Liverpool vs Man City Match Thread

Nando showed a nice bit of pace down the wing at the end.

I was starting to think we wouldn't ever see that again.

Bring poulsen on and rough the ****ers up a bit

[BobTheCharmer]

Dirk's been poor, TBH.

Its exactly this type of performance from Kuyt that has me pulling my hair out. Its a fairly typical game from him.

[Rich]

Kuyt cannot play on the right of a midfield four. Cannot! Either switch formation or replace him.

Grim viewing, City by far the better team.

[Leyton388]

I'ts the Billionaires against the Bosmans.

Tragic isn't it mate? It should be the other way around though!

[Craig_H]

Stevie not getting close to forwards because afraid to leave Lucas protecting the back 4, get Poulsen on, and get Maxi on right and put Kuyt up top with Torres

Yeah but N'Gog's been alright. If you didnt know who each of our strikers was, and didnt know anything about reputations or past examples of quality, you'd take Torres off and not N'Gog.

[CJ]

couple of moments for us. if we can build on that then its not over.

The most worrying thing is that we have looked gash for 12 months

its not been a few mins here andthere its been nearly constant. I wonder if cole would have made a difference to us i think gerrard needs to be pushed where sky think he cant play you know where he has scored goals and has a great partnership with torres.

Is Torres fit?

we need a left back.

and a bit of width. IS maxi what we need in this game?

[lickedlollipop]

lucas is absolutely most overrated player in lfc history. what an garbage he is. sell him not masch.

[JohnDoe]

Too many players who are not good enough.

Lucas- What does he do?
Kuyt/Jova- As bad a pairing out wide as Lucas/Masch are in the middle. Awful.
No left back
N'Gog- Has a place in the squad but not as a first choice striker.

[Assassin]

Teams that score on 13 minutes and lead 1 - 0 at half time normally go on to lose the game, fact!

[Kenneth]

i thought dirk might struggle in this system where he's being asked to do more going forward and he just doesnt look like a winger or a wide player at all.

first touch has always been questionable and it looks terrible tonight.

I think we need to take ngog off and bring poulsen on and move gerrard in behind torres. If we're still losing after 60 mins bring babel on and take kuyt off.

I'd take Torres off ahead of Ngog. He's clearly not properly fit.

[elrichio86]

They've had two-thirds of the possession. It'd be nice if we could just keep hold of the ball occasionally

I have to say I agree with all you are saying here.

Not necessarily. We dont need to spend bucketloads to show desire. We just havent shown it.
