More handy money from the 'lets play it safe and play for a draw' scousers...  take a good look at the premier table lads because I think it is the last time you will see LFC at the top for a long while

Perhaps United and Chelsea will get their shit together next week EC...

Believe me lads I am as happy as you lot at Chelsea dropping points, I fully expected liverpool to drop at least 2 points against Arsenal but I did not expect Chelsea to drop points against Everton. It is an unexpected bonus for Utd to make up 2 points on both teams the same weekend they are crowned world champions

Who did utd get three points against at the weekend??

Whiskey nose himself has said before that he would rather have points on the board than games in hand.

Uusally you would scoff at his comment as just keeping feet on the ground, but they way the leagu is going if United dropped two I would not be shocked. I see Pennant was linked with Real Madrid  , can't be tru surely.

From daily mail:

Jermaine Pennant has priced himself out of an incredible move to Real Madrid as his wage demands forced a £3.5million transfer to collapse last night.

Madrid were expecting to announce the unlikely signing today after agreeing a fee with Liverpool for their reserve right winger, who has started only two Barclays Premier League matches this season.


Instead Pennant, who asked for £60,000 a week — almost double what was being offered by the Spanish giants — will now have to decide whether to accept a loan offer from Wigan or Stoke.
At the JJB Stadium he would be able to play for Steve Bruce again. He will then be a free agent in the summer when he believes he can command a better salary.

Although the salary demand is not remarkable in the modern game, Madrid —  who have just spent £20million on Lassana Diarra from Portsmouth — set a ceiling on their pay offer.

At 6pm last night, Sportsmail believed the deal was close to conclusion, only for it to break down two hours later when Pennant's demands emerged. Madrid will not negotiate on their basic salary offer of £1.5m-a-year.



what a tube

Of course Daily Mail should be taken with a pinch of salt.

I read that it was bollocks, and would imagine it is. Waste of space

Surely the big difference this year is that Liverpool have come through their dodgy November and December form, not only not hopelessly adrift of United and Chelsea, but a little ahead of them. Obviously there are no guarantees that Liverpool will pick up their form post-Christmas as they have done in previous seasons, but the United gloaters here seem to be convinced that they won't pick up their form under any circumstances. Let's not write them off just yet.

The Liverpool XI in full is: Reina, Carragher, Insua, Hyypia, Agger, Riera, Benayoun, Alonso, Gerrard, Kuyt, Keane. Subs: Cavalieri, Ngog, El Zhar, Mascherano, Babel, Lucas, Darby.

Good win today against a poor Bolton side. Keane starting to show his through worth now with two fine goals. 
Insua keeps impressing from left back.
Still top with Newcastle up next.

Cheers for the link.

Completely dominated that game. Pepe barely had a save to make. Insua and Riera link up well on the left. Keane took his 2 goals superbly. Hopefully Torres will be back on the bench for the Toon game
