I wish someone would slap BR into seeing that 1 up front DOES NOT WORK. ****ing hell how blind can he be.
Seeing as he's better than Gerrard these days, yes At the moment, when Jonjo is poor, he's very poor. When he's good he's good. Still learning the game but he's still only 22.
Said it at the start, but Manquillo, Can and Borini should all be playing. Just so much crap out there atm. We will get d!cked by Madrid again and then the chavs next week.
Such a confusing, unorganised playing style. We just seem aimless. Board definitely needs to have a chat with Rodgers cause it's been like this for a couple of weeks now
Seems we've gone back to part zonally marking from corners with only 1 or 2 marking players (Skrtel been taken off marking after his grappling skills). Johnson cleared off the lines after Mig went wandering.
****ing hell we are absolutely awful at defending set pieces! BR - "We don't need a defensive coach" YES WE ****ING DO!
Coutinho looking the most creative going forward. Picking out players in and around the penalty box. Skrtel nearly scoring from a corner, great header, just wide.
Skrtel Lovren Johnson are just interested in passing amongst themselves or launching long aimless long balls. Mario as a lone striker does not work. Sterling wasted out wide - Rodgers, how can you not see that this does not work??
That is why I can't stand Skrtel! Back off from 50 yards away from goal, keep backing off, keep backing off until he gets to the edge of his area and then can't back off anymore so has to commit himself and give away the foul.
Need more drive from the central midfield. Need Coutinho deeper to drive the ball forward from centre midfield.
All of this huffing and puffing about the Gerrard contract, best thing that can happen is that he leaves/retires at the end of the season.
