Liver Bird has 9 Lives too

Update

Champions League Draw

Group D

• Liverpool
• PSV Eindhoven
• Olympique Marseille
• Atletico Madrid

First game away at Stade de Velodrome 16/9, 3 days after MU. Last season the Reds whacked them 4-0.
Nando granted his wishes to 'belasah' his former club, Real's poor cousin Atletico Madrid.
The fixtures look tough on paper huh...but as always, the Reds will prevail.

Liverpool got out of jail once again...ermm in 4 consecutive games actually.
This time, it was Dirk Kuyt (pic) who spared the blushes, sidefooting a teasing Ryan Babel's cross in the 118th minutes, against a valiant Standard Liege for whom Mbokani was superb....the next Drogba maybe minus a silly haircut..wow, 2 minutes away from the dreaded penalties.

In stark contrast to PP by-election, Goliath was nearly slaughtered but for some divine intervention.

I was livid, on the edge of my couch potato sofa really...cursing another awful display.
Or has Liverpool perfected the art of winning ugly? It seems so lately, winning games when they are not at their best....and scoring in the last 10 minutes in every game so far. Suppose with the current form, it's only a matter of time before somebody inflicting the 1st defeat, when they finally run out of luck. Villains at Villa Park this weekend perhaps?

Except for few players, they rest were pathetic, El Nino included.
Keano? What can I say? Another insipid play...looks like a misfit...boring stuff.
El Zhar looks promising though.

Nevertheless, the Reds are through to CL proper but with a cost, Stevie G will be missed for 15 days as he undergoes a groin operation. More on the CL draw later.
MU on 13/9 looks certainly daunting now if he doesn't recover in time.

And I thought only cats have 9 lives....Liver Bird certainly has it too.
