Horrible start to the game, but after 30-35 minutes we pretty much had full control.  Seb looks really nervy with the ball at his feet sometimes, but a lot more comfortable when he's actually defending.  Tho he's made a couple mistakes.  SGS that's a good point about Enrique.. He really does just force the ball up the pitch too much.  Hendo is nowhere to be seen again.  Nobody seemed up for it at the start except maybe Suarez and Skrtel.  Should have started Carroll as he absolutely hates these guys, although that may have ended in him getting the Sh*t kicked out of him or getting sent off.  Do hope to see him and Maxi in the second.  Adam's been pretty poor as well.  Spearing's been a bit quiet, but I feel he's played pretty well.

The wind was killing us a bit there, so lets hope we go into the second with an advantage, and if we keep playing the way we finished, we should keep control of the game.

From Bleah to fart. how i feel with this hangover and this liverpool season

rubbish all round. Coates looks terrible at the back. Enrique has been poor in recent times after a fantastic start to the season. In the middle Adam has been poor again. Does any other player in the league waste as much possession as he does? Henderson has perhaps been the biggest disappointment so far. Doesnt contribute anything to the side going forward.

I'd bring on Carroll for Henderson. Desperate times and all that.

Very negative first half. Would like to see Rodriguez on for Henderson and Gerrard on for Adam in the second half. Maybe even Carroll for Kuyt.

I would get Gerrard and Maxi in the second half, a bit of creativity and goal threat needed

Maybe one of the worst if not the worst game played by us this season ,totally disgraceful from manager to the last of the players ,totally lacking pace ,quality ,intensity and intelligence.
Kenny's total trust in Henderson and Adam is pathetic and at this stage it is all KK fault ,it's about time our manager accepts his mistakes and take responsiblity for his actions.
Shamefull display thus far. Only little Jay looks interested in the game.

It looks like we are set up to try and get a draw.

No I don't think so, its set up the way it should be, but the problem is we don't have the players capable of winning the game, except for Suarez.

unfortunately.

i don' like how we play Adam. As in he really blows right now we shouldn't play him. Downing neither.

Hendo is reportedly playing today, I am not going to confirm that because I haven't seen him do anything.

Enrique and Coates are gonna give me a heart attack.

I miss Gerrard. Luis needs a goal like a dope fein needs dope.

i don't agree with the Downing bit, he's really played well the last few games.

We look lost.  No leadership on the pitch at all without Carra or Gerrard (although I have no problem with easing Coates in to the team).

Yes it's an awful pitch and the weather is bobbins, but we need to someone to take control of the game.  I'd take Adam off, put Hendo in the centre to let him play where he wants to, put Kuyt out right and bring Carroll on.

That does not really explain why have no plan at all going forward. We just depend on one or two players doing everything on their own while the rest are happy to stay back and wait.

Does Adam needs to score an own goal to be subbed? Geez can't believe KK sticks to this lad...

terrible start for the 2nd half! COMON LADS!
