Outclassed, not much more to say about the game really. They've been pressing so much better, passing it really well, creating, running, dribbling, winning all the second balls. Poor effort and tactics today.
 
Some people have a team that they're loyal to, they know all their players, they know the stats...they wear their autographed jersey to work on casual Friday...and when they watch a game and their favorite player hits the game winning shot, or the team is playing well together...they're walking on sunshine for the rest of the day...but when their team is playing bad...or the referee makes a bad call against their team and their team loses...they'll yell at the TV, slam doors, get angry...make the rest of the people living in the house uncomfortable. These people are allowing themselves to be made either happy or angry by the decisions of a select few people that don't know that they're a fan, they don't care about their opinion, and they would trade their favorite player in a heartbeat if it meant a better bottom-line for them. The stoics would say, they have ABSOLUTELY ZERO control over anything that's happening there...why would they allow themselves to be so negatively affected by it? Now most of us come to this conclusion without the help of the stoics, but this same concept applies to everything, no matter how small.Like I said, the Stoics separated all things into two categories, things we do control and things we don't control. The things we do control are our thoughts and actions. The things we don't control are...well...everything else.
paragraphs!!

Anyone give a summary of this jumble of words?
 
It’s like Poch used to say, this defeat wasn’t because of tactics or fitness. It was mental. The players didn’t believe. Where was the fire in the first half? Where was the intensity?

Liverpool lost 7-2 to Villa earlier this season, did it stop them? They just got on with it. We started to believe we could win the title and after one bad result, we’ve crumbled. People will have a go at Mourinho and he is responsible as the manager, but the players have to take responsibility too. They went soft.

What happened to the team from last week that almost beat the champions in their own stadium?
 
Jose leaving dele out of the squad is an interesting move. Not putting the striker you were whining about not having last season bone head move. I just don’t get the game plan Jose has. 0-2 down and you don’t put on a fucking tall striker who can hold up play? Fucking ridiculous.
