That whole team apart from Hyypia, Mascherano and Lucas need to take a good look at themselves.
Rafa needs to throw some in the reserves and put some of the reserves in the first team they couldnt do any worst.
And Kewel can feck right off 65 grand a week.

Don't talk w@nk.
I know for certain Carra doesn't have an ego. Gerrard does, but if he thought he was bigger than the club, he'd have f*cked off to Italy or Spain like d*ckstain Owen did.
don't forget gerrard was 2 minutes away from signing for chelsea not too long ago before having a change of heart.
we need to get rid of this perception that gerrard is the man and we can't play without him.
Gerrard was about to, yes; but who could blame him then? Parry is in charge of such dealings and the c*nt went AWOL leaving time for Chelsea to even stick their noses in in the first place. The man has been guilty of a lot. There is a saying that a plumber is only as good as the tools he carries. In the case of Benitez, he hasn't really been allowed to obtain top of the line, has he? You have to work with what you've got, and what he has is more than a few spanners who aren't up to the job.
The criticism of Rafa can sometimes be just. But it's when the man starts to becomes the figurehead scapegoat and a sole target of the hate mongers, considering everything else that is going on around him at the club, that's when it becomes a joke.
They also say a bad workman blames his tools.
Maybe thats why Parry gets all the blame, he's certainly a fkn tool.

How come as soon as we go through a bad patch, it's because we're missing something?
Did we miss Pako when we stuffed Beskitas, or Newcastle, or Marsielle, or Havant, or Luton or any other game we won without him?
I for one think Pako's departure has affected us, but his absence isn't an excuse for what has to be said is a absoloute disgracful run of performances. Excuses don't wash, honesty needs to be put into that club and the honest answer is, the players right now are not up to the challenge of performing on a regular basis at the highest level.

Spot on Emerald
i might be wrong here, but United, Arsenal, City, Chelsea and Villa have all be taken over in the last couple of years and yet them seem to be able to perform.
i'm going to take chelsea as the example because they went through exactly what we're going through when Ranieri was there, every other week Eriksson and Mouriniho and every other manager was linked with the job, yet they still finished 2nd, so blaming the yanks isn't exactly fair either. the club needs to lose everyone in charge. yanks out and benitez out. let the fans buy the club and put someone who loves liverpool football club as manager because i guarentee someone like john aldridge or steve mcmahon wouldn't allow this level of performance

If it is true that Gerrard refused to play where Raffa told him then he should be dropped to the reserves for a few games (it is not as if he has been winning us games lately anyway so we may find the team plays better). If he does not like it then he can feck off to Chelsea if they still want him.
If it is true then it is shocking. The only way it is acceptable to me is had Gerrard then gone on to win the game for us and since that never happened he is 100% in the wrong. Raffa needs to take this team back!
