Lukaku was at Stamford bridge in the summer in chelsea shirt looks like a non starter then.. True colours! Chelsea boosted in race for Romelu Lukaku after wonderkid is snapped wearing a Blues shirt | Mail Online

Ajax playing gala in a friendly tonight, Suarez not in the line up - he played in last weeks friendly against hamburg.

the anonymous midfield was the problem, not the defence.

the bottom line is that we have far too many players that should never be anywhere near a Liverpool squad let alone team. I honestly cannot believe we have fallen so far so fast

the shape of the team was wrong. There was far too much room in midfield for them, it was criminal - thats what exposed the back four.

Fuck me mate we were only 2-1 down against Blackpool, hardly a lost cause.

personally Id like to see Kelly at RB and Johnson on the wing. Think we need to give Babel a run on the left - we must have the slowest team in the premier league by a mile and at least babel has got pace.

Reina Lucas the rest were shite, cant see how Torres could get in there. Great goal but constantly failed to hold it up and gave the ball away including for the equaliser with his poor pass to Meireles

I agree with the sentiment but dont understand why Maxi didnt come on for Jovanovic and why Ngog didnt come on earlier, we were chasing the game and doing absolutely nothing offensively it was crying out for changes thats all

if Hodgson had sent out that team and made those decisions re substiutions during the game we'd be crucifying him right now

worryingly, why did kenny leave Jovanovic on for 90 minutes, Poulsen for 85 and why was Maxi dropped, more questions than answers Im afraid.

Adebayor,cunt of a man but quality player

Adebayor on loan would be immense as a start. Cunt of a man but just what we need on the pitch

I dont get slating Roy. He was just out of his depth, job far too big for him and he should never have been appointed. All the best at West Ham !!

thanks for the memories...

Owners turn the heat on Roy Hodgson as Anfield civil war looms Tony Barrett 1 minute ago Liverpool’s owners are running out of patience with Roy Hodgson. The Fenway Sports Group (FSG) wants to see a revival in fortunes on the field or the manager may face the consequences. While sympathetic with the challenges that Hodgson has faced since taking over as Liverpool manager from Rafael Benítez last July, FSG is concerned that the 63-year-old has yet to deliver. While the Americans remain reluctant to make a managerial change halfway through the season, they are believed to have been far from impressed with Hodgson’s suggestion that he hoped the club’s “fans would become supporters” after the dismal 1-0 home defeat to Wolverhampton Wanderers on Wednesday. Hodgson will face the press again today ahead of Liverpool’s home match with Bolton Wanderers tomorrow. He must produce a much improved performance from his side to stop his position becoming untenable. Liverpool already have their lowest points total going into the new year since the 1953-54 season, which ended in relegation. Since their takeover of Liverpool in October, FSG has placed great store by its relationship with the club’s fans and have demanded that the lead they have taken on this front is followed at all levels. The manager’s reaction to chants calling for his removal has put him at odds with his employers and their direction. John W. Henry and Tom Werner, the FSG founders, have not wavered in their public support of Hodgson despite him not being appointed by them. Their backing, however, has been put to its most serious test by almost total breakdown in the former Fulham manager’s relationship with the Liverpool supporters. In the immediate aftermath of the loss to Wolves, Hodgson made plain his dissatisfaction at the lack of support he is receiving from the Liverpool fans — chants of “Hodgson for England” resounded around Anfield during Liverpool’s fourth defeat in their last six Barclays Premier League matches — stating that he has had to make do with the backing of his players. “I have been lucky the support I have had has been from the players and within the club,” Hodgson said. “I haven’t had a lot of support from the fans ever since I came here. “The fans have not been happy with what they have seen in the whole of 2010 and since I came here we have not won enough games to keep them happy. “That is understandable in the sense that they were hoping when I came here the latter part of last season would be forgotten and we would start flying again. That hasn’t happened and as a result, as manager, you are the one in the firing line, but of course it doesn’t make the job easier because it makes the players more nervous. “I can only say as a manager you have to understand that fans care for their club and want it to do well and when it is not doing well they voice their disapproval.” One departure from Liverpool has already been confirmed with Eduardo Macia, the club’s chief scout, leaving by mutual consent. Macia’s exit is not unexpected and has been seen as a formality after the arrival of Damien Comolli as director of football strategy in November.

If city are stupid enough to let Johnson go we should definitely take him. No Brainer, he's quality and just what we havent got - pace, trickery and someone who can actually beat a man.

obvious, he's in line for the blackburn job!! Id take him back in a heartbeat

I know hes not DM but I thought he was central?? Ibrahim Afellay (born 2 April 1986 in Utrecht) is a Dutch footballer of Moroccan descent (Rif region) playing for PSV Eindhoven in the Eredivisie. He has played for the Dutch national youth team and is now part of the senior Dutch national team, who he represented at the 2010 FIFA World Cup in South Africa. He usually plays as the centre attacking midfielder for PSV Eindhoven but can also play at the right or left side due to his creative qualities. In 2007, Afellay was awarded the Johan Cruijff Award for "Young Player of the Year" in the Netherlands.

another CM- could we get masch back on the cheap?

was that tweeted by tomkins?? whats the maheshchandra bit??

any re finance has to be agreed by the board, didnt Purslow say that? in which case theyve got no fucking chance 11. Can you, Ian Ayre or Martin Broughton oppose the refinancing of the debt by the current owners? "Again, any incurrence of indebtedness by Liverpool Football Club needs full Board approval. The non-owner directors have made it clear that's not what we want to see happen."

the fact that the board are all still there must mean something could yet still happen tonight

nothing surprises me anymore, can he just keep gaining restraining orders in every state?? who the hell knows?

its an absolute outrage. Fucking tin pot court can block the high court ruling effectively, fucking shambles
