Bolton match thread

[McDermotX]

****ing brilliant energy and workrate there from Kuyt, wins the ball back and then gets a throw for us.

[Norbs]

I wonder if Hodgson promised in the dressing room to walk, if we proved we could turn it round, thus showing to him that the players are playing badly on purpose

[SimonNo7]

Maxi goes close, then Gerrard with the follow up, but saved. Looked a handball to me, should've had a peno.



You're right. I think 2nd half, we've had a lot of the ball, so our defensive line and pressing levels havent been too evident.

Which has meant Johnson has been getting forward more which is good to see.

Torres been better this 2nd half, but still annoyingly insists on doing everything by himself. Very immature play.

I would love that.

"Please lads, PLEASE! I will go if you win - i promise!"

SG: "You heard the man lads - lets get to work"

Gerrard's desire to win this game has been almost tangible. Absolute legend

Please let this be true

Good idea from Lucas, Ngog should have kept going there.

[McDermotX]

Half chance for Nando....wide

[Craig_H]

Lovely decisive ball from Stevie - keeper comes out to prevent johnson being through on goal.

Another delightful cross from Stevie to Nando near post, fires wide.

bitters 2-0 down

[Tatterdemalion]

Kyrgiakos coming on?

Looks like somebody got a dictionary for xmas

[McDermotX]

Just noticed 2-0 for Stoke there....nice!

Another day where i'm reminded how much i love Steven Gerrard. Just sublime, his passion and desire, the ease with which he plays incisive passes, the purpose to his play - just wonderful to watch. Talk of selling/dropping him is utterly loopy. ****ing absurd nonsense.
