What has Kuyt done in this game?

[dom9]

Long! He got a little tap on the back of his ankle. I'd say fair enough if he had his ankle clipped.

Some of dowd's decisions have been shocking. He's quite obviously set his stall out not to be biased towards the big premiership team.

It was a foul. Gerrard has been guilty of worse many times.

[Lee]

lack of match fitness I'd take it...

That's what I thought too.

Shame. We need our forward players to do something creative now then... big ask at the moment.

just won a free kick

[tommyg]

Our transition from midfield to attack is just so poor

[greenbloodred]

Degen off and Carragher at RB

Why is Degen off? Been one of our better players tonight

[ronanm]

Reading are a good little team. They seem to play as a team, not individuals.

I'd disagree - football is a contact sport

[Leyton388]

I'd give my right ****ing nut to have crouch or Bellamy here right now.

We don't play as a team though that's part of the problem, a number of times this season the players look like they haven't played together before.

[Norbs]

Why do we always pass it out wide and then back inside infront of the oppos defence where it's snuffed out. The ball needs to be played behind the ****ing defence!

[Qantaga]

Nothing seems to be going for us. What's Cavalieri experience with pens like? because if we don't see Alonso coming on that's what's gunna happen.babel you donkey

Babel shoots straight at the keeper

[Lee]

On a positive note, Babel & Ngog are looking lively... trying to make something happen.

Rest of the team are static - Kuyt awful, Aquilani getting tired, Benayoun has gone missing.

I think we will have to agree to disagree there. Like I said if he had bees clipped fair enough I could live with that but a llittle tap on the back of the leg going away from goal and going by the Degen incident then I cannot agree that that was a penalty.
