IT’S A WIN and 3 POINTS!! finally! that means we are level with blackburn and fulham stuck on 9 points, only the goal differences r making the difference.. so it’s suddenly looking not that bad anymore.
But what i felt from the start of the game was that the team got it’s spirit, it’s heart, it’s courage back and that is as equally important as the 3 points. It’s just brill seeing Liverpool back to usual. only we could’ve used our chances more, but yeah robinson was just awesome.. The question is though what has changed? (maybe it was gerry singing YNWA before kickoff ;-))
Hicks and Gillett are out! YAY! Poulsen was not slowing the game down! All the players were back to their normal form or even the better! Everyone was fighting and passing and moving and torres got finally some service up front. Gerrard was playing his socks off and was the link between torres and the others. But my MOTM is our greek big Soto! he’s had some brill headers over the last games and it had to go in once! today it finally happened and almost again:-) the knot was untied and unfortunately we were a bit sloppy at the back for just a split second and blackburn- yes diouf- scored.. now over the last few games we had got frustrated and would have lost the game but today we kept fighting and then finally torres scored! :-)
Yes a 3rd goal would have been great but thanks to a good defending and a steady pressure we managed to get our second win this season! yay! :-) now we need to keep this spirit and fight us back up the table!
Now to the big question: Roy out or in? Yes today was brill but we shouldn’t forget the last few games.. what has he done differently? in my opinion roy has just rescued himself a chance to see what the next game will bring. it will be bolton away, so not too hard. If we play like today and use our chances more and win. he gets another chance for napoli and more importantly chelsea. I, personally, will decide after the chelsea game but that says my head, my heart says already Roy out…
So let’s hope our spirit is back for good!
You’ll Never Walk Alone
