Lamentable season for Liverpool continued, with regard to results against the Big 3 ..

Arsenal - 2 draws
Man U - Narrow loss and convincing win
Chelsea - 2 wins

11 of a possible 18 points probably should have resulted in a better season for the Reds .. They are showing some greatly improved signs though, so hopefully next year we can get back amongst it.

Excellent result for Liverpool (and United of course ;) ).

It was funny to see Kenny tell Wenger to piss off at the end of the game, I am actually surprised Wenger managed to see the incident with Lucas and Eboue.

Arsenals top 4 results ;) (just for you CP :D )

Chelsea - lost at the bridge 2-0/Won at the emirates 3-1
Liverpool - Drew at Anfield 1-1/Drew at the emirates 1-1
Man City - Drew at the emirates 0-0(city played with ZERO up front)/Won 3-0 at City stadium
Man Utd - Lost at Old trafford 1-0/- 1st of may play at emirates

so we have faired against the big clubs

So 9 points from a possible 21 ... What would we all rate as a pass mark?

Also, I didn't include Man City and neither of us included Tottenham, which would weaken Liverpools record a bit.

I'm pretty sure we've scored 0 points this season against the likes of Blackpool (x2) ... With all due respect to them, if you want to be a contending team, you have to get the points against those battling relegation.

Kuyt scored with last kick of day to earn a 1-1 draw. Wenger carried on like a knob and confronted the refs and then dalglish. The penalty looked a little harsh but seen plenty like that given. Leaves Arsenal 6pts behind with 6 to play. Title destiny well and truly in our hands, need only 12 points to clinch it and hopefully we can take all 3 from newcastle. Still a twist left in title somewhere i feel but looks like the Arsenal v United game could be the deciding match


What was the reason for so much injury time ?

I'm guessing it would have been for Carragher getting knocked out and stretchered off (I didn't see it, just read reports)

Carragher to ages to to get stretchered due to a head knock plus subs etc. 8 minutes was about right I thought. Then arsenal took ages to take their penalty and wasted time celebrating the goal so the ref saw fit to add another 3 minutes.

Yeah I caught the match highlights in the pub this evening - it was hilarious seeing Wenger prancing around like a dodo complaining about the penalty and Kenny just giving him a disdainful mouthful. Priceless!

And received a fine reception from the Arsenal fans as he was being stretchered off too.

We just couldnt finish this morning. Played them off the park but couldnt get a winner. Disapponting result but still a point, only 11 more to get and hopefully spurs and birmingham give us a hand tomorrow.
Was hilarious watching the toon supporters celebrate a draw against us like they had just won the league, maybe its the closest they can get to winning the league for this pathetic club

Well we did steal a League trophy from them many years ago. :lol:

Disappointing to only draw Newcastle, hopefully Spurs can do us a favour and knock off Arsenal.

To be honest more worried about the chavs. Cant see them dropping too many more points and drogba seems to scoring at will. Cant see arsenal winning all their games, think they might draw a couple
