We took the wrong step years ago

Ah. Here it is:

Could this be Liverpool’s year?

Delusion? We got it:

Kick-off was delayed in Liverpool’s friendly versus Lazio on Friday because of pressure on Anfield’s turnstiles. Supporters were drawn by the first home outing of a partnership that makes them think this time it will be different, that between Fernando Torres and Robbie Keane.

And it takes Ferguson to talk sense:

Ferguson, more interested in talking about Chelsea and Arsenal, could not raise much enthusiasm when Liverpool’s name was broached in a discussion about the title. Liverpool have not even scored against United in the league since September 2004, and lost seven out of eight games in Benitez’s reign. They have finished an average of 19 points off first position during those four seasons and Ferguson’s view, formed by the agonies of running Leeds United so close in 1991-92, before eventually making United champions a year later, might be that before winning a major you have to contend for one first — to borrow a golfing analogy.
