[CJ]

spot on with the its like going back to the houillier games

even at his worst Rafas play got better results than this seems to.

but its still early days for roy so lets hope he is working on this.

Did anyone else Feel that goal coming in the first half?When they got the corner i knew it was going to happen. (no,i don't think im psychic)
We are getting nothing from this game unless he changes a few things.

****in hell Cole

I think we've contained Man Utd and they didn't really look like scoring. Despite all the slating Johnson has had of late, and despite all the criticism Konchesky is getting today, both have done brillinatly to keep Nani and Giggs quiet.

United can't find a way through the middle so they're going down the flanks, but I can't remember them once skinning the full back and getting a decent ball in.

Our problems have come from being in possession. Skrtel in particular aint comfortable in possession. Konchesky was poor for the attempted cross, but other times he gets it everyone is marked, and he is rightly not being silly enough to try and dribble round Nani whilst deep in his own half.

I think second half we'll strt to press a little more as the game goes on and we'll see how we ciope with United counters then.

It's too late now. I can't see us clawing our way back now, we'll get hit by one or two sucker punches.

This season has been a real throwback to the Houllier glorydays. We cannot pass and move and our football has died. We are once again the best sideways and backwards passing team in the world though.

We play defensive minded style of football that is so negative and awful to watch and absolutely kills this beautiful game. It's pathetic that we don't have anybody who thinks forward pass first safe backwards pass second.

What are you watching?! Nani missed a sitter for a start.

I dont remember us ever going out and so plainly expecting to get beaten. Sure we had games where we would have liked a more gung-ho approach but we always looked like we had a plan. We're set up here like a mid-table team (which we're turning into very fast) hoping to nick a point from our betters without any idea of where a goal might come from.

Its early days but Im worried about Roy.

That's right on the money. I started watching this game fully expecting us to lose and everything points towards this inevitable result. We're a mid table side coming to OT hoping not to get battered.

[CJ]

so when will Roy make changes?

89?

[Galb]

Nothing to worry about for #LFC fans. The team may be second best but at least the players are happy and the club have a boss the media like

Which is how Purslow makes his decisions to be fair.

He must be delighted now the media and Ferguson are ruffling our hair like good little boys.

[SimonNo7]

thats over the top, he is a better defender that anyone we have had there for a few years.

No it's not, we should never have bought him, we should of bought the best left back in football...

[danperkins]

Comon lads FFS, an Roy if we are still struggling better show some urgency in changing things.

[ronniedrew]

Haha asif! Aurelio is lightyears ahead of him, defensively and going forward.

if you like a defender who has no pace

nani would rape aurelio for pace

Poulsen is not better than Lucas.

Konchesky is ****.

Maxi Rodriguez is hopeless and being found out.

Joe Cole is not used correctly.

Poulsen is definitely better than Lucas, Konch is average, the rest i agree with.

[Galb]

and the majority of the 90mins under Rafa last season to be fair.
