Danger: Stephen Hawking’s warning that there are aliens in the universe have come true and their interaction proved harmful as predicted. They took over Steven Gerrard this morning.
Didier Drogba could not have asked for a better gift from the Liverpool captain. Pepe Reina looked like a zombie had given away the ball. Given the high bar Gerrard set last season, in contrast this has been a nightmare. Fabio Capello must be having a few of those when he looks at match footage.
This could also be Rafa Benitez’s last home game. He might be in Juventus next season trying to help them recapture their Serie hopes. It all furthers the notion of a club heading to a crisis.
