The Official Match Thread: Stoke City Vs Liverpool. (Premier League)

a slip for the first goal, **** marking and no one on the post for a corner for the second goal and undone by a long throw for the third.

but out-muscled and over-run all game

 

Nah we don't, ****ing crap yet again.

This is going to get a lot of people on BR's back. We get turned over too easily too often for it not to be brought up.

I'm not one who thinks changing it all again will be the right way forward but this is ****ing doing me in now

 

We will lose 4-1

 

I have the same conflict.. I think this is why FSG will wait before any significant investment. If this is the form for the season wn 1 lose 1 draw 1, he;s a gonner in the summer make no mistake

it wont be a reset, why, we made no progress in the first place if it turns out that way,

 

Remember when we used to moan about too many draws with rafa, what I'd ****ing give.....

 

Ah well, QPR next, need a win. January can't come soon enough.

 

we all know how stoke are going to play so you've got to expect the pysical stuff and if you can't handle it you lose

today we had too many small and lightweight (in size) players

 

get odriscoll he just been sacked by forest after they beat leeds

 

Ahh MFG where are you

 

This is simply embarrassing. FSG need to back their man ad then we can truly judge Br. But right now what can he do with ****ing dross like Cole, downing, Henderson and the incredibly inexperienced like sterling and suso. We need some serious bolstering. Fuxking pile of ****

 

Shawcross has Suarez in his pocket

 

suarez does well to get the ball across the box and theres no one there

 

That free kick summed us up quite well. Suarez and Agger standing over the ball, Gerrard, Sterling and Shelvey stood on edge of the box. Gerrard was clearly told to get numbers in the box, rather than doing it himself he turned and told Sterling (who did) and Shelvey (who refused) to get in there

 

We should not have trashed ourselves against their back line to leave bags of space behind.

BR has been tactically outmatched by Pullis this game. Pullis

Brendan knows fk all about defence, that much is very clear to me now, we are weak at direct long balls, crosses free kicks and corners get opened up far too easily, even Lucas cannot have an impact cos we are open everywhere when we lose the ball.

At times some of the players today look like they just want to get home.


Our back line gets exposed more times than Gary Glitters knob at a school ground

 

Firstly though:

Reina
Johnson skrtel Agger Enrique

Lucas Gerrard

Those are the ones that everyone would say are good enough and wouldn't change ( some eould argue Gerrard) and we are letting 3 in every other week.....

 

possession stats?

 

Well played Stoke, they were the better team and deserved the win.

 

Oh we lost that too

 

Ditto

They were very good actually

 

fair play to stoke they have never stopped running and tracking back...
