Liverpool vs Middlesborough Match Thread

[Yozza]

No but an arm is still deemed handball.

[Nic83]

It's just not good enough - we're only winning 2-1.

I want more goals.

Sack Rafa

Where those everton ****ers at this week?

[bigfooty]

Our distribution from defence is really poor.

[Gazmo1]

If it was us who scored it, it would have been the shoulder no doubt

What has that got to do with the price of fish?

If it was handball and we scored and it stood, great yeah. But I wouldn't deny the laws of vision either way.

[Leyton388]

I'D BRING ON Skrtel at half time to sure up the back

[bigfooty]

Aurelio good ball into Torres, almost brings it down, comes to Kuyt but he slips over

Aurelio again on left, to Babel, his cross over everyone for a goal-kick.

[Nic83]

How many corners we @? 2? goody goody

[bigfooty]

Seeing Kuyt labouring on the right-wing is a bit frustrating.

Torres gets a break, wins a corner.

[Joe King]

I'd take Aurelio off, bring on Skrtel and play Arbeloa at left back

[bigfooty]

corner taken short, Finnan cross cleared, Gerrard cross comes in, bodies falling in the box, nothing given, eventually goes for a goal-kick.

[bigfooty]

Half-Time whistle comes. 2-1 to us. Two moments of magic from Owen, err I mean Torres, in an otherwise poor half. Boro have looked dangerous even after going behind.

Boro nearly score just before the whistle, Tuncay skins Sami for pace, cuts it back and O'Neil with time drags it horribly wide.

[Leyton388]

In the lead and the atmosphere is still ****

[Red_Polo]

Cuntery.

Great word.

That it is

Scoreline looks good thanks to Nando but Rafa's sure to have words about our defending at HT.

[Gazmo1]

Defensive me look awful. I wouldn't be surprised if there are more goals for Boro in this game. The only option is to kill it off upfront. It seems a big waste to me to play our other attacker as a winger. I'd be very tempted to play crouch as a target man. At least the big man can also score given the chance.

[Joe King]

Arbeloa looks lost at centre back. Aurelio is always lost. I suggest Rafa do something about those two.
