itt liverpool not winning things; sandbox i love football

yeah it's coming.

and again ffs

this is going to hurt

oooh

"Fulham just sense that they might be able to win this game"

what a save

Argh!

FFS THE POST

there we go...fuck sake

.,?)£

ggghhjdgkk

dddeeeeuuuucce

itt

this team can't be relied on to score, and isn't good enough at the back to even remotely get away with that.

I know, £100 million buys you nothing these days.

back in your box you

Is it just me or does Reina make quite a lot of mistakes these days?

he is a bit shonky...i guess he makes lots of great saves too.

De Gea is statistically the top EPL goalie btw

not in opta's "least pubic sideburns" figure

remember when you used to go on about how overrated Van Der Sar was?

yeah and then he fucked up royally in the CL final as a timely reminder for you all of me being correct.

not seen enough of de gea to be honest to pass judgement...

De Gea is settling in well. Now that the storm of lolz that initially greeted his every move has died down

did that happen to bebe?

That was exactly the outcome i was fearing. Ach, every team has the occasional result like that ... but when it happens to City it'll see their lead cut to 20 pts or something, whereas there Liverpool are in mid-table.

Yeah, was a clear red in retrospect.

No, not a red. And i don't see the comparison mizzell

Was lucky not to break his leg imo, it was no Rodwell.

tonight made a grim day induced by drinking all weekend even more grim. sometimes i think liverpool cosmically chose me.

sorry, i misread your post and, anyway, there's no real connection, i just like thinking about bebe

someone needs to i suppose

ffs liverpool can't rely on you to do anything

Except consistently delight, perhaps

Definitely a red card - gets more ugly every time I watch it. Dembele was lucky that he didn't get seriously injured.

another charge for Suarez then...

Anyway. I was really impressed with Henderson again. He played some lovely one touch passes. Beautiful driving run and shot in the first half, too. Really like him.

It means something different in Uruguay

He's seen middle-fingers pointed at him from the stands in Holland for too long to use that excuse tbh

Guy on the left doesn't seem too offended by it

Liverpool fans, what is your opinion of Suarez's current form and shocking chance conversion rate?

he's lost sharpness, imo- maybe needs a rest

He's playing well. The strike rate is puzzling. He does snatch at things occasionally and there's the odd shocker, but nothing worse than most strikers. I don't know why he isn't scoring more. I suspect it's just chance.

I do wonder about his strike partner though, it's got to weigh upon the choices he makes. There may also be an impact in his getting crowded out a bit more, defenders knowing he's the one to mark.

Maybe there's something playing on his mind, something that wouldn't have played on his mind if he'd said it in Uruguay

Of all players to have scored three or more PL goals this season, Luis Suárez has the lowest shot conversion rate (7.7%)

Can't be just chance

it's not just chance, no

His finishing seems to be the poorest part of his game, he can hit a long shot and get into position but he's not lethal enough

I do think the lack of a partner is putting him under pressure tho, teams double up on him and nobody is using the space that creates - carroll isn't mobile, bellamy's on the wing, gerrard is injured, no other midfielder makes advanced runs with any frequency and kuyt hates the box

I thoughtfully omitted Opta's trademark one word summation there btw

Suarez has been banging them in for URgay recently - four in his last match? - so I don't think it's necessarily about his own lack of sharpness. But I think even last season Kuyt and Maxi were main beneficiaries of him causing havoc in the area. As he showed last night, Carroll isn't really up to it.
