We all have emotions. We all say and do things in the heat of a battle. This season has been by far the most interesting season in recent years. Liverpool are on the verge of clinching the title. Manchester United are having a terrible season due to, "Transitional changes" apparently. I don't have to run through every team here but, I think we all know it's been a better season than previous, obvious seasons in recent years!
Chelsea lost fairly yesterday. Sunderland defended really well. My only real issue, is that when these teams who battle relegation at the end of a season, all of a sudden come out with a fight when they see the drop in site. From interviews and fan reactions yesterday, it was almost as if Sunderland were on the verge of winning the league, not facing the drop.
I think the fact we lost to a side that has played poorly all season is the real issue I'm having to face. Play with that fight all season and I have no problem.
At the end of the day they won. We once again weren't clinical enough in front of goal. All we need is a proper, consistent striker. It's over for Fernando Torres. A £50 Million striker, once a god send to the league and Liverpool FC. What happened?
Chelsea is what happened to Torres. It's common knowledge that Liverpool played every game around Torres. Chelsea have never done that and never will. I was surprised that Rafa never tried to introduce that. £50 Million happened. I would actually much prefer to see Fernando still at Liverpool, linking up with Steven Gerrard. I love football, and that was football.
Anyway, Mourinho has emotions like the rest of us. His sarcasm yesterday was the sarcasm of a competitive man. I would rather see him like that than act like he didn't care. Hey, he's still getting paid millions for doing the job whether he succeeds or not. He only shown bitterness because he likes to win. Isn't that why we have a league table? To compete?
BIG game today for Liverpool. This is the time. The time that will tell if Liverpool can handle the pressure at the top. If they can handle it, good luck to them and most of all, good luck to my favourite player of all time, Steven Gerrard. That man deserves a premier league medal.
IT'S NOT OVER YET!
