    We need to settle on a back 4 to. We cant keep changing it.

    Depending on injuries though we could see three changes at the weekend.

    Manquillo Lovren Sakho Flanagan

    Oh and regarding the "bandwagon/scapegoat" thing. Its not. I'm not suggesting the defeat or any of our defeats are solely down to GJ so not scapegoating.

    I can and have criticised other players ...e.g. Lucas, Gerrard Skerts, Coutinho etc for a poor performance or individual mistakes. Last night it was again a mix of no communication across back four and midfield not tracking runners.

    No, why I whinge about GJ is the efforts not there, the characters gone. As has been said countless times he's often last back into position, often loses the ball, stops and watches how it turns out, rarely attempts to beat a man, takes 6 touches in a move where the other 4 players took one each. He's simply too quick to give up in every scenario.

    And claiming "bandwagon" suggests, one person claimed it and others just regurgitate that view. Since I believe we all display a fair amount of intelligence on here; is it not more likely everyone just keeps watching the same display from him every game and reacts accordingly?

  8. Can get discounted tickets online if you book in advance, we didn't and should be about £55 for two adults and two kids. However, got some 50% off vouchers on the back of quavers :)

    i have been once, but my youngest was too young to appreciate it, only 2 at the time, so wants to go again.

    i cant wait until they are older and i can go into the rest of the park and go on the proper rides <laugh>

    because he is ****e,

    serious question for people on here, i hear the argument a few times he is experienced etc etc for big games, but what use is that if he is useless and looks like he really doesn't give a ****?

    is it not better to just take the loss now and start giving the players we have long term the experience now? moreno,mankiller,flanno,enrique,Mclaughlin,smith etc they are mainly young but at least they have the right attitude <ok>

    put the ****er in the u21's, useless ****!

    think our best back four (subject to no injuries) will be Lovren, Manquilli. Moreno, Skerts with Sakho on the bench. Get rid of Johnson and Agger. Send Coates out on loan, with option to bring him back if any injury crisis. Have Flanno as back up

    Really strange game - I don't think we were all that bad. Yet again, silly mistakes cost us.

    Defence
    Bar the obvious mistake, I was very impressed with Moreno's performance - closing down players, putting pressure on, calm in possession, showed great speed down the flanks.

    Johnson was Johnson but I think he was better than usual (still sh*t though).

    For me, Lovren was the worst defender - made a mistake for each of the 3 goals IMO and failed to lead the line. Whilst he is vocal, I'm not sure he commands the respect of Skrtel. It's a shame our best defender is sat on the bench.

    This defence will need some time to gel.

    Midfield
    Pretty poor bar Allen, who I thought had a great game. Henderson looked off pace and he squandered two great chances when he could have squared the ball with his left foot but chose not to.

    Gerrard was awful in protecting the back 4 (as per usual) and he needs to be phased out ASAP.


    Attack
    It looked promising without really delivering. We broke at pace but found little options in the box. When Sturridge goes out wide, it leaves a large space in the middle - this used to be occupied by Luis. Hopefully Ballotelli can fill this void.

    I thought Markovic was very good when he came on and he's an exciting player. Linked up well with Moreno a couple of times and the speed can be devastating.

    Also, I'm pleased for Lambert - he's nowhere near good enough to start matches but in desperate times like yesterday, he provides an option.
