  1. Ngog again….

    I don’t want us to get beat but I won’t loose any sleep over it either.

    The bloke just doesn’t have a clue.

    The way Nando is at the moment, I’d play Kuyt ahead of him with Gerrard behind. Or Babel at least.

  2. Where’s the creativity? Can’t Roy learn a lesson – we want to see attacking footie, not more boring stuff from the likes of Kuyt.

  3. Oh! I see. Now that he’s about to loose his job, he pretends to listen to us, the fans, by benching Konchesky and starts Aurelio. Roy you are out!!!

  4. Unbelievable!!! Dirk Kuyt makes the lineup again! He offers us nothing going forward Can someone please explain to me the obsession with Dirk Kuyt?

  5. When are Liverpool going to give babel and cole a chance they are the only 2 players in are squard who are willing to take on players and beat them. I would love to see babel and torres play together but i guess that are manager does not have the belief in Babel so in this case he should sell him.

  6. It’s a steady more balanced line up, it’s great to see Agger and Aurelio in the first 11 hopefully that should add a bit more creativity and take us higher up the pitch.
    I wish he would try someone else instead of Kuyt though, maybe Babel or Jovanic as Kuyt is far too slow and predictable.
    I don’t see the problem with Ngog, if anyone needs dropping it would be Torres, at least Ngog gives 100% all the time.
    Would like to see Gerrard come on to replace Lucas at some point to see how he performs with Meireless, on paper it looks a promising partnership.
    We need a win today, save the boos and recriminations until the end of the game if necessary.

  7. With the current squad we have the best team we can play and should be playing and should have been playing :

    Reina GK, Johnson RB, Skrtel RCB, Agger LCB, Aurelio LB,
    LUCAS DM/CM, Meireless CM, Maxi RW, Babel LW, Gerrard/Joe Cole AM, Torres.

    Kuyt and Maxi both do same thing, both offer no pace, speed or width both come inside all the time, so how we play both of them on each wing i will never understand. Kuyt offers work rate and Endevour, but that alone will never win us trophies, Maxi offers craft, guile, trickery and is a clever player, so it should be Maxi right wing and Babel on the left wing.

    Babel should be on opposite wing always until club get two out and out quick, fast, speedy wingers who play on either wing as he offers pace and speed which is needed out wide and what our squad currently lack so badly.
