ashley is too strong on the left side.
game over la for us ..... we don't looked like scoring any .
Anyway , the way we played , we dun deserve to win .
i dun blame my players , Chelsea defense will very very well marshalled by Terry , very discipline .
since when we got one goal up when Insua and Lucas played ?
i'll be very surprised if we got our equaliser , then i can say Chelsea 2 points lost .
Ah Ben looks not worry leh. Maybe he got plan to overturn the deficient?
anyway win or lose .....the 2 americans also not interested , it's ok .
Me also ok .....
1-0 , 2-0 .....same la , Liverpool still 0 points . Chelsea earned 3 points .
It's the way we played to earn this defeat .
Torres just couldn't get into the rhythm .... everytime Cole played , we'll get it from Cole , everytime Drogba played , we'll get it from him too ....
Today , Drogba just too good , too tough for Carra and Johnson to handle .
so liverpool title aspirations is over by october?
Carra must give way to the Kergialkos that fella .... let him partner Skrtel .
And we see how . Anyway is a lost , let them try .
hoho nv regret staying up late for this match! worthy!
not a match to remember.
whenever trailing a goal, liverpool is the only team i hardly see having any urgency to win. u dont see the manager throw in offensive player in replace of an defender, nor do you see players pouring forward with shots after shots.
like what my girlfriend said, with 3 minutes of stoppage time, 1 goal lead is never secure enough against man utd or chelsea. but with liverpool, they can have a third half and 20 corners, yet they cant get anywhere close to the goal.
another observation. when lucas is playing badly, mash is taken off. but when mash is playing badly, lucas is taken off. just when i tot lucas was not performing too badly as compared to how mash surrender the possession for the first goal, benitez took out mash instead.
9 points is still not impossible to recover if the reds have the same belief like how man utd had last season when they were on a streak. to begin with, rafa can start with a hairdryer...
Until March then we'll see more clearly those title challenge . October no la , for Mu , by Xmas they will know whether they stands a chance .
But base on what i saw , Liverpool clearly not in the contention , i won't do it for the 2 Americans surely . I will only do it for the fans .
I just want Liverpool to fail and the 2 Americans can fuck off from UK .
*doot*

Rafa Benitez urged his players to remain calm in their quest for glory after they fell to a third league defeat of the season against frontrunners Chelsea.
The Reds are now six points off top spot after goals from Nicolas Anelka and Florent Malouda settled a tight encounter at Stamford Bridge.
Asked by journalists where the 2-0 defeat left his championship hopes, Benitez said: "Our target has to be the next game. They asked me in some interviews about three defeats this year, but it's important to keep calm, keep working hard to improve.
"We have to focus on the next game, get three points and see what happens.
"This year the top sides will lose points against other teams, so we just have to try to win every week.
"We will try to win against Sunderland and see. It's a long race and we have to think about the next game, that's it."
Asked if he had to convince his players to keep calm, Benitez quipped: "It's more difficult to convince the press of this than my players!"
Though disappointed with the scoreline, Benitez took heart from the performance of his side in a difficult arena.
"The performance wasn't bad against a good team. We worked hard and had some good play," he said.
"I was really pleased for 90 per cent of the game but you have to do almost everything perfectly to win here.
"Defensively we were good enough. We defended much better. They didn't have many chances, which means we were defending better, and we didn't have many chances, which means they are a good team.
"When you make a mistake against a good team, you pay for it. We lost the ball and they scored.
"The game was open after the goal. We had some chances but you have to take your chances if you want to change the situation.
"I cannot blame any one of the players because they were working really hard. You have to be pleased with the team effort and disappointed with the result."
Quizzed on whether his side should have created more chances, Benitez responded: "We played against Chelsea. Do you expect any team to play here and have 20 attempts? I don't think so.
"We had some chances but we couldn't score because their defenders are good defenders."
Meanwhile, Chelsea boss Carlo Ancelotti dismissed a question about any damage done to Liverpool's title hopes.
"I think the end of the championship is a long way off and Liverpool have the quality to have a very good season," he said."

so that's the problem. torres. he can be the strong link and also the weak link when he off day.
i think chelsea might jus win the epl this season..based on evidence of inherent weaknesses in pool, man u and arsenal. man city and spurs nt there yet.
it's always sad to see that the 2 american clowns are still bickering over money, seriously, they shud just go...no $$, still want to manage a club like LFC, what's more, they still made the holding company to be steeped in debts..no new stadium in the future too..
on a bright note, ryan babel has shown more improvement than in the past.. he has also helped to bring players into the game... RB cannot afford to screw up nw, LFC is in danger of losing the BPL and CL if this form continues..
U certainly dun win things with Lucas and Insua ......
Let's wait til Aquilani come back , and see how .
I think what Rafa future squad will be without Lucas .
I think Liverpool's midfield is Gerrard , Aquilani , Mascherano and Viera .
Forward in Torres and Kuyt .

i'm afraid we cannot wait for aquilani to win us matches..
I still think in certain matches , we need someone like Heskey and Crouch to create chaos inside the box .
Charlton Cole also not bad .
We just dun have someone that has got heights to do that now .
Like last night , many crosses was cut off by Terry . We just dun have any receipients .
i tink e hole left by Alonso is just too big to fill..
we were almost a complete team .... just almost there .
Crouch , Alonso .....
Then for no reason , Crouch were sold , heskey were sold .......
Rafa keeping faith with Lucas , which is a high risk faith , a risk of losing .
i think Raf's plan is to move Gerrard back to the position he do best , from the central midfield role .
And move Aquilani into the position Gerrard usually covered just behind the strikers .
