Liverpool v Chelsea

**Coopa** · May 03, 2005, 12:46 PM

Who is it going to be. I'm a West Ham fan so dont have much riding on game BUT

I hope so much Liverpool win, as I hate Chelsea (don't like money winning the Premiership)

I can see Chelsea scoring a fluky win (deflected goals, anyone?)

**Otto von Lanstien** · May 03, 2005, 12:51 PM

They do say Chelsea and Liverpool are the "big spenders". So either way... :wack

Though I suppose the Scouse's don't have a multi-millionaire oil-baron on their side. :lol

I'll support Chelsea only cos it's closer and my little brother is a big fan. *tongue*

**Sidus Preclarum** · May 03, 2005, 12:56 PM

I hope the Reds hammer Chelsky...
yeah,I Iike lost causes :p

I dont think Liverpool can even aspire to the £200 million Chelsea have spent since Abramovich's arrival

Apparently this match is being watched in more countries than the last two finals! :happy

- Yay for the preimiership taking it's lucrative place ahead of the Italian League! :grin (they used to be the prime candidates for the most popular league in the world).

- Yay for it being watched in places tht i've neve even heard off (and i'm knowladgable with wordly geography *wink* ).

- Sorry to any Italian diehards whose feelings i've hurt. :erm

**Coopa** · May 03, 2005, 01:40 PM

Where English football has really come on in Fans and Crowd control in recent years. Italy have basically gone backwards (I.E Inter fans in quarters)

Anyway I'm off to watch game.

**Cliomhdubh** · May 03, 2005, 01:46 PM

hopefully liverpool will win although id like to see duffer get a medal id prefer to show that money cant buy a good football team

**Emperor Dimitricus** · May 03, 2005, 03:42 PM

1-0 to the champions!!!!!
hehehe bloody close though, nearly lost with that shot at the end!
but we won hahahahahahaha!!!!!!!!!!!

**markolitos** · May 03, 2005, 03:46 PM

oh my god! :shocked :shocked :shocked that was nail biting action, one of the best games ive seen!
yay for liverpool, but chelsea played really hard last half hour

**shadepanther** · May 03, 2005, 03:47 PM

I dont really like either teams but I hate Chelsea more for trying to "buy their way to success" so good job Scousers :grin

**Coopa** · May 03, 2005, 03:51 PM

Mourinho's reaction was quite credible, yet he makes himself sound diplomatic while getting in comments like the linesmen scored we didnt.

I think Chelsea can count themselves lucky that Cech wasn't sent off as Baros had an open net if he wasn't taken down

Hopefully Chelsea will slip into decline now.

**Emperor Dimitricus** · May 03, 2005, 03:54 PM

chelsea wont slip into decline so long as they have a billionarre russian oil baron funding new players. bah damn commies.
but we still won yay!!!

**KingOfTheIsles** · May 03, 2005, 03:54 PM

That goal really didn't look like it was completely over the line...

**smack** · May 03, 2005, 04:03 PM

Wow, that was an exciting game, to put it mildly. I really enjoyed how hard Liverpool worked, with stars like Finnan, Riise, Garcia, and even Kewell showing how well than can play when properly motivated!

Eidur's late shot was about 2 inches from hitting Drogba and going in. So close Chelsea, so close.

Was debating how a Chelsea treble wouldn't be as good as a Chelsea double for their continued growth. I think this result will spur them to improve even more, whereas a treble so early in the Abromovich era might have led to stagnation.

-Man U fan.

**Coopa** · May 03, 2005, 04:09 PM

I think man of the match was Carragher, he played a blinder.

Can't help but feeling a little sorry for Owen who was in the ITV coverage box.

And he went to Madrid for European football

(How wrong he was)

**Omnipotent-Q** · May 03, 2005, 04:20 PM

i'm in some way pleased that Mourinho and his arrogance has been shown the door out of the champions league........no disrespect to Chelsea fans, but it runs along the lines of trying to buy trophies, the way Chelsea conduct themselves in the transfer market. :p

it was a good game though, all it would have took Chelsea is a lucky goal to get back into it (well maybe even won due to the away goal rules).

Chelsea will only grow from this, and make a comeback next year, for sure, whether Roman gets his wallet out (well, Russian Purse) or not.

seen as this is about football, as an aside, i'd like to say, although he was no way involved with tonights match, Mark Lawrenson is a moron who talks garbage.. kthx.

**Fianóglach** · May 03, 2005, 06:25 PM

Very Pleased with that match, I'm behind Liverpool 100% The Local Liverpool Supporters Club shares the Pub with us Celtic Supporters, they're a fun bunch. :happy

Well, yeah... But he was right wasn't he? That "goal" was perhaps important in deciding the match.

**BKB** · May 04, 2005, 06:09 AM

It was either give it as a goal or sending the Chelsea keeper off. You can see the ref about to blow his whistle and it was not going to be a foul on the chelsea keeper, so cech was going off.

I hate Chelsea and i hate liverpool but its great to see chelsea lose as i hate them just a little bit more :grin
