what a football world we have nowadays...
It is definitely not a great week so far. First of all, Reds had a disappointing performance in Porto; then, there are bad news that Xabi and Danny will have to be out up to six weeks for foot injuries; and meanwhile, the fiasco in London actually is not a good sign in my opinion.
I am quite glad that most Red fans did not simply blame Rafa or players for the last two draws, especially the forumers on RAWK site, most of whom always stay rational even after a worse game. But, unfortunately, I stop by BBC's 606 discussion board later. And I can't believe what I have read. For example, here is the worst one:

Actually I think losing Alonso is a blessing in disguise. He has been shockingly bad this year and I was secretly hoping he would pick up an injury as Benitez would never drop him.
Now we can play Masch and Gerrard as our central midfield pair, as it should be. Let's face it, Masch is far better defensively than Alonso and is not far away in his passing abilities so we really have no need of Alonso. (we should sell him for big bucks when we get the chance)
I knew that there are some Alonso-bashers, but I still can't believe that they are cursing him in this way. Are they really liverpool fans? I doubt it. Haven't they seen the hoof-ball playing in Porto when we missed Alonso in the midfield to organize and balance the whole team? It seems they totally forget what Alonso did for our team in the past three years, and how he was great in his first two seasons here.
So, it makes me think more after reading the news about José Mourinho leaving Chelsea. I don't like him at all. But it just sounds not right to sack a manager who brought you two league titles in 3 years. Too much people have short memories in current football world. You are not allowed to have a dip form for a while, because some guys will cry out sack you even only after losing 3 games...
From this point of view, I am very glad to be a Liverpool fan, because KOP sing all the time no matter of winning or losing a game. Keep it in mind if you are a liverpool fan, too:
