Arsenal V Liverpool Sun 21 Dec KO:1600 GMT

A Christmas Cracker is being pulled early as we finally meet the Gunners again in the first game since our memorable 4-2 home victory in the 2nd leg of last seasons Champions League 1/4 Final. The match means so much for both clubs as Liverpool hope to continue their best start to a EPL season whilst Arsenal really need the...

Should He Stay Or Should He Go Now ??

3 mins to go – drawing 2-2 with Hull, a chance to go 4 points clear at the top of the EPL – we need a goal, we need a goal. One sub to make – who’s on the bench, who could get us a goal? Lets see Lucas or Robbie, Lucas or Robbie – yes def – Lucas – on ya go son your the man for the job WHAT...

Liverpool V Hull – Sat 13th Dec KO:1500 GMT

Easy, easy, easy – another 3 points tomorrow without a doubt. Hull City ?? sure they only got promoted last year. How can they be expected to come to Anfield and leave with anything other than a good whipping? – Answer – because they are far from the cannon fodder that everybody thought they were going to be this...

What do you make of Babel’s loan request?

I must say I was a bit surprised to find out that Ryan Babel wanted to go out on loan because he was not getting enough first team opportunities at Liverpool. Fair and fine, he has not been playing a lot this season but that is largely due to the form of Riera who has been occupying the left hand side of midfield. It is only...

PSV 1 – Liverpool 3

What can I say? Great result by the Reds yet again in Europe. Going into the match I was not concerned a lot about this match but last night I decided to put my feet up on the couch and for once watch a Liverpool came without my heart racing. When I saw our starting eleven, I knew Rafa felt the same way as I did about the game and...

Blackburn 1 – Liverpool 3

Great result on Saturday! I have a friend who is a Blackburn supporter and I have always made fun of him and ask him, “Why do you support Blackburn of all teams?” So this weekend I had even more reason to make fun of him. In truth, it was a game we should have won on paper but I know trips to Ewood Park are tricky at...

What has happened to Riera ??

In my opionion things strted off very well after the signing of our new “winger”. He was provided plenty of width on the left hand side compared to Babel who was always cutting inside and never looked as if he was capable of beating a defender to get to the byline for a cross. Lately however we find Riera constantly...

Liverpool 0 – West Ham 0

Liverpool are top of the Premier League! I just had to say that to give me some joy as last nights result was rather disappointing but on the bright side we are now top of the league. It may only be by one point but we are top. Yet again I was left largely frustrated after the game as we failed to score for an entire 90 minutes and...

Liverpool v West Ham – Mon 1/12/08 KO 2000GMT

So thanks to Robin Van Persie Liverpool find themselves presented with the chance to claim outright first place in the EPL. We all know that by rights we should be there and you cannot hide the fact that we have dropped silly points against inferior sides this season which has prevented us from opening up a gap at the top....
