as for gambling, i don't do it anymore. i would rather put that money towards some good organic food than waste it on sport. plenty of players can get injured. plenty of bad refereeing decisions and sop forth can ruin a team, so i will not gamble money on that.
i am not implying liverpool are going to win the title at all, my argument was the fact that too many discounted them already with such ease when the problems were similar to man utd... unattractive football for various reasons... after one game man utd are suddenly deemed to be the class act. it is likely they will go on a good run now, but nothing in football can be taken for granted.
@ french OG... i agree. and plenty of questions should be put to benitez because his formula is not working. he has the players and can pick an excellent team sheet, but is the tinker of tinkers and at the moment it does not look rosey for liverpool. He either swallows his pride and picks the best 11 or ruins liverpool's best chance in years of landing the title with the players available.
