Arsenal should be pretty disapointed in the performance, we put 9 men behind the ball and they couldn't break us down.

That is, till Pepe screws us over.

Mehhhh!!!!

Already into must win territory now against Citehh next week.

Good of the FA to give us two easy starters. Whle Chelsea and and United get home ties against the new boys.

LOL!

Doesnt that always happen with the previous Champions? Home tie vs a newly promoted team, thats just protocal!

Your right, Arsenal should be disappointed, but Liverpool should be ashamed. And yet they sing "Boring boring Chelsea" <

Only broke nearly all the records for high scoring and goal ratio's...

So Now we can sing Boring Boring Liverpool? Its good though, Gerrard and Torres < Never knew they were a defensive outlet

VVVVV

??????????????

Errr no. ??????????
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

How were we boring? We go down to 10 men, Mascherano injured, Danni Agger injured but having to play with concussion, this against Arsenal.

Sorry Derry but your talking nonsense. We played the perfect half, score then hold. Football in its simplest form.

Yawn....same old argument. Just meet up and fight!!! That will sort it!! Make sure to wear your footie tops aswell!!

Irish referee? sounds good

Don't worry this is only game 1, 37 more to go yet! This is a pretty much none starter though, very little worth speaking about.

Obvious Derry was looking for thisargument, how else could you explain such naivety?

I just refer you back to the Arsenal V Barca game last season.

Barca all over Arsenal. Barca go down to ten with a goal advantage. They then try to hold what they have.

Liverpool played the perfect defensive game, which was pretty obvious what was going to happen, except one thing. Ngog scored from nowhere. Arsenal have the advantage. It is up to them to break us down. Took a fortunate goal for it to happen.

Liverpool have played this way for the past 6/7 years in such circumstances.

Arsenal are masters of the late goal, they seem to always manage it, but your trying to hard Derry here. There really is no worthy points for debate to say Liverpool are a boring team on the basis of one game, a game which would ahve been a pretty historic win for Liverpool.

If its a historic win for Liverpool, then you can be sure. Its a pretty impressive victory.

Put it this way, would have been better than any 6-0 against West Brom.

Haha!

Did I get a bite!?

You make this far to easy Mike, usually you send some abuse for a couple of days before you tip over. I only had to write one post.

Either you're getting weak or I'm just getting good



(8) Borrrring Borring Liverpool (8)

Did you get a bite? No, you got bitten.

Your so obvious Derry. About as subtle as a brick. 2 years ago you could have a proper discussion on this forum. You want to turn this into a petty point scoring contest then prove me wrong.

Stop being so stupid.

Of course I will rise if you talk drivel on this thread, this is proper football now. So this is game one. 37 more to go. Gonna ask you once. Post properly or 4this thread is pointless. I cba with this stupid bickering any more. Those days are gone. Grow up.

Maybe instead of posting what you don't think in order to try and get yourself some attention, you ought to post what you do think? What you scared of Derry? Humour me.

And for god sake man, when will you learn, to say you have won this petty battle sums you up for me.

You always do this. You say something like 'i win'. Just because you say you have won something, doesn't mean you actually have. The opposite is true.

You can't end an debate in 'I win' - Childlike.

Yeah Mike...as my post clearly indicates above, a big juicy speach bubble that reads..."I win"...I think not.

Dont make storys up Mike to act as if your being hard done by, you're not a victim here.

Your opinions of me trying to buy attention are completely stupid. Why would I want to get attention? By posting a small paragrapgh this is me seeking the limelight?

Newsflash...not everyone is as lame as you.

The majority on this site will say you're 1 of the main reasons behind pathetic arguments. So for you to come out & tell me to stop, I think you need your head checking =\.

Maybe you are just completely stupid and have alzhuimers or a memory like a fish, but it wasnt long ago when you was rucking with...everyone.

I merely tested your ability to keep a lid on a tiny bit of banter & you tipped over. You obviously cant handle such a thing so I will stop. You say im childlike, but your acting the victim & frankly, need to 'man up'.


I just done to you, what you have done to so many others...& you didnt like it. Baring in mind in the 1st post I wasnt even attacking you, like you do to others, when you single out aspects that shows someone in a bad light. I just niggled at LFC. Says it all.

Dont give it if you cant take it Mike. What I said was not nasty or vicious or even aimed at you =\.

I dont need to say I win Mike. If you somehow assume it when I said nothing of the sort, then your the only one who thinks of this as a contest.

My main man Derry.

You also do this alot. Something which I never do. The key difference between 'what I do to people', and what you tried to do with me

You misinterpret, purposely or otherwise.

Some examples:

'You make this far to easy Mike'

and

'Either you're getting weak or I'm just getting good'

Then

'I just done to you, what you have done to so many others...& you didnt like it.'

Penultimately: Dont give it if you cant take it Mike.

And fianally: The one that is your biggest mistake because it contradicts everything you said above:

'I dont need to say I win Mike. If you somehow assume it when I said nothing of the sort, then your the only one who thinks of this as a contest.'

