Stoke are our direct rivals. No I can't believe it either but my friend I am afraid they are.

I dont expect Dalglish to be sacked myself even though I dont think he should ever of been made manager I dont think it serves any purpose to get shut just now. The Brighton game for me is now a season salvage game, if we lose that it's highly likely we will be trophyless for a sixth season as the F.A.Cup is more of a lottery.

Whew! I for one am glad that's not a knee-jerk reaction, cos I'd hate to see one of those from you after this.

What was embarrassing today was how poor EVERY SINGLE Liverpool player was. Seriously. Not one guy put his hand up today and tried to do something, anything. You seem to think that if the manager says "Go win" then it will happen. You seem to think that Kenny Dalglish was the one handing out marginal yellows to us but not to Spurs. You seem to think that Dalglish wanted Adam to get sent off after 20 minutes. You seem to think that KD had a lot of options for marking Bale, given that Johnson, Kelly, and Flanagan are all either injured or just coming back from injury. I don't think anyone would pick Skrtel for that job were there anyone else, but there isn't, and he was ruthlessly exposed for being rubbish today. And obviously Dalglish was the one responsible for Agger slipping and injuring himself in the lead-up to the first goal.

The only one not acting in the interests of the club here is you, mate.

We were rubbish today, certainly. We played with no urgency whatsoever until after half time (ironically that period when you said Kenny looked like a rabbit in headlights). But my, how fickle we have become. We lose two away games that we traditionally lose, and now the manager must go? I'm not happy that we can't seem to find a game A when Carroll is on the park, but unless you put the players out there they won't gel, and today Carroll and Suarez had all of 20 minutes together. We didn't start well, but Skrtel made at most 3 forward passes all game, and our right flank is usually very active. Not good enough, for sure, but Kenny's signings were not the reason we lost today. Adam was unlucky, Agger got himself hurt as usual at a critical moment, and Skrtel might as well have worn a white shirt today for all the good he did us. We might have managed against a lesser side, but Spurs played well and deserved the win. That's not reason enough to call for the manager's head. After all, two weeks ago we were unbeaten.

This is premature. Away to Spurs is a tough game, and lots of sides will lose there. It's also the first and only game of the season that we've been outplayed.

You're also wrong if you say all of those players are poor to average. Adam, Downing, Henderson and Carroll are all good players. None of them have been great though. Which means too much money was spent.

We've got Wolves at home and Everton away. Win both and we can still get top 4. It's early days. Kenny has until Christmas at least. But I'd expect 4 points or more from those next two games. Any Less and it indicates some problems.

I would be shocked if John Henry does'nt have some sort of word with Dalglish after today especialy with him giving the manager all that money and full control of team affairs.
