Not So Keane


It was a right end after all. Not like some blue team which got stuck at the South.

There were highs and there were lows.
Thought fielding Gerrard was a masterstroke to help him overcoming non football matters and he was rampant befitting his status as Captain Fantastic. Liverpool toyed with Preston, continuing the same dominance over Bolton and Newcastle. Chances were aplenty but......

Keane missed all of them. Dunno what to make up of his performance. It's blowing hot and cold but the misses at the weekend were unbelievable. It's alright if it was saved by the keeper but he made no contact with the ball whatsoever. Total miskick.
He was not alone though in my bad book. Babel too played like shit for a player labeled as the next Titi Henry. More like Titi Camara, the Reds old flop.

And Torres was back, scored his 1st FA Cup goal courtesy of Gerrard of course. This is bad news for Keane, looks like he'll have to warm the bench more as the old partnership of Gerrard-Torres was rekindled.

Gerrard's pass to Torres was a masterpiece. DVD stuff. Like to see more of these in days to come.

Stoke, beware. We'll come to get you.
