KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum CONFIRMED TEAM & MATCH THREAD V WEST BROM

This can't keep happening. If its BR, the players or FSG someone needs to sort it out.

Not sure what the point of Borini is to be honest. Henderson was playing very well with Lucas. Shelvey was dreadful but it was his first game back. Downing was one of our better players today. Gerrard and Suarez had an off day. Enrique looked poor. Agger looked DREADFUL. Johnson likewise. Carra was good. Sterling and Coutinho looked ok when they came on.

Oh and Lucas I thought was actually class. For a defensive midfielder breaking up play and giving the ball to others to go on and do something (which they never did) he was very good.

i dont understand how we can play with such an intense attitude against the bigger teams and play like wet farts against lesser teams.we are just so easy to defend against.if you were watching that you were telling yourself all through the game"we arent going to score tonight".we could be there till this time tomorrow and not score.its easy for these temas,they are just under instructions to get men behind the ball and deny space in the final 3rd.the amount of times we didnt have bodies in the box when in crossing positions was amazing.we are a club in steady deline and nothing seems to be there to stop it.if we are not carefull we will become a permenant mid table side,hardly ever competing for silverware,sad but true.

Nobody was class tonight, NOBODY.. All of them were poor, especially Jonjo, Suarez, Enrique and Gerrard for me

As far as im concerned sterling should place his arse on the bench for a while. I threw up in my mouth everytime GJ and jose touched the ball. Agger ughhhh. Downing was the only positive of the game that had was a tough one to swallow.

Still feel sick after the game.

Is Sturridge gonna be the other guy we cant do without, like with Suarez if so we still a long way off the mark as it was shown last night.

Swansea next. Scared to even think about it.

I am sad to admit it but, my impression is that this was a very weak performance by a very average team managed by an average manager. The players were mostly uninspired and the manager appeared out of his depth. West Brom are no world beaters but they were not the least intimidated by coming to Anfield and confidently defended and attacked with equal confidence when they had an opportunity to break and score remarkably easily.

Steve Clark won this bout hands down against an inexperienced Liverpool manager. Lauding the playing prowess of Liverpool pre-match was a cunning ploy and seemed to work as most of the liverpool team seemed to believe it was enough just to pull on a red shirt as opposed to "showing up".

i dont see much point in singling out individual players for criticism. i will simply say that, limited as i am in youth, agility and stamina, i would feel quite comfortable defending against the might of Raheem Sterling and Fabio Barini. and i would fancy popping a few goals no-legs Reina too.

Game over man.
