Shaky, unconvincing 3-2 victory.

And I'd have to say, entertaining. But the game was so nail-biting I forgot to enjoy it haha. Anyways, thank God I'll have a good raya tomorrow! WE will have a good raya. All my uncles are 'Pool fans too.

So.. I thought we'll gonna whip another 4-0 but, maybe it is a God's test to Liverpool fans who are about to get mocked by their cousins by their narrow win and stuff. Kyrgiakos being sidelined again. Aurelio didn't start and Agger is still not fully recovered. Carra looks especially shaky today and Skrtel makes more unnecessary tackles than ever. Insua is okay, but he should never try to shoot for goal. So many flaws in our defence, it makes us concede too easily. Especially on set pieces or counter attack. But Glen Johnson, for the win baby, for the WIN.



But it's back to my favourite 4-4-1-1 formation, only with Lucas on so, I'm not convinced. Although he'd been highly rated in the last two games, I'm still looking for that consistency. And this game? Just proved he still needs time to work on that Alonso role. But he didn't make that many silly mistakes as he used to though. Steven Gerrard looked rather lazy but even with his laziness, always managed to lead with style.

Fernando Torres' solo effort is sick as shite! He was unfortunate not to get his hat trick though. But he's among the top scorers now so, that's all I can ask for my pretty boy now ain't it? Harharhar. Last but not least, West Ham nasibbbbbb je goal. Penalty pun tak betul.

Haa that's all I had to say. If you're wondering why am I wasting my raya night here and why am I not playing mercun with cousins like every other kids, it is because I'm at home and my kampung is just 15 minutes away so we always go there at pagi raya. Lucky lucky me.

So tomorrow, big big derby match between City and United. I don't know who I'd want to lose more though. Either side, I'll be happy. Bye everyone, have a nice raya! :)

I think 4 is my favourite number

So peeps, another 4-0 in the bag. Back to the winning ways, thanks to Abang Yahudi kita, Yossi Benayoun. He's probably our most underrated player, eh?

So Rafa decided to change the formation. Stevie is going back to midfield and we have two left wingers on, so Riera probably was supposed to support Torres on the left. But anyhows, Benayoun outshined him. The formation doesn't work for Riera, I guess. Torres was kept quite by his markmen, although he made a few awesome runs. He was involved in one of the goal too.

Well, well. Look who performed too last night. Lucas Leiva. Despite a few silly mistakes, gotta admit he did a pretty good job in the midfield. Why can't you be as consistent, Lucas? Rafa awarded him as 'key player' last night. There's something fishy about those two..

Dirk Kuyt is everywhere as usual. I was bumped not to see Aurelio though. We could've scored more with his superb curling free kicks! But Insua was a pretty good lad too, so..



So the Mancs won big. I don't know who I want to see losing more, United or Spurs. But having United to lose two games too could've shut them up. Anyways, they proved that Spurs just can't simply break the top four. But Man City is a threat though. Gila belasah Arsenal. But they were lucky Arsenal's key player, Arshavin wasn't playing. Haih I so want the Man City to lose anytime soon. And so is Chelsea. Who was almost losing too. Takpe lah Arsenal, your chance to win the title is as much as us now, ain't it? :D

Breaks.


Well well, look who's here to give some reviews. I can't help to not to be quite about the United-Arsenal match. School today has shown the jerks that've always been in every Manchester United's fans. They bashed the Arsenal's fans for some narrow and unimpressive win! Face it, Arsenal's sloppy own goal and a Rooney's dive only the ones that helped United to win that match. They were lucky Fabregas wasn't available to play. If only Arsenal had a bit more luck, they would've OWNED Man United BIG TIME. Arsenal were the better side all the way. But of course, I couldn't do a thing to defend those poor Gunners' fans because I know the outcome of doing that. "Eleh Liverpool kalah dengan Villa n Tottenham nak cakap banyak pulakkk"

It's international break now and it's a good thing because then it will be in time until Fabio Aurelio is available to play again! Although Aquilani is still recovering :(

Just imagine when all the players are available to play.. 4-4-1-1 with Aurelio-Carra-Agger/Skrtel-Johnson on the defence, Riera/Benayoun-Masch-Aquilani-Kuyt in mids and Gerrard as the attacking midfield and Torres up front of him. Wahhhh gilaaa triumph la wei! It's only a matter of time people, watch out!

That's all fer now. I won't be able to post reviews on the upcoming international matches. I'll be off doing my SPM trials. Wish me luck :|

Bolton 2 - 3 Reds

Phew, my handsome captain to the rescue again! I should've never underestimated Bolton. Well to be exact, I should never overestimated us, for now at least. The first half passing terabur macam taik kambing jee. Salah siapa? Lucas jugak. After Torres scored, that's more like Liverpool we were waiting for. Well, almost.

