0-1 Chelea win on a late Joe Cole shot that took a lucky deflection. we had a clear penalty turned down. Alonso is now out with a broken ankle.
Alonso's injury is a huge blow, luckily for Liverpool it occured at a time when they can make purchases. Riley denied Pool a clear penalty and in truth you guys deserved a point.
I happened to catch most of the Chelsea game, I hope that Liverpool gets a striker in the window, because that's the only thing that kept them from kicking the crap out of Chelsea.

Pellegrino will struggle to keep up with the pace in England. Isn't he like 32 now? Sounds like a rather dubious signing to me.
