    So where did it go all totally wrong?

    Raf-rant?

    Selling Robbie Keane?

    Persistence with Dirk Kuyt?

    Steven Gerrard's court case?

    a bit of all of the above
    #1 pickup line of all time: "Hey, does this rag smell like chloroform to you?

      Don't think the 'Raf-Rant' had anything to do with it.

      Gerrard court case -> quite possibly.

      Keane was **** for us, but he would surely have scored one today?

      **** it I've been quite positive until today.

      This is just awful.

        Resting key players in the league games when our squad clearly is not good enough

          None of the above.

          We don't have the players and we don't play as a cohesive unit in attack - simple as that.

            El Zhar playing today with Benayoun on the bench typifies Rafa's inability to keep the momentum going after a decent win

                  Rafa is the problem. Sorry, he hasn't got what it takes. Too smart for his own good.

                    C`mon man you should know by now, if you score goals you get dropped.

                      we simply aren't good enough, thats all there is too it. we don't have strength in depth, we don't have real creative quality or attacking flair, our defence is weaker than it has been since Rafa arrived (Skyrtel is average, Hyppia is too old). We are fundamentally a 2 man team (we need to be a 4 or 5 man team to win the title, as in 5 world class players in the starting line up), rafa IS too defensive for the premiership playing the most unprolific striker in the premiership upfront on his own.

                      "If Gerrard continues to play up front, leaving this lack of creativity and intelligence in Midfield, the season WILL be over by Xmas."

                      I still don't think we'll finish in the top 4 this season."

                        Ironically, that is true.

                        Underestimates the likes of Boro week in and week out. He should realise by now that they will try and stifle our game for 90 mins. Need to go for the jugular in these games and not flounce around with fringe players and weird team selections.

                          Too many poor players who are just not good enough.

                          Nothing personal against the likes of El Zhar and Ngog - but they are not adequate replacements for Torres. Babel is a major disappointment.

                          Without Torres, we have nothing upfront.

                            Not enough good attacking players No creativity, some negative tactics and some players who haven't reproduced the form they are capable of.
                            The only gracious way to accept an insult is to ignore it; if you can't ignore it, top it; if you can't top it, laugh at it; if you can't laugh at it, it's probably deserved.
