Liverpool 2-0 Everton

0
Reina
Arbeloa Skrtel Carragher Dossena
Kuyt Alonso Gerrard Riera
Torres Keane

Goals:
Torres 59' 63'

Just as promised: hands up, I was wrong. Liverpool deployed the 4-4-2, with Alonso for Mascherano because of injury the only deviation from my guess at a squad, and Liverpool leave Goodison two-nil winners thanks to the genius of Fernando Torres. Click to continue reading...

Liverpool 0-0 Stoke City

1
Reina
Arbeloa Skrtel Carragher Dossena
Kuyt Gerrard Alonso Riera
Torres Keane

It was exactly what was feared. When the best you can say was at least Liverpool didn't lose, against a team many tip for relegation, it's not a good day at the office.

It's bad, bad déjà vu reminiscent of the draw against Birmingham early last season, except the strike force was Torres and Keane instead of Kuyt and Voronin. Click to continue reading...

Goals:
Cana 23'
Gerrard 26' 32' (pen)

Welcome back, Steven Gerrard.

The first half was eminently watchable, end-to-end stuff. With the return of Gerrard and Torres, Liverpool went back to the 4-2-3-1, while Marseille weren't content to allow Liverpool the leeway they did in France last season. Click to continue reading...

Babel’s Bobble

1

As a Manchester United fan there is nothing much worse than losing to Liverpool. Even St£vie G and Carragher's sulky countenances were lifted to unfamiliar grins for half an hour after the game (before, of course, their houses were burgled again for the fourth time that day). Rafa gave a wide-eyed and incredulous interviews stating that Liverpool were now serious title contenders, all the while trying to convince himself of the fact at the same time.

Reina

Benayoun Alonso Mascherano Riera
Kuyt Keane

Goals:
Tevez 3'
Brown (og) 26'
Babel 77'

Finally. And what a way to do it.

United made a dream start, with early pressure leading to a Tevez goal within three minutes when Berbatov beat two men to the byline and was able to cut back to Tevez (Mascherano failed to follow him into the box). Click to continue reading...

Liverpool FC Name Steven Gerrard And Fernando Torres In Squad To Face Man Utd

Liverpool FC have named both Fernando Torres and Steven Gerrard in their squad to face Manchester United at Anfield tomorrow.

The duo have been forced out in recent weeks with hamstring and groin problems respectively.

Boss Rafa Benitez is hopeful both may feature at some stage. Click to continue reading...

Who the F*CK are Man UTD?

Apologies for the lack of posting but I came down with a case of bird flu and when you've got the bird flu you have to adhere to a strict diet of no cigarettes or alcohol which means no blog posts. But I'm back and slightly intoxicated and here to tell you about this little match we have coming up on Saturday.

Brave but perhaps a little naive of Carragher

2
Never mind merely documenting certain events or quoting statements made by the parties involved. Carragher has chosen to have a right go at the owners of LFC in his autobiography. He calls them ruthless and accuses them of breaking promises and profiteering (link).

Carragher has a huge profile, but I doubt it's big enough to take on Hicks & Gillett. Click to continue reading...

Liverpool star considers future at the club

0
Liverpool defender Sami Hyypia has today admitted he will consider his future after been left out Rafa Benitez' plans for the Champions League. The Finland international has been omitted from the club's 25-man panel for the Champions League group stages, weeks after the club rejected an offer from Stoke City for the player.

Jaime Carragher is still a legend

5
Well, the window's over, and I've little desire to write about how Manchester City is going to take over the world and has signed Pele, Garrincha, Cruyff and Beckenbauer or how Hicks and Gillett are furiously rubbing two pennies together in the hopes they'll multiply.

But I do want to make sure everyone's aware Carragher has an autobiography coming out (ghost-written by the excellent Brian Reade), and parts are being serialed in the Daily Mirror. Click to continue reading...

Michael Kightly for Wolverhamton Wanderers (vs Nottingham Forest), 30th August 2008

1
They play in different leagues, so perhaps the comparison isn't valid, but two different results and contrasting styles of play caught my eye this weekend:

Wolverhampton Wanderers stormed to the top of the Championship table with an utterly convincing 5-1 defeat of Nottingham Forest at Molineux on Saturday. Click to continue reading...

