Can we or can't we criticize?

Why exactly that we can’t criticize? Although rationally criticizes always come after a defeat, and it does not imply when we are winning there’s no room for criticizes. I was referring to a post on the LFC forum. RB is a great manager himself. Yes he is. But doesn’t mean everything he applied and exercised constantly is accurate and perfect. Yes nobody is perfect. “Loyal” as defined; ‘faithful to any leader, party, or cause, or to any person or thing conceived as deserving fidelity’. Which suggest in RB situation that we must always hold up to him in any circumstances?


RB is a great tactician. I admire him personally. From my point of view, let’s not talk about the CL final, I’ll go for the whole season. What disappoints me the most was the transfer market. Yes we do not have the buying power compare to Chelsea and Man United. But why in the first place bought a lot of average player where by you can keep the money for future investment or invest at that time for 2 or 3 quality players. We have a lot of other young players. I was hoping the like of Paul Anderson to future more in the first team. Sinama does not given more chances, to compare Sinama with Gonzalez, in my opinion Sinama is much more better. I thought RB could have done better in the transfer market.


With the current line-up at his disposal, we can’t expect a lot from them. On paper, most of us would agree that Milan was a better side last night and was better a better team in Istanbul. But we showed them that anything can happen in football. But last night the better team won although we played a very good and entertaining football.


RB already justify that major investment will help in the title challenge. So let’s hope he’ll do much better this time. We’ll see how it goes then.

Lucas vs Alonso


Liverpool is set to sign Brazilian midfielder Lucas Leiva from Gremio, manager Rafael Benitez has confirmed. 20-year old midfielder will join the Reds at the start of next season after Benitez beat a host of European clubs for his signature.


I have high regards for the young lad. I am thrilled to see Lucas sign for Liverpool. He’ll be putting pressure for Xabi, Sissoko and Mascherano. Could this be the way out for Alonso from Liverpool? I wouldn’t mind, although I strongly believe others would not like the idea of selling Alonso. I fancy Mascherano more than Alonso. Gerrard-Mascherano is a very good combination for me. With Lucas arrival would add more dept to the central midfield. Having five central midfielders might upset Alonso the most, bearing in mind to much competition for his place. However it is a healthy competition for the team and we might see Gerrard being pushed to the right which I don’t admire the situation. Anyhow it is good move from Benitez for Lucas.


I’m hoping or I might say, we want a high profile signing for next season which we’re lacking for many years. Yes we have quantity, but quality come first. Hope that Benitez will go for quality then go for potential players.

Sorry Man Utd's fans


Taken from http://www.lfcrss.com/. But this the version of mine. Perhaps the next Champions League finale will be in Germany. Then we'll go for 'Almost In Germany' LOL!

You'll Never Walk Alone



SUPERB !!

When you walk through a storm,
Hold your head up high,
And don't be afraid of the dark.
At the end of a storm,
There's a golden sky,
And the sweet silver song of a lark.
Walk on through the wind, Walk on through the rain,
Though your dreams be tossed and blown..

Walk on, walk on, with hope in your heart,
And you'll never walk alone.......
You'll never walk alone.

Walk on, walk on, with hope in your heart,
And you'll never walk alone.......
You'll never walk alone.

Our Special One

Athens here we come!

Mourinho the big bad loser of the year

2005 Finale repeat!

As I expected, Manchester United were knock out from the semi-final. Oh, I’ve been waiting for a long time to say this to the United fans. By no means was it a good game and better luck next time, put more effort to it. Maybe with another 2 or 3 new signing, Man United going to be a true force in Europe or they are already the favorites? Who cares? Hey, don’t get downbeat a lot. Cheer up! You have a premiership title to win. Congratulations to Milan for trashing Man United out of Champion League.

Milan certainly looking for a sweet revenge of the 2005 Finale. Surely it’s not gonna be easy for Milan, their lost in the 2005 final was a big upset to them, if they lost again this time, I’ll say is not an upset again, but a tragedy to them. Obviously, I’m hoping for that to happen. Even better, it will happen. Because this is Anfield and You’ll Never Walk Alone. Bring it on Athens!

