    Did you actually watch the Inter game? If thats cautious then I'd love some more of that please.
    We had 70% possession and were playing 424 at the end. Cautious my ass.

        And why was that? Because they were under relentless pressure from the first second from our "caution"

        You moan when he rotates or swaps formations, we beat Inter, keep the same team and formation with only one enforced change and what do you do? Moan some more. The man can't win.

          Inter were undone by the pace of Torres as they pushed up the pitch. That's how Materazzi got his bookings. Boro aren't likely to be sucked in because they a) have played us already this season and b) don't come to Anfield unbeaten in 5 months and arguably the form team in Europe.

            Just believe and you never know what will happen.

            According to Benitez it's important not simply to go out to win but to go out prepared to win, which means players have to put in the same level of work on a daily basis. Anything else is unacceptable.

                  Agree we were so cautious would could only get 25 shots off.

                    Torres has struggled recently because a lot of teams have figured out that if you give him space in behind he'll murder you. The same way Owen used to do. Inter however were confident they could come to Anfield and beat us so when they did push up they were left exposed. As soon as Materazzi was sent off Inter shuffled back, limited the space in behind and Torres became less effective.

                      Arbeloa in for Carragher - more rotation!
                      I'm playing all the right notes. Not necessarily in the right order. I'll give you that, sunshine.

                          Tell me you're joking
                          I could not dig, I dared not rob:
                          Therefore I lied to please the mob.
                          Now all my lies are proved untrue
                          And I must face the men I slew.

                            5 of those were in the first 30 minutes. 20 in the last 60 minutes. That suggests to me that, up until the sending off, we were not exactly gung-ho.

                                I think I have to agree, sadly he hasn't reached the heights of his first season with us with is still a class midfielder and will be immense for whichever team is lucky enough to get him.

                                Also no Pennant on the bench and his chances are looking increasingly slim, are his days numbered as well?
