ECHO Comment: "Fears of Witch-hunt Against Liverpool FC"

[ianefc]

Does anyone ever think that it will be aknowledged that Gerrard isn't all that in the role he is being asked to play, certainly the defensive aspects of his game, they didn't conceed 50 goals in the league last year because of the bilge back 4 they have and had, Skullitor and Agger kept plent of clean sheets under the waiter so why can't they do it now, because they have gone from Alonso and Mascherano to An eldely Gerrard and Henderson and they have also downgraded their keep for some unknown reason.

He was tripe for the last half season before joining Chelsea, hence the amazement at getting £50m for him.

Is right - I remember Jags had him in his back pocket.

 

[IllinoisBlue]

The cretins are out in force on my Facebook. "The good teams don't surrender 2-0 leads" and "At least we've won a game" being the highlights.

Weren't they 3-0 up against Palace?

I think with Gerrard , its more a case of if he doesn't play in that role, he probably doesnt play at all. Rodgers made great play last year about his new blueprint for Gerrard as his Quarterback. It remains to be seen how Rodgers can accommodate the new players and Gerrard..who, by his own admission last season, needs teammates to do his running for him.

Let's no kid ourselves until city scored against them they were the better team. Lets only hope their defensive frailties are worse than ours and we knick a jammy 1-0 win at Klanfield, Eto'o 90th minute header.

The better team in terms of possession, but they created diddly squat of any real threat and they looked easy to penetrate through the midfield as Me La offered zero cover for the CB's

they had possession and territory, but that spark they had last year has gone, sterling and sturridge are nowhere near suarez's level, they should make a decent fist of top 4 but they will be weaker than last year, the spurs game will tell us more about were they are going to be this season, for last night they looked very similar to rodger's first season in charge, and generally ineffective, lovren should turn out to be decent but skittles next to him appalling as a defender, zero communication or awareness. Their stats showed they conceded significantly less with Agger in the team, a man rodgers seems determined to drive out

They did nothing with all that possesion

 

[Space Cowboy]

Chill out guys. The Suarez factor is gone, they're sh*te again!

(until further notice)

Can't see why they want rid, clearly the best defender they have. Think Rodgers is scared Skrtel will sit on his toilet seat & give him the bad aids.

Glen Johnson getting cheers because he's substituted too. Never walk alone eh?

Good player for me agger, rodgers sticking with johnson and skrtel bodes well for us regards him being clueless

Exactly mate - thing with Liverpool is they're doing a United. Not addressing the problems they have. Papering over cracks buying players they simply dont need.

United should have spent that 60m on a new back line, same goes for Liverpool. Buying an overpriced average centre half from the mighty Southampton to replace an established core member of the 'family'.

 

[zirc]

Glen Johnson at his brilliant best

That's England's Glen Johnson to you mate.

 

[Donald Twain]

Has Stevie Me kicked a ball this season?

yes with his wife's kids

 

[bizzaro]

Even today's Times had him dishing out that 'blame anyone but me' thing he shamelessly does.....

Brendan Rodgers, the Liverpool manager, bemoaned the defending by Alberto Moreno and Dejan Lovren, two of his summer signings, for City’s goals. “The goals we’re disappointed with,” he said. “The first and third we can do better with. You can spend as much money as you want, but it doesn’t guarantee you anything. I’m only confident that they are going to get better.”
