How do we see these panning out?
Blueboy/Penko can we do it or will we freeze as per usual?
I'll go for Everton 2-0 and Chelsea 3-1 _________________ Nil Satis Nisi Optimum |

I can see both being tight and both being draws, worst case scenario for us...
Liverpool v Everton 2-2
Chelsea v Spurs 1-1
Everton and Chelsea both win aet |

Liverpool game on ESPN - Fcuk Off!!!
Was really looking forward to this game today and then discovered which channel was showing it. I pay £60+ a month to ensure i have all the channels i & my family want but that is still not enough apparently.

Poor game so far. Confused why Dalglish benched Enrique and put Agger at left back. Trying to shoe horn Carragher into the side? They have to make changes I'd expect one or both of Maxi and Bellamy to come on early 2nd half _________________ Nil Satis Nisi Optimum |

Feared the worst when I saw the line up, it is annoying that we now need to use a subsitute to go back to the back 4 which should of started and bring on Enrique for Carragher and lets get back to the best centre back partnership.
SMH at playing Henderson out wide again.
Need to get Bellamy on pretty soon as well. I want Gerrard further up the pitch as the AM or RM.
Garbage performance in the 1st half. |

Sigh, standard performance in the derby. Since going 1-0 we just reverted to type sat back and let Liverpool come at us. Deserve to lose _________________ Nil Satis Nisi Optimum |

Yeah I think Everton sitting off from the start of the 2st half allowing LFC to dominate was the big factor. It was sad to see Distin apologising at the end and distraught, he will obviously feel responsible as it was a key moment, but I don't personally think that moment decided the game. |

Nah the goal was coming, wasn't even just the 2nd half we sat off the entire game it's so frustrating to watch. Other than the goal and a couple of half chances we did nothing. You deserved to win _________________ Nil Satis Nisi Optimum |

Poor quality from both sides, Everton seemed to be playing not to lose. Baines got destroyed by Downing which is concerning from an England standpoint.
Agree with TJM line-up was a mess... Can only think it was meant to counter Everton's height, or Enrique has been tapped-up by Madrid/Barca. Harsh on Maxi.
If Suarez got upto some of Jelavic's antics.. |

I can't understand why Everton didn't test Jones more, in the space of two minutes he flapped at a cross and punched one upwards.
He would have been nervous today and rusty, and I thought thats where Evertons key to winning lay... |

With all the Chelsea/Everton/Liverpool/Sp**s fans on here, has anybody actually been to Wembley this weekend?
Saw Chelsea were letting Season ticket holders buy 2 extra tickets on top of their own one. _________________ Nobody likes Grasses |

| I went and sat In 525 and 2 rows from the top but still a great view, not a great game but It's all about winning , I thought Everton were poor and we weren't much better. Now sit back and enjoy the other semi, I'd rather get Chelsea because we're better suited to beating them, whoever It Is It will be a great occasion. |

The result and performance was sadly predictable. Wish at half time Id have thrown a load of money on Liverpool and the draw as that may have been the only way of getting us over the line.
Gutted is an understatement! |
