Liverpool 3 Wigan 2

28

What have we learnt...

1. I do have a crystal ball =X
2. Daniel Agger would make a good winger or midfielder.
3. Our opponents should be careful the next time they score against us first.
4. Once again, we have won the hard way, but we have what it takes to be serious title contender.

A Flying Winger Is Still A Necessity For Liverpool

0
Former Tottenham's crafty forward Robbie Keane look to set be Liverpool's most significant transfers this summer, but in my opinion it is a another flying winger that would benefit the team most.

With youngster Ryan Babel already making an impressively vibrant impact last season on the left-hand side of midfield, I believe a similar type of player on the right-hand side would be extremely helpful to the side's stuttering attacking play. Click to continue reading...

Too Early To Give Up On Pennant

1
There have been many critics of Jermaine Pennat – a good portion of them Liverpool fans – yet I have always failed to understand the reason for all the negativity. I appreciate that he's probably not good enough, or at least not consistent enough, to be playing each week for a team with title ambitions but, as a squad player, he isn't a bad option.

Welcome to Liverpool, Robbie.

Robbie Keane has had five games to work himself into the Liverpool squad, but it only took thieves one night to make him a part of the Anfield family.

Benitez’s Surprise Choice

Aside from the Barry saga, this was the summer in which the core of Liverpool's successful reserve side got an opportunity to prove their worth at a higher level. Daniel Pacheco, Damien Plessis, Jay Spearing, Kristian Nemeth, Stephen Darby and Emiliano Insua all got to play in the club's pre-season friendlies with each one hinting that, should the need arise, they were more than capable of doing a job.

Pennant's Failure to Impress

0
It is always the big men who take the credit. Much of the focus after last Tuesday's win over Inter Milan was how the introduction of Peter Crouch changed the complexion of the game, with his height providing an additional dimension to Liverpool's play.

Which, in all honesty, it did especially as the Inter defenders didn't know how to react. Click to continue reading...

Liverpool nearly upset? What a joke.

And I'm not talking about our performance. I'm referring to the onslaught of garbage the press is force feeding the general public, most who didn't even see the match and won't look at the facts. The truth is this was a no contest. The truth is Havant scored on a set-piece, which any club can do against any other club no matter the differential in talent. Click to continue reading...

13
- At the start of yesterday's match with Arsenal it looked as if we were about to emerge from our current injury crisis with both Xabi and Torres starting and Arbeloa on the bench. It was all for naught though as El Nino was subbed at the half and Xabi re-aggravating his foot injury later in the match. To make matters even worse, Javier Mascherano left Anfield in a medical boot. Click to continue reading...

Turns out Jermaine Pennant has been playing injured for the last two months

4
Well, this makes sense and sort of makes me feel bad for the kid, but honestly, he should have probably not been playing hurt and taken care of this right away. I'm not a team physician so I'll just assume they did what they felt was best for him. Pennant will have surgery this weekend for a stress factor of his right tibia. He is expected to be out at least ten weeks. Click to continue reading...

Today's Banter: Ladies lose derby, Pennant excluded from England again, Babel wants striker role, & more

1
- Like the saying goes, 'It's only gonna get a whole lot worse before it's gonna get any better.' Those words seem to be a fair representation of what our beloved club is going through at the moment. Yesterday, just to add a glacier to the well put-out fire, the Ladies lost 2-1 to Everton in league play. Despite taking a 1-0 lead, our girls couldn't hold on as two strikes in two minutes in the second half were enough to lead the lady Toffees to the victory. Click to continue reading...

Today's Banter: Birmingham fears Pennant, Carra calls an end to penalties, Anderson may start, & more

- Birmingham boss Steve Bruce has singled out Jermaine Pennant as the player his side is worried most about come Saturday. Pennant though, who played two seasons for the Blues, isn't sure he'll even get to play after being sent off in the Porto match. I'm not sure he'll start, but would be a bit surprised if he didn't get to play at all. Rafa may save him for our Carling Cup match at Reading next week. Click to continue reading...

Other than the obvious that Big Sam needs to worry about his own job and his own side, the Magpies manager appears to be showing signs of amnesia. Click to continue reading...

Liverpool vs Porto: What will Rafa do?

3
This should be pretty easy considering who Rafa didn't start on Saturday at Pompey. The more I think about it, the more shocked I am that he started what is usually our European front in Voronin and Crouch. I understand that Torres and Kuyt probably needed the rest, but it sort of undermines the goal of the league. Anyhow, that's Rafa the Gaffa for ya. Click to continue reading...
