S for Superman? No, S for Steven Gerrard!
Once again, a disappointing performance from a large chunk of players. Only a few decided to take the responsibility to try and win us this game vs. Man City. One of them, unsuprisingly, Stevie G!And the ever alert Kuyt decided to capitalise on City's defensive mistake and Stevie G made no mistakes from outside the box!
Thank God Reina has not been clumsy of late or we would start losing even the home games. We have been robbed indeed with the absence of Momo is the middle of the park. His presence would have allowed Gerrard to play a more attacking role. But the goal vs. City is gonna bring back his confidence and become the most feared engine room captain once again! The way he celebrated made me feel like catching a flight to Liverpool and hugging him and scream in joy!
With Pompey, Wigan and Fulham coming up, wins against all three would bring us up to the top four and probably take advantage of those who have been dropping points of late. At least by Xmas, we'll be in a comfortable position as the January transfer window opens. I'm praying real hard that we get a couple of fantastic midfielders, if possible, one play maker (like Zola in his prime) and a rock solid central defender to have the variety in that area.
I still feel that 3rd or 4th is not impossible for us to achieve by the end of the season but, we gotta start winning, even if it is those one nil scrapped results.
Leave it all to the Almighty! He'll bring us there!
Hope I'll be able to celebrate Christmas this year with a wide smile and be very able to face those Chelskis and Mancs fans during this festive period!
