Liverpool vs Stoke Post match thread

[el matador]

Did the commentator not say Stoke have only scored 1 goal away from home in last 11? So clean sheet against them ain't that impressive

yes but you're talking about our defending.

we leak goals so for me its a bonus. Look im disappointed with the result but what can we do.

[Shaggy]

Cunts are revelling in it

Much hilarity in #nufc press-box at half-time as footage shown on a colleague's laptop of Suarez's dive. Embarrassing.

I think the club should come out and say they won't stand for **** like that from suarez. lets not worry about other clubs but get our own house in order.

We have to. It's appalling and he will (rightly) be lambasted for it. Just makes a **** situation worse and makes the club look like chumps. We at least need to show that we aren't condoning or encouraging him.

[Robbie-9-Fowler]

Gerrard gave the ball away 36 times today.

I was gonna post on here I'd be surprised if Gerrard kept the ball half the time he touched it. Thought some smart arse would post showing how wrong I was, but it appears I wasn't far off

If his name was Charlie Adam we'd all be moaning about his continued inclusion in the side.

If the team was picked on form he'd be nowhere near it. How long will he continue to be played because of who he is? I love him and he's carried us for such a long time. But he's a player, we shouldn't carry him.

[Fredo]

Think it's down to frustration. First half he was being consistently kicked by that **** Huth and we didn't get protection from the referee until late into the first half.

[Maxiedge]

I can't believe he dived like that, now, of all times. IAFN

[lfcJT07]

Steven Gerrard lost possession 36 times today. Why does he think those early crosses into the box are going to pay off? Sterling, Suarez and Suso are all well under 6ft and have no chance against the likes of Huth and Shawcross.

Shelvey is back from his ban, surely after todays performance Gerrard deserves to be dropped?

[Leyton388]

Club should fine him after that. He's made Rodgers look like a right prick now after what he said last week.

[JohnDoe]

unlucky then.

If Rodgers thinks his attitude is worthy of game time that should be good enough for us. Are we that high & mighty we can deem who deserves to play? HELLO, we're ****ing **** right now.

He's earning £90k a week and he's the worst player in our squad. He's completely worthless. You can make a case for anyone to be put in the team but him.

Anyway, I'm going overboard because Joe Cole wasn't the reason we didn't win today, but I was just so content and happy with the thought he was nowhere near the team and when he came on for Suso.... Argghhhhh

[RichC]

unbelievable, the Suarez dive was daft but the number made by other teams and players over a season which are as bad if not worse that don't get the coverage is amazing; basically Suarez is an easy sell as the papers have made him the panto villan so they'll wring it out for every penny they can make off it.

It's just more of the same in their eyes though. People believe he does this every game so I don't think that much changes.

But I agree we need to sort his attitude out, this is not acceptable.

[Gibbo]

**** Suarez the cheating little **** cunt.

Should have loaned him out an kept Carroll, play like Stoke.

This could be controversial but I'm going to put it out there:

I think the crowd at Anfield are actually too nice with our players sometimes. They need to voice their frustration with certain players to stop them taking liberties. I'm thinking Steven Gerrard here. I know he's idolised but he's over-stepping the mark, imo, as far as trying to dictate a game at his own pace/style.

Torres was a diver when we had him

Never hear it mentioned now he's at Chelsea funnily enough.
