Liverpool Vs. Chelsea Premiership 19/08/2007
Sunday, August 19th, 2007 by EoinIt’s Liverpool Vs. Chelsea again. Yes that’s right, the season is only entering it’s second week and we are already facing one of the games that will decide the title. If Chelsea win Andy Gray will be explaining to us why Liverpool’s season is over and Sky will spend the next week crowning the champions. If Liverpool win the next week will be filled with talk of a three horse race. It’s sensationalist, but in reality, it’s not that far from the truth.

His focus was on the FA Cup after Liverpool got knocked out of the Champion’s League in 2006 and his focus was again on the Champion’s League in 2007 when Liverpool made it all the way to the final.
If Liverpool beat Chelsea tomorrow then maybe, just maybe this could be the year all Liverpool fans have been waiting for.
