Wow, one defeat for Liverpool and the shit is already starting to get stirred up. Lovely.
Firstly in response to u-borat: yes Chelsea fans have grew exponentially ever since Abramovich took over. My close mate became a bandwagon supporter for this reason too. But I can't criticise him, he's my mate.
And whether Keane is the right man for Liverpool remains to be seen. You can argue about having similar type strikers and having a CF and a SS and all that, but the truth is that all systems requires tinkering. It may take time for Keane to adapt to this new team's playing style. The Keane + Berbatov partnership worked very well for Tottenham, and there shouldn't be any reason why it can't work with Torres at Liverpool.
I personally beleve championship winning teams are those that have greater variations in attacking options. Last season we had the Tevez/Rooney/Ronaldo combination, and look where that got us. Now we have added Berbatov and we see another style of play, with Berbatov more involved in the buildup, allowing Rooney and Ronaldo greater opportunities to get in on goal. Is that what you call traditional centre-forward play? Not really. But it works, no doubt. Should injuries start to creep up towards the latter parts of the season, we can adapt to it. This is the main reason why Berbatov was bought.
I'm glad Keane isn't doing as well as he could, but Liverpool lost the game after Keane went off the field. He got subbed and they lost shape. Then come little Pavluychenko to steal victory.
Add this with Citeh's loss to Bolton, what an amazingly good weekend.
