Liverpool came out of the stalls the stronger and dominated the first half. Good work by Charlie Adam, Luis Suarez and Craig Bellamy helped put pressure on Chelsea and we finally earned a deserving opening goal courtesy of Maxi Rodriguez.

As expected, Chelsea came out for the second determined to get back into the game, with AVB opting to bring on Sturridge, which proved a good move and it wasn't long before he proved the boss right and claimed an equaliser.

Last January's big signings - Fernando Torres (£50m) and Andy Carroll (£35m) warmed their respective benches until late in the game and when both came on neither made a significant impact.

It was former Chelsea man Glen Johnson with one of his signature cuts into the box from the right, then a perfectly placed slot into the far corner to seal a deserved win for the Reds.

‘We have got a week till the next game and we'll not depress ourselves too much but we will certainly go over it and sort out some of the problems. We will look to see where we can be better and we'll get better.’

Erm, Lucas, Poulsen AND Spearing, Kenny? There’s bulletpoint number one for you.

For every Istanbul there has to be a Deportivo 0-0 game and for every Alaves game a Rapid Bucharest home game (if you can’t remember it you’re lucky). Judging by that criteria the final in Dublin is going to be 9-9 at half time. As great as the United game was the problems with the squad didn’t just appear to Kenny, they practically mugged him. We’ve had one away goal since the qualifiers and that was from a man who can’t get near the second string at the moment. We’re playing a catenaccio system but with extra defenders. Poor Dirk was so isolated at times that he was learning Portuguese at half time just so someone would talk to him.


Of course, this is just how we used to do it. Take a 0-0 away, maybe even a sneaky 1-0 and then set about them at Anfield. Twelve months ago we lost 1-0 to Lille and won 3-0 at Anfield. That side included the karma twins, Torres and Mascherano, while we’ll be without Gerrard (in all probability), Suarez and Joe Cole. Well, Joe will be on the pitch but…


So how can one team beat United and lose to Braga? Personnel? Well, we dropped Maxi (not that great against United), had Gerrard injured and Suarez was illegible. Is Luis the Second really that significant? Clearly. That said, three defensive midfielders and a very slow striker up front with Meirieles in his Hodgson position and Cole on the left doesn’t exactly strike fear into enemy hearts. We’ve still got ninety minutes left so let’s not be too downbeat but it does make me wonder if Braga was the norm and United (and Chelsea) the exception. Whatever happens, people will have to go in the summer as it’s not just the first team that needs improving.


For all the negativity from yesterday there’s always the reminder of what we CAN do when we need to. Sunday was glorious from the moment the words ‘Smalling’ and ‘Scholes’ appeared on the team sheet. The Munsters are an odd bunch. Just give anyone a shirt and expect miracles. Smalling was torn to pieces by Suarez and even Johnson. Scholes, a magnificent player in his time, didn’t want anyone near him and you don’t get time in these games. The shirt isn’t always enough.

If this is United’s worst team in years they still win games on reputation and indefatigability (Blackpool away etc). We don’t have that just yet and it’s interesting to note that our most significant season in recent years was based on late comebacks and a strong spine. We won on Sunday thanks to effort, good tactics (Berbatov seldom enjoys a good quarter of an hour after a bad one so keep him quiet) and getting in their faces. If you sit back, as we did for years at Old Trafford, your only hope is to put some money on the Correct Score. Liverpool turned up on Sunday. That was the difference.

You couldn’t deny the commitment, even if it did go over the top on occasion. Carragher should have been given a red card and would have had Nani not taken a goose-steppingt tour of the touchline before collapsing like Rudolph Valentino on a divan. Rafael too should have gone but got away with it for the second game on the trot but Dowd was never going to risk his career on that. As nasty as it was it was telling how the representatives of both clubs handled the Carragher aftermath. Jamie later tried to apologise to Nani, United wouldn’t let him.


Ferguson too has had enough with shocking refereeing and anti-United media bias. More power to him if it means we’re spared Mike Phelan talking into his shoulder on Match of the Day. We don’t need to hear Ferguson’s views, we know them already. I’ll settle for ‘Carragher should have been sent off, as should Maxi ‘The Iron Man’ Rodriguez, Suarez was offside, it was never a free kick on Kuyt and David Luis should be deported.’ Write that up. Cheque please. Are the media turning on their God? If even Daniel Taylor is starting to suspect the Emperor is naked then that may well be the case. Ferguson is a man who demands respect at all times but knows little of its meaning. As Tony Soprano said ‘those who want respect, give respect’. There’s not enough server space to give examples of Ferguson’s petulance and arrogance so I’ll just ask this. Why would any manager raise an eyebrow to an incoming Liverpool manager, a legend at that, and coyly mutter ‘Well, that’s up to them I suppose’. I hope that interview crossed Kenny’s mind when he shook his hand on Sunday. That’s if he was allowed to. Kenny’s daughter’s in the media after all.


Sunderland next and it is my sad duty to make a confession. Last year I was in striking distance of that beach ball. Before the match I could have plucked it from the sky and ripped it to pieces. Instead I just frowned (I don’t like to see people enjoying themselves at football matches) and got on to wondering who designed our gold shorts. Sorry Rafa.


