Will the real Liverpool please stand up?
We have a great squad of players and a manager who is being followed by all the top clubs in Europe, so how come Luton battered us?? We are lucky still to be in the FA cup today, Luton deserved to win and not just because they battled better than us, but because they passed better, worked as a team better and really created the better chances.
In all my years I have never seen a Liverpool team play so badly. Jamie Carragher was the only player who could put his hand on his heart and say "you know what I did ok today".. the rest of them should be ashamed.
So whats the reason?? We don't suddenly become a bad team and lets face it the line up was a good one, this wasn't a Liverpool reserve team, it was packed full of class. Carragher, Finnan, Hypia, Alonso, Lucas, Crouch. and the rest of them are hardly

! It looked to me like we just didn't want it. Did we win a single 50/50 ball? I have never seen so many passes go astray. Are the players starting to get caught up in the media frenzy about whether Benitez is resigning/getting sacked. Is Rafa setting the team up wrong? Can he no longer motivate a talented squad? Was it just bad day at the office?
I don't know any more what to think but one thing is for sure, if things do not improve on the pitch soon, we will need to look for another manager, coz at the end of the day this is a results game and at the moment we are not getting the results, and to make it even worse we are not even playing well against opposition we should be blowing away.
