Well, after that not so convincing win over Marseille in the CL last week, we return to the BPL for the visit of my good mates team 'The Hammers' on Monday night at Anfield (20:00 GMT kick-off). It goes without saying we need to beat them!
With Torres out for at least 3-4 weeks and Aurelio out for two with hamstring and calf injuries respectively, its only going to get tougher!
Its the first of December tomorrow and Christmas is almost upon us, the time of good will to all men etc etc etc, blah blah blah!!! I say stuff that and the under achievers / act and together types at L.F.C. need to work out where its going wrong and bloody soon!!!!
I know its not all doom and gloom, we're through to the last sixteen of the CL and joint first of the Premiership (damn goals difference) with you know who! But when Dirk Kuyt is the top scorer in all competitions for us, something is amiss big time. Please don't get me wrong, saying that isn't a criticism of the player himself, far from it!
BREAKING NEWS.............................As I write this post the Arse have beaten the Chevs two goal to one at the Bridge, yea ha!!!
The game tomorrow night has now become a very important one. We have to win it and finally get the top spot...bring it on!!!!!
Getting back to what I was saying, my criticism is aimed at the way Torres is being rushed back when its becoming very obvious that his hamstring injury is far more serious than first thought (fourth or fifth time in his Liverpool career) and a lot of the blame must ultimately lie with the Spanish National team training programme, but also Rafa's substitutions of late are beyond me!!!!
On a side note we are to play Preston North End in the F.A. Cup and our old friend and former player Neil Mellor on the weekend 3-4 of January next year!
Take it easy, ron and otherside!
