He has missed SO many sitters in the recent games. count them if you wish. and the challenge made on Stubbs was totally unacceptable. it was simply uncalled for.

This is the 3rd Baros thread on the same page...
yeh Owen would have had a hat-trick no question. Though we know he is capable of missing the odd sitter as well.

baros is still a young lad and his goal return isnt that bad.
if he causes as much havoc in every game as he has done in todays and the leverkusen game then i will be more than happy.
he just needs to sort out his attitude.
by the way regarding the sending off i remember michael owen doing a similar thing at old trafford. its the only sending off in his career to date and whilst not condoning a bad challenge i admire his willingness to get stuck in.

I thought he got send off in a Madrid game recently or was I dreaming

[Chrissy]

Baros is gud player, but even icould have scored against martyn. He commited himself, so all baros had  to do was knock it to the side of him and then tap it into the net, not be all fancy and try and chip him.

[Eazy-E]

I doubt Baros meant that tackle. I felt sorry for the guy.

[Ciggy]

Oi dont be critisin Baros  he became a Liverpool playa today .
What do you expect miricles, it was always gona be hard for him to score today. just leave it get behind the players , no sh#t

i thought baros played really well although he proved yet again that he is not reliable to say the least infront of goal. as for the sending off i haven't seen the replays on tv but from where i was sat it looked pretty bad.

the big problem i had though was with stiles' inconsistency. i could agree with baros being given a red card, but not in the context of his soft approach on the likes of weir, hibbert and ferguson.

Was it a straight red???

[yckatbjywtbiastkamb]

Was it a straight red???

yes, and to be fair it would have been twenty years ago as well. it was right by us and baros was travelling pretty quick when he flew into stubbs. it was a shocker and a potential career threatener.

[JohnnyAldridge fan]

Hes still our leading scorer

[Dalglish]

Hes still our leading scorer

Not diffiult when the competition are all injured 


To be fair to Baros he makes things happen and for his sake I'm glad we held out today after his sending off for a selfish and shocking foul.

[REDTILLDEAD]

Baros will never become a prolific goalscorer, he just does not have it, he should be sold in the summer, he could have wrapped the game up for us to-day he missed  a couple of easy chances, it could have cost us the game!

It was an indefensible challenge really, and to be fair he knew it at the time. It was a nothing area of the pitch, he overcommitted, and thankfully it seems that justice was served. No harm done to Stubbs, and a decent fist at salvaging a point on Everton's part. Just a shame that he'll be suspended during the run-in, as he's been terrifying defences lately.

As for him being utter **** - b*****ks. His control badly let him down for the first one-on-one to allow the defender back, but to be fair Martyn made a fantastic save with his foot in the second instance. Baros had done the hard work by feinting to make the keeper commit one way, and he was just a bit too casual with the finish. There are a lot of keepers out there that wouldn't have gone after the ball with their feet when they'd been floored in a one-on-one, and I'd credit Martyn for a save instead of Baros with a miss there.

When a player's beating the offside trap as much as he is, and let's not forget that he was pretty much owning one of the Prem's most miserly defences today, then you have to say that he's moving in the right direction. The more often that he gets into positions in front of goal, the more adept he'll get at converting chances. He's still a very raw talent, but let's be under absolutely no illusions that he's anything but an asset to the team.

In my first 11 every week, no question about it.

milan baros, eh? what can you say? the guy works his blo.ody socks off, runs all day, gets into some greta and dangerous positions, has a fantastic effort just miss...


but to miss those two glaring chances? to go off with a stupid stupid challenge? he's carried us a number of times but maybe he isn't really the quality we need up there...


i'm p*ssed by the way
