I read this else where and thought it was brilliant so enjoy

in a legacy of great Anfield European nights, Tomorrow's second leg tie against Barcelona could be up there with the most memorable nights of all. Even at 2-1 up, the game is delicately poised. Anything, literally anything could happen - and it's down to us, the Original 12th Man to play a massive part in making sure things go in our favour. The players have done their part in the first leg, now it's our turn.

Whether we like it or not, the time bomb is ticking on Anfield. At most, we have two seasons left after this, so every single European night is, from now on, a precious, treasured experience to store in the memory bank. Let's make sure that this, and every Anfield European night we have left, goes off like a nuclear bomb.

Here are some of the things that football's most respected old heads have been saying about our support recently:

David Pleat
"Anfield is the only stadium in Britain where the crowd is truly the 12th Man. It's a cascade of noise thundering all round the ground and I doubt Barcelona's players will have ever experienced anything like it..."

Bobby Robson
"I think that playing at Liverpool's stadium is one of the most memorable experiences you can have as a footballer," claimed the 73-year-old. "The fans are incredible. It is different. The team belongs to the supporters; it is the team of the city and because of this, they create a very special atmosphere.

"They sing, scream, are noisy and they generate an infernal atmosphere but, at the same time, it is very sporting. Barca can expect to have a bad time in Liverpool. If they go there and do not lose, they will have done well for themselves. The atmosphere that the players will encounter is one of the most stimulating that they could see right now in a stadium. The players will love it."

And they're right. On nights like these, it's not just The Kop that rocks - it's the whole Anfield crowd. Anfield. Say it slowly, because we need to relish every last taste of these electric, deafening, spine-tingling, nerve-shredding, world-famous, tumults of noise and colour that has spread the name of Liverpool Football Club far and wide.

Liverpool versus Barcelona at Anfield - the sudden death, clash of the titans between the last two winners of the world's greatest club competition. It doesn't get any bigger than that. This is the sort of world-stage occasion that has made Liverpool, and our Anfield cauldron, into a worldwide phenomenon. So let's make it a night to remember.

Not just The Kop - wherever you are in the ground, make sure you're seen and heard. Bring your scarves, rosettes, flags old and new. All those classic old banners - from Here e Go Gathering Cups In May to hat's p Doc to ine For My Men… this is our history, and every flag tells a marvellous story. Let's have them all out on Tuesday and raise them proudly, a living, vivid testament to our glorious Anfield past.

This is one night when we have to get in there early and let the Barca players know what they're in for. hen those teams finally walk out onto the pitch, let's hit them with a wall of noise and colour like they haven't known before, and let's drive the Redmen on, all the way to Athens.

1. Get in the ground as early as you can, let's have it rocking as the players warm up.
2. Bring those banners, old and new and hold them up with pride, turn Anfield into a cauldron of passion, colour and noise.

The time bomb is ticking. Let's give Anfield the mother of all blitzkriegs - while we still can.

I'd go with :

Reina

Arbeloa Agger Jc Riise

Sissoko alonso

Finnan Gerrard Pennant

Bellamy

I go 1-0 Liverpool,Alonso will get it.

Allthough he is not at his best lately I'd still put in Kuyt.
Simply because Rijkaard knows him and what he is capable of, he would keep 2 men busy.

I'll go for 2-1 to the Reds :buttrock

Apparently Rafa said a couple of days ago that he's not worried about the system Barcelona will use as he has seen a lot of videos of Barcelona. According to the Barcelona press (I missed that supposed quotes of Rafa) he sees Barcelona anxious.

This words werent of the liking of Rijkaard who answered back that "It will be a pleasure to play against a manager that knows it all" according to Rijkaard "the more you know about football, the more you realise how little you know"

The Barcelona press seem to be very confident. "Mission Possible" and things like that are their headlines. Their confidence ballon grew a lot with Etoo's come back, and didn't burst against Sevilla because they understand they were better. It's their problem, they see fancy football and they just think football it's all about that, they're just not worried because of the vulnerabilities they have.

To be honest it's true that some anxiety is seen in Barcelona camp. Because if you haven't been playing a 3-4-3 and you started to use it this two weeks, and against Sevilla it means that you're not too confident on what you're doing.

Kuyt was interviewed by Spanish press and he was told that Barcelona were playing a 3-4-3. "What??!!" was his natural answer "Barcelona's changed their system??" he answered naturally surprised :laugh:

Kuyt was quite confident in our possibilites. He said that we aren't a defensive team (the journo asked that) but that we do the defensive stuff very well, which is spot on. He spoke highly of the Spaniards, as you can imagine.

We all could see what Barcelona did when we drew the game. They forgot about there were still 90 minutes in Anfield, they removed the only def midfielder they have and they gave away the match. It's hardly surprising Rafa says he sees Barcelona anxious.

Changing a formation for a specific game and trying it out in two weeks is not the best confidence proof. BUt then as some good article writes tonight anything can happen. A Liverpool victory too, because I'm pretty Rafa knows well how to damage a 3-4-3

To those going tonight you lucky lucky b@stards wish someone could sneak me in under their jumper, would give my right arm to be there.
12th man all the way make it more amazing than the CL semi V Chelsea.
Scare buck tooth into submission with his Soul Glow hair style.

Breath down their necks make them sh.it themselves not many of these nights left at Anfield now make this one go down into history as the best ever.

CMON U MIGHTY REDMEN, MAKE US PROUD, YOU KNOW YOU CAN DO IT, OUR LASTCHANCE AT A TROPHEY THIS SEASON, LETS MAKE SURE WE ARE NOT EMPTY HANDED BY THE END OF IT. THE 12TH MAN WILL DO HIS/HER BIT, DO YOUR BIT AND GET US INTO THE QUARTERS.
