MAGNIFICENT WIN AT OLD TRAFFORD

Four goals against Madrid midweek and four again today against our hated enemy in their own backyard! With no Alonso and Arbeloa crying off injured minutes before the game, I admit I thought we had no chance, how wrong could I be. Even going behind to Ronaldo (pouf) penalty, didn’t halt Liverpool’s determination to win […]

LIVERPOOL GET REAL AT THE BERNABAU

What a fantastic result and performance by Liverpool last night. Good marking and closing down of the Madrid team, excellent shape and discipline and the all important away goal to get a famous victory in Spain. If only we could do this in the League all the time then we would be sitting pretty top […]

LIVERPOOL HELD BY MAN CITY

Liverpool dropped two more valuable points at Anfield by Mark Hughes’ Manchester City. Without injured captain Steve Gerrard and suspended linchpin, Xabi Alonso, this was always going to be a difficult match to win. So it proved with Dirk Kuyt coming to the rescue after Liverpool fell behind to an Arbeloa own goal. So the […]

A game I was hoping Fulham would draw but they seem to have slipped away from their early season form. So now we are five points behind the scum as we enter the crux part of the season. I have always said we needed to beat the Mancs at their own ground to stay in […]

TWO WEEKS TO TAKE STOCK

So with the midweek Internationals and the weekend FA Cup ties, which, sadly, we are not involved in, its an enforced break of two weeks for Liverpool. We don’t play Manchester City until the following weekend. This gives captain Steve Gerrard a chance to recover from his hamstring injury, although he won’t be ready again […]

LIVERPOOL GET THERE IN THE END

Despite a bizarre team selection by Benitez, Liverpool won an upside down game in injury time by three goals to two against lowly Portsmouth. I dunno going with three centre halves and three full backs was a strange choice. It wasn’t until the second half that things became more organised with the introduction of Alonso, […]

IT’S ONLY THE CUP

Ok, we are out of the FA cup to our arch rivals Everton, but its the Premiership we really want this year so I am not too worried about going out at this stage. Once Steve Gerrard went off with a hamstring, I knew we were up against it and when that amateur Lucas got […]

Torres Wins It For Liverpool

Ah bliss! Torres came to the rescue today when I was beginning to feel we were heading for another dreaded draw. Liverpool were the better team throughout having eighteen shots on goal in total, Chelsea had only two. In the first half, chances were at a premium as Chelsea packed men behind the ball. When […]

KEANES FUTURE IN DOUBT AGAIN

Robbie Keane has been left out of Rafa Benitez’s squad again , casting into fresh doubt his future at his boyhood club again. It has become obvious in recent times that Keane was not Benitez signing, as I have said here before, Rick Parry wanted the Irishman at the club, while instead Rafa Benitez wanted […]
