I don't think anyone can defend Kenny after that performance. I said to my brother when I saw the line up 'the guys on Koptalk are gonna crucify him for this'.
Very very painful to watch and something is just not right with Downing and Henderson. I don't rate Adam that highly, but at least he seemed up for the fight when he came on. Hendo and Downing just didn't seem interested and why why why did Downing not once break into anything nearing a sprint - looked backwards every time. I though utd were there for the taking in the first half hour
I agree with posters saying there was no game plan. I've said all season Kenny doesn't seem to know his best team or how he wants them to play and it's showing.
You have to wonder what will happen in the summer regards transfer funds and manager if we finish 7th. This will still depend on our home ties with Chelsea and Arsenal. We can still do it - but you just feel the confidence has all but drained from the team and it's hard to see a run developing.
I'd stil have Rafa back in a second - if only to see him retire Fergie. As bad as his last season was, everything was against him. Would love to see him back with some money to spend.

Yeah, I realize Kenny was pretty successful his first time around. I'm not questioning that record at all. I would just be curious to see how Kenny's last 12 months compare to any one of Houllier's years. For me, we were at a fairly low ebb at that time, but my gut feeling is that our league performances were better then. I'd just like to see some statistics. at that time Chelsea weren't rich and City and Spurs didn't overcrowd the top of the table.

Do you mean houllier at his worst and kenny now? I mean Kenny now and Houllier during any one of his several years. You can choose Houllier's worst year to compare if you want, but you could use any of them. What i meant was its a bit unfair to compare the 2001 season to now I agree, so we can compare another season.

Henderson played today?? I'd love rafa to come back asap aswell - i'm pretty sure that would spell the end of spearing, henderson, downing, carroll, adam.....thank phuck!

I've just killed a kitten.  Scum were a marginally better class of sh1te than we were. 'Nuf said. I'm furious...again. Thanks you bunch of overpaid pr1cks. Yet ANOTHER weekend totally and utterly wrecked and goosed. P1ss of back to your mansions now, and have a good read of your bank statements, and tell us all that you don't feel ANY guilt whatsoever to those that graft and work their bollox off all week, just to pay an obscene amount of that wedge to painfully watch that pathetic mealey mouthed UN proffesional 100% pure garbage.  Bloody disgrace, THE LOT OF YOU!. You make me want to puke.

Bloody disgrace, THE LOT OF YOU!. You make me want to puke. Now there is the growler we know and love! Tell you what matey, I may not be the most knowledgable footie fan regarding tactics formation and stuff, but I know pure sh1te when I see it, and I know damned well when I'm VERY upset. Launched the radio in disgust, and it's a damned good job I'm here at G Towers on me own, as I AM NOT in the mood to be asked to go to fckin' B and bass turd Q or any other such sh1te presently. I'm retiring to a darkened room for a lie down to try and erase this absolute horror show from my mind. I feel positively ill and sick with frustration and unmitigatred anger. I will however carry on supporting MY chosen team forever, regardless. Thank you and bass turd good night.

Come on.... everton...
If we're still 4 points from it after this weekend, we can still finish 4th from being the marginally least crap team outisde the top 3. I'd take it.

Seriously, we were Championship quality today. Didn't know what to do when we had the ball, so we just gave it away most of the time under no pressure. The rest of the time we just hoofed it upfield, which would have been useful had Carroll started, but oh look Kenny didn't pick him for reasons unknown. Gave away two soft goals, and managed to get a goal back totally against the run of play with Adam managing to not hit a daisy-cutter free kick for the first time in months. It really would be nice to know under what conditions we intend to attack with pace - because it's been two games now and all we've done is wander around the pitch with no direction whatsoever. Thankfully our next two games are against sides more at our level, so let's hope we can get through them unscathed.
We were a shambles from the top down today.
