All Stoked Up - Liverpool 0-0 Stoke

Top five slot just out of reach
Five at the back was Kenny’s way
Seventh home league draw
Pulis hailed a “brilliant display”
No Red typhoon to topple
The Potters house of cards
Kuyt with the best of the chances
Shockingly wide from eight yards

Race for fourth far from over
History provides some reason
Sixth at twenty games four years ago
Reds still finished third that season

14.01.12
