Liverpool 1 - 0 Arsenal


LUIS GARCIIIIIIIIIAAAAAAAAA !!!!!!

Just when I thought we were only going to get a point against the Gunners for our fantastic display at Anfield on Vday, Luis Garcia pounced on a rebound from Didi's volley & made it 1 - 0!! Great work by Didi too, for he made the volley that resulted in the rebound.

We dominated for most parts of the game, I was starting to get frustrated and desperate, why haven't we scored yet? Gerrard missed a penalty in the first half!! Heaps of chances missed by the strikers, what's happening?? I didn't think Rafa had anything else up his sleeves this time, a draw was destined. Then, Didi was brought on to replace Alonso, and Garcia was on for Sissoko. Our efforts paid off, Didi struck a powerful volley towards goal, which Lehmann saved, but he wasn't able to save from the rebound by Luis Garcia. 86th min, 1 - 0 to Liverpool, we are gonna WIN, surely.

The win was an important one, we needed all the confidence we can accumulate before the FA Cup tie against Man Utd. We have had a string of undesirable results in the league earlier, losses against Man Utd, Chelsea and Charlton. 3 points last week against Wigan last week and this win against the Gunners was vital to keep our pace with 2nd-placed Man Utd.

Bring on Man Utd, I'm now pretty confident that we can kick their asses at Anfield!!
