Stevie G's special
Saturday, August 25, 2007 english premier league, epl fixtures, liverpool, steven gerrard No comments
Late as usual. The Barclays Premier League 2007/08 (English Premier League) has had kicked off for the past 2 weeks now. Finally, we headed to a winning start to the season away at Villa Park. An own goal from Villa's Martin Laursen and a superb free-kick from Steven Gerrard sealed the match for us.
I missed this match on live telecast and managed to watch the highlight program few days later. The line-ups pretty much the same and our new boy Fernando Torres make his debut but the most significant changes made was the formation, 4-4-2 opted by Rafa instead of 4-5-1 which being used mostly for away matches last season. Rafa did do his homework!
Liverpool lead at half-time, thanks to an own goal from Villa's defender Laursen on the 36th minute. Gareth Barry converted a penalty after Carragher handled in the box on the 85th minute. While Villa fans still celebrating the equaliser, Liverpool had a free-kick just outside Villa's penalty box. Gerrard step up to took the free-kick himself and for the first time in many games, the skipper curl the ball superbly past Taylor's top left hand corner for the winning goal.
Watch the YouTube video of Steven Gerrard superb free-kick, plus goals from Voronin v Toulouse and Torres v Chelsea.

See you in court
Liverpool is taking Manchester United to court if the Red Devils continued to block Gabriel Heinze's move to Anfield. Rafa has matched United asking price of £6.8million for the 29 year old Argentine's defender but Sir Alex Ferguson reluctant to do business. Clearly, Rafa wants to make Heinze the first player to move from Old Trafford to Anfield since Phil Chisnall in 1964.

"A lot of clubs, in many different countries, knew what the situation was,"
"I do not know what the problem is. We made an offer, they rejected it. I know what they are saying to the press but everyone in the world knows they (United) signed a document."
- Rafa Benitez
The last thing we want to see is an ex-Manchester United player moving to Liverpool but if Rafa sees Heinze as the suitable cover for our left defence, we'll happy to accept him with open arms.

Liverpool target Giorgio Chiellini
Giorgio Chiellini, Juventus defender was rumoured to be the next Liverpool's transfer target. He'll be Rafa's back-up option if a move for Gabriel Heinze falls through. Juventus is holding out a £7million transfer fee for Chiellini, while Liverpool reported to have made a £5million offer for this Italian Under-21 captain.

"I am sure if something official came from Liverpool, it would be a tempting solution."
