In fairness, if you look when he takes the shot theres very little on, Couple of Liverpool players in the box but behind Inter players. Gerrard/Torres would have done the same (especially Gerrard, but he'd have killed the guy with the shot )

sorry didnt mean to sound like houghton:eek::D

zAbbo · 11-03-2008 09:25PM

Yeah, I don't think Lucas is anywhere near ready for this level of game.

Gerrard back to the centre and bring out someone like Benayoun/Pennant/Crouch for either AM/RW/ST

eZe^ · 11-03-2008 09:25PM

If Kuyt was David Villa this tie would be well over. =P

He's here somewhere tho. Kuyt does something right and theres silence, but as soon as he gives it away when tryign to creat something, its a **** ball and Kuyt isnt tracking back. :rolleyes:

Bacchus · 11-03-2008 09:27PM

Poor game so far alright. I think Lucas is doing alright though. He's having a quiet game but he's getting the challenges in and keeping the ball moving.

Torres is kinda by himself up there. Gerrard is nowhere, up front or back defending.

If Torres was a winger he'd have squared the one he hit to the keeper and it might well be over to . Lots of if's

If Reina was Robinson it'd be over aswell, but not in the good way.

Sherifu · 11-03-2008 09:28PM

Almost a manc type pox goal there.

emc2 · 11-03-2008 09:28PM

great save....

Inter have no natural wide players which is really helping liverpool.

Just like all my other posts so....:D

Tusky · 11-03-2008 10:38PM

Not a great performance but I don't really care. We're through! Great play by Aurelio and what a goal by Torres. 26 for the season now.

_blank_ · 11-03-2008 11:01PM

Yeah, classy goal by Torres

Unearthly · 11-03-2008 11:05PM

Comfortable win there for Liverpool

invincibleirish · 12-03-2008 12:07AM

I was just thinking the same thing myself!!

No doubt you would prefer your club to go out to Italy to play an inferior team and play extremely exciting, flowing football yet loose 2 nil and really do your chances of progressing to the next round some major damage? Oh ****, that is exactly what happened last week with Everton minus the exciting flowing football. I think the performance was described as a disaster by one pundit with the "only positive thing being that they have not conceeded a goal" being used at half time..

Quite an enteraining match tonight too..

jesus_thats_gre · 12-03-2008 12:14AM

To whoever posted the odds for a 0 - 1 scoreline with Torres scoring, cheers!! I owe you a pink

no it wasn't.

chances wasted by Milan and little offered by Liverpool. Torres' goal was the only thing he did all night, wasted posession any time he got the ball.

also an "entertaining game" lasts 90 minutes; I think the only people watching after 60 minutes were Liverpool fans.

ironingbored · 12-03-2008 12:22AM

If only Liverpool could play 11 against 10 every week how many premier leagues would they have won. Inter were very harshly done by in both games. If one or two of Inter's chances had gone in things would have been very different.

I cannot understand why know-it-all dunphy thinks Italian football is on the brink. Before Liverpool won the CL in 2005 (having seen Milan capitulate after 30 minutes of scintillating football), the previous English winner was in 1999. Didnt hear anyone in the rte studios bemoaning the demise of english football during that time. In the last 15 years how many english winners of CL?

Just have to hope Barca can redeem real football and win again in 2008.

Mes che un club!

Let's let Liverpool play 11 against 10 every week and maybe then they'll win the Premiership.

Exactly what i was thinking listening to all his commentry. He's so frustrating

I'd have to agree. I thought we were awful with the ball but pretty good without it. If it was any other team I probably wouldn't have watched the whole game.

Dont agree with the Torres comment though. He was pretty isolated and did ok with the ball. Almost scored in the first half as well.

Ray 'Hindsight' Houghton

BRILLIANT! I love it. I hate his commentary. Try and count the amount of times he says 'What he should have done there' in a game. Bloody annoying. Of course when Ray was playing he never made a mistake.

and if liverpool had scored from all their shots on target against barnsley (20+) they would have hit double figures

thats football, liverpool had as many chances as inter tonight, torres and kuyt had great chances in the first half to score.

if the ref had spotted vieira's clear handball in the first leg it would have been even worse for inter

inter were truly awful over the two legs and liverpool never needed to get out of second gear tonite.

Liverpool did't score in either game until Inter were down to ten men. Their passing was utter ****e and their best chances came from Inter players slipping on the turf rather than any creativity on their part. Will be found out very soon. Liverpool don't have a third gear.

Having said that Torres finished very well. Along with Gerard (inconsistently it has to be said), he's Liverpool's only quality player.

Unearthly · 12-03-2008 12:58AM

Is there a slight possibility you may be anti premiership and don't have the maturity to give credit where credit is due?

Reina, Carragher, Agger, Alonso, Mascherano, Gerrard, Torres.

Gerrard inconsistent ? 36 starts, 19 goals, 15 assists.

I'm not saying we have the best team in the league. I'm not even saying we played well tonight but your comments are ridiculous.

Kimbot · 12-03-2008 01:02AM

The sending off tonight IMO was fair, two bad tackles, first one on Kuyt was just stupid and the second was pure reckless on Lucas!

Haha. I'm always saying that about Houghton. If a player shoots and misses he should've passed it and if he passes and the other player misses he should've taken a shot himself. :rolleyes:

ROCKMAN · 12-03-2008 01:15AM

Torres goal was a fantastic finish,
They have a real gem of a player there

The red card was a joke .

In fairness it was 2 yellows. MAybe he could have not booked him for the 2nd but it was worth a yellow. It was late and a bit furthe up his leg could have injured him.
