Liverpool FC won their penultimate game at Anfield for the 2010/2011 season and took 5th spot in the Barclays Premier League meaning if they won all of their remaining games they'd have the chance to finish in a European spot which was looking increasing unlikely after the loss to West Brom a few weeks ago. Goals from Maxi Rodriguez, Dirk Kuyt and Luis Suarez earned the win in which the scoreline didn't tell the full story …
Finally, a problem worth having
It has certainly been a rough couple of years for Liverpool FC. First there were the unwanted owners doing their upmost to ruin the club and then came the infighting at all levels; the boardroom, the coaching staff and players.

Dirk Kuyt, my player of the season
Since Dirk Kuyt’s signing for Liverpool in the summer of 2006 he has gained many plaudits but has also come across his fair share of negative press.
For Liverpool fans he has been nothing short of brilliant since the £10million pound move from Holland.
But this season again he has really risen above the pack and is no doubt one of the first names on his manager’s team sheet each week.
Supporters of other Premier League teams will continue to …
