Just been on RAWK (urgh).

Boy, are they confident.
I'm seeing a mix, i think some are slowly realising spurs have nothing to lose. We repeatedly were told that spurs would go out of the groups , then lose to dortmund, city and ajax and each time they were wrong. Now a ton of pundits say that liverpool will win it no problem. Suddenly all the pressure is on liverpool and none on spurs, the team that has defied all the pundits predictions multiple times. It's an interesting situation, obviously i want us to win it but i'm not nervous, i'm really excited.

Thanks to the wonders of Google's search engine, I've gone from being baffled by this gif to being baffled as to why you'd choose to post this gif. Good work, TM.

OMFG I want to win so bad.

An Arsenal fan who I work with wants us to win so they can finally hit rock bottom and anything next season with be an improvement.



Then I reminded him with their ageing squad relegation isn't out of the question! :LOL:

If there is a result which would somehow wipe Piers Morgan from this mortal coil, we, as humankind, should all rally behind that result.

Cannot concentrate at all today. So excited/nervous and everything in between for tomorrow night that my hands are even shaking.

Wearing the green 3rd shirt in the office today and the many Liverpool fans I work with have largely avoided talking about the game, which is out of character for them (they usually talk about nothing else on a Friday before a match), so I'm guessing they're all feeling a bit nervous too.

I think I am going to be a nervous wreck for much of tomorrow, and will need a beer as soon as I get into N17 just to steady my nerves!
I just read Jamie Redknapp predicting it going to penalties- This strikes terror into me as we have such an appalling record with them and I fancy Allison maybe better at saving them than Hugo( yes, I know he's saved a couple recently). I wonder how much time we devote to penalty taking and tactics( order etc) in training. I'm sure Poch once intimated he didn't bother too much with it but then he is a wind up merchant!

Just been watching some of the build up on BT Sport. With the arrogant a-hole McManamanaman commentating, it really makes you appreciate Jenas and Hoddle. Thank Christ for Jenas and Hoddle, basically.

There is about a zero chance this match goals to Penalties, surely.
