Hero for the nightYahoo! We are through to the group phase yet again! The owners must have been very relief to see Kuyt send us through with a goal after another laboured effort against Standard Leige.
Well, Rafa can count Dirk Kuyt as his lucky European charm for his latest exploit. Known to be a exceptionally good marksman when playing in the Dutch League, Kuyt have somehow failed to live up to our standard. However, he made up for his lack of goals with loads of untiring runnings. This morning's goal is just a sweet reward for our workhorse!
So, another assault on the European stage is on the card. What worries me is the laboured performance to produce goals against well organised teams. Sunderland, Boro and now Leige has proven to be tough cookies for us. Luckily, the lads kept on pushing til the last minute.
What spoilt the night for us is the loss of captain Gerrard to a groin injury. He hasn't been 100% and needs to be operated on ASAP. Might miss our blockbuster game against ManU.
Just hope he'll be back soon and back with a bang. As for now, let us all savour another European win.
You'll Never Walk Alone!
