for the first time in ages we might get some fixture help, at least i see it this way

 

[esmufc07]

I fancy Fulham to get a draw. 1-1.

 

[JayWalker]

@ the europa league theme.

Liverpool : Reina, Johnson, Carragher, Agger, Insua, Lucas, Mascherano, Kuyt, Gerrard, Babel, Torres.

 

[esmufc07]

I thought the Fulham game was first.

Hamburg will win this.

 

[duffer]

Bah, I was just about to start a similar thread called "Thursday night, channel 5".

 

[esmufc07]

It's good seeing Ruud again.

 

[Laphroaig]

Liverpool's shirts are minimalistic tonight because the French don't like beer.

5th but only 4 points behind bourdeaux.

 

[Devilton]

Aquilani on the bench again. Another of Rafa's spectacular buys.

That would have been better.

5th but only 4 points behind bourdeaux.

Cheers. But I read their recent form wasnt any good. But then again, Wigan werent setting the league on fire either.

 

[Devilton]

Hazard with a nice flick. Looks like he's playing in the hole behind the striker.

Kuyt is so shite it's unbelievable.

 

[esmufc07]

What channel is the Liverpool game on?

Edit - Doesn't matter.

 

[x42bn6]

Channel Five have a free stream: Football on Five | UEFA Europa League Football

 

[Devilton]

nice run by Hazard! Made Insua look silly (which doesn't seem to be hard these days)

 

[JayWalker]

Good play by hazard. Insua is absolutely shite.

 

[Makki]

Ooh, Hazard with a great run and low cross, but no Lille player there to connect.

 

[77]

Lille's all over the filthies

 

[Top]

Great start by Hazard.

 

[Devilton]

If Lille go hard at the dippers they will fold like a cheap deck of cards. It's disappointing that Lille's ground doesn't look full. You would think they would be up for it...

Not surprising, grounds are at their fullest against good opposition.

 

[JayWalker]

Phew. Last ditch tackle saves lille.

 

[Devilton]

Dear me...how on Earth can you let Torres just run at you like that? Lille get lucky!

 

[esmufc07]

Hazard looks dangerous.

 

[Devilton]

Rafa taking notes...."Tonite, I shall have ze chicken and a glass of white zinfindale"

 

[phelans shorts]

Hazard looks dangerous.

 

[askabob]

Hazard looks dangerous.

Cringeworthy... but

 

[Devilton]

Lucas gets away with a dirty foul...

typical.

 

[Devilton]

Lille don't have any firepower with Gervinho out. Hard to see where the goals will come from for them.

 

[JayWalker]

Good save by the lille GK.

 

[esmufc07]

Babel should have scored.

 

[Devilton]

Excellent save. Babel was odds on to score there. Nice buildup from Babel and Torres.

 

[Devilton]

Dippers don't look fluid, but this Lille team looks like a championship side team at best...

2-0 Dippers.

 

[Devilton]

Torres gets kicked in the face!

 

[x42bn6]

Pretty boy has broken an eyelash. Horror tackle!

 

[H10]

R.Kazan and Hamburg both 1-0 up.

Sporting down to 10 men vs Athletico Madrid

 

[Drifter]

Very poor game

 

[Devilton]

Lille have no clue what to do in the final third. I don't think there's been one attempt on goal yet.
