Game Thread: v Birmingham (a)

[Rex Banner]

We're getting worse every game. No creativity or energy at all, Hodgson is getting on my tits.

[Mojo]

We need the Greek on for Skrtel, and for Gerrard to get into midfield, so Ngog or Babel can come on for liability Lucas

[Johnni]

Skrtel is a fucking mare.

 

Fixed.

[ZonkoVille77]

As expected really. tripe.

Lucas, Johnson and Torres are having nitemares.

Nobody except Pepe and Carra give a fuck anymore and it shows. terrible.

[Wor Horse]

fucking sort it out roy you fucking speech impediment mong

 

you fucking slovak cunt

 

Our defence is suspect to fuck, 2 be honest everyone is apart from reina !

The budgie faced cunt needs to change the system !!!!

 

Best fans in the world.

[Frankenhooker]

Abysmal to a man (maybe Jovanovic excepted). There is seriously something wrong, there is no cohesion, players playing to casually, a complete lack of shape and the defending has been piss poor. Skrtel is having a mare but Carragher isn't excused he's being dragged all over the place. If it wasn't for Pepe we'd be out of sight. Shameful.

[Judge]

You can`t blame individual players after this. Gerrard and Maxi has no support with that awful CM. Worst half I can remember seeing, and I have seen some really bad shit in recent years. If Woy doesn`t change the set-up immediately i will be very worried about his way of thinking football.

[Redder Lurtz]

I ate a stinkingly hot curry last night. The resulting turd I pushed out this morning had more creativity and less sloppiness to it than every player we've got out there today bar Pepe. What a pile of fucking wank.

[MLB]

New season, new manager, same old negative shite. It really is depressing watching us these days. Why can't we have a manager who gets us passing and moving and at least TRYING to assert ourselves on the opposition? I actually feel embarrassed watching us. There is not one iota of pace, movement or creativity in midfield. It is blindingly obvious that this line up is not going to get us anything out of the game, it was obvious even before the kick off to anyone with a fucking brain. So what was the intention? Have we really been reduced to attempting to secure a 0-0 draw against fucking Birmingham? Two holding midfielders might be acceptable if, say, you have two world class holding midfielders. We, however, have Lucas and Poulsen, who are complete dogshit and mediocre respectively. And we are going to lose this game unless we change that soon.

[llego]

hodgson- hmm maybe nows the time for brad jones to get some match fitness

[Captain]

We've be shit. There is no other way to put it. I have no idea what our tactics are, because I see no plan here. Just like there are no shots on goal for us.

 

And as if that wasn't bad enough, it seems we can't defend properly either. We're very fortunate not to be at least a goal behind here.

 

Thank fuck for Pepe, two absolute masterclass saves he pulled off there.

[Phoenix]

Wtf is Poulson about? everyone is going on about Lucas but surely this guy has been just as bad

[JermainePennant]

We need to push up...thats the biggest problem.

 

Sitting back and allowing Birmingham City control the game.

 

Exactly I hated this deep defending under houllier and I am hating it under roy, we played a high line under rafa, this sitting back puts us under more pressure and gives shit players more chances as they dont have to try as hard to stay onside.

[Tyler Durden]

Probably the worst midfield pairing we've had for a while, completely devoid of any creativity, what exactly has changed since last year ?

[Ryehauge]

We're being outplayed by a team with Lee Fucking Bowyer. It really is sad to see us play that shite. Lucas and Skrtel are as awful as always but Gerrard is shocking aswell. Pepe is saving us from a humiliation.

 

Get off Lucas and let Mereiles gets his debut. We can't do anything that would make it worse than first half. Come on Roy, do something.

[Kevin D]

" They've got 25 men in the middle and two immobile and suspect full-backs, you thinking what I'm thinking?"

"I see where you're going with this. Get at them through the middle, it's the last thing they'll expect"

"Bingo."

[05 Milan]

For a team clearly performing way below average last season, it's taking very long for Hogson to at least manage one performance above average. So far we're worse than last season, and that's really saying something.

 

Need to pick this up in the 2nd half. Just show some intent, and beat this awful hoof-ball playing pile of shite Brum team.

[King Gheedorah]

What the fuck is roy doing before games because he certainly isnt preparing or motivating the team, another fucking dreadful first half under roy, we are getting dominated by brum ffs.

 

Gives them a Werthers Originals each and tells them that winning is not important but taking part is.

[MLB]

Skrtel & lucas need to be subbed

 

 

Agreed. Skrtel for Agger (who can actually pass), and Lucas for Meireles. I would do it at half time personally but the way things have gone so far under Roy, I wouldn't expect to see it until the 70th minute or when we actually go behind.

[a stoner]

fucking sort it out roy you fucking speech impediment mong

 

I really hope noone knows who you actually are. All your comments are about as offencive as they can be. Your a vile person.

[Mark M]

No shots on target, should be 3 down if it wasnt for pepe.... please please please please roy take off lucas never play him again and throw meriles in.. maxi has been shit too doesnt like the physical side of the game.

[Phoenix]

Exactly I hated this deep defending under houllier and I am hating it under roy, we played a high line under rafa, this sitting back puts us under more pressure and gives shit players more chances as they dont have to try as hard to stay onside.

 

They both have the same ideas on football...just hope Roy doesnt follow the houllier philosophy of having at least six men behind the ball at all times.

[big4damlfc]

fucking sort it out roy you fucking speech impediment mong

 

you fucking slovak cunt

 

Best fans in the world.

 

Just pissed off that's toned down from what I'm really thinking !

[Strontium]

It's not often our man of the match is settled by half-time.

[Johnni]

Wtf is Poulson about? everyone is going on about Lucas but surely this guy has been just as bad

 

Thank you. Fucking tired of people just lazily having a pop at Lucas when Poulsen is just as bad this season. Poulsen playing in his favoured position whereas Lucas is'nt and he would admit he should'nt be there.
