3 matches in, and I'm convinced

It has been an eventful start to the season to say the least. We followed up the win at Villa Park with an important win at Toulouse in searing heat, drew with much STYLES with Chelsea and produced a workmanlike performance over Keano's Black Cats.

Our football is not perfect yet. I am sure as the season goes on, the performance and quality will improve as the team play more together. The one most important aspect we have improved on is our desire. The whole team seems to be fighting for every ball, fighting for everyone. The new signings have been immense. They may have not shown us their full array of skills yet but they have shown an abundance of enthusiam to fight for the Red cause. It's refreshing to see Torres, Voronin and Babel tracking back whenever the opposition gets the ball. As we used to say back in the 80's, our best defender was Ian Rush. Defending starts from the top and seeing stars like Torres willing to harass and track back whenever needed, it shows the immense character in the Liverpool squad this season.

Man Utd are stuttering, Chelsea may be leading the pack now but I am sure they will be looking over to see where we are and Arsenal will probably lose some ground if they play too beautiful football and yet struggle to score. I have always been a believer. But this time around, we have added a lot more steel into our resolve. It's refreshing to win matches when you are not at your best. That's what champions do. We have the look of it this season. Now, let's push on and makes things happen this season.

You'll Never Walk Alone! Keep the faith you Redmen! :0
