[tHuG $TyLe]

Ever since Rafa's rant Liverpool have lost form.

Stoke 0-0 Liverpool
Liverpool 1-1 Everton
Liverpool 1-1 Everton
Wigan 1-1 Liverpool
Liverpool 2-0 Chelsea
Everton 1-0 Liverpool
Portsmouth 2-3 Liverpool
Liverpool 1-1 Man City
Real Madrid 0-1 Liverpool
Middlesbrough 2-0 Liverpool

Those have been the results after the rant.

The 10 games prior they were unbeaten.

^^yea. he is always talking shit about his contract before every match as well. Apparently he has rejected 4 contract offers.

Benitez is a cowardly coach anyway. The way he plays his squad, it's just bitchy. Cowardly.

 

[hizzle?]

^^wtf. you want Everton to finish above Liverpool? and you do realise that if Liverpool failed to qualify for the champions league it would be a disaster financially for the club?Thats about 30 or 40 million gone. Players like Torres and Alonso would probably move away, therefore there would be no chance of Liverpool winning the league next year.

im sorry but no liverpool fan would want Everton to finish ahead of us in the league. thats just nonsense talk. I know you want Benitez to go but if he stayed it would be alot better than what you have said there.

At first, I didn't quite realize that I actually put Everton in there, I just put the #5,6 there... But if that will make Rafa leave, then I want Pool to finish 5th. And the European League offers a lot of money now so...

It was mostly a joke anyways...How many times have I told you bastards not to take me seriously when I say stupid crap like that. tee hee.

 

[Bobby Sands]

^^yea but i agree thats it time for Benitez to move on

Stoke fought back from 2-0 down to draw 2-2 with Villa today.

 

[DPG iz all I C]

Good result for Stoke today.

 

[Bobby Sands]

So let me get this straight, Spurs sent David Bentley up to kick a vital penalty. Why would you do such a thing?

Spurs suck anyway. at least 2 Irishmen were on the winning team.

First trophy down.

Poor match to be fair.

Man Utd shouldve had a Penalty oh and this is why Lennon wouldn't get into my England side, he beat his man about 20 times but couldn't produce ONE good cross.

 

[Bobby Sands]

^^i disagree, i thought Lennon had a good game. He defended well and worked hard. You could argue that his crosses werent good but why aren't the 2 useless strikers making runs to the near post instead of waiting for the ball to arrive at their feet? He did put in some crosses. It not his fault those strikers are so crap. I thought that he was Spurs biggest threat.

 

[Flipmo]

Sad, Corluka can nail a penalty, but Bentley cannot. lol

 

[Duke]

Liverpool should buy Simunic and play him on a 10-position. Watch the trophies accumulate.

Yes he worked hard, but this is about his final product, how many times did he cross front post knowing that it didn't work the first 300 times? there was the time he skinned Evra and passed it to Evans rather than pulling it back for Modric. and most of his crosses were across the floor to the Man Utd defenders.


He looked good coz he was explosive and thats it, he beat players but did fuck all with his delivery, he soon got quiet after the 2nd half and with what one cross which went to Pavlychenko in the whole game even when at times he was open to cross it in? No final product which is his biggest issue.

We could blame the strikers but they need better service then just balls across the floor, look at the height of Pavlychenko, he should use it, cross it back post with with some zip.

It was nausating listening to the positive reviews of him, Modric caused more of a problem with his positioning.

 

[Bobby Sands]

^^you must really hate him lol.

 

[tHuG $TyLe]

lol nah, it frustrates me when players can't cross a ball in when they have a billion chances , its a problem the likes of Walcott and SWP have but they get sold for about £15 million but are so ineffective.

Yeah that was a fould on Ronaldo, should have been a penalty. I thought O Shea was lucky not to be sent off though.

 

[Duke]

I agree with Thuggy. Many of those young English wingers look very nice on the pitch but way too often there's no effectiveness. At all.

 

[Flipmo]

Drogba is a diving ape. Strongest player in the league and he falls over for wussy fouls. Cock sucker.

Edit: Ah fuck off Chelsea, undeserved win.

 

[DPG iz all I C]

Remember this day folks, Nicolas Bender actually managed to score, not once but twice. Praise the lord and hallelujah.

P.S Good win for Chelsea tonight.

 

[tHuG $TyLe]

It's funny, my friend who is an Arsenal fan was talking about choking Bendtner to death earlier in the day

Was I talking to you about Simunic's crazy dribbling skills?
