After we were demolished by Spurs our players pulled up their socks and won two games in a row. Although both scorelines showed 2-1 we were unlucky not to have won by a higher margin based on the chances we had.
I woke up yesterday morning with my head spinning and wondering why some so called “Liverpool Supporters” are bitching. We won two games in a row, do you hate Liverpool FC that much? Over the years we have been proud that our club has been different from any of the others, we supported our players through thick and thin with our Kop Pledge. I am afraid to admit that it is changing and it is changing fast, we are quickly becoming just like any other club.
I am not pointing the finger at any particular group because I have seen and heard it from everywhere. From Reds living in Asia, the Americas and to Reds in Merseyside and also from season ticket holders. I have witnessed this first hand when against Manchester United this guy sitting next to me bitched through out the game about Dirk Kuyt, he even bitched after Kuyt scored a hatrick. What else could Dirk have done to please this fool? The bitterness is getting worse this season with reports of some sounding just like Evertonians.
Yes we are not perfect, the victories against Brighton and Wolves were not perfect by any means, we did make it hard on ourselves at the end however we did win both games after all. Coming back from a 1-0 and 4-0 loss to win two games in a row is a good comeback and we should all be proud of it. There are many positives to take back from both games like the fact that Stevie is back, Carroll played a very good game against Wolves and was unlucky not to score when his header rattled the post. And what about Charlie Adam creating the first goal? Before the game started I heard some bitching that he was in the starting XI. How many goals has Charlie created or scored so far? And the ones who think Henderson is a waste of money then they are wasting their own money buying Liverpool Merchandise. Jordan Henderson is only 21, he wears the captain armband for England’s under 21 and he is still settling in with his new team however he has already managed to score a wonderful goal for the Reds after just 6 games. Oh and then of course was the big sin that Kenny committed by substituting Suarez (and not Carroll) with 15 minutes remaining. Both Suarez and Carroll were having good games so I am not even going to waste my energy addressing this.
If you are not happy that Liverpool won than YOU ARE NOT A LIVERPOOL FAN OR SUPPORTER, if you want to be bitter than support Everton or Manchester United instead.
To all the Reds out there who stick by their club in sickness and health until death do us part I bid you a big YNWA.
