Liverpool
Everton
Worst game in FA Cup history anyone?
Never have I been so glad that the telly is borked.
The Model Club
Tell all the Bohs you know
that we've gone and won two-in-a-row
and it's not gonna be three
and it's not gonna be four
it's more likely to be 5-1.
Dire game alright.
Thought Pienaar could have easily walked before half time, 2 horror tackles on Lucas, who himself was booked for nothing but shoulda known better on a yellow.
Was only going to be one winner from play with the 10 men, Arbeloa was out of position for the goal, Reina had no chance once it took the deflection.
Agree totally about the socks, throwing objects onto the pitch is wrong full stop.
Looking like Mascherano & Plessis in centre midfield this weekend.

Pienaar and Felini could have walked and I reckon them being subbed was more to do with that than injuries. But at the same time Alonso could have gone too he cleaned Hibbert out when he was breaking through and had a nasty tackle on Gosling too. I think the ref did a good job to control it the game could have blown up in the hands of a different ref. Lucas deserved to go he could have been given a straight red for his tackle on Lescott and he had a hand full of equally bad ones.
Its amazing how badly Rafa treated Robbie keane but doesn’t treat messers Lucas & Kuyt the same.
Lucas has been terrible, whatever about Kuyts ability to score goals, he put in some shift last night especially when Baines pushed on up the left after the red.Originally Posted by anto1208

Im so sick of kuyt and all this hard working b*llsh1t, he has the touch of a rapist, can't pass, shoot or anything you would imagine a footballer should do, no way a top four footballer.....
He was moved into the middle when Benayoun came on and completely was anonymous.
more of a blow just heard on radio gerrard out for at least 3 weeks ... could be the final blow in liverpool's league challange
" football is a simple game "
At least we agree on something!!Im so sick of kuyt and all this hard working b*llsh1t, he has the touch of a rapist, can't pass, shoot or anything you would imagine a footballer should do, no way a top four footballer.....
Must be karma at workmore of a blow just heard on radio gerrard out for at least 3 weeks ... could be the final blow in liverpool's league challange

What a load of bull. His tackle on Lescott was harmless. Yes it was a foul but it shouldn't have been a yellow, never mind your suggestion that he could have got a straight red. You obviously just have a bias against Liverpool.
ANyway, Lucas is a terrible player who isn't cut out for the premier league, let alone a team aiming to win it.
Regarding the Gerrard injury, I'd a look at the fixture list and he'll more than likely only miss the away game at Portsmouth and the home game against Man City which I'd expect Lppol to win without him. So this talk of their title challenge being finished cause of his injury is also bull.
It wasnt harmless to Lescott, but he saw that Everton were breaking, and brought down Lescott to stop the break. It was a cynical tackle worthy of a yellow. It was the same reason Alonso got his yellow.
I agree that it was no way in the world a straight red, absolutely no way but it was a clear yellow as it was cynical as Lescott had made a good break up the pitch. There is nothing wrong with having a bias aginst Liverpool at the moment. They play the most outrageously defensive football around and have done for a very long time now, since Roy Evans left I would suggest. Even last night they had their worst player sent off and spent the rest of the match time wasting looking for penalties against a team they are obviously far superior to.
I suppose they are games that u would expect Liverpool to win but then so are these:
Stoke(h), Fulham (h), West Ham (h), Hull (h), Stoke (a), Everton (h) and Wigan (a)
And they had Gerrard playing in most of these!!

is the liverpool team, man for man really that far superior to Everton's? I'm beginning to think that's a myth? Apart from Gerard and Torres I can't see that much of a differance. There is some s hite in that Liverpool squad such as Kuyt (I know he'll run all day, but so will a four mile steeple chaser), Arveloa, Babbel and Lucas
Very true, their challenge was finished when they dropped all those points at home to the likes of Fulham, West Ham, Stoke, Everton and Hull
Apparently there are more red cards handed out over the years at Liverpool vs Everton fixtures than any other league games.
Benitez's Liverpool is based on being difficult to beat and trying to sneak a win. Terrible team to watch as a neutral. Although it sticks in the throat, I'd sooner watch Man U any day.
Forget about the performance or entertainment. It's only the result that matters.
Well to be fair they do have different targets at the start of the season and Liverpool are 14 points ahead of them in the league. If Everton were being judged by Liverpool's standards they would be having an absolutely brutal season altogether. When u do go through the teams though there doesn't seem to an awful lot in it man for man. I suppose it's mainly Gerrard and Torres that set Liverpool apart alright.
maybe "supposed to be far superior to" would have been a better choice of words.

Harmless ?? It was late it stopped Lesscott going on a nice break and he had a hand full of other fouls leading up to it ive seen player walk for less. Definetly deserved a yellow.

He isnt at a team aiming to win the league though.
100% correct. Its Benitezs negativity that has ended Liverpools title challenge
