I'm buzzin' about this one!!
New AnfieldHot on the heels of Arsenal's £100m deal with Emirates - which will see the Gunners' new home named the "Flying Muslim Stadium" - Liverpool FC...
Sure....we could have got PSV or Lyon, probably as much an outsider as we are. BUT WE GOT JUVE....this is what the Champions league is all about. The Cream of the crop, the best of the bunch...........the BIG teams!
OT: A Spurs PostIt was announced today by a beleaguered Tottenham Hotspur that centre-half Dean Richards has retired due to the results...
They don't come much bigger than this, these are the games we lust after, these are the games we fight for week in week out in the League. These are the ones we dream about, sing about....LIVE FOR!!!
Back from the gamehavn't seen the Baros tackle on TV, but it was right in front of me and it didn't seem *that* bad...
I'm glad we didn't get Lyon or PSV as people would look and say..."jammy bastards, easy ride" and all that poo, hell, even the Germans look a bit dodgy and would have though "bollocks tie allover".
Glad we didn't get Chelski, not because I think there better, just cos it aint got the same glamour as Liverpool V Juventus.
I was hoping, had Real Madrid gone through, that we drew them at this stage.
This IS the best draw that we could have got. Time to sort the men from the boys for this one.Juve are the best (on paper) left in the competition. Their home form has been immense this season and they ARE one of the best teams in Europe....f*** Chelski!! Bunch of amateurs compared to this lot!
Great respect to the Juve fans and a mutual feeling, I feel, from the Italian giants. We will never forget what went on 20 years ago. The shame and the sadness. The same sadness we have since felt as a unit....as a PEOPLE!!
Lets make these boys welcome and look forward to what will be one of the greatest nights at Anfield I hope....Join one and all , for this IS the big stage!!
I honestly didn't think we would have come as far as we have this year and whatever your feelings on the "Rafaloution".............Cheer till you drop, scream till your horse, wave your flags till your arm drops off. Get the NOISE up at home and we can................we WILL do it.
Make it a night to remember, whatever the result; and most of all ....RESPECT TO EVERY FAN who has shed a tear for the fans who died watching the Pinnacle's of football !!!!
I call for a one mins silence before kick off ......to remember them ALL, Italian and English...........we must never forget!
To one and ALL.....You'll NEVER Walk Alone!!
Amen!
