Liverpool - Reading

The game yesterday was really frustrating, not just because of the way we played the last 20 minutes or something like that. I have a subscription for the television company Viasat to be able to watch the Premier League, but now they aren't allowed to show any of the PL games on saturdays at 4 pm (swedish time). Because of that I'm supposed to have free access to the games on their online service - Viaplay - but it didn't work, so I had to stream the game. The stream was shit and my irritation grew every minute and it got even worse because of the way we played. Now I'm just happy that we finally got a win at Anfield, and the three points are really important. Everybody said that "It's not an easy game", but it was probably one of the easiest games this season. I'm happy for Raheem, he deserved the goal.

2 Weeks

In two weeks I'm going to get on a plane to England. I can't wait! My friend Josefin and I are doing a project work about LFC, so we'll spend two weeks in Liverpool to work with it. One of the things we are going to do is to interview one of the academy players. I won't tell who it is until after we have done it. It'll be two wonderful weeks and hopefully we will finish the work quite quickly so that we can relax and just have fun.

I'm a bit nervous about the traveling because it's the first time we travel alone and we are going to fly from Östersund to Stockholm to Amsterdam to Manchester and then take a bus or the train to Liverpool. I guess we'll manage to do it, but I'm still a bit nervous (and of course excited too).

Being Liverpool

I really enjoy watching Being Liverpool. It feels like you get closer to the team and the club, because you get to see more things than what is normal. It's well made and very american. I don't know what I think about that because usually I prefer british tv, but it's good.

I have only watched the first two episodes because we are a bit after in Sweden. I'm glad anyway because I can watch it at a swedish tv channel at 10 pm every friday with swedish translation. That's above my expectations. I have some lovely friday evenings to look forward to^^

Decisions - Small Ones But Still

I don't really know what to do with this blog. I want to keep it, but then I'll have to write something every now and then. I don't know if I want to write about my every day life here, about football or mix as I feel like. The reason why I never write is because it feels like every time I'm going to write something here it has to be perfect, and I don't have time or energy for that all the time.

I think I'll go for the mix and try to write as often as possible. It's good for my english to have this blog and hopefully I will find more inspiration and will to write soon.

Transfer Window

I know that many Liverpool fans feel disappointed with our signings this summer. I agree that we need a good clinical striker who can make use of all the chances we create. But when I see what a lot of people write on twitter, really bad things about Rodgers, Ayre and the owners, it pisses me off.

I'm quite happy with our signings, especially Allen and Sahin. It already feels like Allen is one of our key players and he didn't need any time to settle in. He gives a lot of balance to the team and he is used to play the way Rodgers wants us to play, unlike most of the other players.



One thing that I'm not pleased about is the whole Carroll situation. Since we didn't buy any striker yesterday I think we could need him. He is in form now and I think he would have done well if he had got the chance. I wish him good luck at West Ham. When I look at our team now I also wonder why we sold Kuyt and Bellamy. We didn't get a lot of money at all for them and I think it would have been better to keep them.


I don't have any opinion about Borini or Assaidi. I hope they will do well and that they will score a lot of goals.

I'm glad we sold Adam, he tried but in the end it was obvious that he isn't good enough for the level the club wants to play at. I wish him good luck at Stoke.
