Team & Match Thread Vs Arsenal 09 Jan

[mersey86]

Jerzy's miracle save and penalty heroics in Istanbul will forever massively overshadow this sad week for him.
YNWA Jerzy - always up there in LFC folklore.

Four ****ing shots.

I'd love to see the stats for the game so far. Has anybody got them?

We have had plenty of the ball but are 4-1 down. This is a very strange result.

we have had 7 shots 4 on 3 off they have had 4 shots

Here, mate.

[Agger the Dagger]

Get JAGIELKA NOW!!!

[Bob]

You must be joking? Do you think Dudek lets every single shot in in training? This is Dudek's fault.

No. I put people in contracts at my work regularly... If put someone in as incompetent as performance as Dudeks i'd expect at least 'some' come back. To say is this ain't Rafa's fault at all is bewildering... especially after the last game.

Who knows what hes like in training? Anyway i'm not picking a fight, i just found your post amusing.

[Shaggy]

Feel sorry for the fans. Twice in 4 days.

Glad I didn't bother with the ****ing restricted view ticket now. ****s sake.

[Biff]

The problem is that Rafa promised Dudek that he would play. If Rafa had broken that promise then he could have got more problems than just losing a cup game or two.

Yeah...Dudek would have sulked and Rafa just couldn't handle that.......

Promises my arse, after that performance on Saturday he didn't deserve to play tonight and he couldn't have argued if he'd been dropped

[CharlieMansonsSquint]

All I'm saying Niall is that the press will go chasing him after this. He picks the team and the buck stops with him. The press will lay into him.

Fair enough for Dudek.

But Arsene Wenger has picked a shawdow side as well.

Look at it from Rafa's perspective, yes Dudek is shaky, but you can't account for him throwing a couple in like that.

Makes you wonder if some Oriental betting syndicate has gotten to him.

Other than that it's been an even game.

The one positive I can see coming from this is that this should be Dudeks last game for LFC. Ship him out and get Carson back.

I ain't fighting mate, but it wasn't ****ing amusing. How the hell can anyone BUT Dudek be held accountable for that disaster? He's had seven shots to save in one and a half games and let them all in. All of them.

[andyinswinton]

I can't remember many worse results than this. Its ****ing embarassing.

Hopefully some good will come of this though. Rafa will stop rotating for rotation sake, we will sign some quality players to improve the team and hopefully those that aren't good enough will be out of the door sooner rather than later.

Well it was idiotic for Rafa to promise him those games. Also un-professional. This is a professional Football club not a Sunday League team.

[kurtangle01]

Madness isn't it?

[Red_Al_77]

He runs a football team, not a home for the over sensitive. People have spent good money. They aren't concerned with his promises, they want to see us win.
