Bolton post match big style celebration

[Craig_H]

Johnson was poor Rudo, but 'atrocious' isnt a word i'd use.

[TheElephantMan]

Johnson was mostly terrible and occasionally brilliant. What a frustrating player he is.

Other than that misplaced towards the end of the game, what else did he do wrong?

From what I remember, Aurelio had a far worse game than him but I don't recall much of a threat on the left hand side (our right side) from Bolton. I thought he held his position well and did OK given the conditions.

Hodgson: "Had we won on Wednesday night you would now be asking me about the Champions League."

[wavydavy]

It's been said already but........35,000 fans If the Yanks aren't worried about that then they should be. For a normal league game with no bad weather, not midweek etc that's abysmal.

I watched the whole match in a bar in Belfast, my thoughts:

First half - pretty ****, Bolton looked the more dangerous, we looked slow and nervous.(to be expected i suppose but it was still hard to watch)

Second half - overall i was impressed with the fight and spirit of the team, we deservedly got back into the game with a wonderfully crafted goal. Then we pushed them hard after that, weren't throwing the kitchen sink at them but we deserved the win. Hopefully scoring the winning goal will give Joe Cole a bit of a boost. Oh and Torres looked a different player 2nd half. Fought for everything.

As for Glen Johnson - the brainless sod needs taking out of our side asap. Another atrocious and i mean atrocious display. Total car crash of a footballer that fella.

I was gonna post the same, but about your avatar (Skrtel for those who couldn't be bothered checking). He's been a complete liability of late and has had a hand in almost every goal we've recently. We need Soto and Agger at centre half.

One misplaced pass? He gave it away loads of times, and also let Matt ****ing Taylor run rings around him on occasions. Generally he was slow, indecisive, sloppy and wayward.

Just another typical Glen Johnson performance i guess

BrianDurand56 Cole's winner was #LFC's first lge goal from a sub since Fernando Torres scored after coming on v Wigan in December 2009. #LFC

Lost his man for the goal for a start.

[danperkins]

Johnson is a complete and utter defensive liability in an already ropey defense.

[Rudo]

Lost his man for the goal for a start.

Oh and there was that as well

I don't like hammering any Liverpool player but i'm just pissed off that we see Johnson turn out **** performances week in,
week out when we could have Kelly in the side instead.

What does he have to do to be benched?

[Rudo]

On a brighter note i thought Gerrard was brilliant at times today, really drove the team on in the second half.
It was like the Gerrard of a few years ago. Great to see.

Also good to see Agger back, he even won a few headers

[Vermilion]

Bodger will be telling us tomorrow how glad he is he gave Joe Coles signing the final seal of approval when told about it.

[alunevans]

Would have been interesting if Raul hadn't got injured

I agree. When it was clear he was coming off I said I don't want him hurt obviously, but this is going to do us a favour today.

[alunevans]

Let's be fair to Hodgson today, he's done my head in hugely this season and I'm convinced he should have been sacked by now, but there's not much to criticise today so let's not. Let's just give credit where it's due and move on.

We were average in the first half but still better than them. We were pretty good second half.

We had a go too, which we've not done in almost all of the games this season. I left satisfied with what I'd seen.

He was pasted after Wolves and deserved it. Let's not lay into him today when we actually performed well and got the win too.

Yes I know he was helped by injuries eg Aurelio and Gerrard coming into the side, but still, let's play fair. We did fine today.
