I don't think this was down to Br starting team at all. Picking Cole and Shelvy up top worked. They scored the goals. Hell, Cole created Jonjo's goal too. When the senior players came on we lost the lead. The boys had the game twice and lost it. That last goal was on Reina I think, but everyone else should have closed it down. That was lack of discipline. They thought the game was over. That said, Assaidi, Cole, Shelvy, and Suso had great games. I don't think it would have gone better with the full team. The only decision I didn't understand was taking off Wisdom for Gerrard. We should have takin of Sahin.

I think Wisdom was injured and that's why he was taken off. We relaxed defensively in the last 5 minutes and should have shut the player down as he was given too much time on the ball.

Understandable, then. But that lapse happened to senior and youth players alike. That isn't down to BR. The players checke out. That team should have won.

I thought we played well and Brendan fielded a good enough side that should have won the game. We missed a few chances and should have killed the game off in the first half. Not much can be done about the 2 brilliant goals they scored. Was at the game tonight and couldnt help notice how good young boys support were - fair play to them

i didn't see the game tonight cos i was working. but what i can make from the highlights is that we were by far the better side but failed to get the result again. same old story really. shame cos we were so close to winning. but they did score 2 belters out of nothing.

people need to start making their minds up though. the same people that are slagging the manager off right now are the same people who were slating the importance of cup competitions during daglish's reign. now its a sackable offence to field a side that was probably stronger than the one we won comfortably with in the away fixture. and to top it off the majority of them would much rather see us finish 4th, or at least make an honest attempt at it than win the europa league. double standards

All the people moaning on this thread are the ones who whinge the loudest when we don't prioritise the league and put too much emphasis on the cups. BR is finally trying to keep his team the freshest for the prem and you're all moaning again. You really are an unreasonable lot!


At last some sense in six pages of complete drivel!

The way to get back to being a big club is to be in the Chsmpions League. Like it or not winning the Europa League or Capitol One cup isn't.

We all want to win thing I know I do but can understand the need to prioritise. You're just using this as an excuse to pursue your agenda against a manager that you've never given a chance. It's pathetic.

Does anyone else think that Hendo might come good? I think he's been better this season, and while he's not a great player and never worth what we paid for him, he is very versatile playing all different positions in midfield and right back last night. could turn into useful player to have on the bench, kind of like our version of John O'shea when he used to play every where for united
