You know why it sucks to lose big matches? Because you have to endure the ribbing and worst of all, I don't even dare to read the newspapers for a couple of days after we've lost.
Newspapers LOVE to whack us whenever we lose. It's as if all the journalists in the world are jealous Liverpool fans. Incredible! I remember the Burnley match. Headlines after the loss read "United in Crisis" "Come back, Ronny" "United Blake-d"
Argh.. And when Liverpool or Chelsea lose?
"Aquilani's will win us the league" (NOT!)
"XXX set to face the wrath of the wounded beasts"
"Returning King (Joe) Cole will lift the gloom"
What happened to the witty headlines you guys could have come up with?
"Dont bother calling 999, the Kop is down!"
"Benitez Agger-vated!"
"Ess-sian!"
"Fergie: 'Cech-mate!'"
But anyway, on to my main point.
Sadly, the liverpool match confirmed what I've feared all along. Despite the wealth of midfield players we have at our disposal, none of them can carry a team like Stevie G or Lampard can.

Michael Carrick?
Benayoun could have been slurping a bowl of laksa and still zipped past him.

Scholes?
He's now so slow that even Titus Bramble can out-sprint him. See-rye-ears!!!

Anderson?
He needs to stop thinking he's Scholes by pinging cross-field passes all the time. Shoot more! Even Evra shoots more than you.

Hargreaves?
A flower vase. So fragile he's perma-crocked. Hopefully his extended holidays have changed that!

Get well soon Fletcher! We need you back.
