wait till next week he turns into a villain again

Lampard's red card was harsh no doubt but in the end, we showed more willingness to get forward. How often did you see Bosingwa or Cole making runs down the flanks? Did Anelka even manage to muster a shot on target? We've often disagreed on matters and I think we will again. I must admit that we were somewhat fortuitous but hey, we've been hard done by before as well. The last time Chelsea visited Anfield, Rob Styles awarded a penalty after Malouda jumped into Steve Finnan. Earlier this season, we had a clean goal disallowed against Stoke, denying us 3 points. Sometimes you get the run of the mill and sometimes you don't, I think you'd agree.

Anyhow these were the stats from soccernet.

Shots on Goal : Liverpool 25(9) - Chelsea 8(2). Corners : Liverpool 12 - Chelsea 1.

The posession count was pretty much even but we pressed higher up the pitch than they did. We got the ball into wide areas whenever possible but were lacking in ideas in the final third. I just find it hard to believe that we didn't go for a win after all the observations I've just made. "Deserved"? I think we all know now that in the end, the team that deserves to win is the one that puts the ball in the back of the net. Ceteris Paribus.

Sorry to go OT but I'm just responding to an issue currently being discussed.

That Alonso is a great play maker? No opens up play like having a player sent off! 

but seriously after you watch the replay, it seems the it's alonso who fouled lampard. lampard did get the ball and alonso came and kick him.

Here's where there is a grey area. My personal take is that it was a harsh decision and a yellow at the most. However when you go into a challenge with your studs showing, you tend to get into trouble even if you win the ball but still go through the player. If Alonso had stayed grounded, Lampard would have slid right through him. The same can be said of players that win balls from behind or the side before sliding into the opposition player. Just because he doesn't have the ball anymore, doesn't mean you can up end him.

stupid torres score twice in last minutes..haizz..congrates 2 liverFOOL n bubye 4 lampard 4 da red card..LOL

so.. this shows the end of scolari?

meh

its football, shit happens. Murphys Law. Even though its not always right, it happens. What happened has happened.

If the league is perfect, it won't be that interesting anymore. No more controversies, no more drama. No more bollocks written in the papers. I much prefer it that way. To win the league, its not about having the best team i find. You need to have the champion's luck. That luck will give you an edge out of the other competitors.

Might be watching the game while assembling my PC onto the new casing that I bought earlier today. Now at work, will finish at 12am. Spent RM1.5k for casing, lcd and hdd. 

Am hoping for a draw but got a feeling that either one will nick full points tonight.

box.. so much money for upgrade ur rig huh.. haha..

btw, so far so good for us.. but i am not sure if i can tahan watching the game for the next 45 minutes.. damn bored game!!

True that. The sending off changed the face of the game imo. Lampard is far and away the best player for Chelsea atm, he's probably the only one playing with real heart. The challenge was a nothing one. 50-50 ball, Lampard lunges in, nicks the ball and gets kicked in the foot by Alonso. Riley rushed into a decision there. Lol at Mikel's reaction to the red though, on slow mo it looked hilarious. Guess Fergie, the "leader of the FA and referees" will not be to pleased with Riley. No bottle of wine for him then. And that Bosingwa kick was one of the funniest things I've seen in a long time.

Like I said before, Chelsea were always gonna be the bigger threat in the long run. Yes, Scolari is clueless, but the team knows what it takes to seriously challenge for the league up to the end, having done so for the last 4-5 years. This was probably the 2nd best result (or best some would argue) we could have gotten.

edit: Alien didn't like my post

Talking abt refrees, did u guys watch the match between Stoke City and Manchester City...
I dun understand why Rory Delap was sent off but not Shaun Wright-Philips.. If Delap deserved a red card for kicking the ball and accidentally ( but it seem obvious ) kicked Shaun, bt why not Shaun sent off by kicking Delap? and Shaun din even get a yellow card for the 'foul' he commited.. Studs showing (although its nt high) into Etherington b4 he was kicked by Delap...

Funny decision.. bt luckily the result is fair enuff..

think scolari make a mistake by commenting on referee before a big match against big club.. those who make comment on referee before big match sure kana backfired. that why Sir Alex don comment on referee before big match..
