The last two weeks have been like a dream for all Liverpool fans after seeing their side beating Real Madrid 4:0 and progressing to the Quarter Finals of the Champions League; thrashing their arch-rivals Manchester United 4:1 for the first time in over half a century; and last but not least making Aston Villa look like amateurs, putting five goals past them in the successful process.
The more amusing and entertaining it was to read Paul Merson's blog, his criticism about Benitez and his continuous squad rotation and doubts about Liverpool's consistence and laud and prediction of Manchester United's prevailing dominance.
Of course, he was not coming from nowhere with his thoughts and evaluations, but it just shows you can never know what is around the corner. No one could have predicted United's collapse and shambolic team discipline and display. No one could have dreamt up Liverpool's team click-connection and spark that overhauled and outstripped their opponents over the last couple of weeks.
As a Liverpool fan myself, it all feels like a dream, too good to be true, I do not want to wake up from. Thank you Paul Merson for making a fun, amusing and entertaining read. Thank you Liverpool for some unforgettable, quality football.
