comment on the article

A Shawshank(s) Redemption indeed! Congratulations to Rafa and the team for a wonderful effort in the face of adversity.

Whilst the result makes no immediate impression on the table positions, Liverpool have answered their critics and produced the goods against a troubled Chelsea side when it mattered.

Two excellent goals in the first half from Kuyt and the much-criticised Pennant sealed victory for a Liverpool team recently battered by Arsenal storms.

Now the challenge has been set for Arsenal to keep up with a victory against Man Utd.

Bring it on.

Well done, you actually managed to beat us without cheating. Do you remember our first game this season when Drogba scored that superb goal. would you like to comment on that or do you just have a bias opinion.

liverpool is going to loose to chelsea both at home and away.pennant goal is not a surpriseat all after been humiliated by arsenal for two consecutive times so what do you expect they have to save their face.
secondly chelsea were no in good shape then most of their key players are benched due to injury.
thirdly that was the welcome back of Cech after injury get what am saying?

dont forget that we played the final 40mins of the game with only 10 men, and STILL managed to hold out for the win.

I love the way we can grind out results and never ever give in, it the quality that will pay dividends come the end of the season

Grind out is right - very boring.

Ho Ha bullshit ha What planet are you on, wishing Utd were playing Chelsea while we are still in this form. you mean the form that has seen Mourinho and Cech receive two awards for the past month and for all the wins we have had on the bounce. Get back to school, dinner break`s over.