“Mamak! Kau pesan sama Cik Azyzeer dan penyokong Milan,jangan marah-marah ye, saya optimistic pada team saya saja.”

Movie Of The Day!


Mr. No Pride Mourinho


Taken from EspnSoccernet. Look who's talking.


Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho claimed the Blues were the better team on the night as his side crashed out of the Champions League on penalties to Liverpool.


Liverpool
won the match on the night 1-0 thanks to Dan Agger's first-half strike which leveled the tie at 1-1. But with neither side able to break the deadlock after extra time, the Reds held their nerve to win 4-1 on penalties with Dirk Kuyt scoring the winning spot-kick. 'It is a moment when everybody has to be strong,' he told ITV. 'They (the Chelsea players) have a lot of reasons to be proud. They did a great run in the Champions League. 'We were the best team today, even against a team only playing for the Champions League. 'In extra-time we were the only team who tried to win, but football is like that and the penalty shoot-out is part of the game.' Mourinho also denied that his comments in the build-up to the game had provided a spur for Liverpool. He added: 'I respected Liverpool always in my words. I don't need to say more and today I think the best team was Chelsea.'



"Hahahahahahahahahaha! I thought the best team should have won it! Crystal clear that your team wasn't the better team that night! Haha! However Mr. Mourinho, you better off kiss my ass, because as I see it, you are the one staying home and we the 'little club' are going to Athens! Isn't it cool? I just can't stop smiling!!! Please Mourinho don't be such a loser!"



This is Anfield

No words can portray these stupendous emotions in me after watching the reds knock out Mourinho and Co. out of the Champions League. After all the hype fashioned by Mourinho, it is such a pleasure seeing my beloved red army will create their way to Athens. ‘The Special One’ is not so special after all. They slipped the Champions League final and most likely handing over the Premiership title to Manchester United. I just can’t stop smiling and I’m pretty sure fellow Kop at Anfield share the same with me. This win specially dedicated to you Mr. Jose ‘No Pride’ Mourinho, because the red’s ‘special one’ has silent you. We are the 12th men! Borrowing Mr. Mourinho quote, “I’m not interested in what everybody says. Moreover, for now obviously I’m not interested at all what you will say Mr. Mourinho."



I never felt this tense when the match started. Even SPM did not make me this nervous. My heart was pounding at top speed. Again, Bolo Zenden started, and it worries me a lot! I don’t want to say this, but at this particular time, thank you Zenden for converting the first penalty! We started the game brightly. We were in control in the first half. The first goal was a good set piece. I wanted to scream out loud, but considering it’s 3++ o’clock in the morning Malaysia time and I’m living in apartment, I kept the loudness in me. The atmosphere was electric at Anfield! It made more difficult for Chelsea. Although Drogba the ‘Drama Queen’ does have a chance to level the game, Pepe Reina made a great safe and kept our hope alive. Drogba is good player, strong in the air. I noticed that most of the time he won most of the header. Yet again, he is such a ‘Drama Queen’. He acts a lot, and that made him the player that I hated the most! For a second time, “I’m not interested in what everybody says and what everybody think!”



In second half, Chelsea starting to put pressure on Liverpool. They started to share the possession. Couple of times they almost manage to draw level and ahead on aggregate. Liverpool had two great chances. Crouch with his header and Kuyt hitting the post. We should end the game with those chances. Kuyt eventually score in the last 10 minutes of the game, but it was rule out because he was offside. The match ended 1-0 in the 90 minutes but level in aggregate. In extra time the aggregate is still level. The match goes to penalty! My heart keeps on pounding even faster. I did not like this feeling. Seeing Zenden to take the first kick scared me to hell! Anyhow, he did convert the spot kick. Thank you Zenden, but still, please go in the summer! Haha! Thank you also goes to Robben and Geremi for sending your team out of the competition. However, it is Pepe Reina the man we should be thankful! He was brilliant in the game even more was the hero of the night with the two marvelous safe in the penalty shoot-out.


Athens here we come! Notes to Mr. Mourinho, This is Anfield! You are not that special after all! You can’t even match the red’s 'special one'! To Liverpool, You’ll Never Walk Alone! Bring it on Athens!!

