Last home game of the season ends in defeat

Liverpool's final home game of the season ended in a 2-0 defeat to Tottenham that had its fair share of controversy surrounding, none other than, Howard Webb.

Tottenham's first victory at Anfield since 1993 takes them one point above Liverpool into fifth place and they now hold the ace to qualify for the Europa League. With one game remaining in this season, Spurs look to be favorites to seal the final European place next weekend against Birmingham City while Liverpool play at Aston Villa, who beat Arsenal 2-1 today at the Emirates.

Liverpool started the match slowly and it was Tottenham who gained a foothold in the game. A ninth minute corner provided Van der Vaart with his opportunity when the corner was cleared to the edge of the box and his strike, took a small deflection off Glen Johnson as it, sailed over the head of Pepe Reina. The goal happened to be Van der Vaart's 13th league goal in what has been an impressive first season for the attacking midfielder.

Howard Webb awards a controversial penalty

Liverpool began to put Tottenham under pressure as the second half came to a close but they never had any clear cut opportunity. To be fair, Tottenham defended well and looked very solid at the back.

However, the game didn't end without controversy as Howard Webb has come under heavy scrutiny after his decision to award a very soft penalty in the 55th minute to Tottenham. John Flanagan appeared to make contact with Steven Piennar outside the box as they collided shoulder to shoulder. Momentum was probably Flanagan's second worst enemy in the situation, Webb being number one, as it made the challenge look a bit worse than it was. Luka Modric made no mistake from the spot though as he took the penalty well to give Spurs a 2-0 lead.

In the end Tottenham deserved their win. Liverpool didn't play any where near what was expected and they never really created any substantial chances. Tottenham was able to soak up any pressure Liverpool created and managed to shut down the dangerous Luis Suarez.

Dalglish accepted Tottenham was the better team and they deserved their victory,

"They probably played better than us on the day," Dalglish, who signed a three-year deal to remain as manager earlier this week, told Sky Sports.

"I don't think Pepe (Reina) had too many saves to make, but then we never did enough at the other end either to make it decisive for us"

He also disagreed with Webb's penalty decision, as has many, but didn't elaborate on what he told Sky Sports,

"It wasn't even a foul so it doesn't matter if it was inside or outside the area, but for me maybe it's best to do a Moyesy and not come out to do a press conference."

In other news around football, West Ham have been relegated after blowing a 2-0 lead to lose 3-2 to Wigan, who now have a life line heading into the final weekend of the season. Chelsea and Newcastle drew 2-2 at the Bridge, Fulham won 2-0 over Birmingham City and Rangers claimed the Scottish Premier League title after a 5-1 thrashing of Kilmarnock.

Dalglish: Lucas deserves a song from the KOP

Lucas playing for Liverpool last season

Liverpool manager, Kenny Dalglish, believes Lucas finally deserves his own song from the famous KOP. He has called on the supporters to reward Lucas for the brilliant form he has been in this season.

Lucas wasn't exactly loved by the supporters when he first arrived and he looked set for an exit in the last couple of years, but the Brazilian has really turned it around and can be considered one of Liverpool's players of the season for his fine form.

Kenny talked ahead of a pre-match conference and said: "He's been in good form since I came in here. He's also signed an extended contract and is playing really well. Him and Jay (Spearing) have got a really good partnership in the middle of the pitch."

"It would be nice if supporters could think up a song for Lucas as a reward for the fantastic work he has done recently. I don't know what it could be but there must be something there for him."

"He's only a young boy as well. He's played lots of games for a young boy. He's really developed. He's in the Brazil team and that's a good enough testament for us."

"What he has done for us is very important and he's been brilliant since I came in. You can see he has belief in his own performances. You can see that getting in the Brazil team and being settled - his wife having a  little boy - means his whole world is happy at the moment and that is reflected on the pitch."

I won't lie, I wasn't the biggest Lucas fan when he first arrived and at times I did give him a fair share of stick for his performances. However, I'm really impressed with how well he has matured and improved over the last 18 months, which have been a really tough 18 months around the club, and he has also shown he can be a leader. I for one will be looking forward to whatever song the KOP can think of as they are always brilliant. Congrats to Lucas on his baby boy and the best of luck to him in the future. YNWA!

Rosaria Connavo

Cannavo currently dates retired footballer Christian Pannuci who played for numerous clubs including Milan, Real Madrid, Inter and Roma. She was also on the arm of the short tempered Antonio Cassano. Many people might not know Cassano but for those who do might question whats a girl like this doing with him but then again you might still be mesmerized by her looks. She’s famous in Italy for her skills as a ballerina and her appearances on a number of their very strange television shows. One includes trying to balance herself on a board while wearing very revealing clothing, can't go wrong with that. I could of chosen a number of images to display here but some were too revealing, so go on and have a click down below.

BREAKING NEWS: Dalglish signs 3-year contract

Kenny Dalglish: Liverpool's manager

Kenny Dalglish has signed a new 3-year contract that will see him in charge at the club until the end of the 2013-2014 season. Dalglish has taken Liverpool from 4 points above the relegation zone to within a win of securing European football next season.


Liverpool have been in fine from under Dalglish who took over in January after Roy Hodgson was sacked. At that time Liverpool were 12th in the league table and just above relegation. Since then Liverpool has climbed all the way up to 5th and 2 points above Tottenham, who they play this weekend at Anfield. If Liverpool beat Tottenham at home they will secure a spot in the Europa League.


Steve Clarke, Kenny's first appointment when he arrived, has also signed a 3-year deal along with Dalglish. 


"It's a great reward for the work that's been done, not just by me but Steve, Sammy (Lee), the players and the people on the terraces and everyone else inside the club, including the owners," Dalglish told the club's website

"We said at the outset if we stick together and work together then it makes it easier to produce better results and I think that is the main reason why results have improved."


Liverpool will look to carry their recent from into next season and push on for a top four place. Dalglish will also be looking to improve the squad knowing he will be the clubs long term manager. If Liverpool's current form is anything to expect next season then anything is possible.
