Thoughts of a Kopite: Chelsea v Liverpool

First things first… YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS! GET IN!

After Saturdays amazingly wierd day of football, 3 points for the reds would be that little cherry on the top of icing. Fernando Torres scoring would of been the burnt bit on the underside. It wasn’t the latter in this case.

Kenny got the tactics spot on, This new system that we seen against Stoke in mid week seemed to just counter react against anything Chelsea threw at us. Looking at the stats without watching the game would give the assumption Chelsea were the better side and at times they were, but they were unable to break us down. We took our chance, Scored it, Defended it. The basics of football really. Goals win games. Not shots off target 😉

Torres is obviously the biggest talking point, making his debut against his former club and playing like the so called ‘old Torres’ not the ‘original Torres’ was a joy for every Liverpool fan. The lad has incredible talent, but since World Cup 2010, that talent seems to of faded away. I’m sure we will see the best of him in a blue shirt eventually.  All the best Nando, but 50M for a dud, is starting to look like we got the better of the deal!

Meireles has got a bit of oomph about him since Kenny has come in, and he is starting to become one of buys of the season ( probably until suarez of carroll get on the pitch) but the longer he keeps this form going the better for us.

4 wins 4 clean sheets 12 points, you can’t really complain about that. Hopefully we can have a couple of 5’s in them stats come Saturday!