The Hero and The Zero

Now, the new signing. I still need time to learn to pronounce his name.. and how to spell it. Anyways, he did okay for a debut. Of course he's nothing to compare to the brilliant Johnson but, he did okay I guess. At least he has stubs and his ponytail is not shining blonde. Well in the end, the 3 points is more important than the many points I collected in my Fantasy Premier League hehehe.

Now the United-Arsenal match. To be honest I didn't really know who I wanted to win but, after a few minutes watching the faces of those United scums, who am I kidding, of course I never wanted to watch Manchester United win. But Arsenal lost anyway so.. Chelsea and Spurs are the ones with a 100% wins now. Can't wait for Chelsea-Spurs clash later.


Bye!

Champions League draw

Interesting draws! Especially the part where the two Spanish giants are clashing against two Italian giants. The non-EPL fans are all ticked off on the fact that the English Big Four are going against some minor third-rated teams bla bla bla but, I don't see how this outcome could've been some kind of a magic trick. Fair and square la.

So Liverpool are drawn against Fiorentina, Lyon, and Debrecen. To be honest, we are in a tougher group than Arsenal and Manchester United. But guess what Ferguson has said after the draw? "We have been handed a tough Champions League draw". Pfft. Liverpool have beaten that fricken' Besiktas 8-0 la wei (Babel was on hat trick on this one, wasn't it?). Still, Chelshite still needs to go against Atletico Madrid. Who have beaten us in the pre-season harhar.

Yeay we'll see you!

I've always adored Fiorentina's purple jerseys by the way. Imagine they'll play at home against us soon. It will be like, purple shirts vs black+gold shirts. Ahh pretty colors! :)

Hm anyways, I wonder why the guys at school are quiet about the Liverpool loss.. sebab bulan Ramadhan tak baik ejek orang eh? :|

'Pool 1 - 3 Villa.

I missed the first half because I overslept haha. But waking up seeing we're 2-0 down and with Torres' pretty face ruined by some kind of bruise just made me feel like going to sleep again. I watched the highlights at half time and we actually had a few good attacking moves. Of course it was all blocked by multiple number of white shirts in front of the goal. First goal was deflected through Lucas. Now what am I going to say again about this boy.. And the second goal was a lucky good header.

When Torres nets it the goal we knew that we could make a comeback. But we conceded a penalty right after we scored the goal. Oh well, there's always not much to blame when Stevie concede a penalty. Though he did look a bit clumsy throughout the second half. It's our two defenders who performed outstandingly -- Insua and Johnson. Always provided crosses and regain possession. Credits to Mascherano as well. Very good defensive job.

We had chances but we weren't lucky enough. Is this perhaps a God's test to a future Premier League title holder? Man United had a bad start on last season too. Hehe.

Reading you guys punya blog was less depressing than what I was gonna write at first. But now I think I'm gonna be more optimistic lah. Come on, Reds! WALK ON!

4-0 sounds very familiar.


Happyyyyyy! Cheers to my effort for waking up in the middle of the night and searching for streaming links on the internet. It's easy when you have Twitter anyway, fans there just tend to share links. Thank God I found a good link. Though, after the second half viewers are increasing and thus the advert to 'upgrade to premium' came out every 20 seconds. Imagine how many times I had to refresh the page to get rid of it. Cheers to my effort to that as well.

Howeverrr, I didn't miss any of the goals except the first one because I only started watching at the 7th minute :( But saw the replay, typical Gerrard-Torres partnership la kann :D

After watching Johnson's performance in this and the previous match, all I want to do is to give full credits to Rafa for being such a genius to think that Johnson is capable in our team hehe. He showed such an impressive performance. He deserved his goal and what a breathtaking acrobatic bicycle-kick as well! The link up between him and Kuyt is very good. Though Rafa kept claiming that he bought Johnson to be more defensive, I think the team became more attacking with Johnson on the right. Ohh he played like Sergio Ramos, kan? Definitely in my Fantasy Premier League team lah after this :D

Kuyt's goal - full credits to my handsome captain! Gila babeng what a difficult turn he made. And Ngog.. right place at the right time. Johnson jugak yang cross bola! :D

Geez I put smileys at the end of every paragraph. Huh. Anyway, thank God this match came so quickly. Now we can forget that horrible defeat. Relishing the Anfield moments for it was another 4-0 to the mighty Reds!

And 1-0 to Burnley HAHAHAH. Haish tak boleh pulak nak ejek sebab dah kalah first game hari tu :|
