Post match v Reading

[fatistuta]

We were ****e
So was the ref
They shouldn't of had a penalty
We could have had a penalty
Rafa made mistakes
We still should be able to win despite that
We were ****e
We were ****e
We were ****e

At least the mancs won't be able to break our undefeated run.

Rafa is still the only man to take us forward

We will win the league this season.

That is all.

[Red_hot]

this place is going to go mental if we don't win on Tuesday.

I don't think I will log on for at least a week if we lose. I can't stand it. I'm angry enough reading some of the ****e in here as it is. You wouldn't think it was our first defeat the way some are carrying on would you??

IT'S NOT THE END OF THE ****ING WORLD!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Today was just one of them days. Take it on the chin and come back punching even harder. Just like Ricky will tonight.

[bigfooty]

is he ever in position?
back to his usual today im afraid.

You do realise that since the start of the 2006-2007 season we have played something like 12 different players with Riise on the left? Aurelio, Kuyt, Bellamy, Crouch, Voronin, Gonzalez, Zenden, Garcia, Leto, Yossi, Babel, Kewell and maybe others at times also.

Imagine if we had that kind of turnover at CB, do you think our defence would be as solid as it generally has been?

It's no fluke that Riise had one of his better games linking up with Kewell against Bolton. Their partnership was a solid one in 2005-2006.

He said post-game that he didn't think he could change the match anymore so he was saving the players for the Tuesday game. It was a bit confusing, he was pretty much admitting the game was over.

thats not the liverpool way

and so I hope it's not what he was admitting...because if he was....but, nah, course he wasn't....

[blacky]

It's a very ****in big week for us now. No room for error. 2 wins no less.

[Kopite_Colin]

Spot on.

And again.

Rafa Benitez blamed a combination of poor refereeing and missed opportunities as Liverpool slumped to their first Premier League defeat of the season at Reading.
The hosts took the lead courtesy of a controversial Stephen Hunt penalty and after Steven Gerrard levelled for the Reds, they were denied a spot-kick of their own when Fernando Torres was brought down by Ibrahima Sonko.

It was a moment that Benitez felt turned the game as Reading went on to secure the points with second-half goals from Kevin Doyle and James Harper.

"I'm not happy with the decisions," said Benitez.

"But we also had chances that we didn't take and maybe that was the key.

"The difference was that one penalty was given and one was not. But we had the chances and we needed to take them, but in the end we didn't."

The Reds manager also defended his decision to substitute both Fernando Torres and Steven Gerrard, admitting that with the Reds trailing late in the match, his thoughts had switched towards the key Champions League clash with Marseille on Tuesday.

"We were losing 3-1 and so I was trying to protect the key players for the next game," he said.

"We had quality on the bench and we tried to change things with different players who had pace.

"It is an important week for us now and we have the Champions League match to look forward to. We must approach it with confidence and try to win.

"Only then can we think about Manchester United because you know my idea is to take one game at a time. The target is now Marseille."

Except for today, obviously, Rafa, when you, yet again, made drastic personel and system changes with the next game in mind.

He's got to be taking the piss or losing the plot.

Is this the best you can come up with? Petty insults. Pathetic really. You must have a really sad and shallow life.
