Recent Run of Results..

Chelsea 4 Liverpool 4
Reina 0g 51 Alex Lampard 76, 89 - Aurelio 19 Alonso pen 28 Lucas 81 Kuyt 83



An incredible match of football, which has so many dramatic turns in 90 minutes. Liverpool needed 3 goals to get through and we had 2 in the first half. It was about to be mission impossible accomplished till Reina's mistake catalyzed the whole dramatic show.

Sadly, Liverpool was knocked out on aggregate 7-5. However, I do think that Liverpool did the best they could in the game and sometimes, football needs luck, in fact lots of them. They can leave with their heads high with their high determination, hard work and of course, they didn't leave without giving it a fight.

Well done lads!

Liverpool 4 Blackburn 0
Torres 5, 33 Agger 83, Ngog 90



Liverpool bounced back from the Champions League defeat and thrashed Blackburn 4-0 at home. Dominated the game while Torres scored a beauty on the 5th minute. One of the candidates of best goals of the season. Massive 3 points in the run towards the last few games of the season.

Liverpool 1 Chelsea 3
Torres 6 - Ivanovic 39, 62 Drogba 67



Liverpool was outclassed by the Blues in this game. Failed to defend from set pieces was suicidal, not once but twice by defender Ivanovic. Chelsea manager Hiddink had a game plan against the home side and it worked for them perfectly. Liverpool had to score 3 goals in the second leg at the Bridge to go through.

Fulham 0 Liverpool 1
Benayoun 92



Dramatic stoppage time winner by Yossi Benayoun send the Reds crazy as Liverpool hit the woodwork 4 times in that match. It was so crucial to our run towards the championship till Rafa had some celebrations actions after the game.

Quick Update!

Liverpool 2 Sunderland 0
Ngog 51, Benayoun 65

A midweek game which saw us bouncing back from a defeat. A good goal by David Ngog and a simple tap in by on form midfielder, Benayoun. 3 points which matters and we shall see how we gotta play at Old Trafford.

Middlesbrough 2 Liverpool 0
Alonso (og) 31, Tuncay 63



One of the poorest performances of the season which caused us a big blow to our title race. Couldn't understand what happened, but we have to look forward, hopefully, Manchester United would be able to drop points.

Torres Completes Comeback!

Portsmouth 2 Liverpool 3
Nugent 61, Hreidarsson 77 - Aurelio 69, Kuyt 84, Torres 90



Once again, Rafa Benitez has proved that he can be one of the boldest manager in the league, seeing his line-up against Portsmouth last night. With 6 defenders in the line-up, putting young French Ngog as the lone striker upfront, I really was wondering how on earth can he win the game with this first 11.

Surprisingly, we started pretty well with passing and plenty share of possession. However, Ryan Babel and David Ngog doesn't seemed to be able to penetrate into the Tony Adams' defence and hence, we failed to score in the opening 45 minutes.

Rafa was spot on in his substitutions, bringing in Dirk Kuyt for the ineffective Ngog. You could see his inexperience in the game. Kuyt was fresh and the spark of our comeback in the game.



Fabio Aurelio's indirect freekick was very well-executed which got us the equalising goal. A left footed drive after David James handled the ball from a Peter Crouch back pass causing the indirect freekick. We made a mistake and conceded the lead to the home side.

Alonso came in, so was Torres. These players came in and made an impact in the game. Portsmouth was tiring while the likes of Benayoun, Kuyt, Mascherano were all fighting for every ball on the pitch. Kuyt scored late on with an almost impossible shot passed David James. I simply do not know how he managed to squeeze the ball in.



In the 90th minute, who else? Fernando Torres headed in the winner which gave us the massive 3 points. With time ticking off, good play by Benayoun and Mascherano on the left, Torres finished it off with his 1st chance at goal. A comeback again!

Credit to the team, they kept believing and fought throughout. They shown character and you could see that every game is so important for this long title race. I do not care how Rafa changes, or who he plays, as long as we have the 3 points, the rest we can talk later.

Top of Group!

PSV 1 Liverpool 3
Lazovic 37 - Babel 45, Riera 69, Ngog 78



It was not telecast live over here in Singapore, therefore I could only watch the highlights over the internet. Good goals by Babel, Riera and Ngog were enough for us to secure the top spot and this would mean that second leg of the next knock out round will be at Anfield. This is very important especially in a 2-legged knockout phase.

It's nice to see us winning even we did not field the best team, able to rest some key players and this is a big squad should be all about. Squad depth is essential especially for a long seasons with so many matches to play for.

Let's look forward who we draw next. :)
