Liverpool vs Sunderland: Match Thread

[JohnDoe]

what happens if we dont improve under roy

how long can he carry on.

you have to give him time but he needs to improve

Get rid before he gets any more money to spend.

[wiw]

This is strange. I don't know how Hodgson can't see how badly this team are set up? Or perhaps more realistically, why he thinks that they will improve? Has to be one of the two, I don't see any other reason for the lack of change

The players we have there are absolutely screaming out for last years formation, I couldn't think of a better way to set up than:

----------- Reina
- GJ -- Carra -- Skyrtl -- Agger
----- Poulsen -- Miereles ------
-- Kuyt -- Gerrard -- Cole
---------- Torres

Couldn't agree more

Mate he has had all pre season and the start of the season. If we had looked like we have half a clue i wouldn't have minded but we are offering nothing on a regular basis.

It's a no-brainer.

Regardless of anything else - and I know the gerrard at CM is a vexed question - what possible reason could Roy have for playing mereiles on the right?

[McDermotX]

No changes at half time
Everything must be fantastic

FFS

[Philosophia]

How long has Roy got?

[Rich]

Too many if not all of our players are appalling decision makers. You have Reina who will give a goal away with his dribbling and general casualness, Johnson is so frustrating at the moment, just go by players and get crosses in. Two centre backs are playing well but give silly free kicks away. Gerrard tries to be too smart, instead of taking time ala Scholes its always off the cuff stuff, Poulsen having his worst game so far, RM again gets rid too soon, Kuyt doing his usual stuff and Cole again is an off the cuffer. Need to start 2nd half like we did first half.

Its obvious our confidence is so low. ****ing frustrating the torres goal was disallowed, could have been two up. As soon as they scored heads have dropped and the players have gone into their shells. We must sign a team leader, someone that will slap his own players and gee the lads up. Rafa had same problems, no natural leaders in the team.

So its the players and not the formation?

[McDermotX]

No pressure on crosser
Glen asleep in the box
Nice
