I was really worried that we would paper over the cracks, and allow the club the opportunity to trot out the usual BS excuses "we weren't far away", "other competitions took their toll", "missing player x hurt", blaa, blaa, blaa.
Our squad is sub-standard, as is our Manager (as much as I love the great man) .. The owners can't hide from these facts and need to fix it.
3 years ago when you beat man utd 4-1 at their ground in the last few games of the season, where you were on top then from memory??? its gone downhill from there IMO!
I dont see liverpool (like us) winning the EPL for many years now....
No we were a couple of points behind, although we had held the lead just after the midway point of that season IIRC (Jim??)
Much more quality in that lineup to where we are today .. Gerrard was at his peak, as was Torres .. Alonso and Mascherano were superb in the middle of the park, and there were a couple of underrated types like Arbeloa (IMHO).
The de-construction of the club from then on by H&G is well documented, but in some respects we still feel the aftermath of that, and in some respect it's an excuse .. KK was given decent money to spend last transfer season, and we're not a club financial enough to carry a 35-million pound player who gives little in return.
It will be a long time before Liverpool genuinely press for EPL honours unfortunately
Now the morning games will be on at 5am, and i can watch them before work now !!
or when the bigger club ARSENAL has a poor result
