念經看球賽

看 David Usher 的文，才知道自從 Capital One Cup 大勝修咸頓以來，利物浦比賽了16 場賽事，其中有一半是沒有入球的。這一季球隊出現了有史以來入球最少的紀錄，也有可能出現自 Bill Shankly 以來的最低排名。這 16 場比賽，我只看了我們贏 5:4 對 Norwick 那場，真的驚險萬分。由於看這球賽時，我同時做念經功課，一共念了 20 次的《心經》，倒有平伏心情的作用，較能平常心去看。照例的每到緊張關頭，就念「南無觀世音菩薩」，相信很多英國的球迷，看球賽時也一定祈求上帝的保佑。祈求觀世音菩薩的加持保佑沒甚麼出奇。

David Usher 指當前四是奢望時，也許應專注於盃賽。喜歡看 David Usher 的分析，他很冷靜，不像其他喜怒形於色的球評家。高普的到來，帶給球迷不少的希望。希望現在的低迷，只是過渡期而已。

明天聯賽對 Sunderland，Lawrenson 對利物浦的預測一貫的加了感情分。希望他這次的預測成真。

Liverpool v Sunderland

Liverpool created a few opportunities against Leicester and they could not do much about Vardy's goal, but their defence continues to offer up too many chances.

The Reds have won once against Premier League opposition at Anfield in five matches since the end of November and they keep conceding goals.

Jurgen Klopp needs a left-back who can defend - Alberto Moreno looks good going forward but he is one of the worst defenders I have seen.

So it is difficult for the rest of the back four to be a solid unit, and also puts the goalkeeper under pressure. I bet Klopp is tearing his hair out.

Sunderland gave it a real go against Manchester City at the Stadium of Light on Tuesday, but their away form is far less encouraging - only Aston Villa have picked up fewer points on the road.

Lawro's prediction: 2-1
