Liverpool 21 pts GD -3

How much did we spend again ?

the difference is a striker mate...

Yeah. That's the difference.

If only Liverpool had West Ham's forwards who scored on Satuday. Caroll and Downing I think their names are.

Anybody know anything about them? Might be worth a bid in January.

A win today would be nice, another one that makes half their fans disappear out of the soccer forum again would be a nice bonus.

Its not. He played 17 1 sub appearance & had an average 7.05 rating which is very good.

Of course you can't go completly by stats but he is not as bad as you are making out.

Sakho is a great passer of the ball......

All joking aside he hasn't got a good run in the team, I would like to see more of him before I'd judge. Seeing that he is fit now should be the time we'll see more of him, thats if he was a BR signing and not a committee signing or whatever nonsense reasons are doing the rounds for BR not picking players he signed.

He's been ok anytime I've seen him. Need to see more.

Lucas cost £5m & moved from Brazil as a young back up player.

Henderson showed plenty more in his first 18 months than Sakho has.

Henderson was pretty crap throughout his first season. Looked like a lad that didn't want the responsibility of being on the ball.

Most annoying thing re Sakho for me is he seems like a good player, but as you say bad signing.
A case could be made that it wouldn't matter what defenders were signed. They'd look poor for Liverpool which is a very poor reflection on the manager.

Kolo and Sakho should be the first choice paring for the rest of the season, except we're now three at the back so I suppose Skrtel is the third leg.

If Rodgers is the man to lead us forward he is going to have to sort out the defence, we conceded 50 goals last year, the only "big" team to concede a similar number was spurs on 51 and they recieved a few hammerings.
We are on course to concede more goals this season I believe, we scored a ridiculous amount last season and we won't score similar numbers probably ever again in the league. There in lies my problem with Rodgers at the moment, I can accept we are nowhere near as good going forward but surely look to seal up the defence some what? He seems to have not much interest in doing that and if he is he's going an awful job of it. If he doesn't start shoring up the defence there's not much reason to persist with him as we will get nowhere conceding around 50 goals a season in the league.

The match threads should be restricted to day before opening to cut that crap. Mud slinging from each side when the bigger supported teams are playing is getting very personal.

The new scum. Classy.

shamrock55

Congratulations, you lead with such a brightly shining light.

Look back over your posts in the last couple of days, you might notice a theme.

Team does ****; manager gets criticised. Strap yourself in baby - this might get worse before it gets better (or is resolved). You can't control or prevent rightful criticism.

Unfortunately we could be just as likely to do a gunners.

Oh i agree, i wasnt calling arsenal scum btw, what i ment was have arsenal taken over from utd as a rival the way fans are constantly sniping at eachother

bad2dabone

The sniping is tiresome.

A draw today against Arsenal would be a decent result. I have a feeling we will get destroyed with their counter attack.

A draw would be a good outcome. Fixtures after that are a lot more forgiving.

Has the team not been leaked this week?

I think win is on the cards today and we could really do with it.

Those that want to do this will just go into each others super threads. The match thread funnels the bile and oneupmanship into one streamlined turd. Closing them and the lord of chaos will rule.

The standard of posting in this thread even has dropped dramatically.
