I hate to be the caller of doom and gloom, but it happens. Ya this is the worst I've seen us in a long time, but a few bad decisions in the lineup caused us a lot of problems. Modric's goal was amazing, nothing you can do about that type of goal, and it was even unlucky for us because Agger slipped and that gave it to Bale. They didn't score again until 2 players were sent off. Adam's was very unlucky as he wasn't even looking at the player, just the ball. Skrtel's was stupid, but at the same time it was horribly exaggerated by Bale. We had many fouls against us that were way worse then that and the ref let it play on or didn't give a card. Simple fact is, ref was booking us for moving from the start and we couldn't get any fluidity going. Would that have changed much? How bad we were probably not. But going down 1 and then losing a man inside 25 minutes is a bit of a confidence killer. Skrtel goes off and we concede 3 more down 2 men away to a spurs team who played the best they've played all season...
We are going to g thru times like this where we play bad. That's the simple fact of it. We just happened to play bad away against a good team playing well and get 2 men sent off.. How you can expect anything differ, I don't know.
I'm really upset too, I hate seeing Liverpool play like this, but we have to get used to the fact that we still aren't the best team away, and we're going to have games like this.
DESPITE THE FACT I LIVE IN CALIFORNIA...
