Jongi Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 Skysports player rating giving Spearing a 4/10 "Hardly notcied he was on the pitch" that's crazy. he's no lucas, but i have to say i still think him being a 2nd choice DM is not a bad decision. he'll have to work on his "enthusiasm" though.

Rafalution Posted February 1, 2012 Author Share Posted February 1, 2012 Wasn't they another yellow card? ....can not think who it was mind. Bellamy I think. Disappointed we've not brought anyone in. Really need some luck now I think. Hopefully we can start to do better against the smaller teams. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Divinity Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 Don't particularly see the need to bring someone in. The potential is there as proven in the last three games. Consistency is the problem. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rafalution Posted February 1, 2012 Author Share Posted February 1, 2012 yes exactly, there is the potential, but not the current performances needed. we've had the potential all season and aren't in the top 4 for a reason. someone with a bit of creativity or the ability to find the net could work wonders for us.

Emersonlfc Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 Potential has always been there but it doesn't necessary provide the required results and with Lucas out for the remainder of the season and the likes of Bellamy and Gerrard not as fit as they used to be, it leaves us light in the squad. Would have liked to see us taken a punt at Krasic or Kranjčar. Hopefully we can see the likes of Coady, Suso and Sterling push through into the main squad at some stage as its about time we start to see some developments in the youth program which Rafa en co worked so hard on.

Tony7 Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 Will never happen after they hit us for 4 the last timeWould work really well if we had Lucas fit to sit in beside Spearing. Adam not up to the job to do that holding role and I can't see Kenny committing so many men forward. vdv injured? VDV and Adebayour suppose to be out of the monday night game injured.

Rafalution Posted February 1, 2012 Author Share Posted February 1, 2012 we were losing/drawing with lower half teams with Suarez. Had Lucas then too Hopefully with Bellamy on fire, Henderson looking better and Suarez back it'll be enough to win those game, but by no means certain Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tony7 Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 I think us struggling to beat teams that sit back is more to do with our slow tempo and leaving striker isolated on his own rather than lack of ability in the side. Rather just wait until the summer because sides won't sell their top players while in Europe or challenging for titles and don't want to see us pay well over the odds again just to get someone who is no better than we have already.

Jongi Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 I think us struggling to beat teams that sit back is more to do with our slow tempo and leaving striker isolated on his own rather than lack of ability in the side. i agree with the sentiment. but surely the type of player you sign will also impact on the tempo.

Rafalution Posted February 1, 2012 Author Share Posted February 1, 2012 Exactly, replace Carroll with a striker who likes it into feet, and Adam with a CM who prefers a short passing game, and you play a very different style. Though from what I've seen I think Kenny is for some reason happy with the style we play, so who knows. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
knapp... Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 top win last night. enrique was immense. frustrating first half, really need to get more players forward quicker and supporting around the box, ridiculous the amount of times henderson, adam and jay were stood around the half way line busy doing nothing. got better second half as more space opened up tbf. never seen a team give up the ball so easily as wolves did though, we were literally jogging up behind them sometimes and taking the ball off them , awful. service to carroll in the box was still shoddy as **** on the whole, thought he played well though, his hold up play was really good and he looked alot stronger with his back to goal than he has done previously, his lay offs and general link up play were alot better too. for spurs i'd like to see: carroll bellamy suarez kuyt gerrard spearing Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

paperclips Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 Most of the cup final tickets are priced £70 and £90, didn't think carling cup prices would be that high. Liverpool have received an allocation of 31,745 tickets for this ALL ticket fixture. approximately 14 per cent of the adult tickets are priced at £90, 36 per cent are priced at £72, 33 per cent are priced at £56 and 16 per cent are priced at £40. Do the club get any money from ticket sales for the cup final? Also do not get that ticket pricing, i have been Wembley twice and it doesn't really matter where you sit as you get pretty much a very good view where ever you are in the stadium :S Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kopite Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 Very good win last night. Had a feeling we would draw but good to see all the lads up for it. Made ground on chelsea as well which is a big positive. I would like to see this as our starting line up from now on: Reina Johnson Skrtel Agger Enrique Gerrard Spearing Suarez/Kuyt Henderson Suarez/Bellamy Carroll I think Dirk isn't always the right man against certain teams and Bellamy can't play every game. Have one of them playing on one wing with Suarez on the other with the freedom to cut in. Carroll seems to have his confidence back and will heopfully kick on. I like Henderson playing further forward, I like the way he is always putting pressure on the opposition and when he has the ball is good at just playin a simple pass and moving in to space.

benjaminpeter Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 15 games to play, 60 points available. Spurs (H) Man Utd (A) Everton (H) Arsenal (H) Sunderland (A) QPR (H) Wigan (A) Newcastle (A) Villa (H) Blackburn (A) Fulham (H) WBA (H) Norwich (A) Chelsea (H) Swansea (A) Just looking through that, there aren't many 'easy' games. We're looking confident at the moment, I think the next 3 games will be pivotal. If, somehow, we come away with maximum points from the next 3 games, with no injuries/suspensions, the momentum will carry us forward and we'll take 4th. Big, big if's and buts along the way but hopefully Suarez will be on fire, Carroll will continue to make himself useful and Gerrard will remain reasonably fit. Looking forward to the rest of the season now tbh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Divinity Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 15 games to play, 60 points available. Loved this.
