So Gomel then..

Do you think it's reasonable to be having digs at the manager and players at this stage of the season?

I very rarely ever do so, but if in my opinion they deserve it, yes. If you don't, that's up to you. I'm tolerant of other views, you clearly are not. Now mind your own business.
 
I'm happy for Downing. Scored against "mighty" Gomel.
Last season he scored against the mighty Oldham and Stoke.
Wow he has really proven himself now.
It might "only" have been Gomel, Modo, but you can't take anything away from Downing as far as that goal is concerned.

It was a great goal. Most defintely, credit where it's due and all that. I only saw the first half and he was one of our worst players.
 
What pissed me off about today is that Borini is playing as a striker. It doesn't bode well for the future at all.
 
I wish you'd clamp down on this 'media' crap. The facts don't back it up and I think most realise that, but still the abuse goes on day after day.

Remember Andy's post last week about 'tags'? You know, he's a 'flip flopper' and you have a 'media is gonna get us' attitude? It's just part and parcel of the site - there's little to get away from it even though it's exaggerated to the nth degree

No one else gets that stuff like I do. It puts me off posting altogether. I could easily create tags for plenty on here but I wouldn't dream of doing so. A few are obsessed with it.

Yes, strikers not named Didier Drogba really do well when they're by themselves for 90 minutes without barely seeing the ball ... He showed great movement, great desire and had one good chance that the keeper made a decent save on. He'll be fine.

Just ignore them mate ... most of us enjoy your posts, and your sense of humor ... Don't be like the Frenchies and walk away - ignore the twats, and enjoy the show.
 
A striker playing as a striker. Brendan has deffo lost it.
Who do you want Dantes? Wilson? Spearing? Flanagan?

not trying to be funny LTW, but are you on prozac? Admittedly I have been too negative recently, but you on the other hand seem too 'cheery'. i'll be a little bit more optmistic if you become a little bit more realistic?

I wanted him to play with three strikers, rather than use our normally shit wingers. I know we're short right now (which is due to Rodgers being a dick I might add), but if he had this in mind then he could have played Morgan for now, and taken Pacheco and Suso along too. As it is, Borini is the striker, and he will get dropped for Suarez. That's the simple plan. I had a feeling it would be when Rodgers first mentioned that he was a very similar type of player to Suarez.

So we're fucked. At least with three strikers on the pitch there's the off chance one of them will get a goal. What Rodgers is going to do is total stupidity.
 
He wont. Borini will start along with Suarez. Rodgers likes his players to swap positions constantly, so you'll see a much more fluid unpredictable attacking 3.

That said, we need at least 1-2 attacking additions. Cole doesnt cut it.

Cheery? Yah, wrong poster. And where exactly am I not being realistic with my assessment of Borini (or Sterling)? What, you want me to say Borini is shit based on a game where he was isolated for 80 odd minutes? Sorry, I watched the game and Borini - based on how poorly we played - did enough things to keep me optimistic.

I know it won't happen, but if we could get Higuain on loan (or sign him somehow), it would be a phenomenal front 3.

This kind of talk was useful a couple months back when everything was still conceptual and we had big ideas. But today's performance should bring you back to reality surely? There's no fluid, or unpredictable attacks, the fairytale bullshit should be over now. We need to be realistic, players who can keep the ball by passing it backwards and sideways. And then as many players as possible who can swing their foot and smash the ball hard towards the goal. Those are the two things we should be looking for.

Sounds like quite a good thread though...
