Brendan Rodgers has revealed how a Liverpool fan's letter inspired this season's Premier League title bid. Speaking after his players were confirmed as runners-up to Manuel Pellegrini's side, the Liverpool manager reflected on how a letter written by a supporter named Ben served as motivation for his side's charge to the top.
"I read a letter to the players on the first day of the season from a supporter, who told us about getting into the top four and the pride he has in the club and not to just think about fourth, but think about winning," he told his post-match press conference.
"Probably at the time, the players and maybe the staff thought the letter was maybe a bit far-fetched, but I truly believed that we could progress. I read the same letter back again today, and all the words that went back into the players' minds were the same at the beginning of the season. I think now the word that has come is 'belief'. We now believe that we can be up here challenging and all the young players will be much better for that."
You could have both, Toure scoring or Kompany lifting the trophy, whilst below them Gerrard's watching the title dissapear whilst lying down having his nap or whatever he was doing there.
Better still, every kopite will have to buy the DVD since its their best Premiership season ever, and will have to see that cover agin and again and again lol

What an utter phoney he is.
Does crying with happiness count? shed a little tear after united at wembley 09 to be fair (possibly partly due to the fact i wasnt there and wished i was and lots and lots of beer)
Well they've had nothing else to sing about since 1927, so let them have have their moment of fun, it's just so ironic taking the piss out of a team not winning the league when the nearest they've been to success is a tour of our trophy cabinet. Smalltime club, [Poor language removed] manager, [Poor language removed] owner, [Poor language removed] fans.
Can someone lock this? I enjoy good natured piss-taking as much as anyone but this isn't good natured and I'd hate to see the decent set of Geordies (and Paul) leave here because of it.
There's some spiteful and petty bollux being posted in this thread - to what end folks? It's done gone and finished!
In the words of the immortal Fab 4 " Let it be".
What a set of poor language removed they truly are. Hopefully you sell all of your best players and give Pardew a new 8 year deal.
You'd think with the Sky cameras on the game, nothing to play for and a huge profile that they'd use the opportunity to protest against Pardew and Ashley. Instead just churned out your stereotypical Soccer AM/Stevie G songs.
I'll honestly [Poor language removed] delight in their collapse down the leagues. I hope Ashley gives the club to Joe Kinnear.
Shame they don't have the class of Sunderland to be honest.
spent the whole [Poor language removed] game singing about us. i hope mike ashley stays for years.
Cheering when it was announced a billionaire bankrolled team had won the league. Bunch of small time, delusional knobheads.
Some of the [Poor language removed] in this thread is a [Poor language removed] embarrassment.
Locked before we lose yet more decent posters.
