my early thots ...

2-0, 1-1, 1-0, 0-0, 0-1, 0-2

__________________

Liverpool - the 2005 champion - traveled to Eindhoven without Norway left-back John Arne Riise, who injured his ankle in Saturday's 3-0 Premier League defeat at crosstown rival Everton.

Liverpool manager Rafa Benitez was able, however, to include defenders Daniel Agger and Gabriel Paletta and striker Craig Bellamy in the squad.

Defense will be under scrutiny after lapses on Saturday.

Pepe Reina was criticized for his goalkeeping against Everton, but Benitez said he was confident in the Spaniard.


Koeman will lead PSV in a Champions League match for the first time since taking over from Guus Hiddink during the offseason.

Koeman was in charge of Benfica last season and led his team to a 1-0 win in Lisbon and a 2-0 win at Liverpool.

PSV will be without influential captain Phillip Cocu, who is serving a one-match suspension, for the start of its 10th consecutive Champions League campaign.

Brazilian defender Alex, rested in Saturday's 3-1 win over Willem II, will be restored to the starting lineup at the expense of Ghana's Eric Addo.

New signing Patrick Kluivert could make his debut for PSV after missing Saturday's match due to lack of fitness.

Jan Kromkamp is set to start at right-back against his old club, while veteran defender Michael Reiziger will deputize for Koeman's only injury worry, left-back Michael Lamey.

After a shaky start to the season, PSV convincingly beat Willem II with two goals from offseason signing Edison Mendez and a penalty by Jefferson Farfan.

bro qw2op, if i win how? u already up me leh... i have a very bad feeling that liverpool might drop this game too!!! but for me to predict that liverpool will lose, errrr, over my dead body!

i guess liverpool will win this 2-1 with crouch hitting the target. i m going to get it right someday!!! now u know why i chopped hand, dont bet. millions also not enough to lose ah...

so psv took in kluivert? at least he got a club, deportivo's diego tristan is in limbo. and stefano fiore is still owned by valencia, on loan to fiorentina last season, played quite well with a few goals, but loaned to torino now. i hate to see good players being discarded like that.

i am not touching psv vs liv, but i will bet big on liv next epl match, against chelski is it?

The last time I predicted that the home team, Everton will win Liverpool by 1-0 & the Reds got thrashed by the Toffeees 3-0.

I am predicting 1-0 win by the home team, PSV Eindhoven again, with Kluivert scoring the solitary goal.

juz bear in mind that Pool is an unpredictable team.

odds may favour Pool cos of reputation n strength but general mkt sentiments say that form n homeground adv may prevail as PSV has a decent chance of beating them.

however 1 shd not rule Pool out as past results in ECL had shown that they can perform in d big stage when it matters.

as usual im staying out of Pool game cos permutations can swing in any direction. bet what yr gut feeling says but keep yr bets within yr limits.

for my ECL bet so far, taking a conservative +1.5 (payout 1.58x) for Werder Bremen vs Chelsea.

G'luck all punting bros!!!

tks hope they can mantain or consistent.

hahaha, bro qw2op, me also not too sure about the points system. but the system shows i can up 1 samster (nowadays quite a few ladies here, so cant use "bro") every 24 hours.

think u cant add to my points anymore and since i have added u, i cant add yr points again for a long, long time, i guess.

i didnt guess correctly again, so i will have to try again while u keep up the good work with this prediction thread. happy with last nite's score though. PSV are not exactly pushovers.

as for the points, i dont mind at all. moreover, quite a number of bros here have actually upped my points. so i have enough to let people zap me, and touch wood, i wont have to be subjected to moderation again. quite surprised cos u probably can see that i m actually quite antagonistic towards manure and chelski but their fans here are actually magnanimous towards me by not zapping me for my comments. and i actually got enough points to ask for fl contacts.

oh, by the way, bro naemlo, thanks for your points but i cant add u back cos i have already done so for your pics thread.

kluivert oh kluivert. he had so much potential but somehow he didnt manage to develop them. i felt that he wasnt too good even when he was with barcelona. think it has something to do with his mentality. something tells me he is not agressive enough although one might evidently see his talent, especially when he was much younger.

tristan is even worse, but i guess he is also very injury prone. deportivo didnt get the best of him after his high profile signing. sad to see him not even offered a contract by any team. last heard, the pension team, bolton was interested but they opted to go for anelka, another player who is not playing to his full potential.

sad to see such players struggling as well.
