I don’t want to be smug about it………
but I was right. And it is the most gut-wrenching, heart-aching, and soul destroying feeling in the world. I take absolutely no-pride in being right about our current situation. Yes those few short months ago, when I had fellow Liverpool fans lining up round the corner to tell me “Roy is the man to steady [...]
Right Royally!
Ok – so that leaves us the league (extremely unlikely) and the Europa League (extremely pointless) to aim for – not good, not before January is out. I can handle losing to Reading, I really can – I just don’t accept that they were better than us. The telly love to use words like plucky, [...]
Keeping the Wolves from the door
Firstly, let me apologise for the lack of posts recently, it’s been a very busy and odd time. Liverpool’s victory over Wolves on Boxing Day has given Rafa a bit of breathing space, as has the shenanigans down the M62 at Eastlands (I can’t help but think Rafa must have raised a nice glass of [...]
Realistic or defeatist?
After our draw with Man Citeh at the weekend, Rafa has come out and stated that Liverpool will definitely finish in the top four this season – seemingly giving up on the title before November is out. 13 points behind the leaders we may be but does anyone want to hear that our aim for [...]
Where to go from here?
A dozen players out, half the league games played lost, every man and his dog on the managers back – hardly the ideal preparation for a critical Champions League tie is it? The Fulham defeat was hardly a massive giant-killing – Woy Hodgson has put together a useful unit at Craven Cottage and is an [...]
Missing Masch a blessing?
After Liverpools 4-0 victory over Burnley at the weekend, I’ve been thinking whether the knock/jetlag (depending on who you believed with regards to why Javier missed the match) that kept Mascherano out of the match was a blessing in disguise? Last year the notorious 0-0 draws cost us the title – did playing two defensive [...]
10 Points from Liverpool vs Villa
I don’t have time for a full blown rant today so some points from last night: 1. Lucas and Mascherano together in the middle is not going to work no matter how long we persevere with it. Lucas is too lightweight to play in any kind of enforcer type role. Is there any need for [...]
Balancing act
What a difference a few days make…a storming win against a Stoke side that we failed to beat last year has reversed the doom and gloom surrounding the club following the defeat to Spurs on Saturday. So what were the main differences between Sunday and Wednesday? The biggest difference for me was dropping Ryan Babel [...]
Doomed, we’re all doomed!
You’d be forgiven for thinking that this years Prem, FA Cup, League Cup, Champions League and Johnstones Paints Trophy were all resolved after this weekends series of fixtures. Liverpools title chances for this year are over already apparently – the loss of Xabi Alonso has reduced us to also-rans, we’ll be lucky if we scrape [...]
