this is almost unbearable week after wek of stubornness from rafa, its really getting on my nerves, a dodgy formation that IS NOT WORKING, and he just will not change his ways...

Cattermole off for Zenden. Looks bad for Cattermole.

SlickRic

ok, spearing off please so.

it's not his fault, but we need something different now.

c'mon rafa, swallow your f*cking pride. your gameplan has no worked.

masch and n'gog on, and switch to our regular formation.

mike65

Once was enough.

FFS! Shocking work from our dynamic MF there! Reina to the rescue.

Well done Pepe.

Get Agger off now, he's very rusty and get Riera on 4-4-2-

Doubt it but it's in the rules. Referee fail imo.

Spearing is a good young player. There's been worse players on the pitch today. Don't make him the scapegoat.

Did I say it was his fault we were losing? Did I say he wasn't good? He's good but Pacheco's a better young footballer who deserves his chance ahead of him imo.

HT 1-0

Regarding the balloon/space-hopper, why do keepers not clear thier area of crap? You see streamers etc in the area at times and yet it gets left.

Rafa out, Bruce in (as long as he brings Bent, Cattamole, Reid)

was the baloon there for the first 5 minutes? or did it just come on before the goal?

I don't see how Spearing is even getting a chance ahead of Pacheco who's far more dangerous!! I know he's light like but ffs we need somebody who'll get things going and gamble

According to FIVE live it has now been confirmed as a red beachball with liverpool printed on it. Also the rules of the game state that the ref should have stopped play and ordered the removal of the balloon and the game restarted with a hop ball.

Spearing is crap imo, but Pacheco is a forward, not a midfielder. It's not one or the other

kaimera

man that little pillock knocked it onto the pitch in the build up to the goal; it wasnt there long and to me it looked like Pepe was gonna get it but didnt get a chance.

That balloon goal is funny

SlickRic

yeah, the balloon was damn irritating.

but, more importantly, our performance does not deserve anything. that needs to be put right before we can start moaning too much about luck.

Didn't another team ban balloons for a similar reason a couple of seasons ago? And I left the balloon on my bench in FF

First move has to be Spearing off, Mascherano on. I don't care how tired he is.

Poor team selection, now put it right

Agreed. I don't give a sh ite if Spearing is Liverpool born and breed he ain't up to the standard required.

there was a couple of times in that half where we had the ball on the halfway line, and we had 5 midfielders all in a line not making any sort of run at all.

it was a f***ing joke.

i'm really really annoyed by that half of football from a Liverpool point of view.

babel looks willing, and benny looks like he could do damage if we could manoevre the ball properly. spearing hasn't looked out of place either. they're the positives.

it is the tactics that seem to be screwing this up so far. sunderland haven't even played that well really.

Well summed up.

The lack of support for Kuyt is astonishing tbh.

He needs to change it at halftime but he won't until 60mins I'd imagine.

That first half reminds me of the Boro game last season.
