We didn't really play well in many league games so far,but looking at the bright side,without CL distractions,we can only start to play better from now onwards & hope to see El-Nino back on the pitch soon.

we rested many key players in mid wk ECL hence i expected Pool to gear up n perform well agt Hull last nite. yes, we have a fresh captain Stevie who single handedly bailed us out again. but d same cannot be said for d other key players who didnt perform to expectations.
impt thing now is tt, even if we lose d leadership in d coming wks, we gotta make sure we dun lose too much ground agt d leader.

Rafa seems to have some hidden agenda agt Keano huh? sooner or later, if he kena benched too often, he may juz become very tu lan n look for greener pastures. i tot he'll come on as sub in d last 20 mins or so to try win d game. our prob this season agt d lower teams is still finding players capable enuff to unlock d opposing defence. we cant expect Stevie G to b doin tt too often. Benayoun, Kuyt, Babel n Riera tried very hard but too bad they r juz nt gd enuff. seems like Torres is our best hope. rembr how well he linked up with Gerrard when he started. seems to have some telepathy betn them. hopefully we'll do better by time he comes bk in Jan (expected). it's still nt too late as long as we r still in d title race.
