Liverpool 1 Marseille 0: Unconvincing but does the job

1

Rafa finally learns how to pronounce ‘dilemma', some Marseille fans are morons and clearly, we have a goal-scoring crisis

CSD was spot-on when he predicted a narrow score-line for Wednesday's Matchday 5 encounter with French side, Olympique de Marseille. Nevertheless, this "scary" win qualifies the Reds to the last 16 of the UEFA Champions League tournament for the 5th successive year – a perfect record for Benitez.

Steven Gerrard's Clay Pigeon Ad and the Crisis of Contemporary Ontology

1
Let's consider the skeletal narrative implied by Adidas's new viral marketing video, designed to sell, I don't know, some shoes or whatever. One morning, Steven Gerrard and Xabi Alonso woke up, put on their matching Liverpool training gear, and drove to the skeet shooting store. After loading up the truck with equipment, they headed out [. Click to continue reading...

Weekly Picks - 11/21/2008

1

My picks have been a bit off recently, and that's putting a generous light on the situation. So, it seems obvious that the only way to avoid being generically wrong is to be specifically correct. Therefore, not only am I going to predict the scorelines for this week, I will even give you, my dear readers, a Nostradamus-esque view into specific moments from the coming weekend.

The injured England XI to face Germany

The walking wounded Fabio Capello is without With Theo Walcott the latest withdrawal from the England squad after dislocating his shoulder (Arsene Wenger probably popped it out before he left the Emirates), we look at what could have been FabCap's team against Germany tonight if they weren't all crocked.

Saint Stevie Of Me

I don't know if I have mentioned it before but my lover and I have a show on a local community radio station. We broadcast every other week and the show is two hours of music and chat.

It probably won't surprise you to know that lots of the chat is about football. We try to find out about local sporting events but also chat about the latest stories in the wider footballing world. Click to continue reading...

Liverpool 3 W.B.A 0: Awesome-ness restored

9

Robbie's brace, Arbeloa knows where the net is, Carra still gets away with fouls and Rafa almost slipped at the sideline again

It was business as usual for our men in Red, as they wrapped up this late-kickoff match with a 3-nil victory over newly-promoted, West Brom Albion.

Offside Rewind: Links Only A Mother Could Love.

Discussing Stevie G's "penalty". Strange yellow cards in Croatia and Brazil. David Beckham's MLS career could be over sooner than people thought. But even without His GoldenNuggets, MLS will still have goals. Champions League has goals too. Lots of them. The neverending war between the Premier League and the world wide web wages onward.

Liverpool Rescue Draw Against Atletico Madrid After Phantom Penalty

1
When Steven Gerrard collided with Atletico Madrid's Mariano Pernia in the third minute of injury time at Anfield Tuesday night, was Swedish referee Martin Hansen's decision to award a penalty influenced by the deafening cry from The Kop? Or was it to compensate for the incident that Hansen failed to call in the first half [. Click to continue reading...

UCL Matchday 4: Liverpool 1 Atletico Madrid 1

0

It was a boring match until the last 4 minutes of stoppage time, which saw a questionable penalty given to Liverpool (Fine by me, we'll take the draw) and 4 yellow cards.

If we hadn't scored, I would probably started off by saying Liverpool was shite. Nando's former club outplayed us, and though we had most of the possessions in the 2nd half, we were not able to find the net.

Liverpool’s Magic Triangle: Kuyt, Keane And Gerrard

After watching English football on television for more than 30 years, I've watched countless boring tactical games like yesterday's two nil win by Bolton against Manchester City. But I've also seen many incredible games and wonderful individual efforts that still make me jump out of my seat. This season, the club that is impressing me the [. Click to continue reading...

Darren Farley has become way famous doing uncanny impressions of current and former Liverpool stars; namely Stevie G, Jamie Carragher, Rafa, Michael Owen and Peter Crouch - thankfully he stays away from the accompanying robot dance. And demand is high, so he's back with more impressions, including those which made their way to Sky Sports. Click to continue reading...

Steven Gerrard: Liverpool can't keep pulling off last-gasp victories -- Daily Mirror Headline

1
Err, yes they can Stevie.

Show me a chunk of silverware you've won in the past five years that hasn't come from a mad-dash, hope against all hope effort coming in the second half? This is less a defensive predicament then a tactical stroke of genius (if you give Benitez the benefit of the doubt, which I don't) -- and where better to come back from two goals down then at Anfield?

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.

Is Gerrard v Lampard Really England’s Biggest Problem Right Now?

The result read England 3, Belarus 1, with Steven Gerrard on the score sheet, and yet like night following day, the pundits were still assessing Capello's success in dealing with on one of the most tired clichés in Modern Football – Gerrard v. Lampard. That the two cannot play together has been part of journo orthodoxy [. Click to continue reading...

Five Conclusions: Belarus 1-3 England

12 from 12 for Fabio's boys 1. Wayne Rooney is Samson in reverse. His England goal drought is well and truly over. Keep that head bald and keep the goals coming, Wazza. 2. Steven Gerrard's international career is not over. That talk was brought on by a distinct lack of football news this week, methinks. Click to continue reading...

Internationals

1

Gerrard's first competitive goal for England in 19 months came after a great display from Wayne Rooney. Rooney's really found his form. I'm getting a little bit worried about playing Man-Yoo next time. He later scored two for the squad, but it was Stevie G that fired off the cannon after only 11 minutes.

Gerrard is not International class

The most over rated player in world football After somehow scraping a 5-1 victory over the impressive Kazakhs, England now travel to Belarus for a tricky away tie.

Who is the right man for England’s right flank?

1
Aside from the Gerrard/Lampard debate, England's traditional selection problem has been who to play on the left-wing due to a dearth of decent candidates. The current conundrum is who to play on the right, but the reasons are quite opposite. Fabio Capello has a multitude of options for the right-side of midfield. Click to continue reading...
