@ Poster, shame on you.

But the good thing is that you'll be in good company at Chelsea; a club that boos its players and managers (Grant) when things get pear-shaped   and jump on-board when things are looking up.

98% of Chelsea fans in this country don't even know anything pre-Mourinho about the club they support!

1.Questions have got to be asked of Rooney and Ronaldo.

2. Ronaldo's Madrid dream.

You deserve a Nobel Prize for that piece of profound wisdom.

Liverpool hold a 100% near perfect Premier League record over West Brom. They have won seven of seven, scoring 22 goals and conceding none.

Can we stop calling football 'soccer'? It takes the prestige of the game away!

A bit off-topic here but I was sat this evening watching Liverpool Legends vs All Stars XI - Hillsbrough Memorial Game . While I was cheering legends like Kenny Dalglish, Jan Molby, Mark Lawrenson, Alan Hansen, Steve Mccan, Ian Rush, etc playing against the likes of Alan Shearer, Teddy Sheringham and Trevor Steven, I almost fainted when CRAIG DAVID (yes the R&B bloke) came in for the opposition!!

When he struck a fantastic 25-yard shot that almost went in, I got very confused

The match ended 3-1 to the Red Legends while Steve Gerrard was the guest of honour.

Oh come on, how boring could it get? We already have two posts from you!!

GERRARD NAMED FOOTBALLER OF THE YEAR
Paul Eaton 13 May 2009


Steven Gerrard is celebrating today after being named Footballer of the Year by the Football Writers' Association.
The Liverpool skipper beat off competition from Manchester United pair Ryan Giggs and Wayne Rooney to win the most prestigious individual award in English football.

Having already landed the PFA Fans Player of the Year award this season, the FWA honour caps another incredible campaign for the 28-year-old midfielder, who has led by example and driven his side to within touching distance of achieving their title dreams.

Whether those dreams are realised over the next week or not remains to be seen, but over the course of the past ten months Gerrard has once again cemented his standing as the finest midfielder in European football.

His two goals at West Ham United on Saturday - which temporarily fired Liverpool back to the top of the league - saw him climb above Ian St John in the club's all-time scoring charts as he took his tally for the season to an impressive 23, equalling his best ever return in a red shirt.

Fifteen of his goals this term have arrived in the Premier League and have included strikes in high-profile games against Manchester United and Everton, while in Europe he also rose to the occasion with five goals in the group stages - including his 100th goal for Liverpool against PSV Eindhoven - and then two more against Real Madrid in the last sixteen clash at Anfield.

"We are delighted to honour Steven's contribution this season with our prestigous award," said Steve Bates, National Chairman of the Football Writers' Association.

"Steven has had a fantastic season and has so often been the driving force behind Liverpool's forceful challenge for the Barclays Premier League title.

"His passion and desire to send the title race into the closing days of this campaign has underpinned Liverpool's pursuit of Manchester United and he has frequently caught the eye with outstanding performances which have showcased his considerable talent.

"Steven is viewed by the Football Writers who voted as the heartbeat of Liverpool's team and a player who gives everything for the cause.

"He beat off a strong challenge from Old Trafford stars Ryan Giggs, Wayne Rooney, Nemanja Vidic and Rio Ferdinand to emerge as a clear winner and he follows a long and illustrious list of British and European footballers to win the vote of the Football Writers."

Steven will be presented with his award at a gala dinner at the Royal Lancaster Hotel in London on Friday May 29.



Excellent player all-round! Well done!!!

I love these Reds! West Ham made it tough for us shaa!

if the guy follow us for chelsea or even bolton he for dey alive now.

No he wouldn't. His suicide would have simply come a day later.

A friend of mine who supports Chelsea came over to see the match with me as confident as anything. Since that match, he's been very strange. I read about the Arsenal fan that hanged himself in Kenya 2 days ago after their elimination. I really hope my friend doesn't tread that path.

HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA! Iniesta's finish was not of this world! Chelsea will need to learn to respect refs.

Where is the title to show for it?

It's fuckery.[/quote]You know what's fuckery? Ferguson's first four years at Utd yielding a series of 13th, 14th, 13th, etc. But the greatest fuckery of them all is the fact that you still can't get a hold of useful brain-cells! People are getting more intelligent you know.

[b]Now let's wait for your latest rant.

medube:
Makes me laugh

oh

medube:
I like this commentator, he says "it hasn't been Arsenal's night." What night has been Arsenal's night in the last 4 years?  

So why do you like the commentator?

fasttrack:
i c an equalizer here, any gunner with the same spirit

Evil spirit.

And please can Fergie just sit down with his mouth shut? The old hag.

Is it me or has Fabregas suddenly gotten older? He looks terribly old today.

This is a hiding!

There's something about Anderson's looks that really pisses me off. I don't know what it is.

lawyer:
I am a proud gunners for life, win or lose but men, the first goal distabilized them any way next season we will win it

seedord247:
And the worst of it is that am a BARCA FANS.

No offence mates but how many are you exactly?

cabali:
You wanna bet??

I'm just saying that Barca are good enough to beat Chelsea and vice versa. We ALL know that but won't ALL admit.

Arsenal should have asked Benitez to advise them before the match. This approach is so wrong against Utd. Start defensively and then attack more as the opposition tires NOT the other way round.

cabali:
So it is Man U we will beat at the finals. . . . cool!!!!

That comment might just bite you in the ass tomorrow.

Its over for Arsenal. 2-0 to Utd. At least hit Utd with some injuries.

By the way, the other boy in that first photo was Gerrard's best friend, Tony Hibbert, who's now a star with Everton football club, the other side of merseyside.

Liverpool skipper makes up for missing out on Players' Player trophy

5th May 2009

Any disappointment PFA Players' Player of the year nominee Steven Gerrard may have felt on missing out on the union's grand prize can now be erased, as he has scooped the fans' award.

The Liverpool skipper, who has picked up three monthly awards this season, can now add the title of PFA Fans' Player of the Year 2009 to his ever-growing list of honours.

England midfielder Gerrard was the first ever winner of our annual fans' player award back in 2001 and this latest tribute shows that his popularity is as great as ever.

There's no bigger fan of the inspirational Liverpool star than PFA Chief Executive Gordon Taylor: "Steven has always been a particular favourite of mine and I was delighted when he was nominated by his fellow pros for our Players' Player of the Year award.

"Obviously, that particular award went to Ryan Giggs, and rightly so, and I am equally thrilled that football fans up and down the country, givemefootball readers, have acknowledged Steven in this way.
Worthy winner

"Like his many supporters and suitors, I have the utmost respect and admiration for the way he continues to go about his business. He is a top pro and a worthy winner."

Have you guys heard? Hyppia's off to Bayern Leverkusen. Its a sad day for me and millions of Liverpool fans everywhere. That guy was a true legend.

Petr Cech has had his fair share of good seasons BUT this season, he's been very abysmal bordering on average. Let's face it, if we remove this annoying big-4 mask, we would notice keepers like Harper, Given and Jaskelinen have managed to pull off fantastic saves this season without the odd howlers that Van der Saar, Cech, Alumnia and Reina seem to suffer once in a while.

Playing at this frightening level and with such attacking wizardry should see the Reds lift the title next year surely. Its going to be the first time in history a team with just 2 losses all season will miss out on the crown!
