NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.... I REFUSE TO!

We need to be absolutely and utterly focused. We've turned up there a few times and played very, very well only to be undone by individual mistakes.
A couple of seasons ago a Vertonghen brace put us 2-1 up only for Walker to lose his mind, and in Poch's first season we were 1-0 up and cruising when Lloris unfortunately made one of his big game howlers.
This can't happen this time. If we're 100% at it, don't make any obvious individual mistakes, then I think we can win.
Just decided this minute, must win. We cant allow Chelsea to win the PL by March (Chelsea must have a poor run at some point-I've prayed to the football gods every night). We must keep going - Liverpool will turn up for this, could be a turning point for them and as its us, will give it 100%. They were fortunate against Chelsea and got the draw which shows, they can give it some when they want to. Cant see us not winning and hopefully get all 3 points.
Alli -Kane give em hell.
I know we don't do this, but we see any mid-lower table side play with a low-block against liverpool and win. Won't be surprised if we win easily there, but i'm always prepared to see a shocking performance (ie.: vs United). You adapt your feelings throughout the years to disappointment and celebrate the good moments intensely
Not sure about this one. Liverpool have been horrific lately but they always seem to step it up a gear against us. No idea why. We're not really rivals, other than both competing at the upper end of the table, are we?
i say just play our own way, the way we are good at. I think we have more than enough to beat them.The diamond formation might work. Liverpool are suckers when it comes to counter attacks. Hull did them. We can obliterate them with our superior firepower.
Everyone stay compact, let Liverpool have the ball, then BOOM and hit them with the counter.
Pienaar lol.Incredibly, this was the last team to beat Liverpool at Anfield
[formation=4411, Cudicini, Kaboul, Dawson, King, Rose, Lennon, Modric, Sandro, Pienaar, van der Vaart, Crouch][/formation]
The way the media portray it, you'd have thought it was the team from 1985 (the 'Crooks' goal!) 85 years since the Titanic sunk etc. etc. et-fucking-cetera! (I thought it was!!)
he played a blinder that day, and very well at Citeh too a week or 2 before. Very unlucky with injuries with us. Without them he could have done a very good job for us.Pienaar lol.
I think it's just that Ashley (and Derek Llambias) are both Spurs fans... nothing more.
I know someone who worked in one of Ashley/Llambias' Casinos in London... said they were both a pair of pricks!!
So no great shocks there then, eh? Hardly ITK... more like ITS (I Thought So)
Ashley is a Chelsea fan, his ex-wife is a Spurs fan.
Rose out for this one.
We are going to be half the team we can be as there will not be too much pressure down their right hand side.
We miss Rose probably more Walker. When Rose is out the attacking balance goes. So does a lot of the power and aggression.
Also I am not too sure about Dier at CB either. Made a couple of bad mistakes against Boro and we were lucky not to get punished.
Don't know why everyone expects us to go up there and whack them. Love to see that but it's not going to happen really. It's going to be a very tough game.
It's al going to be won in midfield in my opinion.
I don’t expect Poch to change his tactics, he has never done so before so I don’t think he will now.
Treat it as a cup final and Klopp will fail.

Any excuse:Ah the thought of VDV in the hole still give me a semi.
Kinda wish we'd signed him on a pay per play back in the summer instead of letting him get snapped up by Midtjylland. Think he would have worked well with the Cup/B/yoof Team.
He did at Woolwich last year?
I think Poch is well aware of how to win (or rather not lose) at the big away grounds. I hope we set up in a similar manor on Saturday - defend in our own half, keep it compact, dare them to break us down and smash them up on the counter.
My only worry is if Hugo gets blinded by the floodlights reflecting off of Firminho's teeth.
We have a different mindset this season. There is no reason why we should feel , its all going to go wrong. We are a decent side, playing well and getting results even when we under perform. This game is all about them, will they turn up, we will be there. This is a good time to play them, its not after Europe or sqeezed into a tight squedule. Weve had a weeks rest, players will be up for it. They will not fancy this.At our very best, we walked to victory over Chelsea.
At our worst, we came from from 2 down to 2-2 away to City...who were at their best.
Liverpool dont worry me, but Spurs do. Thats still the problem
