ITS ARSENAL NEXT IN THE CARLING CUP
After the euphoria of Sunday’s win over Man Utd, Liverpool face a trip to London to face Arsenal’s youngsters at the Emirates in the 3rd round of the League Cup. This is a trophy that Liverpool have won seven times, a record. However, in the Champions League era, the competition is used by the top […]

LUCAS FINALLY COMES OF AGE
Lucas Leiva had a great game against Man Utd on Sunday. I have been his biggest critic since he first joined Liverpool a couple of seasons ago. But I have to say he was very good yesterday in central midfield alongside Mascherano. He tackled like a man possessed, winning virtually every challenge he went into. […]

RAFA’S REDS BEAT UNITED
Fantastic performance and a great result by Liverpool against Ferguson’s United. 2-0, 2-0, 2-0! Ah Yes! What a great result against our biggest rivals, we played like men possessed for 95mins and deservedly beat Manchester’s finest.

TOUGH TIMES FOR RAFA & HIS REDS
Phew! Who would want to be in Rafa’s shoes right now. Four straight defeats in all competitions, the first time since 1987, an injury list as long as your arm and a tough game against Man Utd this weekend. Not the ideal scenario, in fact, things couldn’t be any worse at Liverpool right now. Torres, […]

TIME TO SUPPORT THE REDS
OK. We have had a poor few results thus far in the League and Champions League. We face Lyon tonight in an important Champion’s League Group game at Anfield. So, how is it going to pan out? Well, we have Steven Gerrard back after injury, so that’s a big plus for us. However, Fernando Torres […]

THIS IS LIKE 2003 ALL OVER AGAIN
Oh God! I am beginning to get a sense of history repeating itself at Anfield. Remember back in 2002 when we finished second in the League to Arsenal, they finished on 87 points while we gained 80 points well ahead of the chasing pack, but no title. We were all expecting the team that time […]

BEACH BALL GOAL DEFLATES LIVERPOOL
God! What next? What a bizarre goal to concede against Sunderland which cost us the game at the so-called ‘Stadium of Light’. Rafael Benitez was without Gerrard and Torres so he shuffled his team around selecting young Jay Spearing and that man Lucas in midfield, five at the back with Agger returning and Babel and […]

RAFA: “STEVIE WOULD HAVE BEEN FIT IF HE WAS HERE ALL WEEK”
We are in trouble. We have a bit of an injury-crisis going into tomorrow’s game against Sunderland. As I reported on Wednesday, Steven Gerrard stayed with the England squad even though he had a groin problem and he even tried to play in a practice match and in doing so, he aggravated the injury even […]
