Liverpool v Everton. 28th Jan at 20.00.

[Jxg]

We've been actually "bad" since mid-December, but we've managed to utilise the tailend of our early momentum and grind out results.

Lukaku has been non-existent since November and we haven't had the link-up play or ability to attack consistently. All tonight is is the first time a coherent side has put us on the back foot and exposed us.

Exposed is the key word. We've simply been exposed. We need two, three players - a competent striker, a creative central midfielder and a centre-half/left-back cover for Baines. And we need them now; not in the summer, and on permanent deals. None of this "January isn't ideal" crap; it's a transfer window, spend money now.

But we don't spend money! We have Kenwright as a chairman. We have Robert Earl on the board. Martinez was employed on the condition that he imitates Moyes. He did it at Wigan: Moses, Valencia, McCarthy. Buy cheap, sell expensive and give all the money back to Bill's bank.

 

[Huyton Layne]

You know they were taking the piss when they brought Moses on. Salt in the wound much.

Quick question: which tastes best, domestos multi-action or cillit bang?

 

[Norwegian Cow]

She was fit

I would comfort her tonight

 

[Del]

They score goals. We struggle.

2 hoofs. Terrible defending from a corner. And a mistake from the captain.

They still would've scored from open play though.

9 shots 4 goals is ruthless

But he that's what 50m gets you

 

[wellillwill]

Look at the stats on here ffs

If you had not seen the game you would wonder how we are down 4-0

Those can't be right

 

[Big Doug]

Martinez needed to strengthen, should have had Martins Indi in as soon as Oviedo was injured, strong LB who can play CB and could of played alongside Jags, Hibbo should of been ahead of stones simply for being a more experienced defender and we should have played a tighter game with them scoring for fun at home.

Disgraceful performance by everyone bar mirallas Pienaar being the worst

 

[wiggum23]

We have to spend.

No ifs or buts or waiting 'til summer.

If there's money there. Of course. If.

If one thing this result has done, it surely makes this happen.

 

[Ihaters]

Going to be honest I can see us having a bad run of form

We've been in one for a little while now, its not starting its in progress.... Stoke, Sunderland, WBA, This lot.
Not been the same since Chrimbo.

 

[riddick]

She was fit

Saw that too

 

[MikeH72]

Just finish. Now. Please

 

[Smodger]

Abosolute shocking

 

[Seamus Colemole]

The villa game is huge.

If martinez wants to get anything out of this season we need a reaction then.

One thing that was almost as certain as crapping it at analfield was that after a crappy performance we'd always bounce back with a good performance.

Its the lack of quality in the final third

Lukakau has been awful for all that period and we have struggled because of it

Top quality creative players cost money though
