Did I forget something? OH YES! A 1-0 win at Chelsea.
-------------------------
So, Luis Suarez....I didn't think he was worth 24 million, but whatever.....we aren't in debt anymore. I would have probably valued him at 18million max.
The Big Man - Andy Carroll....again, we overspent but this time it simply went against funds coming in from a sale so not too concerned about it. I would have said roughly 25 million max for this guy.
RAUL Meireles - the in-form player right now at Liverpool Football Club! Oh, and TAKE THAT Nady!!!!! TAKE THAT!
Fernandina Teresa - he says he never loved Liverpool. He wasn't bigger than the club and, as much as he hates to admit it, he wasn't happy with that feeling that he was owed more than the other members of the roster. I never loved him either. It was obvious to me, from a fairly stage, that he wasn't going to be sticking around for very long.
Next, he said that the club did not come good on its promises to him(presumably about strengthening the squad when Alosno and Mascherano left)......well, 1) the club stood by him during his numerous injuries and off-field tantrums and 2) the club owes no such explanation to any players as this is not a matter for the players to be dealing with. Everybody was upset when Mandril stole Alonso away and when Mascherano decided to trade a starting sport for the Barcelona bench but a) you can't control these things and b) others have been brought in....Joe Cole, Luis Suarez(to play with him and help him out) and Raul Meireles, so it's not like we've stood around and done nothing.
Next he says he never kissed the badge and only loves Atletico Madrid. But he still chose to leave them......boy, he sounds like such a child!
You know, I expected him to put in a transfer request if had a losing patch in January. But, when we were winning, I did not expect him to do it.
Now, I don';t really know how Andy Carroll and Luiz Suarez are going to fit into the squad together. Suarez will not be happy sitting on the bench(as he did against Chelsea) so he could quickly go down the same route as Fernandina if things don't change. I just don't see how Dalglish is going to change things to the point that both these guys AND Raul Meireles will be on the field at the same time. He might have to try a 4-3-1-2 formation with Meireles as a winger and Gerrard just behind Suarez and Carroll.
1-0 win over Chelsea. Raul Meireles becomes the first Liverpool Red to score at Stamford Bridge since Bruno Cheyrou in 2004, ending a goal-less streak of nearly 10 hours in West London. We need Skrtel to be healthy....that's right, NEED!
And we need to do something that we have found to be very hard to do over the past several years...beat teams that we should beat, in the Premier League. We can't afford losses or draws.....WINS are a MUST against weaker league opposition. This really is the name of the game, for us, over the remaining 4 months of the EPL season.