Kenny will probably give Carroll a start to anger the natives and no doubt there’ll be plenty of beach balls from their end. I wonder if Steve Bruce/Bernard Cribbins will refuse to talk to the media if we win. Jesus, I hope so.

In total somewehere around £200M was spent in this recent transfer window. Phone calls & e-mails were exchanged between clubs, players & agents. In fact BT must have just loved it.

But of course what most concerned us as Liverpool fans, was the departure to Chelsea of the lad we bought from sunny spain. A certain Fernando Torres. And the whole affair surrounding his departure, stinks worse than a pair of my old socks, And that's pretty stinky.

There can be no doubt whatsoever that Chelsea's pursuit of him in the summer helped Torres' wonderlust. & the lack of Champions league football won't have helped things either. And heck we all felt utterly depressed & disappointed during Roy Hodgson's thankfully brief reign as Liverpool manager.

But to put in a transfer request so soon after Kenny returned as manager, & to not give him the slightest chance to turn things around? Hardly the behaviour of someone who had the best intrests of LFC at heart.

And than theres Chelsea. Before Abramovich arrived, they were nothing but a irrelevant cockney annoyance, with psychotic supporters. Now there a buch of incredibly wealthy swellheads. With a hugely inflated feeling of their self importance. Their supporters are still a bunch of psychos mind. The point is of course is that Torres has only gone to Stamford Bridge, because of their huge wedge of cash. There is no other reason. Because without Roman, Chelsea would return to being a nothing club again.

So Torres goes to a club that in recent years have become even more arrogant than the self proclaimed "biggest & best" Man Utd. And he does so uttering a "big club remark" as he leaves. Well after that statement, as far as I'm concerned, Torres can go & rot. Despite a 20 year wait for a league title, Liverpool are STILL the most succsesfull club in the country. Chelsea look on our trophy haul, & other achievments with huge green eyed jealousy. They haven't achieved half of what Liverpool have done. A big club? If football clubs were fishes, Liverpool would be a piranha, & chelsea would be a sardine.

There are words to describe how Chelsea, Torres, & his agent have behaved. But not one of them doesn't involve the use of profanity. And some of them might even be physically impossible.

As for Liverpool FC? Life goes on without Torres. We existed long before he came from sunny spain. And there will continue to be a Liverpool FC long after Torres has hung up his boots. True I for one am not 100% sure about either Suarez or Carroll. But you can guarantee that both of them will learn something about the art of being a centre forward from the manager. Heck, if they can't learn something about being a striker from The King. Then theres no hope for either of them. One things for sure. both of them will put in more effort than Torres has for the last 18 months.

I can only conclude that after all the skills and all the goals that Torres scored at Liverpool we should miss him and wish him well. But after behaving in the way that he has.

If a week truly is a long time in politics. Then 20 years is an eternity in football. And in the 20 years since a certain Kenneth Mathieson Dalglish was last in charge at Liverpool FC. One hell of a lot has changed.

Five different managers have left Liverpool since Kenny left us. For various reasons, not one of them has ultimately proven the right man to bring the title back to Liverpool once, yet alone on the regular basis that we as fans had got used to when Kenny first became manager.

And although the last season of Rafa's tenure, and of course this season is not the first time tha one of Kenny's succsesor's has taken the club backwards (the name Graeme Souness comes to mind here!). Both Rafa & Roy, have taken LFC further down the path of mediocrity then we have ever been before in my lifetime.

Kenny returns as manager at a time when Liverpool have their worst squad in living memory. Certainly we have world class performers in Reina,Torres,Gerrard, & Carragher. But the rest of the squad are mostly average at best. And in at least one case (Konchesky), some of the very worst to ever wear the red shirt.

True a certain pair of American businessmen, that I will not dignify by naming here, share the blame for our current malise. Perhaps even most of the blame for our plight can be sent their way. But Rafa and Roy played their part as well that no one can doubt.

It is now obvious to pretty much everyone that Roy Hodgson was NEVER the right man to manage Liverpool FC. He was a stop gap, brought in by you know who. As no other sensible candidate would have taken the job on when Roy did.

It is true that Roy had a very hard task to take on when he arrived. A poor squad to take over. Virtually no mopney for signings. And the damoclean sword of the ownership issue hanging over the club. But 9 defeats before Xmas, a negative goal difference, & a total lack of cohesion told it's own stoty. Quite simply Roy had to go before LFC became involved in a fight afainst relegation.

So now, the King sits on his thorone once again, and all is right with the world. Well not quite. The squad is of course still the same at time of writing, And the two defeats since Kenny returned have hardly helped out situation.

But the man who I still believe was not the right choice in the summer. Is the right man for the job now. No other potential candidate for LFC manager knows this club better than Kenny does. And no-one else could have given us the instant boost as supporters that Kenny has. His job is incredibly tough. And doubts will always linger because of the way he left last time around. However, HE is back we can celebrate The Return Of The King. Only time will yell whether The King is the man to take us back to our perch once again. But he's certainly the right man to take us out of are current malise. And get us on the right path again
