1: We were absolutely *****. Felt the players didn't show any passion. For me, only Suarez was worth his weight in gold. Think Gerrard know's he's not going to win the EPL (at this rate anyhow), and has maybe lost that drive and ambition as a result. Suppose the same can be said for most LFC players at the moment!
2: We were second to every ball. Lost possession easily, and gave the ball away cheaply, and didn't show any inclination to win the ball back. Stoke hounded us for every ball, LFC didn't have a chance to make any ground in the game as a result.
3: Why do we have to play the ball out from the keeper every single time no matter what? we don't have the players to do this, unlike Barca that have the quality in abundance. Opposition teams know we are going to do this, they press high up the pitch, put us under pressure, we lose the ball, they score........it is getting on my nerves.
4: We've got to sort our defence. We are rubbish at defending set plays.
5: As Thommo's Perm mentions, we have to play like every game like its a cup tie, it's a must, however, the team is not strong enough to handle it imo, and I really don't know what can be done about it at the moment. Don't know what anyone else thinks, but to me, all the players, except Suarez, seem to be mentally, physically, even emotionally drained (might be something to do with the things mentioned at point 1).
6: Can someone explain to me what tactics we were employing in yesterday's game, cause I have know idea...
7: Do we have a Plan B or C?, what is it? Whatever we were doing yesterday (and I've noticed in previous games when we haven't played well) was not working, but we kept playing the same way. Ridiculous.
