rafa once agian burning his bridges this time with keane now with the team very flat and needs a change we have no keane maybe just someone with some passion to G up the lads well done rafa another massive fook up even buy your standards !

[NANNY RED]

no passion, some of the players playing today dont give a f*ck about the game

Babel being one of them hes a shi.thouse

But i still think we will win

[RedSi35]

no keane in the 18 im afraid

No keane?

Christ must have missed that.

Holy ..................wtf is Rafa up to?

[sgs]

Last nite I saw Barcelona play Numancia, with the latter playing 10 men behind the ball. Barca simply tore them to shreds with the quality of their movement and passing. Our game is stiff and predictable, with the inevitable cross into the box where everton is well set and can defend all day...

Why you would compare any team to Barce, especially an English team, is beyond me.

Barca?

two players

Messi and Xavi, nuff said.

Of the players are important, but I think it is also the way the game is designed and the kind of movement that goes with it. Ours is just simply lacks the edge you need to beat a defensive side.

We can cross the ball all we like, its all dependent on everton making a mistake...

I would have put on Keane as a second striker since Torres looks like hes up against the whole world atm but apprantly Keane isn't on the bench!

[Mikz]

Pass pass pass and no threat..usual story. Do these players wanna play for Rafa anymore cos it doesnt show

nanny thats a stupid comment he hasn't play alot he looks as if he hasn't played alot and only persons fault that is , is rafa's change the record will you ffs.

WTF mascha who was that to..

That was an astray ball like any good midfielder can do within an otherwise good game.

In my opinion Mascherano isn't playing badly at all, neither is Alonso or Gerrard despite the odd mistake.

But at the same time I must say I don't like how the team as a whole is looking right now.

Come on reds!

Sabre none of our players have played well..they have been a disgrace to the shirt mate!
DISGUSTED!!

I think we have won the midfield battle first half, just not shown any real creativity. Babel isn't helping by moving inside. While this allows Dossena a lot of room, we are winning nothing in the air. I would ask Babel to do much more running second half and stretching them down the wing.

FFS

Not good, we need to get a goal soon. We need to keep getting the ball into Dossena's feet out wide as we need width to stretch this sturdy back four out. I wouldn't want to be in the Anfield dressing round right now though

[NANNY RED]

Rafa needs to get his spanish hairdryer out at half time...

Hairdryer he needs to give a few of them a dig

[Raffmaker]

its not just this game, Monday, V Stoke and others, no invention.

Alonso should start shooting from 40 yeards.

[Emerald Red]

Need some of our players to grow a set of balls and try to skin players to get into wide areas of the box. All that f*cking about on the right for the inevitable floater into the box is just boring the tits clean off me. Too many square passes across the center not really going anywhere. No urgency at all. Rafa doesn't need a change of personnel; he needs a change of style of football in the last 3rd of the pitch.

Im sorry legbarnes, but Babel has been a disgrace! not even trying

[The_Rock]

Gerrard and Torress only have decent movement.

You would think with all his pace, Babel would run at everton and commit their defenders, but he does the usual punt ball and try and outpace the left back.

It has never worked.............he seems void of ideas................like the rest of the team.

Torres isolated and fed up on his own. Get Keane on, least he might pull some defenders away and create some space.

Poor poor performance

Babel is a real waste of talent...he is a real diamond in the rough....but think he is in the wrong club. If he was in arsenal, he would have developed better.....

Here he is coached more on defensive work than attacking work....
