I didn’t write this by the way (Steven Kelly ESPN) Let the supporters of other clubs have their fun. Arsenal may even win a trophy but will still speculate on what Arsene Wenger will spend and whether the next league campaign will fizzle out thanks to injuries -- like all of the others -- and whether getting eliminated from Europe at the first knockout stage every year can actually be called competing or whether its just turning up. Let Everton forget the three defeats that caused their Champions League bid to collapse. Let them play Oasis records when they are losing to Manchester City and then squeal like stuck pigs if someone reminds them of Rafa Benitezs small club quote. Let Spurs have rubbish videos on their official social media pages and forget they spent 100 million pounds to finish this season worse off than last. Let Chelsea fall for Jose Mourinhos schtick that they are in transition. Let Manchester United add another Steven Gerrard song to their already exhaustive repertoire, forget their decaying squad and absolutely wretched season and mythologise their latest wunderkind -- what happened to the unpronounceable one? You can even let Manchester City pretend that their title success amounts to more than winning the Tour de France on a Harley-Davidson, or convince themselves that UEFA will simply grow tired of slapping their wrists. In the end, none of it matters much. People have lost sleep, and not a little dignity, because Liverpool are back. Thats exactly as it should be, and on Saturday night/Sunday morning they will be losing even more. Because where this extraordinary club is concerned, you never know. Ever.
