You don't need to win pretty, just win

Gerrard & Torres obviously deserve all the plaudits for our win against Derby, Gerrard for his persistence and Torres for his sheer skill. Both of them have rescued us many times so far this season and we'd be in a lot of trouble without them. But I'm surprised by the level of negativity surrounding our performance, it might not have been great, but who really cares ?

Any other team which has won the premiership has done so while winning ugly many times, that's the mark of the eventual champions, to be able to win when playing poorly. In previous years we would lose so many of the type of fixtures which we've been winning this year. You take the good with the bad and as long we win then happy days ;-)

Oh but its so much nicer when we do win pretty.... as much as i still hate to admit it, i dont think we can win the premiership this season, should be very close though.

What no hope in your heart there Jessica ?
Getting ready to walk alone are we ?

We are very close to the top, our game in hand could leave us only 6 points behind The Scum.
BUT we still have to play Chelsea, The Scum and Arsenal - all are away games.
I think that will be a big banana skin for us, but you never know, we just might do it.

I know those 3 away games could be problematic, but its manageable, we're too close to the top to throw in the towel any time soon.
