As there's not many matches left my story is gonna be match reports instead of monthly reviews.
LIVERPOOL 1-1 PORTO (KUYT) (EUROPA LEAGUE SEMI FINAL 2ND LEG)
Well Liverpool won their match away last time against these 3-1, so all they had to do was defend their lead, and they did! A 4-2 aggregate win putting them through to the Europa League Final with Benifica!
Rafael Sobis scored the first goal where he smashed in a shot from 35 yards out! You could see it on Lewis Edward's face that he was worried. However when Dirk Kuyt equalised minutes later, a big sigh of relief happened. Edwards said,
"I'm very delighted that we have got to the final. it's a fantastic achievment, now we need to win it!
I went for the defensive approach in this match even though I was at home. I knew they'd put me under heavy pressure."
LIVERPOOL 0-1 BLACKBURN
Last week when I said that the Tottenham result was the season defining result, no it wasn't, this was. Absolutely terrible. Even if I do win my two games in hand, Man Utd only have to win one more and the title is theirs. ****!
And guess what? It was Chucho frickin Benitez again!!!!!

For the rest of this season I'm gonna do match reports instead of monthly reviews 
Chelsea 2-1 Liverpool (Welliton)
The only positive to take out of this was Welliton's goal, as he ended his goal drought, but other than that, we were poor all over the place, didn't win our battles or headers, didn't get stuck in but at times we got too stuck in, didn't put them under any pressure whatsoever. A bit dissapointed that I've lost three on the bounce, but that's the way football is I guess.

LIVERPOOL 'HAMMER' IN A 1-0 WIN (TORRES)
Well, I didn't hammer them, just wanted to use that phrase
, but on all seriousness I'm pleased to finally get a win!
The pressure for the title is on now, look at the league table!

LIVERPOOL 2-2 THE MANCS (TORRES 2)
This was my second last game of the season, but drawing it has ensured that I cannot come top. It was a great performance by Fernando Torres. We came back from behind twice. I'm not too dissapointed with the draw, the odds were against us, and the pre-match prediction was against us too.
The minimum position we can come is 3rd, but even if Chelsea do slip up 1-0, then I'll have to win against Ipswich 22-0. C'mon we can do it <)
LIVERPOOL 2012/13 SEASON REVIEW
COMPETITIONS:
English Premier Division: 3rd (Media expectation of 9th)
FA Cup: 5th Round (Expectation of 6th Round) :S
League Cup: Third Round (No Expectations set)
Europa League: Winners (Quarter Final Expectation) (A)
European Super Cup: L 3-1 (No Expectation set) :'(
PLAYER OF THE SEASON:
Jose Manuel Reina, achieving a final average rating of 7.24.
MATCH OF THE SEASON:
Liverpool 2-0 Man Utd. Always nice to get a win over Man Utd whatever team you are
GOAL OF THE SEASON:
Sotrios Kyrgiakos with his beautiful free-kick.
GOOD POINTS:
Well I'm happy with my final league position, as I didn't even expect to come in the top 4 myself, so it was a brilliant achievment. Also, going unbeaten against Man Utd and Arsenal in the league this season. And how can I not say about winning the Europa League?
BAD POINTS:
Well I'm very dissapointed about how I slipped up in the league. I was on course for winning in, but it always happens to me- my team always do worse towards the end of the season.
Also, my strikers didn't really score much and were very inconsistent. It's really starting to **** me off how Welliton has a finishing stat of 18 and hits all his shots at the keeper, yet Stanislas who has a finishing of 13 gets it in all the time!
PLAYERS PICKED IN PREMIER DIVISION TEAM OF THE YEAR:
Pepe Reina in goal, and Torres as a sub.
When you look at the table, it is worth taking note of Notts County's epic fail in the league.
