Well, since everyone else is doing it.



The goal is that we're still in that screenshot area by the end of the season.

Agreed. I wouldn't be so quick to write off a player who's scored a goal every 1.6 games he's played in since 2004. He looked awfully dangerous to me at times, give him a month or two to acclimate himself to the league and his new teammates. He will score goals.

We shall see or else he will be another Schevchenko and I am sure Chelsea fans remember how that turned out. I am a fan of Eto'o but I wouldn't expect much out of him.

The biggest game of the year will always be the next one for Liverpool with the way they've started. The schedule sets up nicely if they can take care of business.

Jonjo Shelvey pulled off a rare feat by assisting on all 4 goals in a 2-2 draw. Man of the match for sure.

Bless him for taking it upon himself to make that match entertaining as heck. That was nice of him.

Props to Michael Laudrup for keeping him on the pitch. Many other managers would have hauled him off at halftime. If he subbed him that could have potentially ruined him.

I thought Eto'o was pretty good. Yes, he missed chances but he was always in the right position, something that we can't holds true for Torres. He can also stay on his feet which is more than Ba & Torres can say they do. Howard was a stud in between the sticks that day.

Good job of getting a point out of it for Liverpool. Big clubs struggle traditionally out of this particular international break so getting a point vs a very game Swansea is a pretty good result IMO.
