LIVERPOOL UPDATE: MERSEYSIDE AFTERMATH
Whew, what a match. Don't worry, part three of the whole J1 memoirs will be up soon. I just gotta record me thoughts on one of the best matches I've ever seen! (tm)
Steven Gerrard is an idiot. I mean, seriously. You're on a card, you don't hack down Kevin Kilbane right under the referee's nose just three seconds later! You should know better, you bloody idiot. Red card was deserved, and all the blueshite were ecstatic. They thought they were finally going to discover some meaning in their bitter blue lives for once.
They thought wrong, cos cometh the hour, cometh the ALONSO. Xabby's been having a bad season (by his excellent standards), but last night he was unbelievable. He was so good, Liverpool didn't even miss STEVEN FRIGGIN' GERRARD one bit!
One-man team? What one-man team? Us? Nah, we're Liverpool. We're too good to be a one-man team.
Alonso was playing football to make Shanks himself sit up in his celestial chair and take notice. Every single touch of his turned to gold. Those poor blueshite never got a chance.
In fact, every single man (bar the captain) stood up to be counted today. Sissoko was his usual wrecking ball. Sami again bossed the air better than King Kong on the Empire State roof, Luis Garcia had a 'Jekyll' game, Crouch worked well, and Harry managed to get on the score sheet with a breathtaking strike. Some strikes just make you want to stand up and applaud, and the ponytailed Aussia provided us with one.
Oh, Carra. You know Carra. He's a living legend. When Carra plays, you're guaranteed a lesson in defensive masterclass. Same old, same old today.
The Anfield crowd was fantastic as well. Every single word of 'Fields' could be heard, and Ring of Fire was great as well. It's something to hear 42 000 Scousers sing of glory 'round the Fields of Anfield Road in perfect, and I stress this, perfect harmony. They'd win any choir competition in the world.
Every game has its bad point, but the bad point today was not the sending off of our captain and a fool (same man), but Rafa's refusal to let Fowler get onto the pitch. Shame. Would have enjoyed watching 'god' wave five fingers to the Bitters, who were wondering how on Earth could they get dominated by a team with ten men.
Memorable moments: Phillip Neville scoring an own goal just before half-time! Van Der Meyde's red card, complete dominance and superb movement of the boys in Red.
Now for Chelsea. Let's twat the other bunch of Blue bastards and bring the FA Cup home.
