Well, Pool fans must now be fuming after Pools’s loss at Sunderland; that makes it 4 losses in the season now. Only Consolation is that Chelsea lost as well. With Man Utd continuing to pick up points even when not playing anywhere near their best, the title seems to be heading back to OT at the moment.

Those idiots who stood by Mr. Baboon Rafa when he had the run-in with the American jokers who owns the club must certainly be starting to tear their hair out now. In short the club is in a mess.

Look at the starting line up today and you have to wonder whether the team have progressed under Rafa. Other than Carra, Agger, Skrtel and Reina, the rest of the team are made up of very average players at best. The squad looks thin and it is a surprise after Rafa spent over 200 million quid in his time and has failed to build a strong squad.





I am absolutely sick of this fella and his transfers have only brought the club backwards. Lucas, Pennant, Pongolle, Leto, Paletta, Insua, Ngog, Babel, Plessis, Voronin, Riera, Degan, Dosena, Kyrgiakos are all not Pool type of players. He sold Crouch who had a good record at Pool, he sold Keane after playing him out of position, he lost the trust and Alonso and eventually he left.

He reverted to 3 central defenders, something he has not done in his time and that is baffling. From the bench he had to bring on Ngog and Voronin to try win the the game and that is definitely a disgrace for a club of Pool’s profile.

No wonder Mourinho is laughing all the way from Milan.

Without Stevie G and Torres back in the team, you can only see Pool struggling again in Lyon and against Man Utd next weekend.

If Pool lose again at Anfield next weekend, I am sure the pressure will be for him to leave.





Well, no surprise isn’t it? Again, Man Utd won again without playing well and were lucky to hold on after being nailed back by Bolton towards the end. Fergie was honest this time round saying he felt his team was lucky to hold on.

You do wonder how long will Man Utd cpntinue picking up points playing this way. They have been more workman like rather than creative this season. That is no surprise for me after they lost CR7 and Tevez.

Elsewhere, Chelsea continue to bore all soccer fans with their display and I have to say Villa deserved the 3 points. The season seems to be turning out like the last; the teams seems to be getting de-railed after a good start to the season. I do hope Big Man Carlo can turn it round or he will be under loads of pressure.

The team’s play seems too one dimensional for me with the aging midfield and no width to the formation. Lampard seems to be put of sorts this season and his lack of goals must be a worry for the team.

Neutrals will definitely want Arsenal to win the league for the way they play the game. They seem to be picking up their form again after their double blow at Manchester. I do hope they can pick up the points and win the title as they are a team that deserves the league.

Everton’s struggles continues and Tottenham got a great win at Pompey.

Man City plays on Sunday and with Pool and Chelsea losing, they will be aiming for a win to edge closer to the top and strengthen their push for a top 4 position at least.

Fugging balloon, really unlucky there. What I am asking myself is what is Rafa thinking starting Lucas over Mascherano? Definitely something has gone wrong if Lucas has priority over Mascherano. Aquilani could be the only thing to save Rafa at this point, if he plays out of his skin and starts scoring goals and making a difference Rafa could be out of the hot seat. I still support Rafa, but it is getting harder to do so, we have known we needed a striker to fill in for Torres if he couldn't play ever since Keano left, and Rafa hasn't done that. Then he plays Lucas over Mascherano? I just don't know why he feels Lucas needs to play, he isn't that good, certainly not the caliber of Mascherano. This looks like a season we Liverpool supporters may have to suffer through, but with the likes of Torres and Gerrard on the squad there will still be a lot to cheer about. The thing I fear most is, if Rafa leaves and our form doesn't improve will Fernando stay?
