Hopefully not. The way they got so angry last time when we parked the bus >

:lol: in all seriousness though we need to get a good result at Anfield. That way we won't have to exert ourselves too much at SB and will be fresher for the crucial match against City a few days later. If we park the bus in the first leg things will likely be made unnecessarily difficult for the return leg. I trust (hope) Jose won't go too cautious in this match but his approach to SFs always has me worried.

Wow that is gruelling - oh well we'll see what we are made of in the next 45 days :)

Then CL kicks back in mid Feb.

Make it five. The FA Cup 4th round game will be right in between the Liverpool games. That's if Chelsea gets past Watford, of course.

Given we have a tough run of fixtures in January, was hoping we got Sheffield United instead. To get Liverpool is just :doh:. Anyway, we could potentially face them in three straight games if we draw them in the FA Cup, assuming both of us win the third round ties.

the watford game is going to be a rest for all the main 11. but the trickiest of the lot is whu on 26th, soton on 28th and spurs on 1st. need the perfect balance and need schurrle and salah to step up while rambo to get fit!!
