We are footballs equivelant of thrush,irritating *****,Rooney huffing and puffing,Davis is invisible,we havent strung 3 passes together,we should just stay in the dressing room say its too cold or something

20% possession. Cowards from top to bottom

Would you be saying that if it was 0-0?

 

[captainvindaloo]

Rooney is out of position, should be in the middle. Get Davies off and maybe Lennon on.

 

[mightymoyes]

fat sam deserves the boot for that 1st half. awful is being kind

Liverpool is a club of winners who create their own luck.
Everton is a club of losers who expect to lose and therefore do.
We all know it´s the truth. "Expected losses" tells you all you need to know.

We are so bad on the ball it's laughable. We actually had a decent shape and defending well till the goal but we need to sort ourselves out attacking wise

This. When Mourinho does these tactics he actually has quality players who can hurt teams on the counter, by either going direct or playing more intricate football. What exactly have we done today? Hoofed it long EVERY SINGLE TIME. Players are treating the ball like a bomb. Total waste of time having people like Rooney and Sigurdsson on. Get Lookman and Vlasic on for direct pace if this is how we're going to play.

Mane - they'll regret that miss of his. That'll be playing on their minds now. This should be over, but it's not.

Same again this second half - it's all we can do basically. Retain discipline and wait and wait for the chance to peg them back then hold firm.

This match is defo still in play.

Thanks Mane.

 

[PhilEFC]

Glad it’s only one. Bad tactics this, it as if we are just trying to keep the score down.

 

[Marius57]

54 successful passes. Jesus wept

 

[Lob]

Thoroughly frustrating and uninspiring half. We have more Yellow cards than shots on target. Bunch of cowardly incompetent bottlers continually letting the blue half of Merseyside down. They are beaten before the match even kicks off. Sick to death of the lot of them. Cant see any way back unless they magically decide to put an innings in and show some quality. Extremely disappointing Derby once again.

 

[AstroCyclo]

Could still get blown away in the second half

 

[daza_1973]

I've never seen the gap in quality between the two sides as big as this ever.

I have - and to be fair we've won a few of them too.... 1997 cadamarteri derby springs to mind

 

[Rook]

ROBERTO MARTINEZ IN THE BOOTH FOR NBC FOR THE MANC DERBY!!!!!!

 

[Johnniepk]

We just can't keep the ball for any time. We either give it back to them or foul. They are getting more and more cocky as they realise we offer nothing for them to worry about, up front and in midfield. At one pont their two defenders were playing no more than 5 yards from the halfway line. Woeful performance indeed. Lucky its only 0_1 at this point.

How could Walsh have sanctioned the signing of Martina?
Just what directing was he doing that day?
