Liverpool Vs Chelsea (PL) Tue 31/01 2017 KO 20:00 GMT

Usually we don't have two match threads on the go at the same time, but because the dippers game is so important i think we need to get this one up and running, no disrespect to Brentford.

Win this and we win the title. 

That's how I'm feeling about the game. This and the Arsenal game are where our rivals are looking for us to drop significant points come through this one and the Arsenal game with at least four points then I think everyone else will struggle to catch us.

I think this is the sort of game where Pedro can run riot and cause lots of problems, he's probably going to stretch that Liverpool defence more than anyone with his direct play.

Really looking forward to watching this one.

Remember when this fixture used to nearly always be draw, and with only one draw to our name all season, i think we may be due another. Will settle for it as well tbh.

I've always thought, when you look at the fixtures against your rivals at the top each season, you should be aiming for a draw away and a win at home. Obviously having already lost 3 of them, it would be nice to pick up 3, but considering the gap we have, a draw would be a good result and would stop liverpool closing us down any more.

Anyone going?

4 points from this and arsenal and we will be very hard to catch, massive games in the title race.

I'm heading over to it but still no ticket due to not enough points on membership.

I'm in the Kop lol f**ked up getting tickets in the away end.  My mate got me one in the Kop.  

I am afraid for this tie I'll be honest 

Nathan Redmond absolutely ripping apart the right side of Liverpool's defence right now. Shame Southampton can't finish.

I have a good feeling about this one. We will score the first goal and get at least a draw.

I'm a little worried cause they've lost so many recently. I fear they will get a win against the odds.

They have not beaten any PL team (in all competitions) this year...

Which is one reason I fear because we've seen this before with clubs then when the odds are seemingly stacked they fight back.

Sturridge on good form tonight. Hope their shooting is as poor next week

I know what you mean. But still, I prefer going to Anfield now when they are shambles.

 

As a side note, Mark Clattenburg will be the referee for this fixture.

As of late Liverpool looks terrible...Hope at the very least we can manage a draw

f**k that lets do the f**kers in their own back yard, take all 3 points and kick them out of it

Can we play them Saturday instead?....if we are on our game we could put 4 past them....just need to defend well...frustrate them and kill them off....and leave Anfield with them flopping around outside the top 4.

 

We need to win here and then beat Arsenal at Home.
We need to take renvege for the first game we lose.

0-2 Costa nad Hazard.

 

Liverpool look poor without Mané, any news on whether Firminio misses this one? They are in avsolute shambles atm, vouldnt ask for a better time to play them.
