Liverpool vs United FA Cup

[magicrat]

Poor by Enrique

[Unrighteous]

Cunt.

[Il Fenomeno]

Enrique needs to stop pissing about with the ball and trying to dribble it out. He should've just whacked that into the stand.

[Elite]

that had been coming, we cant just sit back. Take the game to these fuckers.

[Lee909]

Enrique been poor for last few weeks now.

[ngogswilly]

We need to sort this formation out or we're getting beat here.

 

We just arn't in this game at all.

[JagSquared]

I love enrique, but his form has been patchy the last few weeks. Need him to regain that composure again. Poor touch and their right hand side profited again.

 

Although I guess us sitting back so much meant that it was coming. We need to let go a bit and try and create.

[Special K]

We need to attack them. Sit back and they will score. That was coming

[Lee909]

Maxi far too slow all game.

[silverlining]

Deserved equaliser

We need to get Bellamy and Adam on for Readysalted and maxi, who have both been abysmal

[Il Fenomeno]

We need to sort this formation out or we're getting beat here.

 

We just arn't in this game at all.

 

Agreed. I don't see what Carragher is adding in this position to the team that Shelvey or Adam couldn't personally.

 

BTW, did anyone see Downing just bottle that challenge then when Gerrard laid him off? That's not what we need in these type of games.

[FrenchEyeGlass]

Downing shat himself there. Get fucking stuck in. Im also confused as to why we have two back fours.

[s(k)aturation]

I'm afraid it's gonna have to be Bellamy in the last 20 mins.

 

If we're still in the game then.

[2pak]

Its as if we are playing a man short here.

[Lee909]

Fucking awful this,no attacking threat and clueless in the middle

[FrenchEyeGlass]

We can't give Carrick Giggs and Scholes so much time. They are slow, old fuckers but they'll pick out a pass given the opportunity. Surely the best tactic to adopt is fire and fury, get in amongst them and not give them a minute. Second half come on lads, pick it up.

[LFC 6 Times]

Stupid goal to give away, completely our own fault, these cunts look like creating nothing for themselves.

[TheDrowningMan]

Kenny needs to be bold and make changes at half-time - none of the naive "leave it until 70 minutes" crap.

 

He could also do with watching some tapes of Benitez era Liverpool. Whatever his failings, Rafa knew how to set a team up to pressure and press opponents. We haven't seen nearly enough of that since. We've been every bit as bad as we were against Bolton today, but luckily this United team isn't their quickest, and that's why we're not two or three down at half-time. We are affording them a comical amount of space.

Looks like we're set up for a draw, which we even can't get if we play with no attacking threat. Once the Scum have scored, they are going to get more sooner of later. Bring on Bellamy, our only available threat, who can do something on the counter.

[Evil_Ways]

We need to take over the game. Utd are passing around us in midfield, we need to up the tempo and pass and move at a higher tempo. I'd bring on Adam and possibly Bellamy if he feels fit enough.

[Guest LFD]

Showing United too much respect.

 

Get Carroll off - he can't hold the ball up for shit, he only did it once that half when Gerrard shot wide... otherwise he got out muscled all the time. Kuyt at least will hold the ball up.

 

Bring on Bellamy whenever we can - he needs to play at least 30 minutes.

 

United have had lots of possession but haven't really done much, but then again nor have we.

 

I think only Valencia looks threatening, otherwise they don't have anything. Play higher up the field, get a striker who can keep the ball and test that shit De Gea - because he is shit!

[elvis]

Absolute shambolic tactics, the oldest average age of any midfield I can remember and the worst utd team I have seen for donkeys years.

What the fuck is carragher doing in that position, stroll on.

[Lurtz]

Downing losing posession with predictable regularity.

Enrique has gone to shit today.

Maxi ineffective.

The pony tailed waste of space - a complete mystery to me why he's even on the pitch other than to stand in front of their keeper.

Rafael has had the measure of Gerrard so far.

 

We need to get fucking hold of this. It's there for the taking, we need to tighten up our passing becasue is stinks so far.

[Jennings]

This United team is for the taking...

...but we are playing to their strengths. 1 up top; sitting deep; not pressuring the ball.

 

Play to our strengths. Fight. Win.

 

Maxi off for Bellamy. Henderson for Kuyt.

[Newport]

Bring on Bellamy and Kuyt for Carroll and Downing after about 60 minutes and we'll do them.
