It worth every seconds of me lossing my precious seconds of my sleep and stayed awake to watch the game till the 92min + the Final Score report.
Liverpool start so brightly.... cutting the supply from midfield... great tactics from Ah Ben to play 4-5-1. Look at the half time stats... ZERO goal, ZERO corners, ZERO shots on target, ZERO shots off target... all ZEROs for Arsenal which means they dont even come close in scoring and Kirkland has nothing much to do in the first half.
We look so good without Josemi and Garcia or was it the return of our wonder stevie wonder captain.
Great movment to create the goal.. Mellor was smart to draw draw Campbell with him and created the open space for Alonso to score. Overall I think Mellor has a good game. Being the lone striker up front... endless runnings.. he should have done better with the strike on the cross bar, if it went in it should have stand cos he is NOT offside. He deserved to score the winner, a half chance.. and he made it count.
Only player which I felt looks not as good is Kewell.
He look like he lost the touch for football, lost the fitness. Second half he is catching his breathe. Blasting 2 good chances into the stands when he should have done better with better crosses from the left in the second half.
From soccernet : "Vieira then went down with Hamann not even having made contact - an act worthy of a booking, and thus a sending-off, but he escaped."
I can't believe player like him have to use such dirty tricks. He should have been sent off
Arsenal should play in the English Diving League. Why do they have to use such dirty means to win??
We beat Arsenal... and we did it unlike how Man U did it. (Man U played rough...
and all most took out Reyes's legs) we made Reyes look useless till he have to be taken off.
Hope this will be the turning point for the Reds
