We still draw far too many games, we still play the most mind numbing negative football, we still have a serious lack of quality in the squad, we still rely on Torres and Gerrard.

At least we are consistent, consistently average. You can count the number of times on one hand that we have played well this season, the rest of the time it's been painful to watch.

Totally agree. We're only kidding ourselves to suggest otherwise!

The bottom line is we just don't have the quality and strength in depth that United have. The other day they brought on Tevez where as we brought on El Zhar yesterday. That's the difference. They've been without Rooney for 8 games but they've still got Ronaldo, Berbatov and Tevez in reserve.

They've also got goals all throughout the team. All their forwards are in double figures for the season, Scholes, Giggs, Nani, Carrick all chip in and they've got a centre back in Vidic who's scored 6 already from centre half. Our centre backs pose no threat whatsoever apart from Hyypia who plays less regularly these days anyway.

Yesterday was painful to watch at times. I said before the game that if we played Lucas and Mascherano that we'd struggle to create and that was exactly the case. It's hardly rocket science. Their passing all day was absolutely dreadful. Watched the highlights on MOTD last night and even at his age, you see Spud pulling the strings for Fulham and even now, he'd offer more to our side than a lot of our current players. Dossena was a joke aswell and how he gets picked ahead of Aurelio is beyond me. Kuyt popped up with another important goal but his first touch is shocking for a so called professional footballer. Torres just isn't himself at all.

Oh well, it looks as if we're playing for second now.

very true and top it of chavs have now a great manager who might just boost there league form I am not sure on our current form 2nd is deffo.

Bad Times

If rafa goes from 1st and 8 point lead to 3rd and around 10 points behind should he be given and 2nd chance.

If so he gonna have to stand up and say sorry alot of these players i brought in just can't cut it and ship them out in summer asap.

If he gets a new contract with all the pew pew bits he wants I hope for the love of all that is holy he can buy the right players this time.

But to be frank I can't see it happening he just prob buy even worse players.

Ive said it for a while now that Rafa will NEVER win us the title!
The mans self obsessed, its all about him.
I hope the yanks have the bottle to fk him right off, anyone who believes that we have made great strides under him is deluding themselves
I was embarrassed sitting in Anfield yesterday watching another clueless performance, we have limped out of the title race through Rafas stupidity
Blindly supporting him is just a load of :censored:

Only for the fact that both Chelsea & Arsenal have dropped thier standards this season we would be firmly in 4th place.
I for one would be happy to see him go now with Lucas and Dossena under his arm!

And I reckon people like you dont actualy see or dont want to see whats really going on! Just like me your entitled to your opinion.
You think Rafa can do no wrong, I think hes not good enough for LFC!
Oh and whats this :censored:

about standing up? I stood on the kop for many a year when there was REAL atmosphere in the grounds so dont think your doing anything special compared to everyone else in the ground.

by **redbeergoggles** » Mon Feb 23, 2009 11:54 pm

I see fella, its just my utter disappointment that fans like you are creeping in to Anfield.

by **teamleader1** » Tue Feb 24, 2009 12:09 am

Likewise fella!

I think ive followed LFC for long enough to have an opinion if thats ok with you?
Then again I dont go in the kop these days, not like you real supporters

No it wouldnt Hiemdell,Because i want him here not at Madrid, You wouldnt be laughing if he announced his first signing were Alonso an Riena now would you.

An the other fella who said because Chelsea an Arsenal have dropped there standards , we would be fighting for fourth Dont make me laugh, Have you ever for one minute thought we have got better, An thats why they are below us,
