Blackburn 2-3 Liverpool- FT!!

[Gibbo]

Maxi must get a game in the semi

[johnly]

I'm slapping a public health warning on Saturday's game, its needed for sure! 3 points thats all I care about, but bloody hell we made hard work of it

[ric.williams]

Henderson was excellent, one of our best players. Did really well at right back despite being targeted by their left winger.

and he STILL managed to provide some support up top. he made a right lung buster trying to get up to a bellamy cross

[Muddled]

Bollocks mate, weakened side, players playing out of position, 2 pens against, dodgy keeper, 10 men and an away win against a side fighting for their lives.

Dont give me that 'not a good win' rubbish.

WTF would you have been expecting?

+1.

We needed three points, we got them.

[Fredo]

Sorry, I didn't see it that way. We are diabolical. Maxi's prowess made it 2-0. If he weren't such a skilful finisher, it might never have gone to 2-0. I can't think of a player who would have buried those chances, not going by recent performances (ie. the last 10 games).

And in the 2nd half, we didn't try to win the game, it was shocking football we produced. And being down to 10 men doesn't really cut it for me, had Coates not lumped it upfront and that daft Blackburn player stayed around the goal post, offside, nada. It was a lucky goal, well executed but lucky.

In the grand scheme of things, we have been the ****test I've ever seen us play in a long time, and not just today. It's depressing and I'm glad once this season is over. Although I've taken it all jokingly, as others have had to, especially today, deep down, it's been shocking and not of Liverpool standard. All season hasn't.

My 2 cents.

Well we aren't a side high on confidence but I'd take scrapping wins like that 9 times out of 10, and we played with 10 men.

We showed tremendous character and unity. That's good innit?

[Zapater]

Let's not think of it that way, because that's just speculative bollocks.

We won 3-2. We moan when we lose, let's just enjoy the three points.

Firstly speculative or not, it doesn't change the fact that Downing has no league goals or assists this season. He's ****ing shocking and it's a large contribution to the reason we can't score goals. If one of your main attackers can't provide or score it's a huge ****ing problem. In the team week in week out, it's a disgrace.

Just because we managed to snatch a late winner can't make me happy about the events that transpired today and the last few months. I'm happy we won, but a lot of that was dire.

He tried to clear the ball, dallied with it and hit it straight at Yakubu, then barged him off the ball. Penalty.

ah right, the bbc update said should have been red, fair?

[Craig_H]

ah right, the bbc update said should have been red, fair?

It's debatable for me. The ball was bouncing about 6 yards away from Yakubu and going away from goal, with Coates coming back. If Jones hadnt touched him, Yakubu wasnt even going to GET the loose ball, let alone score.

[Fredo]

ah right, the bbc update said should have been red, fair?

Not a red, don't think so. Would have been harsh.

[vonk]

Fact of the matter is though, the win is still just papering over the cracks. That's the same I felt under Hodgson when we did win. I'm not comparing Bodge and Kenny, I'm just highlighting my own feelings. Ah well, 3 points, hurray. Still 8th.

We won away with 10 men. Try to celebrate.

Seriously, I don't know why some of you lot follow Liverpool if you can't celebrate a win. Live for the moment, even if it doesn't follow your agenda of getting Kenny out.

tactically though, we were dodgy once again. but anyway, it's a win at last and that effing great!

aren't even worth that

[yamiedo]

Personally one of my favourite wins this season. The main reason I think is because of the spirit we showed and determination in abundance. That is what LFC is about and I think we have signed the type of players who usually drop their heads in this situation but hopefully more performances like this will let them know what it means to play for LFC.

Pointless supporting a team if you cant enjoy a stoppage time winner.
