Liverpool 2 - 1 Chelsea
(FA Community Shield)


Carra & Gerrard lifts The Shield

Liverpool won, the better team outdone the team with the monies - Chelsea!!

No matter what Jose Mourinho says about Liverpool's not being a threat to his multi-billion squad, fact remains. We have beaten them time and again & collected the silverware. That worm claimed that the team is physically not ready?? What's an EPL team when you are not ready for the toughest league beginning in 6 days' time??

Liverpool's new trial line-up looks good. Without Hyypia, Gerrard, Alonso & Bellamy in the 1st half; the squad looked solid with Momo Sissoko, Carra, Agger, Riise, Pennant, Garcia & Crouch in charge. We played a good game, stuck to our guns. Chelsea, on the other hand, looked lacklustre. No brillance from Terry, Lampard, Robben & gang. They must be missing Claude & Joe Cole. Ballack had to limp off the field early, due to an injury too.

The win certainly boosted our confidence, with the upcoming league game against Sheffield United & the return leg tie with Haifa for the Champions League (which would be played in Kiev).

Good start to the competitive season, Liverpool!! You Never Walk Alone!!
