Lucas and zonal marking need to both be dropped! Swallow your pride Rafa, look at the amount of Bolton players in a six yard area for their goal, everyone has figured it out. Dont let your stubborness cost us points!

when will our stubborn manager drop this zonal marking bull, thats 6 goals conceded this season from deadball situations! All be it one pen and one shot from a free kick!

Liverpool Vs. Aston Villa Match Thread
darnells replied to jimbglanmire's topic in FF - Football Forum
We have two players we can rely on and they have been abysmal, Torres has looked out of sorts in the last 3 matches, yes he has scored two but he should have had 3 today. Gerrard, just lost too many 50 50s and made too many woeful passes. Rafa needs to try and loan in Van der Vaart and sign another striker, Voronin is not good enough. Lucas needs to be benched and Gerrard needs to drop in to replace him, play yossi in the hole! -
Liverpool Vs. Aston Villa Match Thread

get rid of Lucas, may not have been the only poor player but once again proves he is a liability. Zonal marking just needs to be eradicated, 4 goals conceded from set pieces, one may have come from an indirect shot but the others have come through routine play. -
My mate works for talksport and he told me earlier that Rafa had an argument with a money man at training then just stormed off and apparently one of the players called the presenter. However, he said they weren't sure on whether he has resigned. What i would say is that i have had a lot of "scoops" from him and he has been wrong loads so that's why i haven't been too concerned. As for PaddyPower, he is a friend of the show and is always on so it makes sense that they would withdraw bets on the basis of this information.

Rafa problem is judgement, Keane should not have been bought ahead of Asharvin, Barry should not have been coverted ahead of Alonso. Babel should either play right midfield or upfront or be sold, he is no left sided player - for him to be he would have to score goals when cutting in on his right which he does not do! Get out in the market and buy a centre forward, so we can vary the system and buy a central defender. NB it doesn't have to be from the english league!

Carragher and Skrtel commit too many free kicks in dangerous areas, this has been happening since last year! Carragher should not be guaranteed a start. Rafa needs to buy some offensive players, Torres cannot carry the burden on his own, N'Gog, Vorinin are simply not good enough. I look at other teams such as sunderland and its arguable that they have a better striking squad than we do! I wont labour the point but with better man-management Xabi would still be here, poor judgement from Rafa, Redknapp was spot on. How the hell Yossi didn't start was also a disgrace.

Fucking awful! passing is abysmal and as pointed out the midfield of mascherano and lucas provides little to nothing in terms of penetrating passes between the lines!
-
Arbeloa, Aurelio, Masch - should all sleep well tonight may be they will play with more concentration from now on, The chelsea matches obviously didn't wake up the defence. Get in Insua and sign Johnson, Arbeloa is nothing more than decent, always found out against top opposition, no pace and cannot cross for his life. Aurelio gives one good game then the rest average to poor, always a mistake in him. Monster was unfortuante but too many of our players dwell on the ball - Riera is the number one culprit
-
The offensive players were once again let down by woeful play from defensive players. Two goals were indiosyncratic of too many of our players - dwelling on the football in the premier league!!! Riera (especially), Alonso, Masch, Arbeloa are all guilty of just being to tentative at times. Torres, Yossi and Kuyt did not deserve to be on the losing side tonight at all. I honestly think we need fullbacks we can rely on. Manu are not going to drop 6 points, so this is another season where we will win nothing, it's not good enough for liverpool football club. No trophy since 2005. Why the hell we bought Keane when we could have got Asharvin is also beyond me!!!
-
He is decent but in big games constantly gets found out, either out of position or just poor play. Chelsea, champs league at anfield he went to sleep on Malouda. Last season champions league at the Bridge loses Kalou. Today, his tentative nature cost us again. I hear this good going forward but personally i think he is average going forward, his crosses rarely beat the first man. Get in Johnson! i say
-
Riera is a total whimp for someone quite big, his final ball is so frustrating!!!!:wallbutt:
-
Our finishing is abysmal as usual, it's just getting frustrating. Why didn't Yossi just shoot instead of overplaying as usual. We need to be sharper in the final third, bad mistake by monster he shouldn't just have handled the ball, when it rolled past him.
