Re: The EPL thread (IV)

2-1 to Liverpool. Drogba to be sent off.

Amusing to read Raffa's comments about Drogba and his "diving" ... when he's got the
perfect exhibitionist of such performances captaining his Liverpool team.
Matchstick-leg Gerrard's "falls" ought to be videoed and used as a coaching manual for wannabe cheats!
Especially his painful facial expressions from prostrate positions!

Gerrard is one of the worst. But the commentators never call him on it. They call it 'clever play' or 'intelligent football'.

[JKLever]

Any one of the big 4 managers complaing about 'diving' is a hypocrite - end of.

Great pass from Super Frank to put Drogba through. Most of you will just pretend it didn't happen at the end of the game though like you usually do. You'll wipe your spittle on your shirts and mumble "was Frank even on the pitch" like the blind mentalists you all are.

Cyclops - I can't be arsed to talk in circles with a one-eye. If you think about it and have ever played football before, you might work out why the possession stats are like that.

[Lara Lara Laughs]

And ANOTHER superb pass from Lampard to put Kalou through leads to the goal. What a f*cking legend. He's bossing the midfield.

Great, great player.

[LeFromage]

Equation hasn't really changed for Liverpool - they still need to score.

My 1-1 tip is still on.

[LeFromage]

h/t 1-0

[Lara Lara Laughs]

What are your thoughts on Kalou, Dello? He's pretty inconsistent but he strikes me as a player who could be really excellent.

If you repeat it enough times every time he plays you have to get lucky sometimes

1-0 fair score, although Torres had that decent chance.

I'm just waiting for the headline:

'Crazed fan in Lampard rape shock'

[LeFromage]

Don't fancy him much. What is he? As a winger, he can't really cross, doesn't run at full backs enough. As a striker, he's not a great finisher, doesn't have much of a presence.

But he is quick.

Good sub, I reckon.

[JKLever]

Chelski/United would make a better final I think. United have the hex over Liverpool too much to make it a close final...

There, that's the scousers through then...

[LeFromage]

1-1. Torres.

He's the kind of player that Wenger and the Arsenal system would turn into a class act in my opinion.

It'll be interesting if this goes to penalties. Cech's a far better keeper than Reina but Reina's probably a better penalty saver.

[JKLever]

1-1. Torres.

got the lottery numbers?

Fancy the Scouse to do this now, Chelski look a little knackered - need to get rid of Ballack and push Essien into midfield. i'd even get Sheva on too

[Lara Lara Laughs]

Controversial! Was that offside???? There was a player just in front of the keeper but come on!! Seems extremely harsh. There was no way Reina was saving that even if the Chelsea player wasn't there.


Now a penalty!!!!!!!!!!

[Lara Lara Laughs]

SUPER FRANK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! BIG GAME PLAYER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! BALLS OF STEEL!!!!!

[Lara Lara Laughs]

I fancy Liverpool to pour forward and eventually equalise and go through. You heard it here first.

Benitez has taken Torres off for some crazy reason.

[LeFromage]

Liverpool's luck finally runs out...

[JKLever]

3-1 !!!!

Chelski looked gone for all money at FT.

Played Frank.

Why take Torres off?

[Lara Lara Laughs]

Chelsea deserve this. They dominated the first half thanks to Lampard and Drogba and have turned it on like nobody's business in extra time. The Essien goal should have stood so it could have been 4-1.

Liverpool can have no complaints.

[JKLever]

3-2 !!!!!!!

[Lara Lara Laughs]

That was poor poor poor from Cech. Should have saved that.

This is probably the game of the season. Can anyone think of any better games?

[Makaveli]

Why take Torres off?

Knowing Benitez he's probably 'resting' him for the next game

[LeFromage]

Football's always better when it's pissing down with rain and everyone looks knackered after about ten minutes.

Chelsea through. Deserved it.
