We've won a few games in a row now and we are in good form. Do you still hate Rafa?

Anyway, lets hope we can finish Inter at the San Siro tomorrow.

not really, they are beating crappy teams, games they SHOULD be winning. All rafa has to do is not screw with the lineup and he will get a lot more support. Keep playing who is hot, and you see what happens when you start and play pennant, he contributes, unlike babel and lucas who are still to young...

The age has nothing to do about it. As you said before play who is hot, aka on form. Chop them after a period of "get better or your our of the team" Thats how most teams operate. When it comes to a select few matches thats when you can take a risk of swaping a midfielder or striker.

You weren't a closet scummer before they went down were you?

Sad to see a Fareham lad liking any other team than Pompey tbh :p

haha never! nah dads from Middlesbrough and him and brother support those Smoggies, and i chose to support Liverpool like my mum to even out the feuds.

but yeah,never been a Scummer, or Pompey Scum infact, i did support Crystal Palace for a stage and Watford, but i was 3 at the time haha.

A bit like me when I was 6 I supported Man Utd but my Aunty thought I liked Arsenal and used to send me Arsenal kits because he daughter was assistant to the director :laugh: but then I found my true calling...West Ham *silence falls*

i agree but rafa can't get that in his head, a player can score a goal one game and then the next game he won't even play then may not start the next... it makes no sense. if the player is hot ride him until he cools down...

Yes because Inter are a crap team? Beating them home and away is a crap achievement as well?

Babel has been playing really well recently (well, he was crap last night), but before that he was in really good form. The only reason Lucas is recently is because of the change in formation and we generally have to rest one of our three central midfielders now again (and for things like when Alonso's wife had her baby, and when Mascherano got a knock last week).

when you are playing a team that is down to ten men, yeah you SHOULD win, especially when its an italian team that is defensively minded...

I knew Liverpool would get Inter Milan. I just knew it. And boy oh boy, Torres is on fire!

Damn, I hope the final would be something like Manchester United vs. Barcelona, that would be just awesome!

Not always, and that is the beauty of football. Your logic is fundamentally wrong, you are basically saying that theoretically Derby County should beat a ten man Inter Milan side, and if they do not, it is deemed a failure?

Oh, and another little fact for you about the whole rotation balls you keep going on about. Torres has only been rested twice this season when he has been fit to play, and the last of which was six months ago, a certain Cristiano Ronaldo has been rested more.

no i am not saying derby should, i am saying a team with the skill that liverpool possesses should beat inter with ten men, no excuses. If they had not won that game, both of them because inter was down to ten men twice, it would have been a complete embarrassment and you know it.

and wow you named one player, what about games where crouch, pennant, riise, carragher or even stevie g hasn't started for no real season...

Well seeing as Liverpool are playing 4-2-3-1 with Torres as a lone striker up front and (normally) Babel, Gerrard and Kuyt playing off him and on the wings, Crouch can hardly start every game...otherwise people would moan about Torres being rested. It just goes round in circles really.

Riise has been poor this season, and Aurelio is much better. Carragher I believe has played more or less every minute of our season I believe. Maybe Pennant should play more often, but our formation is working well at the moment and we have a balanced team, if we changed it we would only draw more critisism. As I said, it works in circles.

Now about that family rajput...

;)

Liverpool won 2-1!

Ronaldo broke Pride Park hearts as Derby went down to a late goal and lost 1-0! I salute Derby! What a match! They only need a goal scorer and they would have won it!

Derby have pretty much lacked that all season a goal scorer that is, Kenny Miller is good but not that good.

Seventh straight win for Liverpool :)

i have nothing to argue about, seven straight and i am lovinig it, this family may have a chance...

now it's all about next week, going to be a war with my dad (man u supporter DIE HARD) and me. oh its going to great

Pomepy beat Aston Villa 2 - 0

Muntari and Melberg got sent off due to second yellows. Defore scored again! Baros sounds lively and caused problems. Hopefully we can buy him and pair him up with Defoe and Kanu.

I really think this could be Pompeys year! FA Cup and a good table finish.

