Who is going to win the premiership title.

So was that 'the Liverpool way' when they forced fowler (a player they called god) out of the club?? Phil Thompson using the press to turn the fans against him. Disgusting behaviour. And this came from Fowler himself in his autobiography so obviously it's true.
 
Are you lot still arguing? Just got in from work and my Email inbox is full of replies from this thread. I still can't see what the argument is actually about. Fox your nothing but a WUM and Phil you are just playing straight into his hands.

But back to the thread I think Liverpool are almost home and dry now, just a couple of more games to go.

Perhaps on this I could be seen that way. But it's really only pay-back. And you have to admit that it's a ridiculous question by Phil. Can you answer why it matters which Club I support. Or even that I support, a slightly more relevant question!

And have a read of this http://forums.golf-monthly.co.uk/showthread.php?66264-stopping-emails!

I think you are right though. They would have been a much more interesting couple of games if Maureen wasn't true with his mind-games and 'resting' a couple of his now key players for Wednesday. Liverpool will probably (hopefully even?) have similar challenges at this time next year. something they haven't needed to consider for a while. ManU won't have that 'problem'! And they'll have to make sure they stay within FFP too - something that should be extended more quickly, imo.

Of more 'interest' to me is whether Everton can pip Arsenal for the last CL place and whether Wenger goes out with a win next month. How that 'succession' works out will be interesting too. Liverpool hasn't been immune to managerial 'disasters' either with plenty sacked early in their contract.
 
they'll just sight theyve used the players within the 25 man squad and if they do get a slap on the wrist fine what difference will it make to who wins the PL the title will have been decided.
The only hope then would be for Atletico to win next Wednesday and chelski end up with nothing.

Ferguson did the same on the final day of the season when Manchester United lost to West Ham and Warnocks side were relegated.

As a proper fan, wouldn't you rather Jose came to Anfield with his strongest possible team with the aim of winning? Or are you satisfied with going for the CL?

Like when Rafa fielded a weakened Liverpool team against Fulham ahead of the 2007 Champions League final with Milan.

Clubs can now call on players from the development side or under 21 side as longs as its proportionate, so, I think we'll field the following.

Hilario, Kalas, Mikel, Christense, Ake, Matic, Lampard, Van Ginkel, Salah, Schurrle, Ba.

Take from that what you will :smirk:

Players from the mentioned list are available, but the rule still states that you must field your strongest team to ensure far competition. That line up blatantly isn't your strongest. Don't get me wrong, I think the rule is stupid as a club should sort itself out before worrying of others. But in this case, if you spect that line up and the FA doing nothing it'll stink of hypocrisy. Then again that's nothing new for the FA.

Fishy, if you honestly believe Mourinho will field a weak team against us then you're as deluded as those United fans who backed Moyes :whistle:

It's a squad game anyway so I don't see an issue.

City have had 35 games to make sure they're not relying on other teams for them to be victorious but as in life there's always people looking to blame others for there own failures.

I'd argue that side is more attacking than Tuesday's team:whoo:

Exactly, so shouldn't the FA be more supporting of those (only us :smirk:) English clubs still in Europe, and more importantly pushing towards a final?

I'm not sure, when you lose 1/3rd of your starting line up do you seriously risk the remainder only 48hrs before a CL semi-final? I think having to play in such a short period of time is also stupid, the game should have been moved back to Saturday at the very least. I think the FA do sweet FA to support English clubs in Europe and don't fight their corners enough when fixtures get congested, its almost like your punished or disadvantaged by being successful in going far in competitions.

I agree but sky have the ultimate say.

It happens every season.

I can remember Liverpool playing in the CL against a Russian side on a Wednesday a few years ago then playing at Portsmouth on a Saturday at 12:45.

Too right Robin... Us successful teams should be given more time to get ready for these big games...:D By the time the Play Off Final comes round, we'll have played 60 games already (if we make it obviously). Bearing in mind that it's the most financially lucrative game in World Football, then special dispensation should be made...;)

Frustrating thing is that the Spanish teams are still shown on sky yet they change their game times. I suppose the argument is that if a smaller team was playing Chelsea this weekend, would it be on them to rearrange the game for when it's better for Chelsea? Or any other team in the situation.

I have read but couldn't substantiate whether true or not but Liverpool were asked if the fixture could be moved back to Saturday but they refused!
 
If it were the other way round, would you want Chelsea to give Liverpool more time to recover?

Liverpool have had a week rest whilst we played on Tuesday, why couldn't the PL fixture be on Saturday which means less time to recover for Chelsea against Liverpool but an extra day for Europe?

Spanish clubs arrange their own tv rights deals so they have more power, sky just show their games in a 3rd partyway.

I don't think Liverpool had refused to rearrange the game but you can't exactly blame them if they did.

These fixtures were rearranged before the PSG 2nd leg and they weren't sure who was playing when.

Anyway it won't matter now Mourinho has confirmed he'll be using weaker squad players.....
