WTF is wrong with us. Surely it's not all about Suarez. We worked so hard to get this far.
Does he though? or does he make twice as big a deal out of being kicked as anyone else?
Remember about a month ago when we thought Henderson could score close to ten goals this season?
Will he even get to ten shots this year?

This team makes me sad right now. Everything we did so effortlessly last season is now labored, except for shit defending.
I feel bad for some of our players that are now in Suarez's shoes ... too good for our team ... Talk about a team that is imploding in front of our eyes ...
Lots of players get kicked around. Suarez got kicked around.
It's not all about Suarez, but a huge part of it is. In addition to all of his direct contributions, he made everyone else better. Right now we're worse than the sum of our parts.
Yup.
Dunno what to say any more. It's like we were offered a brief glimpse of what happiness feels like in a dream and now we've awoken to depressing reality of life as it is.
Fuck it.
It makes me sad for the few players who still are trying like they did last year ... Let's hope they don't follow the same path Suarez did, or at least our fans don't celebrate when they do.
This is it. I'll see everyone in a few days.
Yeah he's kind of proven to be impervious to everything though...kicks, injuries, etc.
We can't hold Balotelli to that standard.
He needs to vastly improve but comparing him to Suarez is pointless.
it will be a struggle to get out of this group ... and I cannot believe how reliant we are on Studge ... We won games last year without or Suarez, now we cannot even get good shots on goal. Rodgers is facing his biggest test to date - and he's looking like a deer in headlights.
Carragher's face! Lmao
He's not really a player for a 2 man midfield. Especially when he's paired with Gerrard, as he ends up doing all his running.
A few decades.
Markovic and Balotelli are too laboured and lazy in attack, they're the polar opposites of everything that was good about us last year. At least Lambert looks like he's up for a fight when he comes on, those two couldn't fight their way out of a paper bag, one of them is too lightweight and the other too thick.
Neither look like they know what it means to put in a shift.

Agreed. Our midfield isn't up to it.
Agreed, he has to do all the running for two players and doesn't have a chance to be creative because if he moves forward at all Gerrard is hopelessly exposed.
Que ?!?! That is an Opta stat - not my opinion.
Looking at Henderson is being a bit myopic though, he's just about the only thing that's good about that midfield, he's asked to do pretty much everything.
