getting out of jail

[Colemere]

The player the came on for Gerrard played really well, and was denied a winning goal by a hand on the line, which then gave us a pen and then the win.

Aye, Terrible decision

Was a great save by Neville though...



...Neville for England

[carrsim]

gerrard turned up in the second half if you ask me.

it was a big call by the gaffer, and had phil neville not done a neville southall (see what i did there?) lucas would have scored the winner

its ****ing liverpool fc, not steven gerrard fc and i for one am ****ed off that our whole ****ing build up and post match is what steven gerrard does, where he plays, if he scratches his arse, if he picks his nose, or if he bothers to play as well as he can for 90 ****ing minutes.

well done rafa. you're the ****ing boss, its your ****ing neck on the line and good for you.

we were ****- stevie included, but how many saves did reina need to make?

**** everton, **** moyes and **** everyone else who ****ing moans after a derby win away from hom

[Flake]

benitez was very very lucky today. If he had lost this game and then had negative results against besiktas and arsenal his position would be questioned by the board no doubt.

We never sacked our managers unless it was the absolute last resort. Dont forget that the old regime of Moores and parry no longer run liverpool and there is a higher authority that demands success. The well of patience is not bottomless and Benitez probably doesnt have as much time as he thinks.

Nevertheless, take a deep breath lads and lets keep the faith

Rafa showed balls today.

He took off Gerrard who hasn't played well in about six weeks, and put on a player whose shot resulted in Neville P being sent off and a match winning penalty to us.
I'm not in the RCDNWB but he's sure got big balls.

It's about Liverpool FC, not Steven Gerrard.

Exactly. Stevie wasn't setting the world alight with his performance today (apart from winning us the peno). To be fair to Stevie, he seemed to take it on the chin.

I agree but Gerrards drive is what brought us back into the game. Momo should have been taken off for Lucas. If Gerrard was having a shocker like Finnan or Momo then yeah no problem with Rafa taking him off, it was just a really strange decision.

[Tom]

Obviously taking gerrard off was the right thing to do. Our passing and link-up play was better, lucas caused the winning pen. Rafa was proved right.
Btw. just got a text off my mate, right behind the goal, lescott leaned into carra and then threw himself on the ground. It wasn't a pen at the end.

should sissoko not have been the one going off though?

[Morten_nogamst_Pedersen]

WTF Rafa!

You high on beetle juice(see his red tung)!
Subbing Gerrard instead of moron Sissoko. How can you reason that?

[Reece]

Just what was needed, another thread

[Jayesh87]

Stevie was playing with his heart and not his head, Rafa wanted to calm things down and have more intelligent play

[Tom]

Gerrard was losing the ball high up the field when we needed to retain it to cause pressure. Right call by rafa.

2-1

3 points

stevie with a point to prove in the next 2 massive games

momo given a confidence boost by not being subbed at half time (when he could have been)

there's 4 good reasons
