2nd goal is defend mistake. same with 1st and 3rd goal. heading ball is not so easy to save.

honestly, it doesn't matter to me if the scums win number 19 this season or no, all I'm hoping is just to bounce back and challenge the top 4 again. Am in no mood to post all my rants on RH, I thought we were great at defending and dull when it comes to attacking, I change my thoughts, we are now neither good at defending or attacking. Where are all the critics? Why blame Torres Jamie? I thought you have always liked to blame managers, oh wait, Rafa is Spanish

That aside, we offered nothing as an attacking force and I can now understand why Hodgson's Fulham were abysmal away.

Que Sera Sera.

Troller? How f***ing can someone save that second goal?

taking into account from both games against birmingham n manu, i can see we look really shaky defending crosses.. at times we are so easily opened up and another talking point would be we play so narrow at times i feel like we are playing the diamond formation.

wow, after reading through so many pages, not even a single one of you mentioned NGOG??
Have you guys noticed it was after Ngog came in, then we had the 2 goals?

Before Ngog, Torres had nowhere to run, being heavily marked by defenders, he could do minimal damage. I barely saw a great run from him before Ngog.

After Ngog, Torres was freed up a bit and resulting in better runs and eventually got us the penalty and free kick. Also, I could see Ngog almost everywhere around the pitch. He even ran all the way back to our D box to snatch the ball off scholes' feet!

This kid is maturing and will be a key player soon. I rated him and Babel very high, however Babel is still finding it difficult to shine. Ngog is showing a glimpse of his potential. Although he didn't score, he made a big impact in the game!

Other than that, I think you guys should go easy on the team.

Although the team lost, I'm still happy in supporting Liverpool FC. When I heard "You'll Never Walk Alone" when we're down 2-0, it again reassures me that we are supporting the best club in the world. No matter the team are ahead or trailing, we're still backing them up.

YNWA~

I seriously thought Reina could have done better with the 2nd and third goal.For the 2nd, he didnt even try to save it...Just stood there and let it in.If he try and jump and it still went in, I have nth to say.The thing is he didnt even try anything!same goes with the 3rd, made the wrong judgement.A slight of confusion in him maybe...The normal reina could have save it...

our defence is constantly being bombarded because we dont have a tireless defensive midfielder who ran every blade of grass to nullify the opponents. Its been a sore point but some delusional LFc fans cannot see that fact. ok fine.  We been clearly exposed. I cant even recognised half LFc players, its much like a bottom table team assembled. We are LIVERPOOL FC, a team Manu fears playing then, not now, not when RH is there, not when we are in a huge crisis.

again, we will be still be ask not to be negative, but i can help feel sicken to the fact there we are even worse than graeme souness clueless LFc.

I'm asked to see last night game as a REAL turnaround of RH's Liverpool. The excuses for is already now more then all the years rafa was in charge.

If we get our points deducted (the tussle between RBS/cowboys), I'm pretty sure we will be fighting for relagation. that's is the reality. thats how bloody poor Liverpool has become. we are not the messenger of doom, but clearly the signs have all been there but we are butt delusional & arrogant to see that.

But I really thought Konchesky was kinda bad too... Most of the time he was caught out of position and Nani manages to drive pass him so many time n he wasn't really quick enough... I was wandering whr the hell is Aurelio wen we really need him...

Looking at the fixtures, the next 2 games are at Anfield and few more away but nt really with tough teams so I hope we could get more points out of this games... The next big games is in November when they host Chelsea at Anfield... Hope things will change by then...

On the 2nd goal actually Konchesky could have saved it as he was supposed to be the post man but I wasn't really sure what he was doing by standing slightly further away from post n hiding behind Reina...

The next Leeds?

Roy Hodgson has faced a number of niggling criticisms since taking charge of Liverpool. The majority of which are concerned with tactics, formations and player purchases.

One further issue though, which is certainly starting to grate on the nerves of some supporters, is the way Hodgson has spoken in the media. For the moment, Hodgson is still very much the media's darling. An English manager who worked wonders at Fulham and has landed a job at one of the biggest clubs in the country. What Hodgson has to realise though is precisely that - Liverpool are the most decorated club in England and supporters expect that their tradition is respected and the club aim to win every match they play.

Realistically Liverpool won't challenge for the title this season, it would be nieve to think so, but hearing such statements from the man in charge are still deflating.

Rafa Benitez was never a manager to elaborate much. When talking to the press, Benitez firmly held his cards to his chest. One thing he did emphasise though was the importance of trying to win every game. No matter how he felt inside the Spaniard always presented an upbeat front, upholding the tradition that Liverpool would try and win everything they entered, even if sometimes it was never possible.

It's the kind of fighting talk that Roy is lacking at the moment. Life as a Liverpool supporter is grim enough at the moment, but the manager must exhibit some sort of positivity. Take the recent games against West Brom and Birmingham. Here are some of Hodgson's quotes after the repsective matches;

"We had to fight very, very hard for it, all credit to West Brom for doing so well. Also, credit to our lads because these games are very difficult games - luckily the class of Gerrard and Torres won us the game. This is a very good result, if West Brom play like that every week they will get points off quite a few teams."

It's a cliche that there's no easy games in football, but seriously, West Brom at home? The comment about relying on Gerrard and Torres is a painful one. Liverpool have a number of quality international footballers who should be miffed at such a quote - it definitely demeans the rest of the squad.

"I think coming to Birmingham and playing against a team in such good form, 17 games unbeaten at home, we can feel satisfied at least that we won a hard-earned point. It was important to come here today and not lose the game because if we had of done we have Manchester United next and it makes life difficult for you."

Hodgson is right to imply that Birmingham away is potentially a tricky fixture, but to state that it was imperative not to get beat with Manchester United coming next insinuates that he's not exactly hopefuly for the trip to Old Trafford.

Most recently of course, Hodgson has re-affirmed his friendship for Mr. Ferguson. Not a good thing to do when you manage Liverpool. Ferguson has had countless swipes at Liverpool down the years and continues to do so. Befriending the opposing manager of your fiercest rivals probably isn't the best way to endear yourself to an Anfield faithful. By all means, Hodgson has a right to be Ferguson's chum, just don't openly state it in public.

The new man in charge must grasp the philosophy of Liverpool football club before supporters become totally disorientated with proceedings. Perhaps managing a club with the ethos of Fulham, a London club forever in the shadow of much bigger sides, has ingrained the way Hodgson talks. 'Little 'Old Fulham' were the underdogs throughout their Europa League campaign but Hodgson is in different waters now and the quicker he realises that the better.
