Over-reaction? I think so

[JermainePennant]

How can people want rafa gone?He is up there with the best managers in the world and has achieved what he has with a lot less then most of the others.

Noone really cares about the carling cup and this should give us a better chance of finishing third with less games then arsenal,

As for the game itself if you look at the goals I very much doubt we would have conceded most of them with our first team out.

People calling for rafas head is crazy, we could not get another manager that is in his class and I think we should be doing our best to keep him as there are a lot of other top teams in europe wold love to have him.

no problem

look if this was on at 7pm, i can assure you i would have watched it, but i knew we would be fielding an under-strength team and TBH that really doesnt entice me to get up at 3am to watch us. Dont get me wrong i LOVE liverpool, but the CC doesnt mean as much as the FA Cup or Premier league does it.

Fair play to the people that went to the game and "sung their hearts out". You should be so lucky, if i lived anywhere near Liverpool i would go to the games. But the fact is i live on the other side of the globe, and its just not possible. Ive only ever been once, and i watched us lose to Southampton at home in Houlliers last season.....i still thouroughly enjoyed every part of that day though...because i got to watch the Reds play.

Did you watch Holby City instead.

As a Liverpool fan every match we play in is important to me regardless of what competetion it's in or what players wear the shirt. Maybe that's just me though, eh?

Do you know what mate? You must be some kind of WUM. When you've paid your hard earned cah to go and watch that then come back and tell people they're over reacting.

It's only the CC is the most lame and ****test excuse I've heard. It's the sort of thing you hear from a manc.:whatever:

come of it, you know im not a WUM. Im just trying to show some perspective here.

i pay hard earned cash to watch us play aswell...to watch football in OZ you have to subscribe to pay TV...which when you are a student, has you scraping the bottom of the barrel for every last penny mate......dont make your life sound so hard cause we lost.....just thank your lucky stars you get to go to watch the Reds play at Anfield, because sadly many people cannot

Judge John Deed. He's a judge on the edge you know.

[redlancer]

stop over reacting:whatever:

I'll send you a tape of the match, whats the address

"I prefer to be on an internet forum than watch the match"
anywhere but Anfield


Again the fans did us proud i'm pissed off cos we shouldn't off allowed that defence against that team.
The KOP were great again and even in a humiliating defeat still sang and supported our team
I bet there's a lot of Arseanl fans going away who can't believe the support we give our players

but hold on its only the CC.
FFS we lost and twice in 4 days

i dont even know who the **** that it Dan

A few points about tonights debacle.
1) Rafa ballsed up with his team selection. End of. We should have played our strongest 11 as the Carling Cup was our best chance of winning a trophy. Sure its not as prestegious as The CL or FA Cup but a final against Chelsea was in the offing. If we don't beat Barcalona, our season is over except for battling for 3rd or 4th. We can beat barca but lets face it, we go into the game as 2nd favourites. we needed to win tonight & Rafa's team selection was very poor.

2) Despite the team selection it was still an abject effort. Paletta yet again looked out of his depth. Dudek had a shocker as well. Our 2nd string was made to look very ordinary compared to theirs.

3) Rafa deserves criticism tonight but any talk of his position being under threat is well wide of the mark. He's still a top class manager but he's human, he makes mistakes & tonight he cocked up.

everthin' i wanted to say H9 mate
but i will add to it a bit. Rafa cocked up the whole week starting from the fa cup game.

Who said my life was hard? I'm just gutted with that tonight and rightly so. Questions need to be asked about the performance and having admitted to not seeing the match I hardly think that your in a position to judge whether people are over reacting.

nicly put

what gets me is we didn't need to put out our best 11, just a good foundation.

we should of been going for the 1st and last team to play Cardiff

anywhere but Anfield

but hold on its only the CC.
FFS we lost and twice in 4 days

i live in australia, it is not possible for me to get to the games every week

also im not sure if you are aware of "time difference" see us folk here in Oz are about 10hrs ahead of you lot, so when a game is on at 3pm there, its 1am here

Which makes it worse IMHO.

you mean in Australia when its light over here its dark over there

next you'll tell me its hot when we have snow

its your the CC isn't important, stop over reacting, etc etc and you didn't even watch it, you just woke up and saw the score.
Anfield was packed and a sell out against a long standing rival. Isn't important my arse

fair enough, ill just shut the **** up then.

you guys are making it sound like its a chore to sing when we are losing, but just think about how lucky you are to be able to watch us play every game live
