I was going to write/rant about Liverpool's current misfortunes and call for you-know-who's head. If some simple mathematics were applied on the way things are going (a mere 16 points after 13 games played), it looks like the best we can hope for this season is mid-table mediocrity. Yes, John Henry and the Fenway Sports Group (that's what NESV call themselves nowadays) might have a vision of an Arsenal-esque Liverpool but if things stay the way they are, Liverpool could well end up in the mould of a different London club. A club that's more familiar with our dear old manager. But, in the spirit of Eid al-Adha, I'd make my one sacrifice (of sorts) i.e. to cease to write about the issue at hand and save my words for another time. In the meantime though, I'll leave you with a video of one of Liverpool's best players, who for some very odd reason, just happens to be playing for Juventus this season...
He'd certainly come in handy these days, wouldn't he? To rub salt into the open wound, there seem to be rumours around that say Juventus have a GBP12m buy-out option as part of his loan deal plus, they actually got to offload a player they didn't want (Poulsen-who else?) for GBP5m. The management at Juventus deserves a pat in the back and big, fat bonus for pulling this whole deal off. It would have actually been funny if the joke wasn't on Liverpool.
Anyway, Eid Mubarak to one and all. Hope you have a good one.

Yeah...a big sacrifice. Also, seems like yesterday was International Day for Tolerance as well! So, I decided to bite my tongue on the right day. Just for the day though.
