    What is our current form? The West Ham game was sh*te, yeah, but let's not forget how good we were at the Emirates either.

    I'd take a draw, but I don't think the West Ham game is a proper reflection on our form so far this season.

    A half hour good performance against Arsenal is the only positive for this season, everything else has been a disaster mainly down to the clueless idiot manager.

    A draw at OT is generally a good result. No change with today's game.

    Yeah, let's just ignore the 6/6 points we picked up from the first 2 games.

    Look, I don't like BR that much, and he's done a lot of stupid sh*t this season (persisting with Lovren being the main one) but I give credit where credit is due, and after the first 3 games I was quite happy with where we were.

    Call me a balding middle-aged narcissist with a penchant for buggery, but I think O'Nelvr might do ok against Fellaini today.

    Bournemouth were robbed and Couthino was about to be subbed against Stoke. They were awful performances settled by poor officials and a moment of magic.

    Really REALLY want a good result today but can't see where its gonna come form. Hopefully Ings and Benteke can do the business but it really depends on the midfield supplying them.

    Less said about the defence the better.

    Edit: I am loving the misspellings of Elvron's name


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,328 ✭✭✭Magico Gonzalez


    lovren starting is pure defiant madness and it will heap pressure on the player.

    Makes you wonder is Rodgers being told to play him or just bad management.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 61,272 ✭✭✭✭Agent Coulson


    Lovren with a 30 yard screamer in Fergie time for the win.

    Hoffenheim have sold us Gok Wan's sister and called her Firmino.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,072 ✭✭✭Tipsy McSwagger


    A travesty for both clubs. Hundreds of millions spent and pure and utter shyte to show for it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 28,404 ✭✭✭✭Turtyturd


    Benteke has to be seriously questioning his move, he was getting better service at Villa.

    Absolutely scutter - in all my memories of this match, this is easily the worst first half I have ever seen between both, neither team look at all ar$ed...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,403 ✭✭✭mosstin


    You know I really don't think this was the death by football Brendan had originally talked about when he arrived.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,190 ✭✭✭✭Utopia Parkway


    Have defended alright apart from the usual brain farts from the muppets at the back. Our use of the ball has been utterly dreadful though.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,646 ✭✭✭✭Vicxas


    I've been watching Liverpool for years. And this is by far the most boring performance i have ever seen

    I am very worried for the season if this is our performance benchmark.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,537 ✭✭✭joe123


    My god we are so poor.

    Really disappointed by Firmino.

    He looks so lazy at times something I wouldnt have attributed to him. He chases down but when there is a counter on, you can see him jogging towards the goal.

    Don't want to single him out as hes been no worse than everyone else, but for a 30 million pound signing you would hope hed offer a spark. At least Benteke is holding it up well and making himself busy.

    Awful half of football.

    Lucas has been atrocious, 4 stupid fouls and woeful distribution. The rest have not been much better mind you.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 61,272 ✭✭✭✭Agent Coulson


    Looked like it at the end of last season and it looks like it this season as well the players don't seem interested in playing for Rodgers.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 40,059 ✭✭✭✭Harry Palmr


    Well it's clear what Rodgers has decided he wants from the game - one point. If Sturridge were fit he rip this Utd side apart but he isn't :(

    I can only hope that we see more intent after the break cos defending for 95 minutes and losing 1-0 in the 93rd is more than I could stand


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 61,272 ✭✭✭✭Agent Coulson


    Big Sam would be proud of Liverpool's long ball style.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,623 ✭✭✭googled eyes


    Majorly missing Henderson.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,308 ✭✭✭Pyjamarama


    People give out when we go away to rivals and go all out to win and call the manager naive... today we go out to try be compact and maybe sneak a goal and the same people give out...

    Now i don't give out about the first thing so i feel i can give out about the second. Shocked how bad we are with the ball and i'll echo every comment about Sakho not starting... confidence in the manager is waiving for the first time. I just don't understand the logic in not playing your best players.

    I do wonder if we had Coutinho, Sturrdige and Hendo would we be more aggressive in this game...

    Also lucas is waaay off the pace as he often is. Most overrated player on this thread. He was superb before the injuries took away his ability to get to the positions he knows he needs to be in. Has the brain but lacks the physical ability.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,223 ✭✭✭marklazarcovic


    firminho would need to wake up,looks a bit dazed


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,190 ✭✭✭✭Utopia Parkway


    United will win this 1-0. They've been poor but they will eventually get a break inside the box. Can't see how we're scoring anything at the moment.

    Bizarre player to pick out. He had one poor pass, other than that his distribution has been fine. The fouls are inevitable when we're pinning ourselves back like we are

    The standout horror shows have been Benteke & Milner
