Feeling disoriented? You may not be alone. It seems that many Liverpool fans are a little lost right now. Lost between expectations, transitions and reality. We are the discombobulation nation. Far better under Dalglish than Hodgson, but behind Newcastle in the table.

Confidence in the Red camp should be quite high following Liverpool’s progression to the quarter-finals of the League Cup on Wednesday night, with two goals from Luis Suarez giving us victory.

While going forward with quality cannot be achieved merely with a gung-ho attitude, even mediocre teams can try to play with an excess of attackers and see how the ball lands.
