something to cheer u guys up

It's not his fault he was overquoted for 20m and for us to actually think its a reasonable price and I personally would take him for 10m. Yes he might not be a world beater and he isn't that awful, its just his pricetag he is failing to live up to which is not his fault. Fans are just frustrated by the fact that we wasted so much on him, so the hate is directed at the person who negotiated the deal which probably is Comolli.

I've never judged him based on stats alone, he just never impressed me. Yes not all wingers need to be able to beat their man but those are traditional wingers not as favoured in today's game. We need to have at least one of those flair wingers in my opinion. I also think that stats don't show everything, you can argue that he has created the most chances without a single assist but how many of those so called "chances" are good chances? It's subjective isn't it as to what is to be considered a "chance". How many of the 55 chances were clear cut goalscoring opportunities? Is putting in some random cross with virtually no one to aim for considered a chance?

You say don't let the 0 goal 0 assist fool us. I say don't let the 55 "chances" fool you.

Pepe is written off by many after a few games of under performance forgetting the fact he made many important saves prior to making mistakes.

I remember last season, many people were saying "Sell Jonjo Shelvey" after he under performed and now suddenly people said he has the potential to be as good as Gerrard.

Too emotional and always jumping to the conclusion doesnt help. After 3 games, we press the panic button. Absolutely immature.

Remember Arsenal last season? After few matches, it was all doom and gloom and then what happened? They ended the season on 3rd spot.

Impatient? We are Liverpool, not Swansea, our target is actually getting a place for a champions league and not battling a place from the relegation spot.
When we are top half of the table and then someone called for BR to be sacked that is what I called impatient.

you pretty much have to have former players that breath Reds to have passion like KD, Thommo, Sammy Lee or Evans. Problem is those former players with credentials are few & far between.
As for Rodgers, I'd still have my reservations. Just hope that BR proves me wrong with time..

Sunderland eh, dun have a good feeling considering our record in North East ain't good. Finger crossed

Me too   

how goals can somehow magically change the mood in forums :/

work in progress

sunderland consider lucky not lost at home...they dont deserve any point at all!..cant remember they threaten us apart from that lucky silly goal

Baby steps guys .. baby steps. There were some encouraging display. Some good movements, just lacking some accuracy in front of the goal. But for me the important thing was that we're able to get back into the game after being a goal down. That in itself is a progress.

I partly agree but i think that its too dangerous to let gerrard play deep without lucas to cover him.

I'm starting to think that it is. Without Lucas, our defense seems to second guess itself and we seem very exposed during counter attack. Notice how wide the gap between our defence and midfield ? I think this is due to players like Gerrard and Allen not used to playing as DM. Gerrard is too attack minded and Allen, despite his impressive display, does not like to get into aerial duels - he even messed up a straight forward header today.

"If you can't support us when we draw or lose, don't support us when we win"

Mind-blowing fact:

Rodgers said: “We are in the top three Premier League teams in terms of efforts on goal. But our conversion rate is not good and we need to improve that.”

The woodwork curse from last season has already begun. By my count, it is 3 now. Borini - 1, Johnson - 1 and Gerrard - 1.

They may need to practice shooting slightly below.

Don't forget we're playing Young Boys this Thursday. I'm expecting to see some of the younger players in action. Hopefully Suso and Yesil.

Buy another striker from Newcastle and try and jam him into our team's playing style...hmm...good idea! Lol
