watching the game `live' now, 1st 45 just ended. gotta say, liverpool looked pretty ordinary.
- sigh -
play long ball all the way
wtf.
buy robbie keane to play long ball?
it was an awful performance by pool.....
i think not a single shot on target for liverpool in the 1st half.
slightly better 2nd half....from the reds that is.
torres scores!!!!!!!
again, from nothing.
keane was below par... Torres... well, worth every penny...
bad display by the team
cannot rely on torres to create something out of shit for every game
Lol we paid 20 million for keane to block torres' shot.
I think keane and torres should train more together before they start playing league games. imo the understanding between the two were non existant .
Anyway, i'll take the 3 points earned today and it was a totally class strike from torres. One chance is all he needs :)

if the result was a draw, keane sure `kena butter' for sure. the disbelief on torres's face when the sitter presented to him was scuffed by one of his very own.
Keane is still the new kid of the block.
So, he have to get used to being number 2.
As for the first half, the midfield was in a mess.
The introduction of Alonso strengthen the midfield with better passing.
This is disappointing as it shows that Liverpool do not have a strong second squad if the key players are injured.
So, they will be playing badly till the rest of the players come back from Olympics.
Plessis looks like the clown we just sold to Juventus recently
Arbeloa is a waste of space in the first 11. Finnan is way more productive down the right, just when i was commenting that he is useless, even the commentator said that Arbeloa is not making any effort to give attacking options for Liverpool, he was just "standing there"
why every season Liverpool have a resident clown / useless shithead.
no wonder cannot win EPL
faster sell alonso to arsenal leh while u go n buy barry.

no, keane is the new kid `on the block'. look at how he blocked torres's effort yesterday ;-)

Damn,my Man U friend sms me just to tell me Keane blocked Torres shot.
He even said Keane was like trying to outshine Torres.
So obvious Torres and Keane needs more understanding .
Ok la ..... Sunderland also cannot break our defense at home la .
We looked abit jaded after against Standard Liege .
Looking at the line-up , very obvious Rafa keep his ammunition for the UCL tie @ Anfield .
Dunno why don't Rafa play a funny formation , testing his new team ?
Funny to see Kuyt at the right ....
And saw Dossena veru frequent on the left .
And that's why we see that French young man playing 28 Damien Plessis with Aonso .
Gerrard on a more offensive role , protected by 2 anchormen .
where got 2 anchorman? midfield = benayoun gerrard plessis kuyt
plessis come out for alonso
dossena is an attacking left back.
kuyt looks terrible at the right, as usual... he lost all his striking instinct thanks to rafa.
Babel coming back from Beijing ..... Mascherano still in Olympic .
Argentina beaten Holland 2-1 aggregate by extra time .
Playing Plessis and Alonso ...... and the in-effective Yossi not good .
Gerrard and Yossi at very good attackingfrom the centre .
We got no wings ....
Anyway , no point crossing the ball into the box if we dun have any Crouch .
I missed Crouch's presence .
rafa shld have been done tinkering during the pre-season. he must be pretty sure what he wants to do from the word `go'.
imagine if he had been more decisive last season, the number of draws liverpool got is what wrecked its season.
liverpool has to be single-minded and play to win at every game, even if that means torres play more than 50games this season.
take the pedal off, the folks at chelsea and man u is not gonna reciprocate in kind.

it was evident yesterday. late in the game, when he was in the 6 yard box, he had an opening to shoot at goal and guess what; he hesitated and was looking to pass instead. he lost his striker instinct or confidence since moving to wing.
cross? what cross?
liverpool was playing like wimbledon
Plessis never play with alonso
Alonso replaced Plessis whom i think is another potential sissoko
