Well hopefully he is right......

Hes been attacked from all corners, and yes hes probably deserved it with myself being one that..lets just say, have yet to warm to him.... Now i still dont think i will ever warm to Hodgson nor think he is the right man, YET we have to give him some credit.....4 wins on the bounce, 2 goals conceded and 8 goals scored. Good job Roy....lets see if you can prove many of us wrong and maybe.....get a chant from the Kop

eh?

Reina 8 Kelly 7 Carta 8 Skrtel 6 PFK 7 Lucas 9 Gerrard 8 Maxi 7 Meireles 6 Kuyt 7 Torres 9 my 1 ..2...2 1. lucas 2. torres 3. reina

His energy levels are fantastic, while otheres were tiring...he was the one continuing to get stuck in, and at the times was carrying the ball into the chelsea half being the last man forward.....also, hes learned the "hamman slump"

Gettinnn .outstanding performance!!!!!!!!!!! Even konchesky had a good game!!!

dare i say it, his best performance in a red shirt.. Was tremenous today, all the way through to the final whistle.....hes been showing signs of the quality rafa must`ve seen in him this season ......surrounded by some average performances Lucas hss been quietly effective.. I gotta say i didnt really rate him and wanted rid like many liverpool fans, today i feel we have all been proved wrong.. Well done lucas levia...outstanding

Has anyone watched spanish footy the past 2 seasons??? cassillas has been really poor, saved on numerous occassions by the madrid defence, he also wasnt that great in the world cup.....ohhh and messed up against milan 2 nights ago too..

not having that, spearing had a good game tonight

so lets just for a a second ignore Gerrard we know how good he is and what he gives us, but the starting line up.....how many deserve to wear the shirt? did any actually impress.....there are some who have started a few times this season that im just not sure about anyway.... ohh lets also take Reina out of the picture...... so... glen johnson - im with many on here what id like to see him tried at right mid, for as a right back...he is horrible, terrible with positional play and constantly makes the wrong decision.. konchesky - woefully out of his depth... the greek - i like the greek...but does he stand out as he is an average player in a shocking defence?? i kinda have to look at it that way Carra - gets stuck in...but is past his prime.....should have been phased out last season...love the guy, but he shouldnt be anywhere near a red shirt at present spearing - gotta give him credit , i thought he was our best player tonight..(apart frpom the obvious) wa sone who really looked to be giving it his all, got stuck in...full of energy and played some decent passes jovonovic - ummmm doest seem to have any pace...hardly ever beats his man...shouldnt be wearing our shirt meireles - strange one this.. i really,really want to like him....he looks the part but so far hasnt really shown much, he cetainly has the quality poulson - fking useless.. shelvey - all potential with him..starting him right hand side wasnt doing him any favours as i feel its one of the hardest positons on the pitch...espeically when your young and have hardly played ngog - an ok striker...never gonna be top level...shouldnt be anywhere near a red shirt honestly that was probably the weakest first 11 ive seen us play in years....so much crap in that first half!!(and pretty all the 2nd ) Henry has a massive job on his hands to clear out so much deadwood... Also hodgson on the touchline...jeeez he really is a joke, a pub manager who got lucky in the game.......we need him out as soon as possible. After watching ac milan - real madrid last night...a real true quality game of football...with proper movement and class...it makes me sad to look at the above team and see how far we have fallen... sorry for the rant....just fking sick of seeing such s**** week in - week out... And yes of course im happy F.C Gerrard won.................................................

Gerrard spearing (who i thought was excellent) errrrrrrrrrrmmmmm dunno who after that... maybe the greek

Sounds to me like Roy cant be trusted.....which well i agree with, i dont want him to spend any more money on the likes of friggin poulsen,konchesky and the rumoured targets like carlton cole.

suprised by the reaction to konchesky on here! thought he had a fine first half (apart from the moment him and skrtel went for the same ball in the box)...hes defended well enough and got forward well, plus in some decent crosses.

