Today's football.

[evilwebby]

The RS are sh1tting themselves and bracing themselves to finish below us for the 3rd year in a row. You know it's that's the truth.

I think its fair to say the wind has been knocked out their sails, defeats to Citeh and Chelsea have really knocked their confidence, after those games they got a 2-0 win at anfield to hull (a game pre December they would of won by 3/4 goals) they were gifted the points at stoke and looked ****e, and looked poor again today.

Providing we show up at anfield like we did at OT/the emirates and hopefully Barkley plays I think we can dick them

Gary Lineker says definite pen. The jug eared prat.

Brendan Rodgers: "It was a clear penalty. There's contact with the back foot. When you're running at speed, that contact is enough. I think we were unlucky not to get another penalty too."

:blink:

Utterly 100% deluded is Brenda

 

[lmurkder]

Liverpool requiring OGs, suicide defending of opponents and gift pens to stay in the 4th place mix.

It's all good blues...all good.

True this

God I hate them.

I'm still seething here

 

[ToffeeDan]

I think we'll win about 5-3 at The Pit.. - and at least two of their goals will involve a shady pen or free-kick.

Stan Collymore said it was not a penalty and got a text from a RS fan, 'Why are you criticising the club you played for'. It wasn't a pen. Last week Sterling clearly handled the ball before he dived in the penalty area. Refs are acting favourably towards the RS since the RS media launched the attack on refs after the Man City and Chelsea games.

Standard of refereeing in this league is shocking

its every week now. Every god damn week. The RS are always at the tip of your tongue when a shocker of a ref is mentioned.

Go back over the weeks and months and look at them all. Last week, yep a ****house ref. Today another one. I'm positive I saw a bulge in the back of refs shorts at one point.

 

[Alan Whittle]

the guy who was caretaker deserves some praise too, he got them really organised as soon as that gremlin holloway was out the door

This x 100. Keith Millen was in charge for the draw against you and the win at Hull.Pulis has transformed us.We outplayed and out fought Stoke today but it is still so tight. We need some quality up front to help Chamakh.

 

[davek]

Me, you and a few others said this last week Dave after the Stoke game but there were some on here praising them and ****ting themselves.

yep. Way too much resect given to them. As evilwebby pointed out above, they were top at Christmas and now they're 8 points off the top...three weeks later!

Bad result in the Derby and they'll drop like stone to 7th/8th and stay there.

 

[hullefc]

Rodgers got his tactics and team selection wrong and it was blatantly obvious from the first 10 minutes. An astute knowledgeable manager would have changed it during the first half but Rodgers is a limited tactician, made worse by his ego. Liverpool no longer control the ball but boom it forward for Suarez or Sturridge or Sterling to chase so they can try and get the ball in and around the penalty area. He is relying on luck not controlled football.

The RS media have tried to convince the world that Anfield is still a 'fortress' and that is why they will not only get 4th. but challenge for the title. They think that because they have all the top teams to play at Anfield they are going to win them all and storm the league. Any team that controls the ball with pass and move will give LFC a game at Anfield. Like OT, Anfield shouldn't hold any fear for teams except those that are beat before they get off the bus Norwich, Fulham etc. Their home form could actually be the worse they have ever had I can't see us, City, Arsenal, Chelsea, Spurs and Newcastle rolling over.

 

[blue4eva77]

Still win the league though lads.

I dunno why you are all so outraged. Footy is just like wrestling, its barely believable in some areas.

 

[PITA]

Well no, not really. I didn;t say the ref wasn't sure if it was a foul or not, i said he got 1 view of it at full speed and thought there was a foul so gave it.

Its only after watching slow mo replays that we can judge with certainty that there was no contact.

I thought that you said 'But as always with the ref, with 1 look at it at full speed from a different angle makes it very difficult to judge accurately.'.
