Everton v Liverpool match thread

What a sh1te first half by the reds. Sissoko was awful and Mascherano is struggling to keep up with the pace.
The team looks void of ideas, short on confidence and tired. WTF is going on ?

Kuyt hasn't been much better, if at all.

Do people really think Rafa is the answer to us winning the league? I think how we perform in the second half will speak volumes.

If he doesn't make personel and tactical changes at halftime then big questions will be asked.

We don't deserve to be behind but we certainly didn't desreve to be infront either.

[The Erectile Banana]

Second half about to start.

No subs yet.

Give it ten mins before Babel or Pennant comes on?

[Dan]

why not just play our strongest 11?

works for Utd, Chelsea and Arsenal

I'm sick of this 5 or 10 minutes ****e. Make changes now Rafa, in 5 minutes we could be out of the game

[bigfooty]

No changes for second-half.

Its a blip and everyone has a blip but i wouldnt mind a blip if we were actually playing football and have a clue about what we want to achieve during the match.

Our Strikers apart from Torres and useless and are not going to do F all. We need better and its clear to see

[El Diego]

We've spent 120M and have failed to buy a single creative player who you could say demands a first team place in the current squad. Pennant can be effective but hasn't scored or created nearly enough, in fact it's almost 6 months since he last created a goal from the right side of the pitch. Babel is not a winger, nor is Yossi, and Gerrard cannot play there if we have a midfield of Mascher n Momo.

Pennant created the Yossi goal against Reading!!!!!

[Gazzla]

Rafa needs to walk in to the dressing room with a cattle prod and shove it up the arse of these ****ers to wake them up. We should not be losing to these talentless *****

[ronan]

same 11
****s sake
kuyt and sissoko are ****ing useless
kuyt has 50p's welded to his boots
no creativity
gonna be a ****e weekend

[CharlieMansonsSquint]

No changes at halftime. ****ing ridiculous.

[Kaip]

11 reds on the pitch and only Benayoun looks like creating something

[JPK]

my prediction, 60 mins off comes sissoko, then about 70 mins off comes kuyt, with probably voronin off last, we'll end up playing crouch up top with pennant and babel on the wings.

If it was me i'd throw babel up front now and say here's your chance lad, show us what you can do

He needs to take a leaf out of Jose's book with his substitutions I think.
Your predictions will probably be spot on.

I think the players are more responsible for their performance. It's too easy to blame Rafa.....Sack Sissoko, says I!!!!

[Gazzla]

No changes for second-half.

FFS

he'd probably walk in and just batter Riise with it
