LFC Quarter Final draw!

[MarkD]

Right, in the spirit of new things on the new forum – and because I’ve got a little time…

 

I have randomly selected 8 Liverpool teams from circa the late 70’s to the present day but the majority is from the mid 80’s onwards.

 

Each of the teams (named for ease of use as Team 1 through to Team 8) are laid out to play 4-4-2 with players in the natural position on the whole but subject to some artistic licence occasionally. Some favourites didn’t make it and some less favoured did!

 

The teams have been drawn into 4 quarter finals with the winner going forward to 2 semi finals – to be drawn – and then final to see which team you select as our best combined team (based on these choices), from the eras shown.

 

Below, Team 2 plays Team 4. Your job is to select a winner (2 or 4) saying why if you wish and the one with the most votes will go into the semi draw. I’ll keep this match open for 24 hours (5pm uk tomorrow) before presenting the next match and so on.

 

The draw for the quarters is 2x4, 1x5, 3x8, 7x6. This means nothing to you as you cannot see all the teams but I don’t want any accusations of rigging!!

 

Match 1;

 

Team 2 (at home)

Jesus christ!!

I guess i'll go for Team 2's home advantage to carry them through

Wait till you see some of the other teams!

Not sure about that Gibo. Team 4 are made of steel down the left.

[Cobs]

Team 2 - there's no way Team 4 will make it to the pitch with 11 players

[smithdown]

Neither side would make it out for the second half, Hughes would be tw*tting Traore and Walters would be left in a battered heap in the showers.

 

Who is managing these sides?

 

5-3 to team 2.

[Sion]

Team 4 easy

The lack of Lucasness makes it such an easy decision

Leadership is not important

[Will]

Team 2 would thump Team 4

[Kite]

I'd go for Team 4, so long as someone steals James' Playstation beforehand. Nothing gets past Masch and Lawrenson, Finnan and Aurelio supply Torres, Smicer drops into the hole and Morientes watches it all passing him by ...

[beemer]

Team 4 for me.

Balls.

 

Johnston and Riera would get in a total of 94 crosses which Aldridge would knock in five of, after shoving Crouch out the way.

Lawro would have Togsy in his pocket. Moro would be shackled by big torben

 

Team 2 wins, 4-1

All day.

That may not help them though, seeing as though they are on the same team.

That's throw a spanner in my otherwise flawless calculation

[Knox_Harrington]

Aldo would be made up to be up front with Crouch given his obsession with the big man.

 

I intend to think on this wonderful game.

My view is that I can't bet against Big Jan

 

Because he might find out and kill me.

[smithdown]

We need to know which side has zonal marking, don't we?

[Falconhoof]

Team 2 is a good side. Team 4's midfield would struggle.

Thank you. Thought I'd completely lost the plot of football there for a minute

[Pam]

got to be Team 4 - can't go against Torres and Mascherano!

[yuriska]

Team 4 with a score of 4-3 - just to make it more interesting - with two hat-tricks apiece one for Aldo the other for the Tog, with Smicer getting the winner. In extra time.

[Hassony]

Team 2, Pepe will keep a clean sheet while James will drop a howler to let Aldrige score a late goal

Hello Arsene.

 

It'll be a score draw in normal time. 2-2. Team 4 to win in extra time.
