lol Chelsea. What has happened to Fabregas and Costa. It is like they don't care after they got their trophy last year. And the ancient Terry and Ivanovic have got so old so quickly..

Meanwhile a DELICIOUS tackle from Coquelin leads to a pinpoint over the top pass by Ozil for the silky finish from Walcott. Reminded me of Viera-Bergkamp-Henry.

Chelsea defence is useless...they couldn't get Stones and so they have to make do with mid-table mediocrity!

What did Walcott's two missed sitters remind you of then? Chelsea will probably still pump us at the Bridge...

Worst United Liverpool match I've seen. Two absolutely f**king average managers going at it.

The Dictator vs The Imbecilic Genius.

Fabregas has been playing like this since January. Man mark him and don't give him time on the ball and he's just not effective. I dare say if Oscar was fit he'd be sitting on the bench.

Our problem is our right side defence and that's on Jose and his refusal to put Azpi at RB and drop Ivanovich. The loss is 100% on Jose. Attack our right side next week and you'll score.

The problem was it convinced a vocal portion of your support, when most level headed supporters could see he had a good season on the back of Suarez and a fired up Gerrard. I don't think he's a horrible manager he's just a little out of his depth and probably just needs a change of clubs.

But he really should have left at the end of last season.

He's a horrible manager, has no clue about defending, tactics or man management. Out of his depth is an understatement. This is season 4 of the BR show and what part of our football can you say he has progressed or improved?

The signings he's made bar a few like Couts have been a disaster. The fact that we sign players for decent money then either let them rot on the bench or send them on some sort of rushed loan deal shows how bad we are run.

If it wasn't for 2 lucky calls against Bournemouth and arsenal and wonder strike from Couts we would be sitting at the bottom of table. Same shit dished as up last season. We'll be lucky to finish in the top half with the clown running the show.

Klopp won't be coming to LFC unfortunately. Would be my dream appointment as well but it sadly won't happen.

Wtf is going on here ?

How is your squad that much different to last season ?

That's the problem. We didn't plug the holes in the squad. We used 14 or 15 players to win the league last year. The squad is thin.

We haven't grown it either.

Pedro is the only addition of value and it wasn't a huge position of need.

Teams know all you need to do is starve Fabregas of time on the ball and we have little to offer. Attack our right side and you're met with Ivanovic and nobody tracking back to help.

But the squad you had last year won the PL, yet the same squad is now not good enough, thats what I dont get.

You also have some decent juniors, surely you cant be as bad as your current form suggests, you got far too many good players.

Its also early days, still a long way to go but on the EPL app there is an article about Jose saying "I dont think we can win the league from here"

Martial looked good but he wouldn't have gotten close to scoring that goal of skrtel wasn't such a f**king Derp defender. Our shit defence made the kid look like Messi already.

Big Bens goal was a stunner, beautiful strike.

other teams have improved we haven't I'm not sure why that's hard to understand. We won the league with a thin squad and it's already being tested with injuries and form this season.

He's playing the kids but we don't have any ready to step up in the positions required. We lack a decent midfielder and Matic is overworked covering for Fabregas. The squad is only a RB and a midfielder and a fit Oscar away from turning it around.

Otherwise I could handle Leeds away on a Friday night like the old days.

f**king hell, sick of wondering what could have been. What could have been if the Saints held on, what could have been if we had even a slightly better manager with the likes of Benteke, because he's a f**king beast of a player. There needs to be some kind of protest to get this clown out, he's worse than Hodgson.
