"Liverpool are in the Worthington Cup Final!"

They must be sooooo proud!

;-p

Ye, was nice to see Nicky Butt make his return as well. Hadnt seen him in ages!

Indeed he does, but the team looked more balanced today than in recent weeks, simply because most of them were playing in their natural positions and Scholes seems to have adapted well to that withdrawn role, 14 goals this season - he's matched his all time best.

Ye, Giggs still looks out of sorts though.

now, why couldn't we have played like that in the premiership fixture at Ewood?

Scholes is a legend!

I would of loved Villa to get into the Worthington Cup Final, but Liverpool scored in the last minute to knock us out :-(

I think that Blackburn will win the Worthington Cup again as they are on really good form at the moment.

FA Cup = Chelsea
Premiership = Arsenal
UEFA = Liverpool
Champions League = AC Milan

So, so true.

Hmm... A little rash perhaps? United aren't definitely going to lose tonight, so we could still play you in the final. Of course, we'll play Forlan up front again.

United are still in the running for a four cup swoop, and on better form to capitalise on our opportunities than Liverpool. At this moment in time though, I will give this as my predictions:

Premiership: Arsenal/Man Utd impossible to say right now.
FA Cup: Anybodies
Worthington Cup: Liverpool
Champions League: (would love an Arsenal/Utd final =D)
Uefa cup: Liverpool.

So there you have it. I can't see Liverpool not taking SOME silverware home this season, but that will be either the Worthington or Uefa cups or both. The only team other than Man U and Arsenal that has much hope of challenging for the title is Newcastle in my opinion.

FA Cup? You never know. After Farnborough slip a 1-0 nil victory over Arsenal, the whole competition will be up in the air...

At the moment it looks like your only route into Europe for next season :P

Hey, don't knock it; this was an important step for us. And more importantly, a step further away from the bad run we had (which nobody else has had, but we're still up there).

We win that, the F.A, and the UEFA, AND get a CL spot, then that will be an above-average season (by our standards :P).

And let's face it, Arsenal will ONLY win the League, and Man Utd will finish empty handed, as is my prediction. Could happen the other way around, but even then, it's only 1 cup to share between 2 teams. Granted, it's the one we all want, but essentially, only 1 of a possible 5 teams will ever have any chance of winning (Man Utd, Arsenal, Liverpool, Chelsea and Newcastle).

I'm rabbiting on a bit now, but my point is this: The fact that it is the Worthless cup is meaningless; it's the win, and inevitably the place in a Final, that will kick-start Liverpool's season again.
