HISTORY MADE AS FOR THE FIRST TIME; LIVERPOOL ARE FAVOURITES TO WIN THE PREMIER LEAGUE



#EPL/LIGI SOO

As a staunch Liverpool fan; allow me to say this: whether we win this season or not; we remain grateful for one of the best seasons ever. If winning the 2005 epic and historic comeback on the Champions League was massive; then I bet lifting the Premier league cup this season- 2013 to 2014; will be more than memorable.

Why you ask? Liverpool’s 3-2 victory over City this past weekend got British bookmakers reacting to the victory by installing Liverpool as title favorites.
“today is an historic day as Liverpool have never been favorites to win the Premier League title since its formation over 20 years ago,” said a spokesman for William Hill.

Some are terming it a three horse race. Whereas every league features great matches and every season features decisive games; it is rare for them to be both.
If Liverpool are to win their first Premier League championship in 24 years next month; and even if they don’t; they will always have this beautiful specimen of a football match 93-2 win against City) to remember their season by.




And what a season it has been. Never have I seen an enthusiasm in Liverpool fans in Nairobi as I have this season. Team jerseys have been worn proudly and the season followed devotedly. And what a season it promises to be. Having established themselves as league leaders of the Premier League with only four games left to play.
They have beaten their most credible rivals in the title race and now have just four wins between them and a  historical first Premier League title.
What, they might ask, is four games when you have already win ten in a row?

In the emotional post-match huddle that Gerrard convened on the pitch, the Liverpool captain called upon his team-mates to do the same at Norwich on Sunday.
What Gerrard did not mention was the opponent Liverpool face when they next return to Anfield on 27 April. Chelsea’s visit to Anfield is set up perfectly by this result. Gerrard refused to talk up the possibility of Liverpool’s first title since 1990 after leading his side to a 10th successive victory.

“That win means so much, that is such a big result for us,” he said, “but nothing is ours yet. The important thing now is not to get carried away with that result.”
 Finally, I am not sure whether I will be safe if I advise our “Red brothers”- the Red Devils’ fans to prepare to hand over the title; nonetheless, please do!
