Liverpool’s Games Are
September 16 v Marseille (a)
October 1 v PSV Eindhoven (h)
October 22 v Atletico Madrid (a)
November 4 v Atletico Madrid (h)
November 26 v Marseille (h)
December 9 v PSV Eindhoven (a)
But First And Foremost, We Should All Pay Tribute To Dirk Kuyt and Pepe Reina, Because Without His (Kuyt) Last-gasp Goal and His (Reina) Awesome Saves and Penalty-stop, Liverpool Would Not Be In The Group Stages…So Let’s All Take A Moment For That…
Now, The Marseille Game Shouldn’t Be Too Much Of A Problem, Unless Liverpool Keep Playing The Way They Have (Let’s Hope They Don’t)
PSV Should Be Less Of A Problem Than Marseille
The Atletico Games Should Be Interesting, The Fans’ Reaction To Torres, Who Signed For Liverpool From Atletico Last Summer…
Rafa Admits Gerrard May Not Play Against Manchester United
According to a renowned specialist, Gerrard was supposed to be out for a minimum of three weeks, maximum being six weeks, but Rafa does not care, insisting that even though Gerrard may miss the Man U match on september 13th, he will be fully fit for the start of the Champions League group stages (Marseille on September 16th…just three days later)
“He may not be fit for the Manchester United game, but he certainly will be okay for the first group stage match next month.”
Let’s hope he’s right.
