I must apologise for my comments last night about Man United winning the Champions League. I was very, very drunk and was very looking forward to Roma knocking them out of the Champions League. When they went 3 - 0 up inside the dirst 20 mins I was seething and they were playing exceptional football.
I am also very disapointed Chelsea got through, Valencia started the brightest but as we have seen so often with Chelsea this year, they play poorly and win.
I will not hide the fact I am very disapointed that these 2 English teams have made it through. I did not want to face Chelsea in ANOTHER semi final and the thought of the Manc's awaiting us in Athens could be a life -defining moment - either a ultimate high or the lowest of the low come midnight on the 23rd May 2007.
Man Utd played exceptional, Chelsea are looking like an unstoppable juggernaut. There destiny's this season seem intwined into every competition, the League, F.A Cup and the holy grail - The Champions League. I was worried. I am worried.
However there's nothing like a calming face like that man in the first post of this thread. I sit there and worry about Shevvy, ROnaldo, Rooney and Drogba and then realise who we have got at the top of the helm - the golden man - Rafael Benitez. This guy has made a career out of spoiling parties, Real Madrid and Barcelona in the La Liga, Chelsea in the semi's 2 years ago, West Ham getting victory snatched away in thew final minute at Cardiff. Would I ever of thought any of that could of happened? Probably not. Rafa's the gaffa round here and my faith should no0t be waivered at all by what are rivals are doing. We're Liverpool Football Club and were the greatest team in England, and come May - the greatest team in Europe.
Again.
For the 6th time.
You'll Never Walk Alone.
