scraped through...

Liverpool managed to scrape through with a 2-3 win against Bolton last night. It would have been an exhibition match for the Reds had they taken their chances. Bolton took the lead first. Glen Johnson then equalised through a nice shot from the edge of the penalty box, slotting in his second for the club. the home team scored again but it was later equalised again by El Nino. Liverpool were then hunting for another goal and they got one, Captain Fantastic, with a great volley, scoring the winner. Once again, Lucas Leiva started the match and surprisingly stayed on the field for the full 90 minutes and once again we sucked in the middle, i have to admit. During the first half, Bolton played a really frustrating tactic - man marking. Fabrice Muamba was following Gerrard everywhere he goes. I call that a coward tactic! Gerrard didnt have much influnce in the game. That, THAT! was the time for another CENTRE MIDFIELD to step up. and who was there? the "great" lucas. i totally believe that Benitez is trying too hard to make lucas look like a good signing. hey, not in the premier league. i was even surprised to see good reviews of him on the NewPaper yesterday. LUCAS LEIVA IS NOT PREMIER LEAGUE STUFF! you want to call him the Gerrard of Brazil? Put him in the championship. or throw him to Leeds United. Be a hero there and bring Leeds back to the top flight. Benitez took out Albert Riera, Dirk Kuyt and even Javier Mascherano last night. you mean lucas was playing better than masch in the middle last night. oh my god, get him a new pair of glasses please.

sidenote: i really miss alonso :(

oh you know its been so long...

gosh, i havent updated my blog for ages now. exams exams exams. i wonder how many hours i spent studying in the room and singing like a mad man. now i'm like a man who just came out from the jungle. i've got no clue what's happening, what's on tv. i can easily say that i watched tv for like barely 2 to 3 hours the past week or so. now, its time to say...



hell hell hell yeah, its time for fun, games, music, family, friends and all the things that's been lacking right now ;)

microfiltration, ultrafiltration, reverse osmosis...

yeah! ndp was a blast last night! chapter 1 was not bad, chapter 5 was fun!

and i got a hand shake plus a hug from syed ahmad ;) hahahaha, i'm kidding sayang :)
well, he did that to everyone to thank and congratulate us.

so now, let's talk about something, long overdue, KOP COMES TO SINGAPORE!!!!
it was really really really a dream come true for me. having supported Liverpool since i was 8, but knowing nothing at all, till now, knowing most of the fan chant and more of the illustrious history of the club. it was a day i've always hoped for. to watch the Liverpool team play, in front of my own eyes! but i also got a bonus, the whole kallang stadium was transformed into Anfield. what a wonderful atmosphere it was. tens of thousands of Liverpool fans singing their hearts out, the words of You'll Never Walk Alone said with full of passion and pride. for the first time, i came to a soccer match 5 hours before kick off, and hell yeah, i got a good spot.

i got to see my heroes warming up right infront of me, RIGHT. there were just a few metres away from me, A FEW METRES!!! i saw FERNANDO 'EL NINO' TORRES, XABI ALONSO, PEPE REINA, DIRK KUYT, ALBERT RIERA, EMILLIANO INSUA, KRISZTIAN NEMETH, DANI PACHECO, JAY SPEARING, ANDREA DOSSENA and a few more, A FEW METRES AWAY FROM ME. well i saw the others, like JAMIE CARRAGHER, GLEN JOHNSON, JAVIER MASCHERANO, YOSSI BENAYOUN, MARCUS BABEL, ANDRIY VORONIN, DAVID N'GOG. but they were a bit further. well i saw RAFA BENITEZ and SAMMY LEE too! gosh, it was indescribeable to see all of them, with my own eyes.

so now, let's bring in the pictures....

some pics from the press...




it was Xabi's last game for us :'( what a blow for us. he is surely irreplaceable. but we can find a good replacement. the man who can score from the halfway line, who have wow-ed me and inspired me so much with his pin-point, world class passes, the man who scored at Istanbul and help us lift the trophy there. the man who has proved to be one of the best to have worn the Liverpool shirt. The man who have been a favourite among the KOP, whose name is in the KOP chants. the midfield maestro, Xabi Alonso. one of my favourites, and will always be remembered. well, his family is back at home, Spain. Madrid came offering him big money and also meant he can play back at home soil close to his family. who could blame him? well, all the best to him. who knows, he could be back ;)

back to work now, ET Report!

ps: 3 more days sayang! :):):).....I LOVE YOU!!!
