I hope they're not true as I'd be gutted if Rafa left.

What? not at all, just an opinion. Pity you couldn't respond without a dig.

I think the time has come to stop pussyfooting about and for SOS or whoever to stop talking to the owners representatives with a parting shot of we are going to do what it takes to make their lives as owners as unbearable as possible. That will take direct action the type of which was mentioned by NYR? earlier in this thread, time for fans to wake up and realise these two muppets are killing our club and we are the only ones who stand a chance of stopping them. If fans dont want to boycott games or merchandise because they want to support the team, fine but dont come moaning about what the owners are doing.

If we are winning 3-0 he doesn't look bothered, your comment doesn't prove anything either way, if you are trying to use that as a stick to beat him with then its a cheap shot and wrong.

Ferdinand has got a four match ban

I'm sorry mate, but your arguments since you started with the ludicrous Capello/Mclaren comparison have made no sense at all. How did losing a pen shoot against Argentina, when England were down to 10 men be a result of him having lost the respect of the players or p****d too many of them off. In fact the committment shown by the 10 players left would suggest the exact opposite. He lost his job largely because of the disabled people paying for bad deeds in a previous life comments plus the involvement of Eileen Drewery and the uproar and embarrassment this caused to the FA.

True but you dont get much of a striker for nowt these days.

I believe Rafa has to take a lot of the blame for last nights result and very poor performance, simply because I think he should have started with the same 11 that started against Spurs. My reasoning is that after the effort and performance they put in merited them keepring their place, I know there will be arguments about the abilities of individual player, however I really believe it would have been a phsycological boost for the squad if Rafa had stuck with them. In addtition to this I am a great beleiver in continuity of selection, especially if the team has played well. I think picking Gerrard was a huge mistake given the reasons above and the opportunity for him to have made an impact, if required, was lost. He clearly wasn't match fit and I think if things had been going poorly, he would have had a bigger impact coming off the bench against players with tiring legs, not too mention the negative impact it would have had on the Wolves players seeing him coming on. This isn't a dig at Gerrard becuase I think he is one of the greatest players in the world and if he had been coming back from a suspension rather than an injury and was match fit or nearly match fit then I would have wanted him to have come straight back into the side. Unfortunately he wasn't and I think, given our performance against Spurs, Rafa missed a massive opportunity to help ease him back in and get back to fitness.

He should have told the manager he wasn't ready, he was woeful tonight and if he is that unfit shouldn't play. As unfit as he blatantly is he needs to put his ego to one side and accept until he gets match fit we are a better side, or at least more fired up under Carra.

You are so predictable in your comments you t***

Or why the f Gerrard is on the pitch. All the momentum and committment we showed against spurs has been lost. This result is down to Rafa believing Gerrard that he was fit enought to play, perhaps Gerrard (who when he is fit should be the first name on the team sheet) should have been honest as captain and said he wasnt ready to play, perhaps an ego thing.

Is correct.

The sad, attention seeking t*** needs to get a life.

No not in previous seasons we haven't, certainly not in the league.

I was also taking into account your reply to the previous post but feel free to ignore that fact, because it will allow you to defend certain posters.

Jesus, why are you so quick to defend Wayne? I know for a fact he is more than capable of sticking up for himself.

What planet are you on? You really are a knob!!!!

Chelsea never really played entertaining football under Mourinho, to say they did is just wrong, they certainly never played the way we did towards the end of last season. You are deluding yourself if you think anthing else

I'm sorry Kev but I would expect a liverpool fan to be a bit miffed with Sky for their continual hounding of a liverpool manager, or does your dislike of Rafa mean you will even accept their advert.

Mis-read your post but having said that I actually thought we probably deserved all three.

What a shock you come wading in with a criticism of people not properly debating issues, but you only ever level that at people who disagree with you, I wonder why?

They should re-release an equally embarrassing and crinch worthy version of the 1970 "Back Home" world cup classic, velvet bow ties and all.
