*Official* English Football Season 2011-12

[Scaly piscine]

Looks like the same old Liverpool. A lot of rubbish hopeful deliveries into the box, when there is a quality cross or a good position to cross there's all of one person in the area. They just don't commit people often enough - or even close to it. If they don't take one of the 1-2 good chances or score with a long-range shot then Liverpool will lose.

I mean how does Enrique not get a yellow card for that?

Gerrard 2 for 2 on conversions.

 

[Scaly piscine]

3 for 3

One of the few good chances Liverpool will create wasted.

 

[Scaly piscine]

What the ****. None of the central midfield create anything and they don't join in the box, so it's all on Carroll to do a hell of a lot more is it Shearer?

Carroll and Henderson starting in a 4-4-2. We deserve to lose. So sad.

 

[Nate]

Even Redknapp gets it!

Kenny's last chance in my eyes. Have staunchly defended him so far, but this is it. Be a man and admit that despite the money spent on Andy/Jordan, they're not in your best XI, bring on a holding midfielder and Bellamy, keep the ball on the ground and do this.

Carroll and Henderson starting in a 4-4-2. We deserve to lose. So sad.

The focus on Carroll is ridiculous. He gets no service, at least he gets in the right areas even if his movement isn't anything special. I don't know where Suarez goes as he's rarely in the box - he is the one that should have been attacking the front post not Carroll (some more dubious BBC analysis). Henderson, Gerrard and Adam don't support the strikers.

Carroll's lack of movement is way, way down the list of Liverpool's problems.

 

[Nate]

I would like to put Henderson in a garbage bin.

 

[Jarquis]

Wonder if Kenny has got the receipt for Henderson?

Or maybe the papers got it all wrong and there should be a decimal point in the £20m.

 

[Eds]

He cost £13m, FYI.

Not that there shouldn't still be a decimal point in that, though.

 

[Jarquis]

Definitely reported as £20m :/

 

[GIMH]

Fairly typical Liverpool this today, controlling the game on the most part but no end product.

 

[GIMH]

Was coming, that. To an extent, anyway.

Was coming, that. To an extent, anyway.

Liverpool always look dangerous at set pieces, one of the few times they combine decent delivery with people in the box. It's just open play they're a bit crap.

 

[GIMH]

Downing had a decent game today I reckon

 

[GIMH]

Carragher

 

[Scaly piscine]

Ugh so hate the way the commentators spin everything.

Suarez bollocksed that up. If it had been Carroll they'd have been whining about poor first touch etc. and selfish play. Instead all they said for Suarez was that it was unusual for him not to spot Bellamy. Why can't the useless ****s just commentate on the game and cut the political ****.

4 for 4.

 

[Nate]

Feel like this situation is made for Kuyt.

Or Carragher.

EDIT: Actually not sure if I could watch penalties. Gahhhhhhhhhh

 

[GIMH]

Great game this.

 

[cpr]

4 for 4.

You cant call Stevie, legend of the game, true team player, greatest person ever to have lived etc etc
