Reading Match Thread

We fucking battered them and created chance after chance. I don't see how anyone can blame Rodgers for this one because I'm not sure what much more he could have done.

 

Agreed. It won't stop them, though.

[Red Banjo]

I know what will cure this...

 

Ashley Williams. I hope we blow our entire transfer budget on him. Lets not address the problems.

[J-V]

We played well will be the mantra. Well I fucking expect us to outplay the shittest team in the league soon to be championship shite. Bad day in the office, a wee bit of luck. Er no, people just not being good enough from top to bottom.

 

Is right.

[Jairzinho]

On the positives that is two clean sheets, and an unbeaten run of two games.

 

And we've reached the magical fifty point mark with five games to spare.

[Gym Beglin]

That's what they do in training: try to hit the goalkeeper as many times as they can.

 

I've seen video footage of Gerrard teaching kids how to shoot, and he says that he always aims at the goalkeeper because the ball tends to end up swerving away.

 

Fuck it, sack Rodgers and play this team next time.

442, back to basics, get the ball out wide and twat it between the keeper and the penalty spot.

You cant teach old dogs new tricks, and this is the 442 generation, from the country that embraces 442, where the players have grown up playing 442 from age 6.

 

I don't remember my sports teacher telling us that we're going to be playing a false nine.

[moof]

Why did we only make one substitution?

 

Er, did you see the bench?

[Jairzinho]

Er, did you see the bench?

 

Yes, I did.

I can't wait for the season to be over, not because I'm not enjoying myself but because I'm excited about comparing our points total to last season. It's going to be a joy to behold.

 

SEE, WE HAVE IMPROVED ON LAST SEASON.

 

Can not wait.

[xerxes]

What else could we do against that?

 

Score against the worst team in the league?

[Fugitive]

They're the worst team in the league.

 

Explain to me what else Rodgers could have done today? We had countless chances to score but we wasted them. How is that Rodgers fault? The leagues top scorer was on the pitch and even he was wasteful.

[Bobby Hundreds]

Better team this season my arse.

[YNWAViking]

15 shots on goal, no goals. Fuck me.

 

We seriously gotta up our composure in front of goal. Not shooting straight at the keeper = good. Aiming & hitting the keeper every fucking time = not good.

 

Man what a frustrating game.

If we get 53 points that is progress. Fuck context, fuck trophies, and fuck the fact that we're still completely fucking shit.

Couldn't agree more.

[Walton Park]

Its becoming a very disappointing season. If the owners are happy with it I am afraid we are always going to be an average team.

 

Has anyone got Ancelotti or Mourihnos number?

[moof]

Yes, I did.

 

And which one of them do you think was more likely to get a goal than Suarez, Sturridge, Coutinho or Gerrard?

[mike23]

Infuriating game. I can only assume it's because I was daft enough to bet on us that we didn't win so sorry about that. Otherwise one of those chances would surely have gone in. Some amazing saves from the keeper - the one from Gerrard in particular was just unbelievable. Having said that though some of our finishing and decision making in the final third of the field were actually criminal against a team who seemed to spend most of the match just asking us to score. Unfair to maybe single one player out from that performance but Sturridge after his bright start has been crap for some time now. Maybe we decided to draw 0-0 on purpose just to end any chance of getting in that pesky Europa League next season.

[Biscao]

That was jolly disappointing.

Haha! :)

Assaidi? You been smoking crystal Meth?

[Guest ShoePiss]

Suarez had a good game and got a lot of shots on target, didn't see him as wasteful really.

 

We had chances because they're fucking dire, really shit. We lacked desire, we didn't keep the pressure up for long enough. We didn't care.

 

Rodgers has given his blessing for this kind of thing.

[Gym Beglin]

We're not a million miles off being a very good team. Then again, almost any Premiership team can say that.

 

If we bought a couple of decent attacking players, for example Arjen Robben and Robert Lewandowski, we'd be 20 points better off a season.

 

Make half a yard, bullet shot on target, someone following up in the box.

[xerxes]

And we've reached the magical fifty point mark with five games to spare.

 

It is part of Brendan's strategy for us NOT to qualify for the EL so we can be free to launch a title bid without that distraction.

[Hades]

The reluctance to change anything annoyed me as much the poor finishing today. Why not let Suarez roam the wing and leave Sturridge at centre forward. It worked well against Arsenal and City but he's not brave enough to try it against Reading?

 

Really can't understand the point of Downing, he does fuck all. Would rather have kept Henderson on and unleashed Gerrard further forward.

[Strontium]

Reading's keeper is not shit, he's one of the best young English goalies around.

[Jairzinho]

And which one of them do you think was more likely to get a goal than Suarez, Sturridge, Coutinho or Gerrard?

 

Why would you have to make a like for like change?
