Dont need or want your respect and I love it when people say "oooh you were lucky to win the euro cup".....that really hurts me when people say we were lucky...I couldn't give a rats ass if we cheated our way to victory, if we never scored a legit goal in the whole comp....if every non red thinks we didn't deserve it or if they all wanted us to lose....we didn't, we won and I had a great, great footballing night, one i will never forget, the best time of my life....and YOU Manc scum?? you sat there stoney faced, wishing your club was ours, you admired our courage, felt proud to be british and then thought (with tears welling up) that you had better turn and do the rightful criticism like every other jealous never has been in the world!!!!
Yup fair do's we are not firing at the mo...and I aint happy with our performances...yet all I have to do is think back to last May and that barmy night in Istanbul and a warm glow covers my soul...I could dine on that night for a lifetime, and if i thought you had some normal views then i might cut you some slack about your opinions, as it is however I treat your feeble "heard it all before" abuse with the same contempt I will be issuing to you when you buy and then bring yourself off with a novelty Manc loofer from the club shop in your home county of Surray!!!!

I've never posted on here before but all this is absolutely pathetic and like my fellow Liverpool fan earlier, its hard to stay quiet.
All some guy did was ask advice on the formation of Liverpool in the team and everyone jumps on a Liverpool-bashing band-wagon. Its pathetic; we're meant to be discussing Pro Evo and trying to help each other out with our enjoyment of the game, and you morons go on and on about "Liverpool are crap", "Liverpool were lucky" blah blah blah.
Lets get some facts then, just so the idiots can come back with a highly intelligent response of "Yeah well shut up, you're crap":
To the guy who said we only score 3 because of Milan's "old tired legs", well lets just clear one fact up.....
Who did Milan knock out in earlier in the knockouts?
Manchester United.... who couldn't score against Milan in 180 minutes of football. Liverpool took 6 minutes to score three times. Gerrard's header was the mark of a world class footballer, Smicer's goal was driven hard and low into the bottom corner and Xabi Alonso scored from his own rebound from the penalty spot. All valid goals with no "luck" about them.
To the idiot who bemoans the fact that LFC haven't won a league title in 15 years and they've never won a "Premiership" title (which is still the league championship):
How can you quote your total of trophies (including the charity shield.. WOW!!!) as 15 league titles then? By your moronic logic, you haven't won 15 league titles. And if you say we're living in the past, then welcome to the party because in case you hadn't noticed, United are not the footballing force they used to be. So get used to living in the past sunshine, or shut the hell up.
To the Chelsea whiners who are STILL banging on about the "goal that never was"; you lost. That's football. You get enough decisions going your way, you can't whinge when one goes against you. And the fact of the matter is, in that semi-final, it would have been down to 10 men and a penalty if it wasn't given and the fact remains that you didn't manage to score a goal against Liverpool in 180 minutes of football, so you've only your whiny-assed selves to blame for going out of the competition.
If we want to use your method of argument, then the league game at Anfield last season should have been 2-1 to the Reds, as Tiago clearly handballed, Gerrard was crocked in the box, both in the first half. Gallas handballed in the last game this year in the Champions league, and Drogba's hacking of Hyypia and the push on Garcia were both clear penalties. So really, stop whining about the goal that never was. The Liverpool manager and players upheld their dignity after that game and didn't whinge about it once, they just said "That's football". Unlike Mourinho - the man who bought the title - and his whiney assed spoiled brats who cannot take defeat with anything like good grace. It was 1-0, and we went on to become Champions of Europe. Its fact. Deal with it like a grown up. The history books will say "Liverpool FC, European Champions 2005". No matter how much you bitch and whinge, that is cold hard fact.
Move on with your life and stop being so god damn sad about it and stop boring us all with your pathetic attempts at being intelligent, because, as has been displayed, you're just not.
For god's sake, grow up. Just shouting "You're crap", "You haven't won the Premiership", "Ha ha Crystal Palace" is just about the most base, unintelligent footballing arguments I've ever heard. Its play ground stuff. If you want to talk football, then talk football.... for god's sake stop the "My dad's bigger than your dad" childish whining. Most people in this forum couldn't give a toss about your childish, uninformed and narrow-minded opinions. Go pick up your dummies and get back in your prams and wait for mummy to change your sh*tty pants.

Rafa has reverted to a 4-4-2 now so use that as it is realistic and will get you goals..

