Despondent
The title has been decided.
As I'm writing this, Liverpool are losing 1-0 to Manchester City with about 15 minutes to play. I don't care even if they pull a miraculous win out of the bag AGAIN this time. With an insipid attack and clueless defence, coupled with weak substitutes, and a goalkeeper who flaps whenever he is tested, even if they DO win tonight, they'll never be able to overhaul Manchester United like this.
Your team is losing 1-0, and you pull off your most effective left midfielder, subbing on a reserve team player. What the hell? This may not be happening right now if you didn't buy a star striker for 20 million and sold him after JUST 6 months, losing 8 million in the process.
I tell you money was involved, probably for the linesman, and for the referee. Vincent Kompany was OFFSIDE in the build up to Bellamy's goal, but the bloody linesman must have been too blind seeing $$$. And what kind of freaking luck is that, when the original shot is off-target, then the deflection takes place of ALL the freaking places it has to deflect out of reach of Reina. Seriously. When things like that happen, you have to seriously consider if the gods are on your side or not.
The referee too, not giving Kompany a bloody 2nd yellow card when he obviously deserves it, turning round to card El Zhar instead, it's effing BRIBERY I tell you.
This match shows you EXACTLY what's ugly in the world today; I was wrong, money CAN buy everything, even wins in the EPL. Looks like selling your soul is the only means by which you can win matches.
There's no justice in this world.
It's time to stop prolonging and drawing out the "title race", as much of a "title race" it is. You might as well be pitting a rabbit against a freaking snail for God's sake. Go fade off like you always do, Liverpool, stop giving us false dawns and go crawl in your hole to die like you always do every season.
Title PRETENDERS can't be a more apt description.
"You'll Never Walk Alone"... cos you'll never be champions. The rest of the Premier League will accompany you on that account.
