Liverpool vs Newcastle Match Thread

[bigfooty]

We keep giving it away and some flying tackles going in to get it back.

Yoss in space on the left, feeds it to Lucas, he wins a corner though we had very few people getting forward there.

[Parm]

I'll feel a bit cheated if we dont get at least another one to be honest

same here, be good to see Kuyt or Crouch (or both) scroe

[Red_hot]

Want Dirky to get one!

[Parm]

bit of poor crossing by Xabi

[bigfooty]

Xabi corner, poor, cleared at near post.

Xabi gets it back and his cross is blocked by Enrique.

good saves from Harper from riise and Kuyt, we should have scored

[bigfooty]

Couple of chances for us, Kuyt is in but his chip is blocked by Harper, then Riise fires a shot at Taylor, Riise's second palmed wide. Kuyt's lack of a left foot cost him a goal there.

Corner is cleared back to Pepe.

Riise nearly scored with his right there never knew he had one!

[bigfooty]

Blatant hand-ball not given by the ref as we looked to break. Players stopped in disbelief.

Newcastle come forward, eventually goes for a goal-kick.

Heard USA chants from Newcastle fans earlier - can't wait till we see the end of that nonsense!

[bigfooty]

Fairclough gives Gerrard MoM.

Xabi strokes it wide to Riise, he runs it out for a goal-kick.

Our lack of a quality presence down the left today has been one of the disappointing things.

[Liverpel]

Gerrard is David Fairclough's man of the match. Can't argue with that.

Should have replied with chants of "Northern Rock"

[bigfooty]

Through the middle we've looked very decent today but down the sides it's been poor.

Here is Kuyt breaking forward on a Crouch pass, decent cross, Yossi dives for the header but Taylor hits it out for a corner.

[Liverpel]

Couple of chances for us, Kuyt is in but his chip is blocked by Harper, then Riise fires a shot at Taylor, Riise's second palmed wide. Kuyt's lack of a left foot cost him a goal there.

Corner is cleared back to Pepe.

I was impressed with the way Riise hit the first shot with his left, and the follow up with his right with as much power.