Reina
Arbeloa Skrtel Carragher Dossena
Alonso
Kuyt Mascherano Lucas Keane
Torres

I am not used to Liverpool setting up shop to come away with a point on the road, and I'm not happy about it. Without Gerrard and with Torres going off after 26 minutes thanks to an injury, Liverpool were without invention and rarely looking like getting a goal. Click to continue reading...

Kuyt Leads Liverpool to 1-0 Win

0
Dirk Kuyt was the reason Liverpool won 1-0 against Standard Liege tonight. Liverpool have many good players. Alonso, Gerrard, Torres, Carragher and Reina are top class players any team would love to have. With players like this fans should expect to destroy hard working teams like Standard Liege. At Liverpool though, shocking players like Dirk Kuyt mean that instead of winning 4-0, Liverpool scrape to 1-0. Click to continue reading...

These games are not doing my heart any good. Four games into the season, and the earliest goal Liverpool's scored has come in the 83rd minute. And Kuyt striking the winner after suffering a ton of stick makes it even sweeter. Click to continue reading...

Gameweek 2 – Disruption

Greetings faithful following, and welcome to a somewhat late review of this past Bank Holiday weekend's exciting action. Many factors (ok, one factor: beer) have delayed the writing of this wrap-up, but suffice to say that the editorial whip has been cracked and it will not be happening again.

Unlucky Boro robbed at the death by Gerrard

1
Middlesbrough travel home from Liverpool feeling robbed as they went from leading the game 1-0 with 5 minutes remaining to losing the game 2-1 after 95 minutes. A great strike from Mido put Boro ahead only to see late goals from Carragher and Gerrard rip the points away from the visitors. Click to continue reading...

Jamie Carragher's defeatism strikes again

1
The season is only one week old but Jamie Carragher is already showing signs of the loser mentality that plagued Anfield last season.

Carra was up and down like a yo-yo last season when it came to his public comments about the club One week he'd be high as a kite proclaiming how Liverpool's players were the greatest in the world. Click to continue reading...

Liverpool vs Middlesbrough: Rafa seeking to maintain a good start

Liverpool vs Middlesbrough is a tricky one for Rafa, particularly in the white hot pressure of the Premier League. The expectations on Liverpool are such that Rafa Benitez is one bad result from a wave of pressure, particularly at the start of the season. Click to continue reading...

Let's hope it can't go anywhere but up.

I understand it's the first competitive game of the season. I understand Gerrard was out, that it was Keane and Dossena's first game, that Plessis is still a youngster, and that Agger is like a new signing. Click to continue reading...

The Unveiling

It's official! While I think this is a great signing, others would tend to disagree. steven. would be one of those. You can read all about his warped opinion here.

I've heard the nay sayers: he's too old, he's overvalued, Owen was less and more the player. Anyone who doesn't trust the judgment of the almighty Rafa is really just sort of a terrorist.

Anfield to Add Luck of the Irish

3

Robbie Keane will be undergoing his medical in Liverpool today and is set to sign a five-year contract worth £80,000 per week. On behalf of all Yanks who don't know beans about football, I'd like to offer a big Flavor Flav, "YEAHHHHHHHHHHH BOYEEEEEEEEE!"

This is the signing I've been most excited about when I first heard the rumor that Keane wanted to leave Spurs for his boyhood heroes, Liverpool.

Reds Held By Krakow As Dossena Debuts

1
Andrea Dossena yesterday made his long-awaited debut for Liverpool, who settled for a 1-1 draw in their friendly against Wisla Krakow.

Dossena arrived from Udinese earlier this month but had not yet featured due to some minor clearance problems. But the Italian defender finally took his bow in Krakow last night, lasting 60 minutes before being replaced by Argentine youngster Emiliano Insua. Click to continue reading...

Wenger's dilemma:Who should partner Adebayor against Liverpool?

6
By 1970's Gooner Does a football coach select his starting eleven according to who's on form? Or according to the system that is the most appropriate for the particular game coming up? It's usually a combination of both of course. And if Robin Van Persie was available tonight we would not have been pondering the question posed in the title or trying to decide the formation.
