"Time goes by, life goes on, and all I can think of is why you're gone."
Hari ini aku berduka lagi. Patah hati untuk kedua kalinya di waktu yang tidak berjauhan. Tapi dengan kasus yang ... berbeda.
16 Mei 2012. King Kenny, salah satu legenda yang kukagumi di PECAT oleh klub yang sangat ia cintai. Well, it hurts me so much, Aku cuma ngerasa kalau legenda seperti dia tidak berhak mendapatkan perlakuan seperti itu. Satu trophy Carling Cup yang ia persembahkan mengakhiri paceklik 6 tahun tanpa trophy bagi Liverpool FC. Disamping ya aku tau, performa Liverpool yang begitu buruk di EPL, belum lagi keangkeran Anfield yang sedikit memudar karena diruntut kekalahan. Tapi percayalah, itu bukan kesalahan dia semata.
Ada banyak faktor dibalik 'buruk'nya performa Liverpool. Kenapa aku mengutip kata buruk disana ? Karena Liverpool tidak sepenuhnya buruk. Dua kali masuk final dan salah satunya menjadi juara melebihi pencapaian dari club rival yang banyak dipuja banyak orang -Man ***-. Cuci gudang bukan jalan yang tepat untuk mengangkat performa Liverpool karena itu berarti pemain harus menyesuaikan diri dengan orang-orang baru di tubuh Liverpool. Belum lagi dana yang harus dikeluarkan dalam jumlah yang tidak kecil. Tapi sudahlah, mungkin manajemen disana lebih tau tentang club.
Berikut interview terakhir bersama King Kenny
"It has been an honour and a privilege to have had the chance to come back to Liverpool Football Club as Manager."
"I greatly appreciate the work that Steve, Kevin, the players and all of
the staff put in during my time and feel proud that we delivered the
Club's first trophy in six years winning the Carling Cup and came close
to a second trophy in the FA Cup Final. Of course I am disappointed with
results in the league, but I would not have swapped the Carling Cup win
for anything as I know how much it meant to our fans and the Club to be
back winning trophies."
"Whilst I am obviously disappointed to be leaving the football club, I
can say that the matter has been handled by the owners and all concerned
in an honourable, respectful and dignified way and reflects on the
quality of the people involved and their continued desire to move the
football club forward in the same way as when they arrived here.
"I would like to thank all of the staff at the Club for their effort and loyalty. I said when first approached about coming back as Manager that I would always be of help if I can at any time and that offer remains the same."
"Finally, I want to put on record my heartfelt gratitude to Liverpool's fans, who have always given me and the Club their unwavering support. Without them neither the Club nor I would have achieved anything."

Getting speechless and my tears can't stop falling :")
Thanks for everything, King Hero Legend. Dedication, contribution and love for our beloved club. Semoga sukses untuk karirmu selanjutnya. You will always live in our heart. Long live the king !
