no one played well last night. Torres had no control on the ball at all and I haven't seen Gerrard play so badly in years yet it's Lucas who's getting canned. OK the lad isn't a Xabi but he never said he was. He's trying hard and doing his best which is more than most of the senior players did last night.
No one was making themselves available last night hence all the square passing. If Xabi was playing last night he'd have made no difference, we'd have lost because the TEAM played [oops]!

Maybe Lucas hasn't got what it takes, let's hope Aquilani can mix things up a bit when he's fit (but don't expect any quick fixes - he'll take time to adapt), so maybe meantime Gerrard needs to drop back with Benni, Babel playing with Torres... and where's Riera?

But sadly with all the funds in the world, if Liverpool play like they did last night they will continue to lose.

... and Emp please get rid of that stupid notion of yours that the Yanks have bags of cash waiting for Zola or Kenny but don't want to give anything to Rafa. This is just another of your pie in the sky day dreams which has absolutely no foundations whatsoever, as usual!!!

The yanks are skint mate and if Rafa thought for 1 second that they were withholding funds in order to force him to leave, he'd have done so by now because he has too much respect for the Club and its fans not to!!!

Emp the team that your beloved manager fielded last night was more than capable of beating Villa FFS! we trounced the mancs without xabi last march, plus with a weakened side overall!

you telling me the likes of Gerrard, Torres, Kuyt played well last night? they didn't even play "ok". If we are lacking in midfield then the team has to work harder for each other - football is a team game and not one of individuals yet no one could be a$red last night. Rafa's fault for not getting them to play? Yes that responsibility lies with him but it also has to work both ways!

how much has benitez spent i bet a lot of it was on youngsters i carnt name 1 that has produced,i dnt mind benitez but latley he is full of excuses,the players that he has bought ie bable wat is the point of playing him on the wing wen he is a striker,nd kuyt why is he on the wing mind you he is no 10 mill striker we got ripped off there in no he works hard but what else does he do

Emp no offence we all realize and know the short comings but the Hatred n negativity u r spreading I believe is only attention seeking measure and nothing else.

if everyone agrees, why arent we singing zolas praises? your a joke of a supporter, i wouldnt even call you a supporter you just get on lucas' back, blame rafa for everything and then come out with ridicoulous ideas like bringing zola back over kenny?? seriously, go and support someone else
