LFC 1 – 0 Man City
By: CSD | May 4th, 2008
It may be a fruitless victory, but it’s still a victory. The score really doesn’t do the match justice. Liverpool dominated Manchester City for the majority of the match, but failed to capitalize on numerous opportunities.
The away crowd did a good job of showing their support for Sven-Goran Eriksson, waiving pictures of the manager as well as banners that said “S.O.S. Save Our Sven.” That reminds me of the Dubai S.O.S. banners that could once be seen at Liverpool games. Maybe Dubai can buy Manchester City as well.
A sad day as we might have seen the last goal by Fernando Torres. He has one more chance left to leave us dazzled for the summer, but for me this was it. All that’s left to do now is speculate on who’s going to be bought or sold this summer and then say, “I miss watching the Reds…remember how awesome it was watching the Reds and how awesome it’s going to be when the Reds come back?” I kind of stole that line from Kevin Smith…oh well.

Not much to say about the game really. Bug shame that it was a non-event, although good to see that we got another victory, and good that the team played nice football, in the second half at least. Was fitting that Torres scored Liverpools first and last goal at Anfield this season. It’s been a hard season what with all the off-the-field stuff, and i must say i’m looking forward to the break. I will sure miss watching Fernando Torres though!
A small note about Insua:
Glad he played yesterday; he is now past the stage where playing for the reserves is going to help him, he’s too good for that standard and will get lazy unless he steps up now. He is most definitely good enough to play half a season with Aurelio and then we can assess which is the better bet.Once this boy’s confidence gets up I think he’ll turn out to be the best natural left back we’ve had at the club for 30 years. (I don’t include Lawro or Stevie Nicol in that as they weren’t really left backs). That’s how good I think he is.
