Moses could not give a ****.......anytime i've seen him play.
To think, Nuri Sahins loan was cut short while Moses is still knocking around hurts my head. Useless.

Different scenarios, sahin wanted to play and dortmund wanted him so we we were happy to let it go ahead, madrid too obviously. Chelsea dont want moses back and he strikes me as not arsed with not playing either, so 2 out of the 3 parties involved are happy with is as it is.

Lacking desire and committment is one thing, not having any sort of form and being out of sorts is another ... the guy must be doing something right if BR who sees him everyday in training and was going to put him on at 3-3 today - no?

Don't get me wrong, i am no Moses fan and on his performances i'd not offer him anything fulltime. I'd love to hear Br's real views on the lad. Just saying that today alone, he wasn't involved for alot of the game, comes on, only thing i can remember him doing was a decent challenge on the wing that he came out the better. Don't think the lad is quality enough for us and it seems a step too far, just like with Chelsea. Weather he gives an actual fook or not ... well, thats for another day.

- Again, not sticking up for Moses!

Granada playing on sky sports aaaaaaaaaaaand ilori isint even in the squad

He's injured according to twitterati.

I wonder how valued he's by the club as talk that Granada want to sign him permanently. I believe he has been very impressive in the couple of games he has played.

Think it's just a case of not being pumped up for some of the games against smaller teams. Against Spurs, Everton, Arsenal recently we have been unbelievable. Even against City away, we played very well. There's no doubt, when were doing our thing, we can beat anyone in the league, especially at home.

Personally I don't think the defense has been that bad overall, today was just a wild open game. A bit of stability at the back would of course help everyone. I definitely wouldn't be rushing to put Lucas back in the team but will be glad when he is back and available, he does have his uses.

I can tell you now that Lucas wouldn't have given Jonjo the same room Gerrard did today.

Oh come off of it. Moses was at least seen on the pitch for the time he was on it. We couldn't keep the ball for longer than 5 seconds and the nerves really got to us. Take off the tinted glasses, in reality Coutinho was annonomous for the entire second half! Not knocking him but the game passed him by - yet we conveniently forget it cos we won. Allen did really well when he came on which was great to see.

... not saying i'd keep Moses myself but just wouldn't pick him out of a bad lot today.

Well i think that's the point i Was trying to make Demosthenese .

YouTookMyName · 23-02-2014 07:59PM

We're closer to first (4 points) than Spurs are to fourth (6 points)

End of February with 11 games left, Thats just fúckin' beautiful lads.

Agree with that. Not to many will get in behind Lucas either.

Let's face it Shelvey is an average enough player too.

No worries man, just saying it wasn't based on today he was OK, but i am sure we can find a better alternative to e a first team starter on what we'd sign him for. That said i have a sneaky horrible feeling that BR still thinks he can get more from him. that was alot of trust he showed bringing him on at 3-3 ... See Moses when Hendo scored the 4th? LOL, he knew he was sitting down again for a while.

It could be a case they see a great player and hope to take advantage of the fact he is getting game time .

Would love to see some stats on goals conceded due to individual errors or from set pieces..

We are on bloody song offensively though. It's ****ing insane.

I have a feeling The Europa Cup will now become a real trophy to win in one part of Manchester and not a Mickey Mouse Cup as it has been called from that part of Manchester for the last 20 years.

He is and has zero pace whatsoever which makes Gerrards performance worse.

We're playing a dangerous game trying to outscore teams and Southampton will punish us big time if we try to do the same next weekend. I will gladly take a point right now from the next game.

23-02-2014 08:09PM

Southampton have won 1 from their last 7 league games at home.

It ain't all Gerrard's fault!!!!

T-K-O · 23-02-2014 08:10PM

Guys, Is there a link for highlights of the game?

Demosthenese · 23-02-2014 08:11PM

Bare in mind Hendo more or less plays further forward and marauds forward, Coutinho is an attacking player, same with Sterling/suarez/Sturidge ... that leaves Stevie G with a hell of a lot of defending to do!

Augmerson · 23-02-2014 08:11PM

I think there was a thread at the start of the season about possibl top scorers. I suggested Sturridge could do very well. Kew Tours laughed me out of it. Should have made a bet with him.

Coutinho did nothing to help, this was the main problem IMO. Allen helped alot.

Have been saying it for awhile now, but the further forward Henderson plays the better he is. Just because he slogs his guts, that doesn't make him a defensive midfielder like many seem to think he is.

brevity · 23-02-2014 08:15PM

Imo, Lucas and Gerrard cannot play together. They do not compliment each other at all and tend to get in one another's way.

The only way Lucas can have a role is if Gerrard is pushed forward, which he probably won't be, or if Lucas comes on for Gerrard with 20 or 30 minutes to go.

Coutinhio was poor today. Allen made a huge difference when he came on.

Coutinhio needs to put in shifts like the Arsenal game, otherwise he leaves Gerrard and Henderson exposed.

He may well be hooked for the next game

True they are not quite in the form they were in earlier in the season but they will still be very tough I feel. Plus I get the impression that they are dangerous off set-pieces. Lovren and Fonte have scored 5 goals between them.

We now go away for 3 games

1st March Southhampton v Liverpool
16th March Man Utd v Liverpool
22nd March Cardiff v Liverpool

Gerrard has been one of our best players the past month or so.
