Liverpool FC vs Tottenham Hotspur
It is ironical that we have had 2 games which are crucial to our re-entry into Europe against teams that are likewise so. Within a week, we tried but lost the last Champions League spot to Manchester City in a midweek game, and now we are fighting with Liverpool for the only Europa spot remaining on the table.
It has been a roller-coaster season for us, with a breakthrough to the last 8 in this season's Champions League and a promise of returning to that competition next season. However, our bad form (and luck) in the past 2 months has prevented us, and we are now in a risk of languishing without an European return, a thought which was deemed as impossible back in February of this year.
Anfield is the next place to go, and this, as compared to our Tuesday visit to Manchester, would be a tougher fixture. Liverpool is on a rise, along with their recent thumping victories and news of their "King" Dalglish renewing his managerial contract. This is no longer the Liverpool that we had beaten back at the Lane. This is a Liverpool where even without the departed Torres and the injured Gerrard could still pack a punch to whoever they are facing.
Our lineup would be the same as per the game against Manchester City back in the midweek, with probably 1 or 2 swaps in the midfield and in the front.
The atmosphere will be electrifying at Anfield, with fans probably celebrating the true return of their king and a return to Europe after defying all odds. Hopefully among the sea of red some white dots on the field would bring a difference.
COYS!!!!!