The year is 2007 and little bluenose Duncan is talking to his bluenose Dad.
SON "Dad, my mates in school told me that Liverpool won the European Cup for the 5th time in 2005 ? are they right dad?
DAD "Yes son, it's true, but they were dead lucky son, all the way through the tournament"
SON "Why dad?"
DAD "Well in the group stages ?.."
SON "What dad, did they have a team from Azerbaijan, Israel, and Ireland in their group?"
DAD "Well no, they had Monaco, Deportivo la Coruna, and Olympiakos"
SON "Well they still sound like 3 easy teams to me dad"
DAD "Actually Monaco reached the final the year before, Olympiakos had won their league 7 times out of the previous 8 seasons, and Deportivo finished above the galacticos of Real Madrid in their league".
SON "Jeez dad, that sounds like quite a difficult group then".
DAD "yeh I suppose your right son, but they were still lucky ? it took a mishit shot by Gerrard against Olympiakos to get through".
SON "oh is that the goal were your hero Andy Gray goes berserk shouting "you beauty, you beauty, what a hit son, what a hit!!!!"
DAD "yes son it is"
SON "oh ok. Well what happened in the last 16 dad, who did they draw?"
DAD "Bayer Leverkusen"
SON "Bayer who?"
DAD "Exactly son, but they had beaten Real Madrid 3-0 at home, and won their group that included Dinamo Kiev and Roma too."
SON "bloody hell dad, they sound good".
DAD "yes, I suppose you're right son"
SON "so did they win on away goals or something"
DAD "errrrr, no, they won both legs 3-1 each"
SON "oh ? well who next then dad"
DAD "Juventus"
SON "How the f#ck did they get past them Dad?"
DAD "Well they did ? they won 2-1 at home, and cruised to a 0-0 away draw without Juve having hardly any chances".
SON "were Juve sh#t at that time ? had all their decent players gone or something?"
DAD "well actually they still had players like Del Piero, Nedved, Ibrahimovic, Thuram, and Buffon in the side. And they won Serie A a few weeks later."
SON "wow, they beat the Italian champions elect ? which **** easy team did they get in the semi then?"
DAD "Chelsea"
SON "Chelsea ? for f#cks sake ? what a **** easy draw ? they've won nothing, Everton have won more than them".
DAD "well that season they won the Premiership and League Cup but the Red ***** didn't let them score in 180 minutes of football"
SON "Jesus Christ ? so Liverpool beat the English Champions elect too"
DAD "yes son, they bloody well did".
SON "so after all that I suppose all the good teams had been knocked out"
DAD "not quite son, AC Milan awaited them in the final"
SON "no way ? aren't they the 2nd most successful team in the competition's history".
DAD "yes son they are"
SON "so were Liverpool lucky because Milan had all their good players out with injuries"
DAD "no ? they had Shevchenko, Crespo, Maldini, Nesta, Cafu, Kaka, Stam, Dida, Gattuso, Pirlo, and Seedorf".
SON "your 'avin a laff"
DAD "it gets worse son, Milan were cruising 3-0 up at half-time".
SON "what happened, did they have 3 men sent off in the second half ? how did Liverpool get back into the game?"
DAD "no, Milan had no men sent off, the Red ***** scored 3 goals in 6 minutes"
SON "against the best defence in Europe"
DAD "yes!!!, against the best defence in Europe"
SON "so what happened next - extra time?"
DAD "yes son, and Dudek made the luckiest save ever to stop a Shevchenko shot from a yard"
SON "why was it lucky dad ? did it hit him on the arse, nose, shoulder or something"
DAD "no son, his hand"
SON "well aren't goalies meant to save shots with their hands"
DAD "yeah but that's besides the point"
SON "then what"
DAD "penalties!"
SON "English teams are crap at penalties"
DAD "not this f#ckin time they weren't ? they only missed one. And that's how Liverpool became the luckiest team to win the European Cup".
SON "but I bet when they brought the cup home there was hardly anyone to watch as all Liverpool fans live anywhere but Liverpool you say. How many was there, 5,000 or so?"
DAD "1 million people lined the streets".
SON "so let's get this straight dad ? Liverpool had 3 good teams in their group, they then knocked out a team who had beaten Real Madrid 3-0, they then knocked out the future Serie A champions, then knocked out the future Premiership champions, before coming back from 3-0 down to beat the 2nd most successful club in Europe. And then the whole population of Liverpool came out to welcome them home!!!!
DAD "that about sums it up son"
SON "dad?"
DAD "yes son"
SON "can I have a Liverpool shirt for my birthday next week, and can you stop calling me Duncan ? I'm Stevie from now on"
SON "Dad, my mates in school told me that Liverpool won the European Cup for the 5th time in 2005 ? are they right dad?

don't know how this post turned into a slagging match... but all I have to say is how are Man Utd doing in the Champion's league?
They cruised through their group without any problems didn't they?
oh...oh... no... wait... they got knocked out.
so... they'll probably win the UEFA cup then, I mean, they're bound to be the best team in it.
oh...oh no... hang on... they came bottom of their group.
HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHA
