We were beaten 2-1 at the White Hart Lane on the first game of the season. That's their home ground. This Sunday it would be Anfield. This time, Liverpool is in the resurgent mood. Liverpool is on the way of recovery. A draw is not accepted but only a win can diminished all the negative sentiments and returned Liverpool to where it is supposed to be. The BIG FOUR spot.Do you noticed above photo?

The fullback last night were identical to the ones used against Villa. But last night's performance was still very much clouded with 2009 miseries. It was awful. Insua was bullied and always late in tackles. That's the reason for his yellow card.I guess Reading just play with their hearts out simply because they have nothing to lose. They don't have a manager. The team's standing is deep below.

Relieved the 2006 FA Cup Triumph tonight. Reading vs Liverpool at 1am on your Malaysian satellite tv.Rafa said that Liverpool will treat FA Cup more seriously. Well, no surprise there since it is their only face-savings tournament. It's an obvious choice since we're already lost the Champions Cup and League Cup and forget about The EPL... but correct me if I'm wrong, can't we include the Europa

Happy New Year 2010 to all of you. I just returned from Kuching. My hometown. It was a glory holiday with the kids and we had a memorable time with the whole clan. And the trip was even more fun without having to open a computer (I deliberately left it at home) and managed to watch two cheerful Christmas games.In terms of my passion towards Liverpool, I have one resolution. That is to embark on

I have to do this again. oo many Rafa-haters that refused to introduce themselves made this blog some sort like a `Rafa-haters blog' to which I must clarify, it is not!And since the Pompey game, there's another one crop up playing with me about the supposedly my ego-statement on the `Liverpool-must-beat-Pompey'.

You know Gary Lineker? yeah... the poster boy of the 1980's era. He wrote in the Daily Sport:``...Alberto Aquilani cost more than Defoe - but you wouldn't have realised it from his appearances this season. At a reported £20m, he's got to be the worst buy. He was meant to replace Alonso but spent the first three months injured and hasn't been pushed into the team by Rafa Benitez now that he is fit

Based on some of the reaction posted below by people-who-refused-to-identify-themselves, Rafa to them, must leave Liverpool Football Club. Not later but now. Wow... This song cropped up every time the team lost. But they were almost non-existence when Liverpool beat Wigan last Thursday. So where is the balance here?Another question : To let go Rafa and to acquire who? And at what price do the

Portsmouth is number one at the bottom. Yet, those ESPN pundits thought that they can steal a point in the match against Liverpool. That really annoyed me. Such is the degradation in the expectation and prestige of Liverpool that no one think we can win matches outright or easily nowadays. It seems that even the lower league is expected to beat Liverpool and Liverpool is for some, a team that is

``Between the two of us, I would be the most likeliest to stay longer here...'' said Gerrard to Rafa.It was only Liverpool's fourth win in 16 matches and just their second at Anfield since September 26 but it will do much for the team's shaky confidence.David Ngog scored the first goal. That confirmed his status as a yo-yo or 2nd grade striker because he scored when nobody cares and failed to do

This game is something that I will not criticised Rafa. He had a good tactic, correct players and regardless of what the Rafa-Haters are saying now, I categorised last night's defeat as down to damn hard luck. Gallas was clearly obstructed Gerrard but was ignored by the ref. Torres had a good chance but that was his first shot since a few months out because of injury. Can't blame Johnson for

Suffice to say, I dread to predict anything about this crunch match between Liverpool against Arsenal (scheduled 11.55pm Malaysian time). Both had a miserable week, albeit Arsenal merely suffered a lost where else Liverpool another pile of embarrassment before proceeding to the Europa Cup with that lousy lost against Fiorentina.According to the latest news reports, both of our main players :

I just received (our Sports Desk, actually...) a good news from Laos, that our national football team beat the mighty Thailand 2-1 the SEA Games.Don't know the detail as yet, the scorer or how many yellow/red cards. But it's something to cherish when Liverpool is not performing its best. heheheMALAYSIA BOLEH!*(Kuyt & Reira celebrate the 2nd goal in the demolition of Everton not too distant ago...

COINCIDENCELY, this couple of weeks I have been listening to a lot of Metallica songs. This has got to do with the fact that I have managed to acquire their last year's album, Death Magnetic on a free! You guys should listen to the instrumental Suicide Redemption. It's really upbeat, contrary to the morbid title. And along the way, do listen to the Metallica's MISERY. And that is how I feel now

Introducing Ms Michela Quattrociocche, Alberto Aquilani's girlfriend. Michela won't be on the pitch tonight though, perhaps at the directors box watching Aquilani starts the match (at last!)This is a bit odd. A final game of sort for Liverpool in the running for the last 16 Quarter Finalist to the Champion Cup which has ended about 2 weeks ago. Tonight (very very early morning tomorrow Malaysian

I watch the game from the rooftop of a new hotel by the lake side in Taiping last night. While the others were busy celebrating the host's birthday, I focused on the 40-inch flat TV, before I became the butt of the joke because at the other end, the TV showed Man.U scored 4 goals...You want to play the blame game? Blame it on Rafa for playing David Ngog. Helpless and not fit to play for Liverpool

Rafa in his espionage language, indicated that Torres may well be paired at last with Gerrard in the match against Blackburn Rovers tomorrow. Rafa has his own reason as to not admitted to anything openly, perhaps for tactical reasons. But why do we need to worry if indeed Torres is playing because when he is that good, not even Vidic or Rio could stopped him. And we're talking about the defenders

This split seconds photo was taken from a camera that is fix at the back of the net, via a remote control. The magnificent photo shows how Reina made that stupendous and outrageous double-save from Cahill's header, then a point-blank shot by that Afro-hair Belgium guy. If you guys agree that Liverpool played like a crap, one thing for sure that many of us would agree otherwise is that Reina had

After Man.U... Everton is a must win match for our deputy captain...It was a bit shocking but most of the pundits and fans alike would have to agree with Carragher assessment. The team still playing below par, except that a few good men plays with vigour, namely Mascherano, Kuyt and Pepe Reina.

Despite the fact that we missed out of the Champion Cup, we actually won the game against Debrecen with a solitary goal by David Ngog. Put aside all the mumbles and frustration, I suggest we should now look forward for the future, starting with the match against our so-called neighbour, Everton. The Blues are almost in the lousy shape with Liverpool vis-a-vis result and performances.However, we

It has been one hell of a time for any Liverpool supporters around the world. Some prefer to play the blame game with Rafa the obvious target. I would prefer to walk forward. We have to accept that Liverpool has not been a true Liverpool team since the start of the season... well it has been 3 months of agony which has accumulated of our demised in the challenge for the Champion Cup, League Cup

The melody was out, the show had to stop and terrible it may sound, we are now forced to play in the 2nd grade tournament, now known as Europa Cup.
