It is typical of the season we are having that we play 3 CBs and yet Firmino gets a free fucking header like that.

The table at New Years proves you utterly wrong though
Other than the sitter he admittedly missed he had a decent game
If it wasn’t for him breaking up their attack outside our penalty area in the first place there wouldn’t have been an attack you dimwitted cunt
We’ve had our match report so you’re now redundant now fuck off
Nope. They both had Ok-ish games (as did Lloris).
However the Sissoko miss and the Lloris mistake were shocking may be season-defining.
But only 1 match was a draw, almost two after today.
Levy needs to buy Lloris a new pair of gloves from the looks of it.
And the table now proves us utterly right!
Maybe not dishonest as oppposed to what most thought would be the likely outcome.
But we make mistake after mistake after mistake. Or mids chance after chance after chance.
Look it's 4 years. 3rd, 2nd, 3rd.
We have the experience but something does not click.
I never said this. You can sign anyone you like in January (Carroll, Samba, Torres etc etc).
But you don't. You do your serious business in the Summer
Except me. You don't sign in January. End of. Please check my posts if you like.
Business is done in the summer.
Yes we should be be doing better then 1 point from 15 with the team we have. But maybe I'm wrong. Too many players we thought we could rely on look like they aren't up to it. I'm talking about likes of aurier, trippier, Hugo. That's before we talk about some of the midfield. Maybe with more competition and certain players not feeling so safe in their position would definitely make a difference. I don't see what else could be going on.
This is archaic thinking. With 3 points for a win it’s about points dropped, period. 32 points dropped. Doesn’t matter of its 10 losses and 1 draw or 6 losses and 7 draws - it’s all the same in the big picture.
Only matters when it’s against someone competing for a top 4 spot, which isn’t Liverpool.
How many of these have come from reckless individual mistakes though?
For me it's a combination of that and not being killers in front of goal that has damaged us. The talent is already at the club, the mindset in a few of them sadly isn't. I still honestly believe that with the quality we have that it's not the quality, it's the application
I always ask this when people say about signings. Realistically who would you have signed talent wise to make us better? The quality levels are fine, the lapses in concentration or what's going on in their heads at the moment unfortunately isn't
None of that bullshit matters now .What the board did or anyone else. We can worry about all that in the summer. If the supporters don't get behind the team in a new stadium that is meant to intimidate the opposition with the players are playing in for the first time whilst in relegation form then we may as well give up now.
No the table from this calendar year shows that the January window was a disaster due to injuries and the sale of Dembele not being addressed.
Up to New Years we were 5pts off top, beating Everton 6-2 away, about 15pts above Utd and about 7pts above Woolwich and Chelsea.
We were in all the cups and had a semi final coming up after beating scum away.
Things were good. The summer window had been vindicated.
The January window has helped with the demise of our team due to injuries and form that have come about during the course of the season. And the sale of a player....in January.
It’s that simple and you can all pretend it’s not the case, but we all know you’re pretending you don’t get it don’t we

A lot of our results in the first half of the season were better than our actual performances.
The Hyperbole Police want a word, mate.
80s into the 90s we were left flailing where? ....The very mire this board has dragged us out of. I know today hurts, but i urge perspective.
A bad time for us now is not winning the league and the threat of no CL in our new stadium and rather than having them poached; as fans deliberating whether we should 'rid' ourselves of so-called world class players... Scholar & Sugar weren't in the business of facilitating such '1st world' woes.
All concerned need to rally up for some fucking huge games in the coming weeks...

Is there a more cursed club? Every time! Every fucking time!! What a pathetic bunch -- keep shooting themselves in the foot time and time and time again. Laughing stock, absolutely amateurish....Yes lets enjoy the shiny bowl of debt in the Europa league with players like trippier, davies and sanchez...cause the good ones will fuck off this summer even though they played such a big part yet another end of season meltdown. Its the hope that really does kill you.
Appreciate the history lesson (I remember), it wasn't me going hyperbole though!
