Liverpool and in particular Robbie Fowler, gave manager Rafa Benitez cause to celebrate on his 46th birthday!! A composed, albeit controversial goal scored by the Toxeth Terror settled a stop-start match in which Liverpool were reasonably comfortable...
Reasonably because the ever dangerous Morten Gamst Pedersen had a left-foot right wing corner nearly curl into the goal if Blackburn's skipper Ryan Nelson hadnt attemp to head it in!!
Overall, it was good win and sets us up nicely for the FA Cup match against Chelsea on a high...7 straight wins (6 in the league and THAT thumping FA Cup victory at St. Andrews!!), 22 goals scored(I might have left out a goal or two...doesnt matter, since we've scored too many!!) and only 3 conceded!!
Plus there was extra cheer for many of us Kopites as Rafa's body languange and comments seemed to suggest that "GOD" will be at Anfield next season!! The key moment during Rafa's post-match interview that suggested so was his closing statement..."It will be good for Robbie, it will be good for me, and it will be good for the fans!!"
