Bolton Wanderers vs Liverpool: Match Thread

[Rudo]

Opening 10 minutes were good, after that we just returned to our dire, depressing ways.

Too many players below par, in particular our two best players Torres and Gerrard...both having a nightmare so far, Cole and Maxi are annoymous and i'm starting to become less and less convinced by Meireles tbh. Im really not sure about him.

Pepe and the defence haven't done alot wrong in fairness and Lucas has been the pick of the bunch.

[Buzzo]

Lucas bad? He has played very well. Don't take up scouting, your letting your prejudice get in the way.

Lucas has played well. Nando should have played him in for a tap in.

[JohnDoe]

Lucas is one of our better players today.

[Mattshark]

Yeah you are overreacting

Decent manager, decent tactics & decent service you'd see a massive improvement in Torres

[Exiled_red]

If Nando & SG had their shooting boots on today, we'd be winning this one. It's there for the taking.

The game and our performance has still been poor though...

[BigChief]

Lucas was our best player in that half. Well him or Soto.

And apart from the yellow card, Konchesky put in a beaut of a cross for Torres (missing) to bury. Plus a world class timed chip for Cole to make more of. Doesn't stop people calling him 'sh*t' anyway does it?

MOM so far.

Yeah agree that Torres is looking poor due to the lack of service. We could have Torres, Villa, Messi, Ronaldo and Alonso in our squad and we would still be poor due to Roys god awful tactics. Roy just loves to play 10-0-0

So are we sadly. If Bolton score first it's game over given our stellar away form.

[Rudo]

It's made even more infuriating by the fact that Bolton are ****.

Launching long balls at the first opportunity towards two tall strikers, who's touches are too heavy or are to busy falling over, is only matched by having two tall defenders mopping up our long balls to our solitary striker who has no motivation or desire.

Wouldn't say they're **** but they're defo there for the taking.

Torres looks like he doesn't give a ****.

He's put in some decent balls true, but he's had some slip ups at the back

It's Koncheskys positioning and tackling that worry me the most. Haven't seen him tackle and win the ball or block a cross yet.

[Leyton388]

If i was working under Hodgson i wouldn't give a **** either.

[BigChief]

Decent manager, decent tactics & decent service you'd see a massive improvement in Torres

1. had a world class cross from (**** (tm))Konchesky, he wasn't there
2. Through ball to put away. F*cked up.
3. Ball passed to him in penalty area for him to lay off or turn and shoot. Kicked it out for a throwin
4. Header from corner, a player half his value would have hit the target at least

Harsh, yes. He's world class. Time to show it.
