da roleta: As the final whistle rang out at Anfield last week supporters looked on in disbelief.

Ever since their Carling Cup win at the end of February the Merseyside’s have been a downward spiral Kenny Dalglish’s £100 million summer spending spree has yet to pay dividends as he finds himself eight points adrift of former club Newcastle who they face on Sunday at St James’ Park. Dalglish has come in for criticism in recent weeks and will be desperate for his side to alleviate the pressure with three vital points on Tyneside.
