CHARITY CUP : LET'S HEAR IT FOR CROUCH!

I had to entertain my family the whole day, thus made me unable to be infront of my pc until now. It's about 45 minutes to go before the Charity Shield cup start and since LFC has been active selling off some of our players we shall see some of familiar faces in the opposition line-up. Tonight's game we have Peter Crouch in the Portsmouth team. This is a second reason why we should rooting for Pompey. The first reason is simply it is Man.U. Any other team but Man.U is worth our support. We should also cherish tonight's game as it'll mark the beginning of the new season. After a beautiful summer (Euro 2008) with Torres emerged as the hero for Spain, this time around in the Premier League, Torres shall be our guiding light for our much-awaited title. So let's hear it for Crouch to rub some salt onto Alex Ferguson's ego.



Peter Crouch is out to get his Portsmouth return off to a flying start - by helping shoot down Premier League champions Manchester United at Wembley on Sunday.
The England striker returned for a second spell at Fratton Park following an £11million transfer from Liverpool.
Crouch is likely to form a little-and-large partnership with Jermain Defoe as Pompey look to build on their FA Cup triumph, and he cannot wait for the action to get under way.
He said: 'I've got good memories of the Community Shield - I scored the winner in it two years ago, when Liverpool beat Chelsea 2-1.
'I was right by all the Liverpool fans and ran to them - it was a great feeling.
'Sunday is going to be a really difficult match, but we will be fit and ready and hopefully we will give them a good game.
'I think we have had a good pre-season, so hopefully we can continue the way we have been and start the season well. It's the first game of the season and all the new signings are out.
