the thing about liverpool is that they have a very medicore set of players.and frankly,no one in their squad would be a part of any of europe's biggest sides other than gerrard and alonso.the english game has killed morientes.luis garcia is an over rated twat who had loads of luck with his goals last season,and peter crouch,he just boils my blood everytime i see him play - he's a shame to football.how sven goran erikkson can pick him over a much more talented and deserving player like jermain defoe is beyond me.cisse held a lot of promise,but now he cant find the net even if his life depended on it.jamie carragher was great last season,but it was 1 season,and that is it.
just take two world class players in alonso and gerrard out of the equation,and liverpool present a more sorry state than madrid presented after the 3-0 loss to barcelona.sure they won the CL last season,and their annoying fans claimed "the liverpool era is back.we will dominate again",someone should have reminded them that had it not been for a massive stroke of luck,they wouldnt even be in the CL rite now.they wudnt even have been in the final had luck not been on their side last season.
i remember 2 incidents very clearley :
1.del piero was fouled inside the penalty box by traore at anfield,it was a clear cut penalty,even the commentators agreed,but that idiot of a refree didnt give it.
2.the luis garcia goal against chelsea.it could have gone either way,and liverpool were lucky enough to see it go their way.
people talk about the final.other than a 6 minute spell of utter madness,milan had liverpool by the scruff of the neck.and when you compate 6 minutes to 114 minutes,then i guess its obvious which team deserved to win.sure,football is a cruel game,and lots of times they deserving side does not win,but liverpool did not deserve to win the final.it should have been milan's.period.
