Mr Mark Lawrenson's prediction .

frOst^~^nOva SG

I hope Robbie Keane nets his first goal for Liverpool.

I think the lack of goals is affecting his confidence at the moment.

Poolman SG

Here are all the pre-match stats and facts ahead of Saturday's Barclays Premier League clash with Stoke City at Anfield.

Poolman SG

Ya man , i really hope our Keano break his duck .... confidence will built up like Crouch , i remember , against Wigan .

frOst^~^nOva SG

Ya man , i really hope our Keano break his duck .... confidence will built up like Crouch , i remember , against Wigan .

Yeah I rem tt game when crouch scored with a shot that was deflected so high over the keeper. But he scored a second in the game and the goals started to flow

Hope Keane does the same.

YNWA!

Poolman SG

Dunno if Torres will be back ... not likely Benitez risked him for lowly team like Stoke City .

Hope Torres given a late run-in .

Medicated Oil SG

I think Ah Ben will field his second team to warm them up for the EPL.

Torres still need some time to recover his form.

As for Keane, he will earn a penalty or induce a yellow or red card.

Babel will score again.

this is precisely the reason why liverpool has not won the league for past 18 years.

3 points gained from man utd and they give it away to stoke city.

worse, while chelsea is playing man utd, it is the best opportunity to stretch the lead.

it would have been a sucker punch if not for reina.

29 shots.. not a single farking goal.

Poolman SG

what second string ?

Ah Ben fielded almost the full squad , except Mascherano and Babel ...

Fielded a Gerrard-less and Torres-less , and beaten Man utd , full team cannot beat Stoke ?

limpper SG

the win against man utd is because of man utd off form, not we soooo good. that's why i always say, with or without gerrard, liverpool have no big differences. what we need is still a world class winger. see the game against stoke today, still the same thing, BORING ~

Poolman SG

i still dunno why our 3rd minute goal disallowed for ?

Poolman SG

Dossena ...urghhhh , i dun like him .

Poolman SG

same old story ... hangover , at the win in France .

Patrik SG

Haiz.

Is Liverpool starting to disappoint us again?

When we doubt them,they win.

When we expect them to win,they either draw or lose.

that goal is because of the rubbish kuyt, he was offsided and the lineman thought he touched the ball before it entered the goal. therefore, goal invaild.

limpper SG

Dossena ...urghhhh , i dun like him .

Dossena not bad leh to me. he is one of the better left back i ever seen in recent liverpool years. although true enough, riise is really good in his long shots and crossing, but he's slow in cutting into defenders, and don really know how to attack as a wing back. but this dossena different, he does know how to cut, and attack well, just abit of problem with his getting back and the way he play when he attack. torres seem to be suffering from 2nd season blues huh? lol

i totally agree with you. so stupid of liverpool to do that. fight so hard for that 3points against man utd, and when they got, they lost it easily to teams like stoke -.-

i desperately hope liverpool can have a world class winger. really. riera not bad, but his pace still need improvement. we need someone of quaresma playing style, can cut into defenders and is very pacy.

stoke played the right tactic. negative approach, but right tactic.

only team like arsenal could deal when visitor try to park a bus in front of their goal post. a few one-two is the only way to lure the defenders outta their hole.

with 11 defenders inside the penalty box, u try to attack with crosses and long balls? who have more heads near the goal posts?
