My favorite football (soccer) chants comes from Merseyside club Liverpool. Yes, it is awe-inspiring to see Anfield filled with fans singing "You'll Never Walk Alone" before every match.
But my favorite has got to be Liverpool's snide chant for Chelsea.
Fuck off Chelsea, you haven't got no history. Five European Cups and 18 Leagues, that's what we call history.
It's short and simple and really fucking awesome.
But the Reds haven't added to that chant in some time. The last major title Liverpool has won was the FA Cup in 2006. They were champions of Europe in 2005. But those 18 Leagues? That part of the chant hasn't been updated since 1990.
Liverpool is currently tied with their London rivals a top the Premiership standings. Liverpool is also undefeated in the Champions League.
Can it be? Are prospects high at Anfield? The European Double? Can they do it?
It sure looks like it. That expensive attack--Fernando Torres, Ryan Babel, Robbie Keane and of course, England's best, Stevie Gerrard, is finally gelling and looking to be an unstoppable force.
Granted, England's Big Four all have amazing offensive-minded individuals. But Liverpool is beginning to finally play like a unit.
However, it's a long, long time before we get to may.
But, If they keep this up, they'll be chanting "Fuck off Chelsea, you haven't got no history. Six European Cups and 19 Leagues, that's what we call history."
