Oh, and another thing. Krul's kicking, my word. Do we pass the goalkeeping clown shoes down between the generations? That's Harper, Given and now Krul who probably couldn't kick it in a 50-yard radius, let alone onto a 50p piece.

He was probably one of West Brom's better players, I'll give you that. His ball retention was probably even worse than it normally is. The crowd cheered when he was subbed, too. I'm not surprised - even the clueless cunt I was sat next to who told me that "Saturday was a game for Lovenkrands to come on I thought" managed to identify how much of a wank footballer this beak-nosed fuckwitt is.

I thought we were dreadful from start to finish. We had about two five-minute periods when we looked at it, one just after Ba's second and one leading up to Ba's first. You're right, we were garbage for the whole game really.

He was no less effective than Obertan as a right winger though

Krul Simpson Williamson Coloccini Santon Vuckic Cabaye Tiote Ben Arfa Ba Jonas ^ that would be absolutely ideal.

Obertan was fucking garbage today, absolutely shite. There's no benefit to having the cunt in the side whatsoever.

Who was that fucking cunt tonight? Gave us absolutely nothing. The number of times Ba was shoved over and he didn't give it, and then gave a lesser foul in favour of Long about 15 seconds later, I actually lost count of. Ben Arfa was also blatantly shoved off the ball late on, and he waved it on. Hope the cunt's knob falls off, he played a part in tonight's result. We were still shit, like.

It's not unfixable. Williamson and Ben Arfa can come into this side, and Obertan and Perch can come out. We'll look a world better.

If he doesn't start against Bolton, he might as well ask for a transfer. We were fucking garbage tonight, and he still can't get a start.

Coloccini getting absolutely left for dead by Shane Long had more to do with it, imo.

He made a class tackle after about 10 minutes, sliding in the box, got up and played a mint ball down the line - and the whole stadium applauded him for it. He seemed to take heart from that, and he played really well. Coloccini was quite poor on two of the three goals tonight, Perch actually looked areet for once.

Defeat. We never ever ever ever ever win on Boxing Day, and we barely ever win at the Reebok anyway.

I was going to say that was from the half-time whistle to Ba's second goal. We were ponderous, slow and static. No-one even seemed to want the ball at some stages.

He needs to drop Obertan. He was absolutely fucking garbage today, again. Shola on the right wing, too? Taking the piss, surely.

West fucking Brom. Every fucking season, man. They are absolutely nowt special and every time we contrive to lose to them. Obertan, Gutierrez, Simpson, Tiote and Shola were all fucking garbage today. HBA needed to be on earlier. Ba's touch totally deserted him too; he was quite poor outside of his two well taken goals.

Barton was playing shit before his assault though, Suarez is the most important player on Liverpool's teamsheet.

His new kid will probably beat Perch to head the winner, he's a Tchoyi after all.

This is the most important point.

The more that Kean isn't sacked, the more I think they can't even afford to terminate his contract and pay for a new manager. He was the cheap option, and Blackburn look as if they need to penny-pinch - Salgado was one appearance away from a payment to Real Madrid tonight and didn't appear in the 18. Quite telling, in a way.

Perhaps his ego? He has his own website 'coming soon!', constantly retweets any mention of him in an England shirt (dream on) and he's made his own fucking app for Christ's sake. If he was actually a bit good, then this constant media-whoring of himself would be a lot less irksome. Note how since Steven Taylor has now started looking like a very good PL defender, far less people criticise him for being the club's official soundbite machine.

He can still persevere with Obertan by 'resting' him for a few games and then putting him back in at some point over the busy winter fixture schedule.

Seeing as Everton's home games against lower sides often follow the recipe of 'concede the first goal, level in the last 15 minutes and draw 1-1', I'll be betting on Swansea to score first and fail to win, or 1-1, or something along those lines on that game. Will also do an acca and a few little uns on the NUFC game.

Agree with IP. When we were on the unbeaten run I could understand the reluctance just to pitch him in, however at the moment there's really no valid excuse, unless of course there's something gone on behind the scenes that we're not aware of (FWIW I highly doubt that notion).

Surely the most likely time for Ben Arfa to 'find form' is against the likes of Swansea, WBA and Norwich... not Man City, Man United and Chelsea? I really can't work out Pardew's thinking.

Do they have a Greggs in South Korea?
