I'm going to say it...

Injuries. What with all these possibilities. Ask Harry Redknapp about injuries.

It's utterly shameful to use that excuse. And frankly that's what it is. An EXCUSE.

Is it bollocks we had one recognized center mid out there, for all intents and purposes we were playing 5-3-2, and if you have to do that at home you aren't going to get the break through that we needed

[Bob]

Obviously not. That's why I said it's not "that" bad. It's bad, but not that ****ing bad. We haven't just seen a full strength side beaten at home by some ****. We've seen an injury ravaged side held by a decent-ish and well organised side.

Some realism, surely?

LFC should have beaten Portsmouth tonight. End of. 'Injury ravaged side' or not. LFC never do mid-season managerial outings, at least we should never do that. However, i'm more depressed with the performance(s), than the result(s).

Opens seventh beer of the night.

They've lost there last ****ing 5 away. They had a terrific start for the season (for them) and since then there form has been that of relegation fodder. Newcastle, FFS!

Do you expect us to win every single home game against weaker opposition? Every team has results like these. We have one or two nil-nils against **** teams at home EVERY SEASON.

Look we lacked the creativity tonight and we didn't have the players on the pitch with the ability to provide it, thats got nothing to do with their last 5 games or anything like that, I mean it's not as if we lost ffs.

We'll never win the league under Rafa.

But he shouldn't go, he has to be given next season, regardless of what happens this season.

He got us into this mess, he can ****ing well get us out of it.

You're right.

The man's a genius. I think he'll take as forward. After all he's demonstrating he can do just that.

That's a very defeatist attitude

[anfieldanfield]

That's a very defeatist attitude

Unfortunately, it's true.

OR...

He got us into this mess, ship him out before he maks it worse

Actually agree with this 100%.

[Morph]

why ship him out, there's absolutely no point, I still haven't heard one good reason to get rid of him yet.

[Red Chilli]

because AA doesn't like him

[Speedy]

He's taken us backwards.

[Shaggy]

He's taken us backwards.

No he hasn't.

And on that bombshell, I'm going to bed. Depressed. Again.

[Morph]

AA want's to give him another season tho, which is exactly what I think. If he hasn't turned us around by then, then it might be time for him to exit stage left, but not on the basis of 3 dodgy months of a season.

We still might go third on Saturday.
