Bro Poolman,
Liverpool is like a old engine, need time to warm up.
When it is warmed up, it is all game over.
It have been ground hog day for the last three seasons.
Nothing is new when you have good players you dun fully utilised but used second rated players as diamond.
-
after that loss to spurs, i tink e Reds will have to worry about Rory Delap's throw-ins.
-
I predict Liverpool comming back with a vengeance and winning 5-0...

No lah, I want to drink my own piss. Never drink before sia. -
hmm judging from last week's match against spurs, i'm not so convince of a clear win.
It will be interesting to see thier mettle if stoke score 1st. it will be a good measure to test thier metallity
-
i believe liverpool will struggle to win but scrap thru with a 1-0 or 2-1. They are really the type of team that start to play with a little more sense of urgency once they go down 0-1

The only reliable one i saw that day was glen johnson, playing his heart out. -
AHAHA, SO FUNNY, MAN U TRAILING 1-0 AT HALF TIME TO BURNLEY!! AND MISS PENALTY SOMEMORE.
-
wAH SEH, did you see that goal by glenn johnson?
Acrobatic volley sia.
2-0 to Liverppool at half time.
-
Glen Johnson is a real bargain sia ......
My MOM on Sunday ...
Today score a spectacular ....
-
2 matches in and i like what i'm seeing in johnson. if only there is one more of such player on the left flank. basically, he is part of every chances liverpool have created, yet does his job to defend.
good game by the reds, and scoreline over at burnley has sweetened the result.
-
Yeah , yet again Johnson my MOM ...
His goal , and assist , and defensive qualities , not bad .
-
Today , except for Torres , who i thought was a bit off-colour , his eye injury add salt to the wounds ...
Ayala today nothing much to do ...
Insua still must polish a bit ... lucky not much mistake .
Lucas playing more defensive role ..... which is good .
Today Gerrard were roaming across the midfield , which is what i wanted .
KUYT were very active today as well .....
Do we missed Alonso ?
-
Boss, need to unsticky leh. Me not around forgot what to do?

Rafa Benitez claims Glen Johnson showed exactly why Liverpool signed him during the 4-0 victory over Stoke City on Wednesday.
The defender scored one and created countless other chances as further goals from Fernando Torres, Dirk Kuyt and David Ngog gave the Reds their first win of 2009-10.
Benitez said: "I think we were looking for a player with quality going forward. He created a lot of chances, was a threat and also scored a goal. Our idea was to improve and have more quality in the wide areas and he showed that tonight.
"The first goal was important and the second was a big difference because they had to go forward, we had more space. We were patient, played well on the ball and took our chances."
Benitez also reserved words of praise for Lucas, who put in another commanding performance in the centre of midfield.
The boss said: "Lucas is a player with experience but he's still young. I think you could see today, including the experts on TV, that he's a very good player. Hopefully now they won't see him as a target because he's a very good lad, a good professional and a very good player."
Nineteen-year-old defender Daniel Ayala made his full competitive debut against the Potters - and Benitez believes he will become a better player as a result of 90 minutes alongside Jamie Carragher.
"Ayala is young and it was more or less his first official game," he said. "He was a little bit nervous but in the end he was very good. He has to work, have more games and experience."
One sour note was the stitches needed by Torres following a clash of heads with Ryan Shawcross.
This after Jamie Carragher and Martin Skrtel required similar treatment at White Hart Lane on Sunday.
Benitez quipped: "We are at the top of the table now with 23 stitches. Carra, Torres and Skrtel. I haven't seen how many Torres has but I can guarantee you it's 10 or more."
