Albrighton and Gray are as good as Barnes. Hamza could come In and do a job as could Fuchs. We have limited cover at cb and for Vardy but have options in other areas. Should have started Hamza and Albrighton today in my opinion.
Ashley Posted 26 December 2019 Posted 26 December 2019 Seriously though. People leaving early at 3 then 4 nil down? Why? First time weve lost at home all season and the towel got thrown in, heads dropped.
Tazfox Posted 26 December 2019 Posted 26 December 2019 We seem to have a Plan A and Plan B that can work to beat the lesser teams in this division. However we are clearly not good enough to play them against the top teams. Desperately need to figure out a way to play against these teams. We are not on their level and it's clear that we can't deal with the press and talent that these teams can call upon.

It appears a number of members are talking about Rodgers and his overall management, not just about tonights game, your as bad as the Leicester fans who left the game early....

UniFox21 Posted 26 December 2019 Posted 26 December 2019 Oh Kasper is probably getting a fine from this one
TheUltimateWinner Posted 26 December 2019 Posted 26 December 2019 Knew we were doomed after that cringe intro to the lights show from chilwell and madders

aussie-fox Posted 26 December 2019 Posted 26 December 2019 I didn't leave the game early because I was enjoying Liverpool's performance top much. We were poor but Liverpool are some team
Chrysalis Posted 26 December 2019 Posted 26 December 2019 58 minutes ago, Tanya said: I do think the idea we can't get top four is ridiculous. It's not nailed on by any stretch but we won't play teams like Man City and Liverpool every week and many so called top sides are still wavering. It's on - but we have to bounce back from this awful humbling The issue I am concerned about is confidence, its going to be interesting how we perform in the next game, if we a bag of nerves or perform like newcastle and southampton games. I expect it will be cagey but even if it is that we have the quality to win it.
ARM1968 Posted 26 December 2019 Posted 26 December 2019 All teams can be beaten, even the great teams, and Liverpool are a great team. You cannot hope to win, though, if your endeavour does not at least match theirs. Just as we did against Man City, we capitulated. Our team were a disappointment today.
Sammy Posted 26 December 2019 Posted 26 December 2019 Rodgers got it completely wrong for both the Man City and Liverpool games he has to take the brunt of the criticism. Lost our heads at the pen
Corky Posted 26 December 2019 Posted 26 December 2019 Kasper, that is absolute bollocks. It wasn't a game at any point.

I remember travelling and watching us at Yeovil Town not so long ago, how far we have come as a club, I am still in dreamland, we will bounce back. No there was more to it than that, we looked devoid of energy, no pressing, no movement off the ball. Youri has been woeful, BR hasn't spotted tactical in game issues and corrected it. I think we have players that are better than the past few displays. There's problems and there's nothing wrong with being concerned

ealingfox Posted 26 December 2019 Posted 26 December 2019 We are basically a midtable outfit that beat the stats and the law of averages for a bit. Don't cry because it's over, smile because it happened. What we got out of it was a half-season free from the spectre of relegation, which is excellent, and the chase for Europe will probably go right up till the end of the season now which is good too. We will need another 10 wins to achieve that, hard to see where they are coming from at the moment, but it is still possible.
oohaahmustafa Posted 26 December 2019 Posted 26 December 2019 Liverpool are an absolute machine of team. No complaints. They deserve the league. Bonus points for singing **** the torys aswel. We're still better than at least 16 other teams in the league. Euro tour is on. Light show in the bin please.
splinterdream Posted 26 December 2019 Posted 26 December 2019 Just now, Corky said: Kasper, that is absolute bollocks. It wasn't a game at any point. I disagree, I thought 10 minutes before the penalty we just started to press the ball and have some success and then the penalty

Livid Posted 26 December 2019 Posted 26 December 2019 You don’t go on a run like Liverpool have without being an excellent side, that said aside from putting the ball in our own net we did pretty much all we could to help them out. We looked incredibly naive at times with our individual decision making and just as we had started to get a grip we gave away the penalty and wilted. The football juggernauts of Liverpool and Man City can rotate players when they need a big performance we’re not on that level, our starting eleven are good enough most weeks but the last two games we’ve just been steamrolled. At the start of the season I wouldn’t consider putting out a second string for Wigan but I think our midfield and Vardy would appreciate a week off.

Matt Posted 26 December 2019 Posted 26 December 2019 An embarrassing, disgusting, joke of a performance. Again we weren’t good enough, regardless of ‘how good’ Man City or Liverpool are/were we have to look at ourselves and ask were we good enough? The answer is no. People need to look at the bigger picture aswell I’m not just angry because we lost to Man City and Liverpool, it’s been happening for the last 6 games league games (5 - take Villa out of the equation, I rated that performance although think that says a lot about Villa) but we managed to get away with it against Everton, Watford and well a draw against Norwich (credit to them they deserved the point - if not more in all honesty). I don’t wanna blame the manager of pick individuals out but it’s the way it is and the situation we are in (in terms of form before someone points out we’re 2nd, I know that and that is great but on current form...) we are carrying a few players, I think a few players need to look in the mirror. As for Rodgers say what you like about Puel (and I’m was one of his biggest critics) these last 2 performances and tactics wouldn’t have happened under him - we may have underperformed in all the other games however I know I’ve gone on about being poor for the last 5 of 6 league games but the last 2 games certainly we played and set up as if we’re a team playing lower in the league trying to stay up - happy to defend and get whatever we can out of the game - in fact those ‘type’ of teams would show more fight I believe. Luckily Chelsea, Man Utd and Tottenham are a lot worse meaning we are where we are with Man City slightly better than us but not up to the standards they’ve set and then in all honesty I don’t think Liverpool have been that good on a whole - just similar to when we won the league everyone else hasn’t turned up. I’ve said it since we’ve been underperforming and I’ll say it again - hopefully we can use this a positive, something to learn from, make us more aggressive and angry with points to prove, help us push on but we’ve yet to do so - hopefully we sort that and get back into some form on Saturday.

Maybe people had other things they could be doing instead of watching us chase shadows and begging for the end of the game. Honestly this authoritarian bollocks about how fans should behave is getting really really boring.
Free Falling Foxes Posted 26 December 2019 Posted 26 December 2019 Decided to look amoungst our Christmas goodies for some comfort food after that showing. Almost polished - off a entire tin of short bread, now I feel sick. Football eh?
