I can completely understand that, as I myself am so very often guilty of passion-induced irrationality, but one thing I cannot stand is the entitlement I often see from Reds supporters. During the Torres situation a lot of the reactions and comments came off as "Do you know who we are?". I might be over reacting and didn't even want to post what I'm writing right now, but Dalglis' last comment just rubbed me the wrong way; even if it is true.

Asked how he will prepare to shackle Torres, Dalglish replied: "We'll just play against any player they put on the pitch. We're more important than any player they've got."
