The game was over by the 40th minute. 5-0 against Villa and it's now 1 point between us and Man U (although they have a game in hand).
It was a great team performance especially in the context of the title challenge. Both Man U and Chelsea lost on Saturday. I was worried that we may not capitalise on the advantage and slip up again. But it was not to be. The moment Kyut scored the first goal, I knew then that we would win it big especially since Villa's confidence was at a low. What is frustrating is that our momentum will be disrupted by another international break this week. This is the third time this season when we had to break our good run in due to international friendlies or world cup qualifiers. We play Fulham next. They will be well rested and on a high after beating Man U convincingly at home. We need to win every game now if we are to maintain the title challenge. Man U still have a game in hand and if they win that, the gap will be restored to 4 points again.
I hope Gerard and Torres return injury free from their international duties. The players need to be focused and the next 2 months will be crucial.
We need the 19th league back in Anfield.
