Of all the new players we bought in this summer, Poulsen is the ONLY one that failed to impress me... What the hell are we playing an uncle that cant even hold and pass the ball well? Yea, screw Lucas but at least he makes better passes than Uncle Poulsen!

As for the back four, the only one who can held their head up after this match is Konchesky. Surprisingly, he put in quite a performance.Solid and nice passing of ball. Skrtel and Carra partnership is screwed yet again. Talking about Skrtel, he made yet another stupid dragging mistake that would have caused us a penalty.Seriously, drop him..I would take Krygiakos/Agger anyday!

tired of giving the tactics and review....one sentence...Liverpool played without imagination and movement ....and this is not first time....


the pattern is negatively same like previous match, except that Torres strike saved us the last time, and Reina's magic saved our blushes this time...

very worrying......very worrying.....

lucas paying the club to play lol

does the fact that only 2 teams won at st andrews last season mean anything?

i blamed mostly on hodgson rather than players...when u put two CM with no creativity this is the result you'll get...and only made 2 changes sums up what Roy aim in this match...that is to get A POINT!!

if we played with loads of chances and only managed a draw....its different....

St Andrews or not....the problem was with Liverpool....no chances and no creativity....

i thought B'ham played well.

The fact that Foster was busy eating pop corn at another end tell u something. We didn't even created any good chances/ It doesnt matter whether it's St Andrew or not...It's the team that I am worrying about...

my 10 words review

reina - 10/10

konchesky - solid debut

carragher - as his usual

srktel - clueless at times

johnson - good goin foward but suspect defending

ivanovic - trying hard but to no avail

poulsen - piece of crap talent

lucas - canot pass like xabi, canot tackle like mash

gerrard - off day?

maxi - anonymous figure

torres - rusty, damning body language, barca/madrid in mind? lol

subs

mireles - next game in line up pls mr roy

agger - to cross or not to cross, CenterBack thinking dilemma

roy verdict

bringing fulham travel sickness together?

LIVERPOOL verdict

mid table team with mid table mentality? hope not

damn right dude really sad seing how the team play tonite

im starting to suspect it's true now btw was glad to see Meireles came in after lousy 80 mins

i'll be more than happy to have Ivanovic at Lpool to replace Johnson

Substitution is so late in the game !! Both wings played badly and RH didn't make changes.

it is not too late for Roy Hodgson to realise this mistake , experiment time is over.

I am confident , Gerrard will play on midfield role once Joey coming back from his suspension ,we need Yossy or Joe Cole those type of player to open opponent tight marking system in where I think Jovanovic and Maxi fail to do so.

Even Carra and Skrtel struggle with Jerome pace and Konchesky? He have a good left foot but he seems in doubt to cross the ball to near post.Johnson play terrible today and have few bad 1st touch.

Seriously sometimes I am tired seeing Lucas and Poulsen passing the ball back to defender and how Carra everytime shoot up the ball without looking at the front player.At first I thought Jova will eat Carr alive but nope ... quite a dissapointing match but hope something new will happen next week. YNWA

the fact is..i want slap Liverpool ....
wtf midfield do? if cant be like Alonso, then try to be 90% of Alonso....and where is the through pass???? arghhhhhhhhh......stresss!!!!

well , this match is still better than when we lose 2-0 to portsmouth when they are in last ranking , St.Andrew is a tough place to go and in my opinion it is still no late for Roy Hodgson to correct his mistake.

while birmingham did played well for the game, today's match prove one thing, our team is slowly turning into a mid-table mentality team. Hesitant in executing counter attacks, obvious nervousness among our players, scurrying for balls throughout the game instead of organized marking and hold-up play, and many more.

and playing 2 players who went clueless upon having the ball on their feet won't help in any way. 4th game off the season, even though it's still early into the season, the sign is not encouraging. Hopefully the team will prove me wrong sooner rather than later.

On a sidenote, would love to see the following lineup for the MU match


Reina

Johnson Carra Agger Konchesky

Raul

Gerrard Jova

Cole Babel

Torres

my thoughts, we need gerrard in the middle of the park. lucas was poor IMO. poulsen did his job. meireles looks like a bright spark of creativity. it seems meireles will play behind torres, with joe cole out wide. right now, our best pairing is to have gerrard and poulsen in the middle.

p/s: i thought konchesky did well. hope the injury is not too serious.

and meireles looks rather exciting once he becomes a starter.

Added on September 13, 2010, 1:20 amand btw, 1 point is a good result considering how well b'ham played. Pepe Reina MOTM (where are his doubters now)

we've been consistently poor so far this season.. maybe Roy still got his Fulham mentality... to avoid relegation instead of to win the tittle...

too attacking style and with Carra and Agger, I dont think much can change from this system

our best lineup IMO is

reina
johnson carra skrtel konchesky

lucas(he sux today but he play well against ManU last season)

gerrard cole Babel/Jova

Ngog
Torres

with Ngog playing width on right and Gerrard helping in centre