Thought he was one of our better players today.....would like to see him alongside gerrard with Cole pushed up alongside Torres

Hodgson of course doesn't look like he has a clue......if the manager looks like a nervous wreck how must the players feel

why? he has been completely abysmal...his performance against blackpool was shocking, id much rather Carra play right back....Johnson doesnt have the guts for the derby.

cool thanks! i`ll have to search for it!

listened to that on the radio......never seen the goals, are they available anywhere??

such a great goal.....also watch the way mcmahon and whelan close down QPR in midfield.....its not really that hard is it?? just shows effort and passion....now we have poulson and lucas! anywayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy what a great friggin side

Just dug out the video (well dvd as i converted it ).......had to cheer myself up.. Amazing really, we all hear about how football is much faster now with players showing better fitness than ever before, well watching us during this time, what struck me was how quick we were, how good our movement of the ball was and HOW it looked like every player wanted to win.. How you you would see players actually get to the touchline and put a cross in..ie barnes and c johnston, HOW now you see players consistently cut in...... Also HOW whelan and Mcmahon would work their socks off closing down players in midfield, why dont we see this now? why do we see players stuck in their positions and allow opposition teams to keep the ball.. So my reaction to watching this is a strange once, joy for how f`king great we were and sadness for how far we have fallen......players at the club that do not deserve the shirt (and this has been going on for a long,long time) I was 15 during that season.....remember going to the game at Arsenal where Steve nicol scored a stunning header, also i was at the anfield QPR game where Barnes really announced himself with a genius performance... also... i miss barry davis some great comentary on our games......."and he gets a kiss for it, from a man in a blue and white striped shirt" go ahead.....name the scorer and game?.....................................

so was in boston the other day....read a news article about us and the red socks, part of the piece mentioned that they were already in a deal with Fulham?!!?...something to do with marketing.. anyone heard of this?? the deal was apprently struck last year....Mr Hodgson - im looking at you....

Id grab Tarratt from QPR before he costs a ton of money in the summer Diarra is a good shout also forlan....

Wish that could happen, it would means putting Gerrard back alongside torres, which we all know...worked. Ther other option which prolly wont happen, would be shifting Gerrard right... i know he would be fantastic there, best crosser at the club....will show aggresion and get to the byline, can of course shoot...and will help johnson at the back If stevie doesnt like, just tell him... zidanne, nedved, ronadliniho played the same position..if you have the talent, you can really dominate games from that position.. ------------------reina------------------ johnson---agger-skrtel-----aurellio ------------------------------------------- -gerrard-lucas--mireles--jovonovic --------------------cole------------------- -------------------torres------------------- Playing agger at center back would also mean our defence will have more pace and so can shift up a good 10 yards, instead of sitting so deep.. Anyway back to poulson, hes s****.

it just got worse with stokes win at newcastle....ughhhhh 14 Stoke 6 1 1 1 4 4 1 0 2 3 5 -2 7 15 Blackpool 6 0 1 1 3 4 2 0 2 6 10 -5 7 16 Liverpool 6 1 2 0 4 3 0 1 2 2 6 -3 6 17 Wolverhampton 6 1 1 1 4 4 0 1 2 3 6 -3 5 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 18 Wigan 6 0 1 3 1 13 1 1 0 1 0 -11 5 19 West Ham 6 1 0 2 3 6 0 1 2 1 7 -9 4 20 Everton 6 0 2 1 4 5 0 1 2 0 2 -3 3

new york red - reina johnson agger skrtel carra gerrard mireles lucas kuyt cole torres jovanovic maxi All the above are top quality players from our squad, all have represented their national team at the highest level, should we be expecting more?? of course......i certainly didnt go into this season with the above group of players thinking at best we might get a uefa league spot, no with that group of players we should be fighting for the premiership or at the very least a champs league spot......its the managers job to make a great team from them, Hodgson blatently doesnt have a clue.........the guy has NEVER won a major trophy, hes got into top jobs by being a friend it, seems of the top brass.........also to see him walking round the pitch smiling with Fergie was sickening...
