Middlesbrough v Liverpool match thread

[bigfooty]

If this performance continues we really have to take a long hard look at ourselves because the team has broken down as a unit completely.

Torres wins a free-kick.

[Bari]

we'll win 1-2 or 1-3

[AussieKewell]

Won't be long before its 2 nil

[Red_Al_77]

If the players continue in this vain they will eventually cost the manager his job. The players have been ****e today.

[glynner]

apart from that Gerrard shot

true, that's been our only moment so far

[Marky]

Jesus Christ.

[CharlieMansonsSquint]

It needs to be explained to me.

If you're going to hoof the ball from back to front constantly, why start with Torres and Voronin against two CB's who are 6 foot ****in 4? Why isn't Crouch in the squad?

Get Riise off please for Babel.

[bigfooty]

Riise and Gerrard over the free-kick, taken wide to Finnan, his shot is deflected but keeper gets down to save well.

[blacky]

We will struggle for 4th spot if this continues

[Jayesh87]

We are playing **** again today.

Hard to watch

[kopash]

I'm sorry but Riise is ****

[glynner]

ffs riise

floats an easy ball into Schwartzer when he had time to pick out a cross

[Kaip]

ffs riise

[Flake]

get to the ****ing by-line riise

[Bob]

done more than torres though

Aye, but he's the point striker and he's getting **** all in the way of service.

He'll have to drop deeper to get any action and we don't want that at all. We're barely even in this game.
