Got what we deserved. Even female footballers will dominate Downing. What an absolute disgusting performance from him in this fixture. I hope that cvnt Evra dies from the plague.

This is dire.

Theyre bossing us.

This will demand a Chelsea and Man City away performance with pace upfront and on the flanks. We will be pushed back and with good, accurate passing and quick counter attacks we can punish them. I would start Kelly at the right back. Johnson for me is out of form and we need some extra height if Carrol isn't starting.

We were far more direct in the second half with our passing and exploiting the space. And with Andy holding the ball up pretty well there were plenty of options to pass. Well done. Special mention for Andy, Spearing and Enrique.

Loving the look of carroll now.

Very good built up there.

I know.

Ok. Coat.

We're never gonna score.

enrique and kuyt really cant cross.

we have lost from clubs which had worse records.

unacceptable.

agreed. some of it is confidence but he has had almost a year. i just think he lacks some basic qualities to be a success.

he's not a good target man and below par at holding the ball. his technique is currently terrible. when he starts to run with the ball he falls over. he constantly needs three touches to controll the ball at this tempo. he has a devestating left foot but is not able to get into the positions to pull the trigger. the service to him is terrible. but he needs to much time on the ball. he worked very hard yesterday which might be a step forward but i cant see him improving so much that he will be suited whatever type of football we play. he is an ideal pinchhitter though.

unfortunately he doesnt have enough quality to turn it around as required.

He's a beast. Kenny really got him going.

I have the feeling this was his plan. Contain the pressure until the subs. Tiredness from midweek resulted in this. And it worked.

Seconded.

carra is not mobile enough to be defensive midfielder.

Dont like Downing coming from the right. I hope he's on the left.

LFC team to face United: Reina, Kelly, Agger, Skrtel, Carra, Enrique, Maxi, Henderson, Gerrard, Downing, Carroll

No wayne rooney today. Carroll and Carra to start.

Kuyt's agent confirmed Italian clubs (possibly Fiorentina and Roma) are interested in signing him this window but the club doesn't want him to go now.
