Please let it be Liverpool vs Man U. Can't imagine someone like Avram Grant reaching the CL final, let alone winning it. Mourinho would have killed to get there with Chelsea.
Let us see Drogba's sulking face again! If all the Liverpool fans believe that Liverpool will score and WIN this game, they will win. Just have to believe..
I'll try and play some real life Football Manager. If I'm Benitez, I will play with this formation:
Reina
Carragher Hyypia Skrtel Riise
Mascherano
Pennant Gerrard Babbel
Crouch Torres
Hyypia's experience is vital, and Carragher should switch to right back to thwart the threat from Kalou or Malouda. If need be, Riise is able to push up to left mid, and Liverpool will play with 3 DCs (defender centre). Mascherano's place is almost certain in the team, like how Didi Hamann shielded the defence to perfection a few years ago. I need not explain Gerrard's inclusion. The Skipper, the Talisman, the Legend. As for Pennant and Babbel, their main job is to whip in crosses after crosses to Crouch, whose main purpose for his inclusion is to lure Terry and Carvalho to him so that Torres gets the space to do his stuff - score goals.
That's just me for my Liverpool rant/cheer/whatever. Damn. It's 2005 all over again. I was not a bit excited this time last year where they beat Chelsea in the semis but lost to AC Milan in the final eventually. Maybe that was why they failed to beat AC Milan. But this year, I have the feeling of 2005, the year where Liverpool overcame all odds to win the Champions League. It'll be a tall order to beat Chelsea at their backyard, and it'll be an even harder task to beat Man U in the final. Hey hey, I'm thinking about the final already? Focus. One match at a time. Chelsea first. And time to start believing if you have not. Cos I've believed.
