Today-a schizophrenic team.

Today we saw a Liverpool squad with a makeshift right-back in Mascherano and Gerrard looking hurried. Kuyt gifted Wigan a ball that Rodallega  put away to put the home team on the lead. A frustrated Carragher gave the visiting fans a scare but Kyrigiakos saved a possible second. Torres’ first half woodwork shot was the [...]

It’s been a while…

It has been a while since my last post- my time has been elsewhere. This does not mean that this blog will remain adrift, gathering virtual cobwebs. On the contrary a catalyst is on the horizon. The event that makes the world stop for a month. The World Cup- The motherland did not qualify, thanks [...]

What a week- Defoe comes back while Landon tries Germany again.

The back and forth battle between Portsmouth and Tottenham has come to an end. It seems that the man who tempted Jermain Defoe to Pompey has used his magic to lure Defoe back to White Hart Lane. Harry Redknapp seems to have a magnet and takes many of his former players along with him. Should [...]

During the game with Man U and Man City I felt nervous but I [...]
