IS KENNY RIGHT ABOUT ROONEY’S BAN REDUCTION?

Liverpool Manager Kenny Dalglish surprisingly opened a can of worms at his press-conference on Thursday when he questioned the reduction of Man Utd’s Wayne Rooney getting a three-game ban reduced to two games for next year’s Euro Finals. Kenny Dalglish was quizzed about his views on the FA’s successful appeal that means Wayne Rooney’s England […]

MAN UTD & CITY OUT OF CHAMPION’S LEAGUE HA HA

Watching Man Utd crash out of the Champion’s League Group stage has helped me get over Liverpool’s defeat to Fulham no end. It is great to see our fiercest rivals lose at any time but to lose such an important match is terrific. Basel beat Utd 2-1 with Streller and Frei scoring for the Swiss […]

LIVERPOOL LOOSE AT FULHAM & BAR CHART OF RESULTS

An unfortunate defeat at Craven Cottage, 1-0 at the hands of Martin Jol’s Fulham. It was a very open game with lots of shots on goal by either team as both Pepe Reina and Mark  Schwarzer were kept busy throughout the match. The turning point in the game was the sending off of Jay Spearing for […]

LIVERPOOL 2011/2012 PERFORMANCES GRAPH

With the hectic Christmas period fast approaching, I thought it was time to assess our performances to date in the Premier League and the Carling Cup thus far. We have played 17 games so far this season, winning ten, drawing 5 and losing only 2. Reasonable results by any standard. What is obvious to everyone […]

SHOULD WE SIGN ANELKA & CAN KUYT REPLACE LUCAS?

Rumours abound that Liverpool may be looking to sign Nicolas Anelka in the January Transfer-Window, either on loan, or to buy him for around £4 million. The former Liverpool striker, under Gerrard Houllier, is out of favour and soon out of a contract at Chelsea. Since the arrival of Villas Boas and the purchase of […]

LIVERPOOL DRAW MAN CITY IN CARLING SEMI-FINALS

Liverpool have been drawn away to Man City in the first leg of the Carling Cup semi-finals. It would have been nice to have drawn either Cardiff or Crystal Palace after their great defeat of Man Utd, but we are playing so well right now that we don’t mind who we face. Semi-Final Draw: CARLING […]

LIVERPOOL BEAT CHELSEA AGAIN 2-0

Liverpool sensationally beat Chelsea at Stamford Bridge for the second time in 9 days. They may thank Craig Bellamy for his role in setting up the two goals for Maxi and Martin Kelly in the 2nd-half. The result stretches Liverpool’s unbeaten run to 11 in all competitions and we kept another clean sheet. Kenny Dalglish […]

LIVERPOOL PLAYER RATINGS V MAN CITY

After a very creditable performance that we were unlucky (again) not to win, a draw against runaway leaders, Man City was a decent result and had it not been for Joe Hart’s heroics in goal for City, Liverpool would and should have gotten all three points. Yet, the manner of the performance, especially in the […]

POSSIBLE TEAM V MAN CITY FOR SUNDAY

In Sunday’s crunch-match I have gone for almost the same team that Kenny put out against Chelsea, with Downing returning for Maxi. Bellamy is a real handful running at defences either wide or central as shown from his goal-scoring pass to Maxi. Downing is a left-sided winger and he should be played there, with Kuyt […]
