Utter, utter shite

1. Starting system that relied on Villa playing poorly. Shit
2. No control whatsoever in the first half. Shit.
3. 1 clear chance created all game. Shit.
4. Cissokho attacking more than Johnson. Shit.
5. Cissokho's control over his own legs. Shit.
6. Johnson's lethargy. Shit.
7. Surrendering the momentum for no reason on 65 minutes. Shit.
8. Coutinho's form. Shit.
9. Giving endless free kicks away in our own half for no reason. Shit.
10. The lack of urgency. Shit.


Fuck off. Buy a DM. We needed at least a backup in the summer, we have nobody coming through in that position, Lucas is average these days and seemingly injured. Get it done, fuck Salah if our funds are so limited.

Buy 2 leftbacks and a rightback as well. Or recall Wisdom.

so i just the the liverpool penalty.

How the hell are you guys calling it a dive. keeper has only himself to blame. he came out recklessly and put himself in a position where Suarez had to react to avoid contact. If a player has to jump out of the way to avoid contact then for me it is a penalty.

Just like Grosso vs Australia and Eduardo vs celtic

A lucky point, didn't deserve any. Rodgers looking for a cm is probably right cause Gerrard is awful.

No way we're winning the title, but top 4 is still on, although beating Everton will make that so much easier.

So tactically naive in the first half.

Brendan needs to accept that he has to stop trying to shoehorn Gerrard in the team.

I don't expect us to beat Everton. They are a better team than us.

Anyone else think Gerrard fucked up Suarez' shooting chance right at the end of the game? Looked like he took the ball off his toes.

Yeah. Gerrard seemed to be moaning at Suarez for not giving it him.

We need to see another camera angle to see if Suarez should have laid Gerrard through/let him shoot.

Well that was a bit shit, some points from the game:

Rodgers was tactially naive today, his selection was crazy
Coutinho needs dropping for a while
Our whole defence except Skrtel was shit
Gerrard isnt a DM
Suarez was crap
Only good attacking players was Henderson, Sturridge and Sterling
We need another midfielder or we will fade away in the new year.

He was more effective 2nd half though. But he's stifling Hendo for sure.

According to reports, Tottenham are eyeing up a move for Napoli striker Goran Pandev and could be successful should they agree a deal with the Italian club because of the striker’s eagerness to leave.

Seriously though, its like he's fucking drunk. After every touch he requires a second or two to figure out where he's just kicked the ball and retrieve it.

Enrique and Flanagan can't come back quickly enough. Neither Cissokho nor Johnson deserve to be starting tbh.

The Suarez dive was the same as Welbeck v Lloris, both times the keeper has been reckless and more or less forced the referee to give a penalty. Guzan didn't need to come for it, should have just let him go to the line.

Hitch plz, Rodgers' tactics were away in the first half that's true.

Our lack of clear chances is a problem to do with Coutinho, if he doesn't play no one is there to make the magic, but he's playing so poorly at the minute that he's giving the ball away too much.
We lost momentum because there was a stoppage from injuries, that isn't an issue, not getting the pressure back is.
The free kicks were soft, ref gave some and not others, pretty inconsistent.

A defensive midfielder is absolutely a priority, but would be cause concern for Allens role in the team.

Steven Gerrard is why I think England may struggle at the World Cup. Other players are best suited to play yet Gerrard will play because he's captain.

We could end up with a second half of the season like Kenny did if we aren't careful.

Not making a signing in midfield with Lucas' injury isn't an option now IMO.

Yeah it was a dive but Guzan shouldnt have been there. Cant really complain.

I am still perplexed why we can be the better team away at some good teams and yet utter shite at home.

Baffling.
