The Big Footy Liverpool Army Part 2

[bus24]

The fact it took a deflection off the balloon means it is the problem.

Well maybe the stupid Liverpool fans shouldn't have thrown it on the pitch! There's a novel idea eh?

 

[grimlock]

Catch you at half time, when we're 3-0 up.

Only 1-0 down Mr. Pessimism

I still think we can win this.

 

[TorresIsGod]

It's in the rule book, it's a drop ball (thanks to our resident referee FC).

We're struggling... probably need Mascherano on and Spearing off... a bit more steel in midfield since Lucas and Spearing are getting smashed...

 

[TorresIsGod]

Only 1-0 down Mr. Pessimism

I was actually pretty confident we'd go alright.

Mascherano on for Spearing is a must.

But personally, I blame the shorts.

 

[topdon]

Meh.

Don't blame the balloon for more comical defending. Damage was done by the time it got there.

You do have a point, but goals aren't always scored due to poor defending. Reina had Bent's shot cover and the balloon deflected the ball past him. No matter how you look at it, that obstacle interfered with play.

If the rules state that the onus is on the keeper to 'burst' ballons in his penalty box, that is a absolute joke of a rule! The keeper's responsibility it to protect his net.

Geez, football has to wake up and realise that we're in the 21st century!! A video review should be conducted at half-time with the goal rescinded. We have video technology to decide these things. You can't expect a ref to make a decision like that at the spur of the moment.

I hope we hear MUCH more about this.

 

[Nuke Fremantle]

Meh.

Absolutely right. Massive gap left in the centre of the pitch allowed the Sunderland counterattack which led to the goal. Where the hell were Lucas and Spearing? Oh, that's right, being the b-grade midfielders they actually are.

As expected, a load of disjointed rubbish from our lot.

 

[grimlock]

Was looking closely at the youtube link, I think Johnson kicked the balloon and the ball deflected off him past Reina.

Spot on.

The silly balloon was actually in the Liverpool goal at the 2 minute mark. Pepe le Pew should have popped it then.

No, clearly hit the balloon and deflected past Reina. Johnson did kick the balloon though.

 

[Cruiser23]

This kid is dead...

 

[Philhawk]

Spearing has been shocking.

Why is he still on?

But in other news, that's some great midfield depth we've got.

 

[grimlock]

WTF when did Zenden sign for them

 

[PalaceGun]

a couple of days ago...

 

[PalaceGun]

What's wrong with your left, Bent?

 

[davey_magik]

Heskey might be shit individually, but he's actually crucial to Englands balance.

Cole can play the exact same role, he just does it better/

Heskey is better than Cole anyway.

 

[grimlock]

Good impression of Oman here.

If Spearing is the best we've got coming through the academy then god help us. At times like this it makes you realise just how special the likes of Gerrard, Owen, Fowler and Carragher were to be local lads who came through the academy and who actually could cut it at the league level.

 

[Philhawk]

Good impression of Oman here.

... and we're doing a good impression of Derby Country.

 

[Philhawk]

Take Spearing off FFS. Even Masch on one leg can pass it better. .

P.S - I love you, Jamie.

 

[Philhawk]

OK awesome, Masch and Voro on.

Good game, Skrtel. Good luck in the future with Tranmere Rovers, Jay.

 

[Philhawk]

Yes, 'Gogalicious on, Babel off. Good to see his performance vs Australia was a one off. The one time I don't want him to play well and he plays well.

Just swell.

 

[TorresIsGod]

We're gun as.

 

[Pie Legend]

Being fed by Sneijder instead of Spearing and Lucas makes a huge difference pal.

The whole team has been out player today tbh. Could have easily been 3-0 to them.

 

[Cruiser23]

Oh dear...

 

[kane249]

4 defeats already

I get the feeling this will be Rafa's last season at the club
