The CL talk is hogwash. They were totally surprised by last years finish but used it this year as a bit of PR flim flam. Pards is the main culprit behind a lot of the doublespeak.

PL midfields and their combative nature is light years away from the slower tempos of most european leagues like Holland.

Hopefully they're planning a Jan surprise.

our lack of movement is part of the tactics. just like fat Sam's west ham, we are encouraged to hold our shape, meaning players are limited to roam , hence the lack of movement, the more player movement the more holes for the opposition to expose. but....the but is that it screws up your teams ability to pass and move forward as players are too far apart. Hence the dependents on long balls. so formations means fuck all because players are told to keep their shape. Correct. The lack of movement is part of his plan beleive it or not. I'm beginning to think that getting one or two better players won't actually change anything.

That last bit says it all.

Thing about Daddydice is that although the football is limited it's well drilled.

If they haven't already our key players are going to be looking for moves.

There were a lot of games won last year from flashes of brilliance from Ba, Cisse or Hatem. The balance and chance creation of the side is so poor if we don't score from the handful of chances we do create it all falls apart quick.

He wants Carroll back.

People try and pretend ManU do. But they don't.

NT Spot on, this seasons performances are mirroring last seasons without the lucky results. Totally agree. Also I believe the poor window has sent the wrong signal to our top players who I believe WANT to play better football and must have wanted to push on a bit this year. The formations are too negative and as a team we don't create much, hoping for moments of brilliance from individuals....These have run out for now.

MIght as well broadcast these games into Guantanamo...Worse than torture.

Take some people off and put some other people on.

Get Obertan on the right, take Cisse off and get Bafra central off Ba.

He loves it.

Out.

Cisse just runs anywhere.

We need an early goal to settle the nervy tummies.

Hi scoring, axe wielding - bloodbath. 4-2

What Liv need is a big strong target man who is good in the air.

There's some talk on RAWK to play Gerrard as a striker. Apparently Benitez originally suggested it 4 years ago.
