LFC v. Derby match thread

[Kenneth]

SopCast dies on me again and babel immediately scores. Great.

Into the final minute of the half, can't see there being too much injury time.

Babel coming infield for the ball and ends up in the centre of the box. Stays there.

The guy just is not a winger, but he is a goal scorer!

Great ball in, Arbeloa takes his time, pulls it back, Babel remains composed to put 2 defenders on their backsides and rifles it right foot past the keeper.

Striker - maybe.
Winger - No.

Would you not think perhaps due to his age and how long he's been with the team he deserves a bit of time to prove himself?

[bazza76]

That'll excuse his poor performance

Not in Rafa's book I bet, Rafa will have plenty to say to him about running into culdesac's giving the ball away so uch and not playing to other players around him soon enough.

[JohnDoe]

Pennant has been nothing short of outstanding.

You can stick Quaresma up your arse.

[red g]

jeez !!!! if the scores stay like this we will be top of the league for the first time since 2002!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

****in hell thats ridiculous !!

[Sarb]

bigfooty, cheer up mate. We're not doing too badly. Played Villa away, Sunderland away, dominated both games, dominated Chelsea at home and now playing well again....just look on the bright side

[CharlieMansonsSquint]

What a ****in goal that was.

The feint and finish. Brilliant.

[cobain]

all you Babel doubters can eat dirt

He is class but he ain't no winger though

He reminds so much of Cissé when he plays down the flank. No creativity whatsover, just the same old move every time. Great to see him score!

Rafa, please don't play Babel on the wing, play him behind the strikers

[justcruisin]

Kuyt sounds like he's having a **** time.

why is that shocking to you?????

[Subby]

means **** all this time of year except to the supporters, come april if we're still there I'll be happy

[marcus50bucks]

Babel's goal was quality.

We don't need another winger, we have PENNANT! He's been outstanding today.

[carlton]

Haha. That's class...Babel right on cue. People should back the team rather than flipping moaning all the time!

[cobain]

Pennant has been nothing short of outstanding.

You can stick Quaresma up your arse.

I agree

He improved so much, it's unbelievable. 6.7 mio well spent I say. We don't need a right winger to play in the starting eleven, all we need is a back-up for Pennant.

Rafa, please don't play Babel on the wing, play him behind the strikers

I just think we should give him a bit of time befor we judge him, he's only played a couple of games in a new league plus he's only 20 years old

[anfieldanfield]

Wow, what a great first half. Absolutely dominant.

If only Dirk could finish! Arghhh

I'm not going to complain though, a great all round display. Pennant has impressed me hugely, he's running the show.

Great goal from Babel. So calm, so assured, so confident.

If we really want it, we can score two or three more in the second half.
