| After the win over Everton he said this (or rather, didnt): Here is the full transcript ... Q: A deserved win Avram? Grant: 'Yes.' Q: What particularly pleased you about the performance? Grant: 'I'm pleased.' Q: What in particular pleased you? Grant: (after an eight second delay): 'I don't know.' Q: Is it a relief to win here? Grant: 'Yes.' Q: You seem lost for words by the performance. Are you more satisfied with the performance or the victory? Grant: 'Both.' Q: You seem distracted. Do you have a problem? Grant: 'No problem.' Q: Is there an issue? Grant: 'No. I'm ok. I have nothing to say.' Q: Do you have a message for the Chelsea fans? Grant : 'You represent the Chelsea fans?' Q: They must believe you are still in the title race, do you have a message for them? Grant: 'No message.' Q: Does this result mean you are back in it now? Grant: 'I don't know.' Q: How many steps have you climbed to undertake this press conference? Grant: 'I don't know.' Q: You seem less voluble than usual. Is it because of Sky TV moving the game to a Thursday? Grant: 'Maybe it's because of you. I don't know. I am ok.' Q: You are saying that you don't know if you are still in the title race? Grant: 'No.' Q: Is it easier to say nothing Avram? Grant: 'I don't know what to answer. It is a good question. I don't know what to answer.' Q: Is this because of Sky? Grant: 'No. Sky is ok. I enjoy watching them.' Q: Is it a protest against newspapers? Grant: 'No. Why?' Q: Why else would you come in and refuse to answer our questions? Grant: 'I answer every question.' Q: You are two points behind Manchester United and you don't know if you are still in the title race? Grant: 'No.' Q: Have you told the players that you don't know if you are back in the title race? Grant: 'What I tell the players is something else. You want me to tell you what I say to the players?' Q: We just want you to answer the question, really. Are you in the title race? Grant: 'I don't know.' Q: Would you not like to gain some positive publicity for the result rather than this bizarre silence? Grant: 'I'm sorry. You can write whatever you want and I can answer what I want.' Q: Do you feel under pressure to deliver a trophy. Is that the reason for the monosyllabic answers? Grant: 'No.' Q: Are you upset? Do you feel you have been misrepresented? Grant: 'Maybe I have said because it is a bad season.' Q: Did Michael Essien faint? Grant: 'He had some problems, but he is ok.' Q: Michael Ballack? Grant: 'Injured.' Q: What's his problem? Grant: 'Ask the doctor.' Q: He's not here Avram. Grant: 'Well call him then.' Q: Have you ever played the yes/no game Avram? Chelsea press officer: 'This is going nowhere. Let's end it.' |

| Who cares about Avram. It was a good result for Liverpool, so hopefully they'll roll over and let Fulham have the 3 points on Saturday. |
