Everything's fine with the team, and that's good. I know there will be more of such storms, turbulence, but no matter what, we'll weather all odds. I firmly believe that the team has come out stronger and more gelled after this incident, and we can only get closer.

I'm rather down right now. Milan Baros is out for three weeks. Now tell me what is Liverpool going to do with Neil Mellor and Florent Sinama-Pongolle as their strikeforce? Do me a favour, Benitez. Play Pongolle and Garcia up front. Kewell, Hamann, Alonso, Riise in midfield. Hyypia, Traore, Finnan and Josemi in defence. Kirkland at goal. Cisse, Gerrard, Baros, Smicer. God, we need these people back. I hope Benitez manages to snag Morientes from Real Madrid. He'd be doing Real a favour, ridding it of ONE superstar.

Since we're on the topic of soccer, I'm just appalled at Wayne Rooney. His temperament is just.. unacceptable. So what if he's the youngest player to score for both England and in the League? Does that warrant such behaviour? The fact that the black armband he threw on the ground was in commemoration of late Liverpool great Emlyn Hughes makes me even more infuriated. What right does he have? I can't believe Owen defended him, saying that he didn't mean to show disrespect to Hughes. The fact is that he is taking advantage and riding on his status, thinking that it's ok for him to lose his cool as an when he likes. People like him will meet his fall one day - when the success gets to his head.
