The problem is our Strikers, they can't make a decent shot, once again we are relying on Gerrard too much.  We need new strikers!!

[Gaunt]

Hmm think the doom and gloom brigade are out again just because we lost a match we deserved to win.. After an 11 game unbeaten run too.

[fivecups]

he must have been tired seriously.. but i thought why not sub morientes for crouch.. u can see that crouch give liverpool more than what morientes contribute in the entire game.. and why not sub kewell towards the end. i still think rafa is not taking the competition seriously enough..
we play 4-4-2 and we won.. why change to 4-5-1? just because he wants everyone to play. but a final is a final. cisse and crouch combination was far better the garcia and morientes.
i think it was a clear penalty on kewell towards the end. the ref has have been the ref of american football ref. stupid calls. bad tackles were not given.
terrible linesman decision. offside for twice. that garcia chance should not have been offside. HE WAS ONSIDE...!!!
Feel so terrible to lose to a sucking team.

Of couse he was taking the competition seriously. He wanted desperately to win. He's freakin' father's just died but he stayed in Japan for the final.

Aside from that, I think Garcia was offside for FSP's attempt at the end.

It has to be sad whether you like it or not..."why the fuk change a winning team"? It was obvious that the way to beat them was in the air, and crouch would have frightened the fukking life out of them, also cisse with his pace their centre backs were poor in the air, sorry but "in rafa we trust" yes...but a big tactical calculation backfired on rafa he didn't use what excellent aireal threat that we have in crouch, riise should have been on from the start instead of finnan, a very disipointing preformance overall sau palou were not that good?.

Yep Gaunt if we beat Newcastle and Everton on the 26th and 28th respectively all will be well again.

[Alonso_Rulz]

Erm, Coaches plan the game, the team scores the goal, It's amazing how soon appears the "BUT" after an incredible winning row, and after dominating the game.

in a way, we just don't know what is goin through rafa's mind.his timing of substitue is very weird. too much tickling will hurt u sooner or later. should have take kewell out. he is just too tired.crouch should have come in earlier. the sao paulo defence have such a torrid time when crouch come on. he would have make a lot of difference had he start.

Ok so maybe Rafa made some mistakes, it's one of the very very few so far this season and his father has just died, give him a break.

[Ciggy]

Rafa looks awful he should have left Japan and flew to Spain.
Wrong decision not to play Cisse and Crouch but cant critise the man when he is in mourning.

Riise instead of Finnan?

That says it all! 

[Lando_Griffin]

Absolute disgrace ! The game plan was pathetic.
Anyone could see the right team to play and Raffa has TOTALLY fcuked up.

That pryke Kewell should never be on the pitch !

You are full of sh*t.
We've just totally dominated the S. Yank champs.

It wasn't the selection that was at fault, it was poor finishing and sh*te officials.

Exactly my point

[7_Kewell]

ignore him folks, John sounds like he's been on the pish.

[JohnBull]

He stayed to win, I love the man but today was a disgrace to a club that deserved to be WORLD champions