Raa-fa Rafael


Liverpool were beaten 2-1 at Portsmouth in the Premiership on Saturday despite an excellent second half fightback that saw a Sami Hyypia goal reduce Pompey's 2-0 half time lead given to them by Mwaruwari Benjani and Niko Kranjcar.

The Reds produced a fine second half display and deserved at least a point from this game, but they could not repair the damage done in the first half despite Hyypia heading home in the 58th minute. In addition, they make the long journey back home cursing a below par opening that saw Portsmouth race into an unassailable lead.

Benitez made many changes due to the upcoming second leg of the Champions League. As usual Bolo Zenden starts. Ah, so be it. Just hoping he will not be here next year. It is not a pleasure watching Liverpool losing again. As the season coming to the end, I’ve noted that most of Benitez recruitment does not suit the team. There are too many average players. It is getting more disappointing seeing this bunch of players.


If next year Master Benitez keep on buying average player and keep on experimenting the team, then I strongly believe there will be many years to come to the day that we are going to win the league. If we keep on hanging on faith, then this is not football. Quality comes first. Everyone was slating me in the forum for being negative on the team and keep on telling to have faith. Clearly, I do have faith. However, faith alone it is not enough. We want results! I’ve been supporting Liverpool for 20+ years. The last we won was in 85/86, and I was 5 years old that time. It’s hurting to watch years by years Liverpool slip the title. As usual This is Anfield, You’ll Never Walk Alone.

Youth team in the book


Liverpool's class of 2007
have written their names into Anfield history by retaining the FA Youth Cup.The under-18s lifted the trophy after a dramatic penalty shoot-out against Manchester United in their own backyard on Thursday night.

Steve Heighway's youngsters, who lost the Anfield leg 2-1 last week, took the game to spot kicks following a deserved 1-0 victory at Old Trafford. The victory means Liverpool Under-18s have now gone two years without defeat in youth football's premier competition. What a way for the retiring Heighway to bow out. The triumph was witnessed by new Reds co-owner George Gillett, whose presence provided yet another indication of the safe hands in which former chairman David Moores has placed the club. Mr Gillett's smile as the travelling Kop erupted spoke volumes, while the hoards of Reds watching around the country will be hoping this is just the first of many trophies under our new American owners.

You'll Never Walk Alone


It is not a good start for Liverpool. The match annoyed me a lot, bearing in mind that Bolo Zenden started the match and even went on playing full 90 minutes. It is getting worst went I was swearing most of the time calling Benitez to put in Pennant, although obviously he cannot hear. Pennant eventually came in for the last 8 minutes; which what can he do with that eight fucking minutes? It was a poor decision from Benitez to include the Dutch winger from my point of view. He should not start and should not even wear the red shirts! I will say please Mr. Benitez; let the Dutchmen go in the summer. Crouch should start. Statistic shows that Crouch cannot score if he starts in the bench, even though it is not to believe. It does make sense though.


I admitted, Chelsea outplayed Liverpool in most occasions. They cannot create chances. Cech had a little to save, and the defense was all over the place. It is only Riena left to thank. If is not because of his superb saves, we surely have mountain to climb. It was substandard performance from Liverpool. However, hey, let us not get downbeat, There still 2nd leg to play. Bring it on Chelsea! This is Anfield and You will Never Walk Alone!

Road to Athens.....


A very entertaining breath taking match indeed and I might say a well deserve win for Man United. I was hoping that Milan could hang on better in the second half. They control the midfield well but a disappointed defense cost them tonight. One goal cushion will not be enough but instead it will go Milan favor as for the two valuable goals. It will be tough for United in San Siro and the return leg will boost Milan to chase the coming match. Milan will come good, and I am hoping for that to happen.


Nevertheless, it was a good performance from both teams. I will bet it will not be an easy game for United and they are not still one leg ahead to Athens. My best wish to Milan in the second leg.


Pesan saya pada Encik Azyzeer@Jiji, jangan menangis dulu, simpan air mata untuk 'finale', kalau sampailah hendaknya kerana sejarah 2005 akan berulang lagi!!!!
