Notes on Liverpool’s win over Chelsea

UEFA Champions League semifinal, Leg 2, Liverpool 1, Chelsea 0 – Notes on a scorecard:

  • C’mon, admit it – You wished you were in Anfield when Dirk Kuyt’s kick went past Peter Cech.
  • If anyone happens to see Frank Lampard, tell him his team needs him. Ask him to bring Joe Cole.
  • No one asked me, but I’d take Steven Gerrard over Lampard every time.
  • In journalism circles, it’s a rule to avoid using the word “unique.” After all, only one thing can be unique. That being said, Peter Crouch is a unique weapon.
  • If you had to pick one guy to start a team with, you could do far worse than Michael Essien.
  • Coming soon: “The Pepe Reina Story” starring Jeremy Piven in lifts.
  • Even with the match meaning everything in the world, it was still getting pretty tempting to go walk the dog.
  • After he’s done on the pitch, Dirk Kuyt needs to start a detective agency. The name would look too good on the door.
  • As Didier Drogba goes, so goes Chelsea. That sound you hear is Drogba not going.
  • A team with a salary of about $400 trillion, and it all comes down to Geremi.
  • Arjen Robben and Shaun Wright-Phillips must be wonderful company for Jose Mourinho to leave them on the bench so long.
  • Quadruple this.
