KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum CONFIRMED TEAM & MATCH THREAD - HEARTS

No way even the weakened team had more class than a full strength hearts and with a better team at Anfield the tie is effectively over. You predicted otherwise that must be a crushing blow for you. You have my sympathies.

dont know what tie you were watching but a 1-0 away win is not a formality against any scottish team. I think we will win and go through but Rogers will have to field a stronger team in the second leg in order to make sure, dont forget Hearts could easily get an away goal as we are capable of being that bad especialy with Carragher in the back four and I dont know who you think will score us the goals considering how poor our forwards are, even tonite was an oggy. There was no need to field a weakend team tonite you could see how much better we looked when Joe Allen came on if we threw on another 3 or 4 first teamers we could of won comfortably to make the second leg a formality, not now tho, we will have to play a few more first teamers three days before the visit of Arsenal when we could of just sacrificed the City game instead if you are going to rest players.

surely winning one nil justifies the team election?

IMHO Shelvey has talent and potential BUT he is slow and tonight his passing was woefully sloppy.

Still looks like Carra is 1st reserve CB, which is very worrying. And as I said at HT, Hendo, Spearing & Adam need to be shipped out ASAP.

Still too many long balls, still a lack of movement off the ball, still a first instinct to go back instead of forwards. BR has a lot of work to do.

However, 1-0 away in Europe is not to be sniffed at and for all their effort and possession, I didn't think we were troubled too much throughout the whole game.

No way should we sacrifice the city game. If we win that which I have a gut feeling we will our season is off and running. And you watch the threads popping up on here can we win the title Brendan has turned it around etc. Till the next defeat. But I consider myself a reasonable judge of character and I have seen 12 liverpool managers in my life and I have a good feeling about him. Look at his press conferences compared to Dalglish ok press conferences don't win matches but they do instil confidence and morale in both the players and the fans.

I like the new Stan.

A Liverpool "fan" that talks about sacraficing any game, never mind one against the reigning Champions at Anfield isn't much of a fan in my opinion.

This is of course only my opinion and I respect your views.

Stan- The New Legend

Lets not get carried away now he's ok.

Oh alrite then

Stan - the New OK
