Playing for 0-0...

we do have the quality to beat teams like liverpool, but not if we play for draws... we need a winning mentality ... our football is far too negative

 

We should never, ever play like that at home ever again. It's scandalous, tbh.

liverpool won 8-0 in the champions league a few weeks ago. people are forgetting this.

 

No one's forgetting it, but this was a home match: no team should be as comfortable as that at St. James'.

 

this isnt the keegan years. we dont rape and pillage teams anymore. liverpool spend god knows how many millions in the summer, we spend hardly anything in comparison and from looking at that match thread (post kick off) most of the posters expected victory. we cant just beat every team anymore. we are overrated in our own heads.

Did you see the game? Watch the highlights if not, and you'll see what people are talking about.

Is simply playing like you want to be on the pitch too much to ask as well?

I'm sorry, but even the likes of Birmingham City, Sunderland, etc. played much better against Liverpool than we did. It's nowt to do with being gung-ho, it's about giving them a fucking game, at least.

Besiktas won the home game 1-0 though

 

it was 2-1 with a liverpool own goal. they were fairly lucky to win that game.

i saw it and yes, we were dominated but liverpool are a top quality team, they make decent teams look poor.

To be honest I don't think we set out for a 0-0. Away from home this season we've been trying to contain teams first half and break forward second and I think we attempted this tactic today, Geremi supposedly being "the link" between midfield and defense.

 

However, as soon as they got the second our heads went down and we rolled over. This resulted in our neat (but very rare) passages of play turning into a long ball game, which inevitably played into Liverpool's hands...

Is simply playing like you want to be on the pitch too much to ask as well?

 

football's changed. it doesnt work like that anymore. its talent over desire (for the most part anyway)

No, it's both, we have a fair amount of talent but seem to have zero desire. Won't get anywhere without wanting to win. Liverpool looked like they wanted it so much more today. Ignore the fact they are a better team talent wise, they wanted it more and that is why they did us all over the pitch. You can have as much talent as you want but if the player doesn't want it, there's no use them being on the pitch in the first place.

after recent performances (if not all season) i'm beginning to think SA is on a Souness style mission to be sacked. He is doing exactly the same shite...crap formations and players out of position.

 

Today his subs simply took the piss.
