Carra - shocking beyond belief

Loosing both gerrard and torres to injury as well .

WHO BOUGHT THEM ?

Who picked them ?

Who trained them?

Who picked the formation ?

Who who who let the fecking dogs out ?

Im sorry saint but they have to take responsibilty as well not just the manager . Man for Man they are better than the reading team and Rafa played his strongest team bar pepe - had to make to forced changes - was constantly updating the formation and moving players around on the pitch to try and get them into the game more .

The players have to hold their hands up as well to that defeat - they were shocking - once that line is crossed and the whistle goes its down them to take responsibility for the game .

Yossi gave away a stupid pen and also missed an easy chance to level it up - where is the slagging off him

Carra was shocking all night - at fault for second goal and nearly gifted them two more where is his justified critisim .

Or is it easier just to lump it all on the manager

The Manager takes responsibility mate. That's the way it is, that's the way it's always been and more importantly, that's the way it should be. We've played well and got the result on how many occasions this season? Two? Three maybe? and that's it. It has to come back to the manager. It's not a bad run, it's not a skid, it's not a case of us not getting the rub of the green. We have been awful since the moment pre-season started. It's got to the point where I don't think anyone is even surprised with tonight's result. I keep thinking we're gonna come out the other end, we'll win a couple ugly, find a little bit of confidence and kick on from there, or that we'll absolutely tonk someone but it hasn't happened and it doesn't look like happening.

And as for our new £20 million midfielder, he looks alright on the ball but I'm absolutely mortified to see that he doesn't want (or seem able) to tackle. See McAnuff run and shot for absolute proof of this or re-watch the other 119 minutes if you're not quite sure.

We're fu....c....k....ed 

Spot on Scott.  We're a shambles and this season is tailspinning out of control on all fronts.  Getting to fourth looks like a monumental ask at this stage.  We're deep in it and that doesn't look like changing.  F.uck.

What's being Spanish got anything to do with it? No harm, but you sound like them in the press.

Besides, we're out. Yeah. But seriously, is anyone in the slightest surprised? I'm as off as anyone else, but it was coming. Don't be shocked if we exit the Europa as well.

i just hope there will be the time when we all look back on this thread and think of how knee jerk our reactions were, and how silly we all sounded.

but i honestly can say that i dont think that time will be very near in the future.

how did it all go wrong?


i think this game can prove that ANYONE, significant or not, can beat this current liverpool fc squad.

Lets make the Newkit XI, I'll take right wing, Insua seems easy to beat
