Rejoice rejoice! Only one last week of ITP left, but I'm bloody disappointed I won't be able to make it to soccer on Saturday which so coincidentally happens to be my last day.

Liverpool - 1
Chelsea - 3

Well, I suppose those were pretty much shocking results, especially following thrashing sprees except for a hard-fought victory at Fulham's home ground. Even I thought we could at least have won by a goal or two, given Chelsea's formidable form as well. Who would have thought Ivanovic was allowed to run so freely in Liverpool's penalty box and allowed to win balls in the air unchallenged. I blame Alonso and Gerrard for that. And then Riera decided to chut stunt, giving the ball away to some Chelsea player, which inadvertently resulted in the third goal, because most of the Liverpool players were breaking away for a counter-attack. Very very poor defending, tsk.

Totally crappy performance from the start of the second half to end, absolutely no fighting spirit unlike what was shown to the world in the finale of the 2005 Champions League. Where was the usual undying determination of the team branded "Comeback Kings"?

What does Rafa Benitez see in Lucas anyway? Cannot hold the ball (and he is a BLOODY MIDFIELDER!), weak, cannot shoot for fucking nuts (saw those 2 balls he "attempted" to shoot? both would have qualified as excellent clearances even by Jamie Carragher's standards). Riera was unusually lousy as well; Torres put Liverpool ahead at 6 minutes but was non-existent later on; oh wait, was Liverpool even playing?

Forgive my lengthy ranting, but I must let it be known. Just visited soccernet,

Liverpool - 4
Blackburn - 0

Why can't they produce results like this against Chelsea? Sighs.
More updates to come prolly after ITP. Sighs again.
