I hate this guy

An imposting fraud:

Liverpool's John Arne Riise has been explaining why he burst into tears when he scored his penalty in the FA Cup Final at the weekend.

The Norwegian wanted to make amends after missing from the spot during the shoot-out in last season's European Cup final when he was injured.

Riise said: "I asked the manager to let me take the fourth penalty given what happened in Istanbul last year. That hurt me.

"I was carrying an injury at the time which meant that I couldn't blast the penalty there which I'd normally do. I had to place it and their keeper saved it.

"That was a nightmare, even though we won the cup, it still left me demoralised but I could use the power now.

"I know my penalty here wasn't a great penalty, but a goal's a goal. I blasted it down the middle and it flew in, and as soon as it hit the back of the net, I burst into tears. They were stinging my eyes.

"It was just so emotional after what happened last season. This was closure, a chance for me to get revenge and put things right."

I cannot believe that Hislop didn't guess that Riise would be blasting it down the middle. He should be fined two weeks wages for not staying up straight for Riise's kick. So freaking obvious.

The guy is a joke. He blames injury on having to 'place a penalty' which caused him to miss it. How could a professional footballer make such a statement? And its not closure. When he was really wanted, he missed in Istanbul.

I hate the fucker. Everything about him. I was pissed off in ways that he scored our first goal against Chelsea beacuse having seen him in the flesh, he is even worse than I imagined. Then when he scored he got all the plaudits. He is always there in the celebrations, right up the front with Gerrard and Carragher, like the big imposter that he is.
