    Watched the match during a lecture last night. Missed first goal - then Balo picks up the ball, drives forward to edge of box, shifts and lets a beauty fly...he must have got the goal I assume - confidence coursing through his veins. That's the type he is, he will be just fine

    I expect the Mirror to change this into a story where he visited one of the beleaguered dogs, kicked its head clean off and posed for a selfie with his trophy.

    First Wolves and now dogs, Balotelli should be locked up!

    Henderson was in midfield. It was Manquillo who was covering across.

    Sorry, you're right, it was Manquillo.

    Hendo made every other player look ****e when it came to pressing. He is an amazing player with so much athletic energy. Well deserved new responsibilities. But back to first line - work ethic needs to come up to Jordan's level for a lot of the other players.

    Last point - too many straight line balls down the sides of the CB's over the past 180 mins have been allowed - that will always show that CB's are slower than CF's. Our No. 8 needs to get to grips with his defensive responsibilities ASAP. Moreno not at fault last night for equalizer - his job is to advance in LFC system. Gerrard expected to drop into the middle and allow one or other CB to squeeze attacking space out wide.

    Pressing? We don't really. Watched Dortmund vs Arsenal - that's how you press.

    Ah go pull your lip over your head and swallow.

    The match saps will be back, it has been prophesied that the chosen sap will one day return from the forbidden zone. He will come in one of the pre-chosen forms, back in the days of last season the traveller came as a large and posting Turd.

    And with people criticising Moreno for the goal, if our full backs don't push on we don't get penalties in injury time.

    Chelsea draw at home to Schalke, Arsenal lose to Dortmund away, City lose to Munich away and one of the lads who supports United said Eastenders wasn't great the last two nights.

    Liverpool with a win.

    Brady just referred to us as blowing it last season. Don't think that's a debate you want to open there Liam.

    Why would we need a penalty in the 90th minute when 1-0 up?

    You can't blow the league in one game.

    Having a record of W15 D3 L1 over the 2nd half of the season isn't blowing it. It's utter insanity.

    We lost the league when we dropped almost half the pts available in the first half of the season.

    Ya.......Arsenal top of the league in Feb, 8 points clear of LFC arrived at Anfield.....they didn't blow it.

    Manchester United non defense of their title.....they didn't blow anything.

    Chelsea drawing with Norwich, beaten by Sunderland and Crystal palace in the run in to the title. That wasn't blowing it either.

    Liverpool W12 D1 L1 in the last 14 games blew it.

    :rolleyes:

    One player was and LFC do play high pressure up the pitch based on certain triggers but currently Hendo is working on his own

    Not a bad start for liverpool.
    Chelsea - Drew at home.
    Arsenal - hammered away.
    City - Beaten again.
    Utd - Alfie set fire to the house with Kat in it.

    Brady is just mad because he didn't get to feature with Giles and Dunphy in that new Cadburys ad.

    It cuts both ways, the full backs pushing on cost us a goal and lead to a penalty as well. A more mobile defensively minded midfield could have stopped the goal being coincided and mig should have stayed on his line. Or at least left it a bit later.
    I was just thinking that. Moreno was getting unfair criticism.

    LOAN WATCH (mini edition)

    J Ibe - last 20 for Derby in 2-3 away win
    B Smith - 85 mins for Swindon in 2-2 home draw
    J C Teixeira - 75 mins and an assist for Brighton in 3-2 away defeat (that's 2 goals and 2 assists I think since he joined)

    He's getting deserved criticism. It doesn't cut both ways, there is a huge difference between pushing on when drawing in a game that is game can't really afford not to win and pushing forward when 1-0 already. It's simple basic in game intelligence.