    • Microsoft launches Godot Sample to streamline Xbox PC game development on the engine by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Microsoft today announced a new endeavor that aims to make it simpler for Godot developers to get their products into the Xbox PC ecosystem. Dubbed the "XBOX Godot Sample," this is a new public reference for developers using the open-source engine. This is set to serve as an example of how Microsoft GDK, Xbox Services, and PlayFab can be integrated into their projects. The sample is available now on GitHub as a working example. This covers key features in gaming projects that developers may need to release their projects on Xbox PC, with everything from matchmaking and game sign-in to gamepad compatibility with Godot being covered. This release is being called the first step in giving Godot developers the tools to bring their games over to Xbox PC, with more changes to come based on feedback and issue reports. However, the company was clear that this is not related to bringing Godot projects to Xbox consoles. The engine's open development model stops it from accessing console SDKs due to the requirement of NDAs and legal contracts. Here's how it explained this Godot sample project's focus: This is a source-only sample, not a product. It's MIT-licensed at the wrapper layer; the GDK and PlayFab dependencies still require their own installs and license acceptance, consistent with our other XBOX samples. There is no set update cadence for support or maintenance. We’ll watch the repo, monitor issues, and iterate where it makes sense, but this isn't a commercial release. That said, we’re excited to hear your feedback and see any community PRs, as we evolve this together. This is the first step in bringing Godot for XBOX on PC. We plan to evolve it over time based on what the community tells us is most valuable. This sample is built specifically for XBOX on PC. It doesn’t include support for XBOX Series X|S or XBOX One. If you’re already building for XBOX Series X|S or XBOX One, please talk with your XBOX representative. If not, you can get started by signing up here. Game developers can find the XBOX Godot Sample by heading to GitHub over here. Documentation on how to get started with Godot for building an Xbox PC project can be seen here.
    • I don't understand the vision. Do people really want to buy a new computer from Dell with 6 browsers installed? We all keep asking for Microsoft to stop having so much junk on their OS, and adding a bunch of browsers seems to go against that. Ideally, we would just be asked what browser we want during OOBE but Google is just going to pay Dell a bunch of money to include Chrome. Additionally, would you want your phones to start including all the browsers too when you get them? The only thing I ever wanted was to be able to uninstall IE or edge and I believe you are now able to. I do agree that microsoft needs to chill with their "are you sure you don't want to try edge before you install chrome" ads when going to download chrome.
    • It is notable that around 70% of web browser users choose Google Chrome. However, it is puzzling why anyone on Windows would opt for Chrome when Microsoft Edge is often superior in many aspects and comes pre-installed. Edge collects less data, uses less RAM, and is more optimized for Windows as a native Microsoft product. While some may point to bloat in Edge, much of it can be removed with simple tools, requiring no more effort than installing Chrome. Meanwhile, Chrome reportedly downloads large amounts of AI data (4 GB) without explicit consent. I'm sure you Chrome users love that, or? Here is one example of a tool that doesn't even need to be installed to be able to use: https://github.com/TheBobPony/MSEdgeTweaker Although Microsoft’s aggressive promotion of Edge may be questionable, the browser’s current advantages make it a preferable choice over Chrome today, even if Chrome may have been better in the past.
    • JetBrains rolls out IntelliJ IDEA update with Markdown preview fixes and more by David Uzondu Image via JetBrains IntelliJ 2026.1.3 from JetBrains has landed, bringing several highly requested bug fixes that target common UI glitches and terminal rendering issues. If you run tmux inside the integrated terminal, the IDE no longer renders the cursor above the active line. The Markdown preview bug, which was fixed in this release, had annoyed developers for quite some time, as the preview pane failed to render images saved outside the project directory. Instead of displaying the actual image, the IDE simply showed a broken image icon, a problem that stuck around for two years before this update. Over on Windows, developers running WSL can now use wsl.exe to spin up their environments without losing terminal functionality. In previous builds, launching a terminal shell with something like wsl.exe -d ubuntu inside a Windows-based project broke both shell integration and active process detection. Other bug fixes in this release include: An issue where Gradle sync incorrectly reported success as a failure on WSL when using Gradle 9.5.0. A syntax highlighting bug that flagged valid Java for-loop initialization blocks with multiple statements as incorrect. A warning bug that triggered a false non-null local variable alert when using JSpecify annotations. A database generation bug that hid the option to use a DELETE statement instead of a TRUNCATE checkbox. A Kotlin highlighting failure where an assertion error in the Gradle redundant library inspection broke error highlighting. A UI bug where the ComboBox popup lacked a maximum height restriction. A Snowflake syntax error where DataGrip failed to support the "create temp" command. A Svelte syntax parsing failure that incorrectly flagged quotes inside inline expressions. A VCS repository manager deadlock that triggered thread pool exhaustion. A memory leak where the LazyTree component kept all previous versions of a tree in memory. IntelliJ 2026.1.3 is the third bug fix release for the IntelliJ 2026.1 series. The first one landed back in April with a fix for the WSL Python interpreter freeze, another fix for guest participants using Emmet abbreviations, and corrected WildFly server deployment errors.
