If you look back to Torres' best form at the club it's been when Gerrard has played almost as his strike partner, or as a number 10.

That would be my choice.

Nothing you've said there is unreasonable. Even the old feckers like yourself cannot remember a manager so destructive, so disliked and incompetent. The sooner we're rid the better.....standards and all that.

Good stuff, hope they're given the chance to prove themselves. Both good prospects.

True, but to a point. Unfortunately, because things are so consistently mediocre on the pitch supporters look for solace and comforting words from the manager, be it via press conferences or interviews. We all know now, that will never happen. Then there's that all important, overriding issue of the League table - that's the silver bullet. It's all very worrying for me, from the top down.

Interested in what other mode of reaction you expect ? I really don't think it is an issue of support, or blind hatred for anyone. Things are actually that bad, and people need to vent their frustration. I dont see the problem. I'm over it now with the manager, nothing he does or says will surprise me now. Its mediocrity from now on until events unfold naturally.....

Just because you seem to think certain things are acceptable, it doesn't make it so and the playground "moan" logic applied above isn't true either. There's been some positives this season, but very few. You are aware we are 10th, 1 away win and 19pts from 15 games. I don't see how you can expect anything but utter contempt for what is happening....

Yep. Time to stop whinging and accept mediocrity.

I don't see the problem with mediocrity myself. Looking forward to receiving my nicely-lined cotton shoes for Xmas and some cosy fitting headphones, so I dont have to listen to all the whinging morons moan about how bad Roy is. I mean he's trying his best isn't he, and it's not like we've never won anything is it ?

Who is this mythical whinging, naysayer. Stone him.

Nothing that special. That would be utopia.

Exactly. What will it take to please some people that expect more than limp mediocrity ?

We qualified from the easiest stage of a European Cup comp for 10 years, with 9 points

Roy still defrauding us all then ? Oh well, onwards and downwards.

It's all in NESV's hands I'm afraid.