Now, either your going for an ironic joke much past your capablities, or I was indeed right when saying 'You say something like 'i win'. Just because you say you have won something, doesn't mean you actually have. The opposite is true.'

I can hang you by what you say Derry, because I am fundementally right.

It is immature to create an argument for the sake of it. I argue when I actually beleive what I say to be right. Hence I can carry on the initial discussion without saying 'I win', after the first post.

You had nowhere to go, so you went automatically into the 'you fell for the bait hahaha'.

Imitation is flattering Derry, but do it right my man.

Lets go back to the very beggining.

I listed some of Chelsea's impressive goal scoring ability and highlighted that Chelsea were called boring.

Since you even indicated yourself as to Liverpools tactics were score and stick everything behind the ball, I simply gave back what I have recieved under Jose Mourinho by Liverpool fans, who beleived they played "attractive football".

Now chelsea's football is somewhat attractive, I was merely implying Chelsea have a better style than Liverpool.


You then took it to the next level Mike. I was having a laugh, wasnt even banter. Was meant in a light hearted way which I thought would be amusing for non-liverpool fans and some liverpools fans would understand I was trying to be humourous!

I dont care what Liverpools tactics are at the end of the day!

I also said about Gerrard and Torres being defensive units, just for the pure fact that they are 2 of the best attacking football players to have ever kicked a ball. It was irony mixed in with abit of 'Derry humour'

Dont know why you take everything personally Mike. The post wasnt malicious.

Do you not see this? This has escalated because you have took it personally. Not because I want an argument. I check the thread and want to post something. I dont go on here to just norse you up. Dont flatter yourself.

Derry, your at it again.

You admitted to posting that to wind me up, now your saying you didn't.

If you didn't post it to wind me up, then why are you saying

''You make this far to easy Mike''

and

'Either you're getting weak or I'm just getting good'

Derry you contradict yourself so many times. You don't even know yourself where you stand. You haven't got a clue.

Undone by your own words. That is poor.

Keep 'trying to do what I try to do to others', or maybe become your own man??? Crazy thought but I don't try to imitate people, so why are you?

Do not say you are not trying to imitate me derry, I have your own words to use against you for that eventuality as well.

Back in 12 hours to respond to yourself and maybe a funky friend of yours.

You actually live in a fantasy.

I would never try to imitate you in any sense. I'm so much better than you I wouldn't want to stoop so low. I don't like anything I have seen from you. Not a single sausage! So don't start all this mularky.


Okay, I see I wasn't clear so let me make it clear.


I wasnt winding you up specifically. It was Liverpool fans in general. I know your a big lump but you dont cover the whole fan basis of Liverpool football club.

There are other Lpool fans that post on this thread, Alex and Moons to be specific. My aim was to get a reaction from a liverpool fan, but not in this sense. Like I said it was a light hearted comment just to spark some banter. After all football is all about abit of banter. I wasnt being personal or vicious or specific or directing it or singling someone out.

Weird thing is I might not be able to explain it, but I have common sense so I can see it.

I did very little wrong if anything. I just posted a little comment putting a little downer on liverpool bcoz thats what football fans do.

You need to build a bridge Mike...

dont really make a diffrence who use get use still wont win the prem haha

and your going to have to play them sometime anyway

To be fair..Certain scenarios call for certain tactics.

1 man down against a side that can easily cut defences open. Common sense tells me to keep it tight and work hard not to concede..Whilst trying to get some at the other end.

We did that..Just unfortunate Pep Reina had a complete howler.

Joe Cole - Nice debut
Koscielny - Nice debut

:S

Joe Cole, Thought it was funny, all the hype, and he creases someone and gets sent off haha!

lmao both of em sent offf

No, but you live on funky.

Your the one who needs to take a reality check here Derry, I didn't even rise to your stupidness until you said you had reeled me in or whatever you said.

Look back over the past 2 years of this thread, I always posted a massive monologue about my team, where I feel we went right, wrong, who impressed me who didn't. There was nothing new in what I said, other than that you were talking nonsense which was true.

A team goes down to 10, has the 1 goal advantage, I don't care who you are, you hold what you have and play on the counter and set plays, or you will more often than not lose.

I still stand by that, and also that you were talking nonsense, both about the strange set up you thought about the opening fixtures.... champions play newly promoted side as protacol(???) and in saying we play boring football.

We will see over the season, but I don't think we will see mega exciting football at Anfield and nor should we, we are not good enough, sad yet true.

Of course Liverpool will not win the league this year, the target is top 4, which in all honesty is going to be an uphill battle with City spending over 100M this summer, and we haven't spent a penny, we have made more than spend again this year, bottom of this years transfer net spend table, and trying to imprive on 7th. 4th would be a great achievement - sad for Liverpool but true enough.

All the action is down the Brit, more money than most and as you can see we are not afraid to spend it

Also I no we don't make top 8 but the atmosphere of a real football team where all the fans come from Stoke we don't need/want what Chelsea/United/Liverpool etc have happy to be abkle take my seat next to another Stokie and watch the game we all love!
