Liverpool vs Chelsea Match Thread

[Tribute]

Rodgers needs to get another landlord so he can substitute him without losing his house...

[SB]

Impressed with Can.

He is not flashy but he is making sure that he gets in the face of whatever Chelsea midfielder that is trying to look for the ball.

Yeah he started fantastically but faded towards the end of the half. He really is some player though.

I would love to smash Costa in the face with a cricket bat. I don't think I've ever seen a more ugly snidey cunt ever.

This passing at the back is awful.

[Leyton388]

I see Lovren is still ****.

[Kenneth]

This game is completely passing SG by. Because of the selection and the way we're set up, we rarely have a majority of our players involved in attacking - especially Balotelli who is literally the opposite of Suarez - and we are in constant panic at the back. And where did this bull**** of paying it around at the back with Mignolet start? 5 or 6 passes and then we fackin launch it and lose it ffs.

Those are less bothering then when we do that but lose possession before getting the chance to hoof it.

[RichC]

I laughed out loud at that Robert

[CAD]

Get Gerrard forward instead of Henderson then.

I'm really really sorry but this version of Gerrard doesn't warrant a spot on any team playing at this level. He is a disaster. Zero impact player....

[BobTheCharmer]

Markovic in, Gerrard out

he's ****ing useless. You need fighters out there.

[Robbie-9-Fowler]

Can has been good.

Coutinho moments of magic but our attacking players literally have to do it all on their own, there is no link up play! Surely thats management?

Gerrard needs dropping he's atrocious. We were in complete control until he gave the ball away on the edge of our box, if he offers nothing defensively he has to be near perfect in possession and giving the ball away there is a cardinal sin.

[Kenneth]

Rodgers needs to get another landlord so he can substitute him without losing his house...

Wat?

[Redspin]

We got a lucky goal and they have dominated us. As predicted lovren had a mare and balotelli completely isolated up top.

Henderson has been **** this season.

**** me. I hope I never sit next to you at Anfield. You seem to revel in your misery

[badpiggy]

Subway pastrami ad is brilliant.

[SB]

On a positive note, Glen Johnson has played well. Much better than I expected.

[Chazza]

They are ****ing walking past Gerrard with the ball through the center. How anybody can't see this as a major issue is mind boggling...

Pretty sure both Arn and Craig_h got banned for less repetitive tedious ****e.

[tanner]

We're losing the battle now that's for sure. We're a desperate, we're making mistakes under pressure and leaving gaps all over, which is a little surprising seeing as we're being driven back and have plenty of numbers in our own half. Then when we regain possession with Chelsea in numbers around our box we're terrible at bringing it forward, missed passes or slow ball out down the wings. Mignolets distribution has been pretty poor when needed, but to be fair we're not offering many options.

We need some more steel in the centre of midfield.
