Everton play like 'Stoke'

[Royal Blue Jersey]

"Subtle" comment from a Liverpool fan on the BBC article... don't ask how i guessed.

'as a mutd fan i could not agree with gerrard more, i watched the game and neverton just wanted to hit fellani every single time. liverpool played some great football and i can see them getting top4 on that evidence. + i dont know how we beat chelsea lucky we always have the refs on our side i guess'

HAHAHA love it. love it, love it, love it. So hilariously bad, and so obviously the work of the cult.

Not seen much of them this season but Stoke play to their strengths good on em at least they don't roll about like a bunch of fannies whenever another player goes near them !

we are a hard working club from top to bottom with now enough class in attack to maintain a strong top four challenge this season !

Liverpool are a laughing stock! Gerrard has been diving and making snide tackles for years and now he has suarez to take over his role as he is obviously past it!

Never mind stevie More time to spark dj's you classless ******

I don't want to sound like I'm having a go here, mate, but have you even read the papers? They're not dictating jack sh*t bar their own continued fall from "grace" in the public's eye. The papers are openly discrediting everything they've come out with. Steven Gerrard comes over, to the rest of the world, like a complete no-mark in every paper thanks to the Stoke comments. The fact that the stats suggest the absolute opposite of what he claimed suggests firstly, that not we, but THEY are the dirty hoofball side on merseyside, secondly that Gerrard is a bitter, angry gobsh*te with no class and thirdly, that Rodgers' whole philosophy that he has been championing since day one is the utter bullshine we all knew it to be. The world is seeing the light, Dave.

Now look at the other side of the coin at us and the fact that Gerrard's comments have the opposite desired effect and full on emphasise the fact that we are NOT like Stoke, we were the better side and we do NOT run our mouths like angry children in the press when we get a bad decision against us. We come out of this with at worst our rep intact, whereas they have shattered the illusion that they are a good passing side by chatting complete sh*t in the media. The attention today is on how bitter and twisted they are and most importantly, how they were outplayed on Sunday. Thanks Steven. Why would we waste our time talking about how much of a gobsh*te Stevie is when the media are doing it for us. You've seen the comments under the articles, no one's fallen for it. Why would we distract everyone from their self-inflicted embarrassment by sinking to their level in childish slanging matches. Just keep schtum and watch them FROTH.

I know you want them humiliated and so do I mate, so do I, but honestly, leave them to it, they do it beautifully by themselves. The racism saga should have taught everyone that. David Moyes has played a blinder, imo: "It was a goal", beautifully popcorned them there. "I would have done it" (on Suarez' celebration) is NOT what they wanted to hear at all and finally, he sits back with a family size packet of butterkist and watches them talk up our side for us, emphasise the fact that we are the more mature club and also write our team talks for Saturday and the derby thrown in for the bargain.

As I said earlier, I appreciate that Gerrard's comments have been challenged. There's no question about that. However, it amounts to precisely sweet FA. Gerrard and the rest of that club KNEW that theory wouldn't be accepted but they also appreciate that if the viewpoint is made it's hard to counter. It's like that old trick of telling someone not to think about a small black box in an empty room...you cant get away from thinking about it. The very suggestion is enough. And that's the victory they'd have been looking for here with this long ball stuff. Dont believe me? Look at us all here talking about it as the hot topic of the day!

It's not exactly CIA psy-ops stuff to expect your club to counter bluster from the opposition like that or, indeed, to get out in front of it and call them out first (as we had a perfect right to over their strongarm anti-football tactics).

You're giving him & them more credit than they deserve here, you're speaking as if they'd actually considered the way the story would be digested. Sorry but you're way of beam here, it was just the bitter rant of a washed up red shiite, who's badly stinging after Sunday, nothing more, nothing less.

There's be no gain for the shiite in bad mouthing us anyway, it's merely a deflection away from their own inadequacies, which has no long term implications for us or for them, it just stops their fanbase reflecting on them pissing away a 2 goal lead & being owned in midfield by Phill fooking Neville

That pretty much sums it up.

I'd agree with you if the facts were buried in the article but I've got to disagree with you here Dave - the sub-headlines scream it and the news outlets are pretty much laughing at Liverpool. Some of them I couldn't have wrote in a more obvious way.

Gerrard has been slaughtered in the press for those comments. It's done them far more harm than we ever could.

Looking back, the instant apology from Neville for a dive is a sharp, very obvious contrast to the Suarez debacle too. Neutral football fans generally have a brain - it's only in regards to their own club that they become by and large incredibly stupid.

No mate, you're wrong...you're very wrong. Rodgers said it on the final whistle; Gerrard has brought it back to the fore yesterday; today they have local and national media debating the subject.

It was co-ordinated as a wind up and as a way of deflecting attention from just how utterly clueless and wreckless they are. As far as I can make out we've just sat back and let it wash over us. Only Snodin in the Echo has come back with something and he isn't employed by the club and what he said was just to refute the allegation of a long ball game.

Call it tit-for-tat that we shouldn't get into if you like, but our response should have been swift on Sunday night: brief the media that we'd been kicked off the park by the opposition, some of who's members were clearly out of control and wound up. That'd have buried this long ball stuff.

Exactly! :hay:

Well, whoever's right on this let's hope it continues to keeps Moyes honest this season by going all out for the three points every game and attacking down both flanks.

You make more money depending on the supposed 'Glamour' of your club as sponsors and the like are more likely to want to be associated to your 'brand'.

Thats how it's meant to work anyway.
