who is richer of the two?

Remember one is an OGA of the other.

Think of the mentorship that follows

ebos:
You can get what you want from him only if he loves you. I believe what you should be doing now is to be visiting the guy's parents as often as you can. I'm telling you, once you root yourself in the hearts of his parents and brothers and sisters, you are in a better position than the other girl. You will not be in the position to fight again, his own people will fight for you. I could remember years back when my brother brought a certain girl and introduced her to us as a wife to be, but as things went on, he saw another girl and was trying to marry this new girl. So, the former girl who is now his wife used to visit my mum, helping her in some domestic works, filling my packet with some cash and I declared my support for her. The day the new girl came with my brother, my mother was at home discussing with some women who came to see her, and this new girl greeted them. These women who had already knew the former girl pretended as if they didn't hear the greeting of this new girl charged against her. Can't you greet? Who are you by the way? But I greeted, said the girl. when did you greet us now? You mean we don't have ears again? Look let today be the last you will come here, our son has somebody he wants to marry etc. That's settle everything. They were looking for any opportunity to state their position, and they did just that. So, make his people your own people. With their people on your side, the guy can't go against you. That's the secret.

Abeg what are you saying? This can't be applied for everyone.

FlyLyde:
We would like to make it clear at this juncture that FLY only happens to be the friend through whose email the trick message was sent and whose profile is been used by the original poster whom though is a Nairaland user would like to keep her identity private. You would do well to not crucify FLY asking questions like 'why are you talking about marriage at eighteen' of which I don't even consider an 18 yr old too young to know what they really want in life. Thank you all. We believe that we will no longer see replies questioning the age of the poster who is old enough to do what YOU do!

What I'd advice you to do, is to take your cool. I tell you, if this guy is really in love you, he'd come for you. If not, tarry and enjoy yourself, discovering yourself. While he flirts, you might even get to know that afterall, you twop weren't made for each other.

I happen to fall in to suc categories. My date left for school, but before she left, we had a beef. This continued for more than six months. Although I tarried, she didn't even care. Then a txt message came one day, that she misses me. It fell on dumb ears and she got angry.

Suddenly, fireballs started travelling either ways and at the end, we had to reslove that we weren't made for each other. I just couldn't go out with a girl with such pride and lack of attitude.

Mine is a different story, but you can still draw experience from any story.

Just take your time to think and make decisive decisions.

Know that you must know first, then you like then you love. have you gone through this process? reflect

shilox:
You never know who would be Mr or Mrs RIGHT tommorow.
Afterall dating is not being in a relationship.

Who said dating does not mean a relationship. Afterall, in Nigeria, ost people can't distinguish the difference between the both.

bgees:
One mistake i think rafa made was to sell cisse.he could have kept him and sinima.when we had morientes and cisse ,we had many options.i hope d strikers we have now can give us better days.

Well don't underestimate the Gaffer. Just watch him gamble his way to winning the league this season.

When heinze comes to Anfield, we can now be able to use Riise very well in his normal position. Then we will have options on both wings for better input to El Nino and Crouch.
