I think this is an opportunity to mute the voices of the vicious critics and those that believe in Liverpool as long as believing does not include Liverpool being better than Arsenal, Chelsea or Man U. It is a tough draw but imagine the pain that would be brought upon these clowns of we disposed of Arsenal in the quarter final, Chelsea in the semi final and Man U in the final, assuming that by some stroke of luck and lightning striking twice or trice, Chelsea and Man U make it that far.
I totally agree with what you're saying, I'm sick of people suggesting we aren't good enough, or as good as Manure, Chavs and Arse. Our performances against the "big three" this season have been pretty decent, certainly we've been better than Chelsea this year head-to-head, and outplayed Man U at Anfield! But even if we were to draw the other clubs once we've disposed of Arsenal
and go on and beat them, you know they'd just bring out the same old argument: Liverpool are only good in cup competitions!
We're going to have to get used to the criticisms, because it all comes from the jealousy people have of our prestigious history, particularly during the '70's and '80's. Unfortunately, lots of critics who are around now are former players who got their butt kicked by our lads back then on a regular basis!
Sadly though, until our team hits the kind of form we had back then, people are always going to be on our backs at every given opportunity...
