We've been **** in recent weeks. Everyone just looks ****ing slow and sluggish, the only time anyone looks like they've went above a stroll were Vuckic and Gutierrez for the goal. Really would like it if our players actually looked like they were making an effort. In fairness to us with the GK thing we're just trying to take the sting out of Liverpool's momentum.
Much much better now from Liverpool Ba dont look fit to me! Fair play to him out there having a go though
Starting to look a bit more active but that final ball of his is still way off what it needs to be. Enrique is doing very well, he looks up for it and encouraging everyone to look forward more.
What the **** is that man just smashing it forward when no ones there? Pardew needs to have a bloody word at half time, we are having a mare.
Santon was having words with Pardew, expect him on second half. Gives Jonas the chance to get forward at least.
Change the record. Downing has been lively all half and has worked his absolute socks off, though why he's not on the left i don't know. Spearing has looked absolutely class. He's let nothing past and his passing is starting to get rather good. He's as good a back-up defensive mid as we could buy and none would have his scouse passion and loyalty. I know people have started saying that after a point it's not bad luck it's poor finishing, but Newcastle's goal was an absolute fluke, and that's the only meaningful effort they've had. We should be as comfortably 1-0 up as you can be at 1-0.
Want to see Santon & HBA come on second half here, we're just getting Krul to hoof it to an isolated Ba so far. Only player who has been stringing some good football together first half is Cabaye, but everyone is ****ing it up around him.
It has been a bit sloppy this first half but there has been some good football as well hopefully more of the same in the second half.As for Downing yes there were a few clangers but i think he had some good things to. A few more goals will do
I'm embarrassed by that first half performance. What a crock of **** that was. Get Vuckic and Raylor off for Santon and Benny and we might start actually playing football!
Agree with this, Downing has looked lively and is always causing them problems, our main problem has been getting people in to the box AGAIN. Carroll picks the ball up wide, and stays out there.. You're our number-nine! GET IN THE BOX!
