Owen extends Reds lead - GO LIVERPOOL

11-02-2002, 02:17 PM

Michael Owen made it 11 goals in 11 starts for Liverpool as they extended their lead at the top of the Premiership to seven points with a 2-0 win against West Ham.

The England striker showed his range of skills when he made the breakthrough after 27 minutes.

But he rode his luck with his second as he mis-hit the ball and it drifted into the net in the 56th minute.

Liverpool remain unbeaten in the league this season. In fact they have only lost once in their last 29 Premiership matches.

That's championship form and the Hammers, despite a brief flurry in the second half, were never really in it.

Without the injured Paolo di Canio, they struggled to break down Liverpool on their own patch.

Yay, go Liverpool! Funny story:

We're in England, and I buy a Liverpool jersey (without my dad's knowledge.) I put it on, and he tells me a story of how, when he was like 7, he got his @$$ kicked by a Liverpool fan, cuz my dad supported Leeds.

This is FABULOUS news!! How did L'Arsenal go? Did they manage to battle their way out of their losing streak? *fingers crossed*

Are you ol' boys talking about that furrin' game with the funny looking black and white ball? Football indeed! Where is your sense of irony and the sublime?
The American game; now THAT'S football.

Are you talking about the silly game with the wusses in protective gear and the rugy ball?
You should be talking about OUR football, THAT's football

I didn't hear any comments on the game Liverpool played a few days ago, did you guys miss that one ? I'll do it for ya then. To make a long story short: Valencia tought them a lesson in effective football.

Just trying to liven things up with some American bashing. I actually played and coached SOCCER for over 20 years. My younger sister was on an under 17 team that came in 4th in the World Games in Taiwan back in the 70's. I guess this is the wrong place to say I like Manchester United?

The Gooners play tonight Mr Flaming Geenie - take the opportunity to be smug while you can - it makes our eventual triumph all the sweeter in the end

Nice to see a few Man United supporters here! Arsenal are away to Fulham on sunday a quite diffucult game so as a Man U supporter I'm hoping they drop a few points. Man United won today 2-1 at home to Southhampton courtesy of an excellent winner by Diego Forlan so I'm pretty happy. Annoying Liverpool won though as they are still eight points clear of Utd.
