Match Day Thread Burnley FC V Liverpool FC official match thread

Don't know ho we aren't losing, Burnley are all over us.

 

Balotelli is off somewhere else

 

We wouldn't look comfortable defensively under Rodgers if we had the whole Chelsea team as our starting line up.

 

"a bit more confident"

 

Getting totally outclassed by ****ing Burnley. Haha.

 

The amount of times we've just passed across the defence to toure only for henderson to be too far up the pitch so toure has no one to pass to, then ends up hoofing it up the pitch,

 

To be fair, we're doing a damn good job of making them look great. We've not strung more than 4 passes together all game, hoof the ball forward to the three midgets up top and have no one in the middle of the pitch. Burnley are playing well, but it's mostly just more desire - they're fighting, pressing and chasing everything whilst we're just scared of having the ball and kicking it away. We're an embarrassment to football right now and are the biggest cause of our problems.

There is no way in hell we're getting anything out of this game unless Rodgers changes it.

 

Well, that was horrendous.

But it's ok - we have to quality full backs on the bench when we could actually play Hendo and Marko in their best positions.

Gerrard and Lucas in central midfield is the worst partnership I have seen since Lovren and Skrtel in defence. There is a reason why we rarely control matches and that's because we have pedestrian central midfielders.

The good news is Jones is injured. Now we just need Gerrard and Skrtel to pick up a knock and we could actually play our best XI.

 

Burnley deserve at least a point. That's saying how awful we now are. Anyone still think Rodgers is doing a reasonable job? Anyone still think we have a chance of top 4?

 

How can Gerrard put in a performance like this and not retire? How can he not know how total **** he is now, and how he is a black hole sucking all movement out of the universe? He should not be looking for a contract extension, he should be walking out of the stadium at half time and getting a taxi to the nearest glue factory. He should be mortified at how ****e he is.

 

Not since October did I have any hope.

I'll be positive though, if we keep solid, we can hopefully hold on for a draw.

 

We would look so much better because Chelsea have quality midfielders who can control a midfield and they have defenders who can actually defend. Not to mention, they would have actual fullbacks playing in wingback positions rather than Hendo (a CM) and Marko (Inside forward).

 

FFS Jimmy. Why do you keep wishing injuries on players.

 

I want Rodgers out and we need to get De Boer in ASAP.

The only way Rodgers stays in a job will be down to the difficulty of getting a quality manager mid season. His recent criticsm of Mario was pathetic and embarrassing,

 

As harsh as it sounds, its the only way Rodgers will play our best XI.

The only reason Sakho and Toure are in the side is because Lovren and Johnson are injured.

 

The only player to have created a chance in the first half...

 

His job isn't to create chances. It's to control the midfield and protect the defence. He fails spectacularly.

 

If you think Migs is in anyway better than Jones, you are an ass clown of the highest order.

 

One chance stacked up against giving the ball away 15 times.
