No Torres, no Gerrard, away to Sunderland, let's see how good they really are!

Thought exactly the same thing when I saw the news. Would be surprised by anything other than a Sunderland win as Liverpool can't afford to play for the draw.

Guys Willhill are 14/5 for a Sunderland win.

Ive just stuck a tenner down.

D Bizzle is 7/1 first scorer as well

Even with a full squad this would've been a tough test for Liverpool. Sunderland are playing really well lately. I thought it would have been a draw, but with Torres and Gerrard out, I think Sunderland should win.

These are one of those where you would expect Liverpool to lose because they're without the 'big two' in Gerrard and Torres, however, I think it will be the total opposite and Liverpool will win comfortably. Benayoun and I think even Babel will shine in a game like this.

It's a huge game for Liverpool as they have a tough run coming up, starting with Man Utd straight after this game. I thought they might struggle at Sunderland anyway the way they have been playing but I have a sneaky feeling they might just get lucky in this game now. Don't really know why.

Sunderland is a strong and well balanced team this year. Jones and Bent is like a cheaper version of Anelka and Drogba

I predict Sunderland to win and various sad posters to do "why did we sell Bent" threads.

Are Cana and Cattermole back? Sod Bent or Jones, their middle is why they're doing well and will continue to do well. Oppos shit themselves at that, and rightly so.

Masch will surely be struggling given his midweek exertions and Lucas is no match for either, so, yeah, I can see Sundland getting at least a point.

Liverpool's defence has been pretty crap this season so that's another weakness that Sunderland should exploit

Hilarious goal from Bent. He hit it, it deflected off this big balloon/ball thing that was on the pitch and flew straight past Reina. Benitez won't be happy about that at all.

Love the way Reina looked at the balloon, trying to save that instead of the ball :grin:
