Liverpool 5 – Luton 0

My first proper post!

Really surprised Benitez put out a damn strong team against Luton. I guess he really wanted to win this game.. or he wanted to win this game in order to save his job! With the recent admission by the co-owner Tom Hick… that he ‘courted’ the services of Jurgen Klinsmann’s leaves a sore taste in my mouth… no to mention Benitez’s. I’m sure Rafa is really pissed off with the whole issue, but he’d rather not comment on it.

32 shots at goal, compared to 2 (by Luton) was quite impressive indeed! If you didn’t watch the game, you would have surely thought that it was raining goals by the first half. NO!! Surprisingly Luton defended really well.. or the Liverpool players didn’t have any of their shooting booths on!! Babel was impressive on the left wing. I think Pennant did a good job on the right. Torres, well, he didn’t score.. but contributed to the all round play. It’s only towards the last final minute of the first half, Luton defended to high, Gerrard capitalized on it, passed to Torres and he to Babel… and Mr Babel couldn’t miss to hit the left corner.

Second half was better. Liverpool more relaxed. Nuff said. Gerrard scored 3 goals with Hyypia helping out.

I feel that the man-of-match was Babel.

Babel’s goal..
