Official Match Thread: Premier League: Liverpool v Everton

Balotelli is such a lazy ****er sometimes

 

Seems that way which is why many of us questioned the signing, unless he can change his game he will always look out of place

 

Everton will be well pleased with how this half has gone. So useless in front of goal

 

Good first half for us, without a goal unfortunately. Like to see Suso or Coutinho on for Markovic on the 60 minute mark.

 

Sturridge needs to ****ing hurry up with his injury and tell England to **** off in a few weeks time. Balotelli is gash up front on his own.

 

2 terrible defenses, a game neither can afford to lose - so of course this is going to finish 0-0

 

Thought we played well, a big improvement on the dross in recent weeks. BUT, really missing the clonicalness of Sturridge and Suarez. Markovic looks out of place but Lallana is looking like a good signing.

 

Still not sure what Markovic brings to the team...
And still certain we shouldn't have signed Balotelli. He needs his ego cut down so that he stops shooting from 30-40 yards. Yeah, one in fifty will go in and the media will rave about him being potentially 'world class', but the others are a waste of our hard work and movement. He's always been this way.

Good game so far, we look like we can open them up. Henderson's having a great game and Lallana too

 

Looked better than we have done last couple of games, at least we are creating chances even if not taking them.

The gobshite Owen on BT sport thinks the game has been pretty even.

 

Performance as been much better so far but still frustrating as hell. Hendo is getting better by the game!!!

 

Both teams should have had a penalty and Barry should be off

 

I know what you mean anout doing the same with passing Frank

Annnoys me that such a big deal is made about having an organiser/shouter at the back, its not hard. Someone ust be able to do it!


Thanks for HT updates, hard to know how players p;laying just from radio and match stats

 

will be 5 goals scored in the 2nd half

 

Coutinho or Suso on for Markovic.

 

Balotelli is proving £16 million doesn't get you a world-class striker these days. It's so easy for a defence. They just have to get tight to him and he's out of the game, and because he's selfish, that means he's taking out half the attacking options Liverpool had with Suarez in the squad. He's not putting himself about to bring others into the game, he's just all about the goal tally... Problem is, he still thinks he's playing in Italy. He looks to take touches before shooting, and you can't get them in the Premier League, everybody is pressing crazy now (except the Newcastle and QPR defences ).

Premier League defences know exactly how to play him, and he's being found out. He rapidly needs to buck-up his ideas, because he has all the raw-attributes to be like Lukaku. At the moment, he's just the kak part. I really wonder if Brendan regrets not pushing through the Remy deal, because he's a superior player.

On the game, I'm hoping for a Liverpool win. I like their style when they're in full-flow, probably the most entertaining in the league, but at the moment it looks like Raheem is the only player up to last year's standards.

 

Get ****ing Markovic off and Coutinho on. We're playing with ten men!

 

About fair the result at HT. Having said that, Everton should also be down to 10 men.

Impressed with Moreno (despite peno' challenge!) and Manquillo and Hendo has been superb.

Less said about Markovic the better. Hopefully he'll improve. I'm not exaggerating when I say I'd currently rather have Downing than him.

Come on lads! 6 goals now!

 

Markovic does all the hard work then just flops over

 

Anyone but Markovic in that position please.
