Worth hoping?

When Liverpool visited Stamford Bridge, I was one of the countless Liverpool fans 'hoping' that Liverpool win, and in the process, continue/start their challenge on the Premiership crown. But the whole world knows what happened.

Ex-Liverpool greats, many pundits and Liverpool fans were saying, "We got 14 points against the big 4 last season. We have to improve on the home form against the lesser sides."

Well, now, if you dont beat the Big 4 this season, I don't see any point in thrashing the lesser sides at home. I know I sound skeptical after just one game against the Big 4, but that was Liverpool's strongest 11 and their strongest "bench" and that was not good enough. (Do not talk about Aquilani now)

I am going to come out and say what many Liverpool fans know, but maybe unwilling to admit. Liverpool, at present, are not good enough to win the title. Liverpool do not have the squad to win the title. And god, I hope they don't.

P.S. Stay tuned to find out why I hope they dont win the title this season.

- My view on our season so far.

Agree we dont look enough, but then so do the others. Do not throw in the towel yet.

We have a decent enough team to put up a strong fight. Sure, we don't have the depth of Chelsea, but we don't have United's mentality either. Last season, we picked ourselves up after 80 minutes and made sure we won the match right at the death. This season, we've just not set ourselves up to win. You don't see the desire in any of the players. And that's the reason they don't deserve to win.
