Leave it out guys, for f*cks sake, ruin every thread, concentrate on the positives tonight, we've been sh*te ALL pre-season, this is the first game in a long while, where we have seen some real good signs for the future.
I liked how we moved the ball about quick tonight, first time in a long long long while, I cast my mind back to Benitez at his best, with the high tempo passing. We didn't allow the opposition to settle, because before they're onto it, the ball has been moved quickly. We are 1 or 2 steps ahead, this is exactly what we want and need to be successful in the modern game. Keep hold of Agger now and add a few signings, Adam Johnson or Theo Walcott and Dempsey and Allen, and we will improve massively.
One "negative" tonight for me was Jonjo dilly-dallying on the ball to much, he thought he had 5 minutes on the ball, and he was getting caught and then lunging in badly.
The rest of the team were quick thinking, but I think the moment got to Jonjo tonight. I thought overall Jonjo did well tonight. I agree that he held onto possession to long on a couple of occasions, and was a bit OTT in his tackling at times too, but aside from that, I can't fault him. Put in massive effort, and proved an effective cog in the team. I think he knows Allen is coming in to take the place that he's currently holding in the team, so he was trying hard to make his mark. He shined in pre-season, I think he was a bit guilty of trying to hard tonight, he may think after pre-season he is the dogs, but lets be honest, if he carrys on like that tonight he'll get caught out in the Premier League, some of those tackles tonight could have been reds in the PL. We've seen them be given for less, and the tackles only came about because he was lazy on the ball. Apart from that I thought we were good tonight, worked hard on the ball and just as much of it, Gomel played us of the park a week ago, different story tonight, we didnt let them string 2 passes together at times, brilliant closing down. Haven't seen this since Champions League 09 with Rafa. Pressing our game onto the other team, controlling the game. Oh and one more thing before I'm of to bed for a second time tonight (to hot to sleep) did Lucas give away the ball tonight? He passes so effortlessly across the ground, its magical. What a player, so calm, comfortable. Give it another year and Barca will be after him, I know he'll show the same loyalty as Agger, but does Lucas "have a price"......I hope the owners dont turn us into a selling club!!!!!!!!!

No why should I ?
Great player in the 70's which I remember do you? manager wise he is hopeless. I am entitled to be bitter over that. What do you know about it? Playing the age card, really?? Have a few drinks after the game, did you? I wasn't alive to see him playing in his heyday but at least I know a f*cking thing about respect. Your bitterness and disrespect earns you no respect with me, let me tell you. I don't give a sh*t how old you are. its you who needs to learn a bit of respect, stanley is a well respected member of this forum unlike you and that poision you have just spat out, his views are probably more fair than most on here which I think he bases on his experiences of attending matches for years, I bet you dont even go the game, you need to wipe your mouth before each post you write because you talk so much sh*t its starting to stink. BTW stanley is spot on with his assessment of that clown Dalglish, great player as he was he is the worst manager we have had in over 50 years and we will be paying the price of his incompetence and reckless spending for years to come.

Poison? Coming out of my mouth? This coming from you, seriously?
I just want to make one thing clear - I have no interest in having a debate about how poor Dalglish was for us. That's not in question here, I just value respect, and it sickens me to see such a high level of disrespect shown to a club legend - regardless of how bad things have ended for him. He did his best for us and his best wasn't good enough. He failed, fine. But he never did anything through malice or lack of caring. That's clear. Common decency - is that too much to ask?
I happen to like Stanley, as I have always done as long as I've posted here. I've no problem him, you or anybody else giving out about how bad Dalglish did last season, but the degrading name-calling is sickening and shameful. I won't show respect to anybody who is incapable of showing it themselves though. You get what you give.

Suarez was man of the match setting up the other goals but he's not good enough? Think you spend too much time in the chaser or the farmers arms. think Suarez is world class at nut megs, flicks, fancy turns, knocking the ball one side and running around the other, bamboozling defenders, dummies, making space, running the channels and stretching defenders... Unfortunately he plays up front for Liverpool Football Club and does'nt score goals so whats the point in all that. He set up goals tonight and last season he had to score and create on his own in most cases! Big job for anyone to do! This season he has Borini, unproven yes, so if he sets up two every game and doesn't score for the whole year I will take it! Assists to me are just as important as scoring so I believe that Suarez will have a goal and assist total of +30 goals this season! I'll take that!

To be honest though, there's actually worse page than this  It's not all bad, but some of the bickering is unreal - especially between (supposed)fans of the same club. Couple of WUM's on here no doubt. Could be worse though, pages with fans of all clubs posting (teamtalk ect.) are absolutely vile - the 80's hooligan has gone, but the internet age has done more to embarrass the game than anything else. Ah well..

Moores and Dalglish (manager) both men have wrecked Liverpool FC in my view and those of my once match going (now TV watchers (priced out) ) mates.
Nothing will change that I dispise them both for what they did to this once great club. In the case of Dalglish he had two bites of trhe cherry and its hard to say which era he did more damage. When I hear people say legend (the brand) it makes my flesh crawl.
I guess we will have to agree to disagree on him. But not Moores I am sure.

Each to their own I guess. I think Kenny was lucky to take over a team already at the top in his first stint, he did what he could the second time round - better than Roy (some of the worst football I've ever seen - even tops that of Geds final days) but it was Kenny's signings left a bitter taste. Despise is a pretty strong word. I'm sad you feel that way. I'm not even gonna get into the whole Moores discussion, he wont be getting a chrimbo card from me though As for all that "Legend" or "World class" malarki... those two terms give me the shits.
