FA Cup 2015

Don't know about that. What has Gerrard ever done to make the powers in the universe care about him? He don't seem to have had them on his side lately at least, what with crucial slips and 30 second red cards.

This is Liverpools last hope of salvaging something from this season and finish on a high and ignite some optimism for next season. And the stage is set for Stevie G's final big moment, ridiculously so even, what with the birthday and all. Brendans job probably rides on this match as well.

All the sweeter it will be then, to take a wrecking ball to it all and nail the coffin shut once and for all.

Fleet Street will echo with the sounds of crumpled papers landing in bins.

Gerrard's career is nose-diving towards an ignominious finale, he'll score an own-goal in the cup final to gift us the trophy and will walk off in tears as Rodgers subs him off in order to give him one last standing ovation, which itself will be drowned out by jeers from the Arsenal fans. Can't wait!

Kolo! 😆 How can you not love that man?

Rex

It makes me sad to see him now. In his pomp he was a wonderful CB, and now he is reduced to this.

Klaus

I just pretend that it's a different Kolo Touré who's been running around out there since 2006. It works great for me.

Rex

Not so much for me. 🙁

I'm just telling myself that he's actually doing all of this on purpose. Just to wind up the 'Pool fans and keep us Gooners amused.

Khanuppet

I'm with est, Agent Kolo is on the case!

I literally ROFLed even time Kolo touched the ball. We need a gif of the little chip pass near his own box that was so overhit it went straight out.

That has to be the worst touch in the history of football 😆

Doesn't make me sad at all, the fact that he's doing this stuff for Liverpool just adds to his cult status.

I think it's fair to say we got the best years of King Kolo!

Biggus

You may lose your pace and recovery from injury as you grow older you don't lose your touch, the reverse is more true.
But it's like he's forgotten everything he learned in football

Rohit

No other manager has got as much out of him as Wenger did. I still get annoyed thinking Wenger chose to let him go rather than Gallas when it was clear they just couldn't partner each other any more.

If your mate did that on Hackney Marshes, you would rip him to shreds. Fucking hell. 😆

He was a supreme athlete and relied on that so the quick decline didn't surprise me at all. Sol was completely running everything at the back, incredible defender. He just needed some hard-workers around him and he got them. I think it was fine to let Toure go when we did, neither Vermaelen or Gallas could lead properly and I think Kolo wanted a change too/money/trophy challenge. Sol was the one we could've kept. But there was that circus when he walked out V West Ham and he seems a difficult person to manage.

goon

Sol was well past it by the time he left, both mentally and physically.

That whole invincibles team declined pretty rapidly. I'd say the only one we should have kept longer was Pires, given that we often ended up with Diaby and Eboue on the wings in the seasons that followed. Can make the same case for Bertie. I think both wanted to leave by then though.

Kolo's one is alot worse 😆

Get in 1-1! Benteke with a lovely finish after Coutinho's deflected fluke.
