We seriously need some luck to go for, it went completely against us with their 2 goals

You make your own luck in football mate and the way we are playing we will get what we deserve every time.

This is the table tonight, does not read good at all (well it's embarrassing really isn't it?), as close to bottom as top!

7 Liverpool 16 10 24
8 Birmingham 16 0 24
9 Fulham 16 3 23
10 Sunderland 16 0 21
11 Stoke 16 -4 21

Stoke
Bolton
Burnley
Debrecen
West Ham
Leeds
Hull
Man United
Everton

These are the teams we have beaten this season.

Played well in the first half.

We were a bit unlucky with their goals but fell apart after the Arshavin goal. No excuses for that.

We spent the last twenty minutes hoofing the ball aimlessly upfield.

No cohesion. No confidence. No ****ing clue.

I really don't know where we go from here

And we can't point the finger at injuries.

We're soft, and pretty much clueless when things go against us.

You're putting the defeat down to "luck"?

So many turncoat fans. Sickening, no better than geordies. Yes this season is ****, but it goes against what the club is about to give up because we have had a **** first half to the season.

[Leyton388]

Even the most hardcore rafa supporter must see he is finished here? Time after time people say our inability to sack managers at the right time has cost us so why is now any different?

[Joe King]

In Rafa, we of course, trust.

The first one was bad luck. The second one was great play from Arshavin.

We had half an hour to get back in the match after that yet barely mustered a coherent attack in that time. That's nothing to do with luck.

No I'm putting their goals down to luck. Reading helps.

It didn't really did it?

They came out and harassed us, we went 'ooh mummy they're bullying us, we don't like that', they got a lucky goal (yes lucky) but then went on and beat us fair and square. We are not a team, simple as that!!!

[Nicey]

That was shameful Gerrard and Co, Shameful, never looked like scoring. Thats it then. I can't be ****ed with this season now, beach balls, wonder goals from **** players and own goals .. really cannot be ****ed

Terrible performance terrible

Not a knee jerk, but I think we have to ask ourselves how much longer can we go on as we are. I'm not sure how true the fact is but to have lost more games than Stoke is unacceptable. It looks increasingly unlikely that we'll break the top four and if we do it will be a struggle.

I'm not daft enough to suggest that we should be challenging for the league each year but for a team like Liverpool with players of the calibre of Gerrard and Torres it should be fairly confortable, even with City spending millions.

Even our second string should be capable of beating teams out of the top six. It isn't like we have premiership journey men, we have full on internationals.

Not a rant, just dawning realisation.

We are bad, really bad. Things need to change, if that means no more Rafa, then.....................

Yeah but how many times will you hit a shot like that and it'll fly over or wide? 9/10 probably.
