Swansea (H)

I haven't said it because I thought I must be wrong with some of the results and performances we've been having, but I've felt ever since Sturridge came back in the side that we've basically been unbalanced. Villa, West Brom, Fulham, and today - we've looked so vulnerable in all of them. And where the performances have been great it's largely been very ruthless counter-attacking football, not so much actually controlling the game.

I dunno, it feels like we've got one too many attackers on the pitch and one too few defensive players. Or it could just be as simple as Gerrard being shit at DM and us needing Lucas back.
 
There have been games where we are 1-0 down in the past, which I've been more confident of winning that this one. Swansea just need to carry on and they will score another couple of goals.
 
A good test of Rodgers' true managerial talents today. He has to get us playing at the tempo we manage when we are at our best and he has to stop us doing this stupid "death by football" too near our own goal. Unfortunately, I think that latter is all his fault anyway so I'm not very optimistic about that one.
 
We're playing this with the wrong tempo, seemingly with a "come get us, you're tired after the midweek" attitude and totally slacking in midfield. And that then creates the holes which the defenders can't plug. The defenders, themselves have been downright awful.

Zombie football we're watching today. Let's hope Spurs lose today because it's really up in the air who will win this game even with our lead. Rodgers better light some firecrackers in some arses in that dressing room.
 
Dunno what's been said in the last few pages, but bar one great block towards the end Agger has been shocking, simple as, I've counted about 7 individual errors. Skrtel and Gerrard have been guilty of mistakes too, but Agger is currently the weak point at the back.

I'd be tempted to introduce Allen for Coutinho soon too.
Your post is shocking.

7 individual errors? You on crack?

The big bald one is Skrtel? You know that right?
 
I wonder if they've actually scared themselves a bit by the intensity they managed in the first half v Arsenal a couple of weeks ago. Since then I've heard a couple of players say 'maybe we can't keep that up but we need to try' and they've sounded a bit like players contemplating pre-season training. They need to bite the bullet and play much, much harder.
 
We are so laughably open, even at 2-0 i was concerned.

Swansea could quite easily of had a couple more there, fuck me though what an attacking force we are, were not even at our best up front and we still score 3 in a half.

No, but I'm not a biased fanboy so maybe I can actually call something as an error when it is; 5 lost runners (including Bony for goal), 1 terrible header, 1 shit attempt at a back pass. This is not the Agger of 3-4 years ago, take the Danish tinted specs off.
 
Andy Gray and co. slating Shelvey for not celebrating.

I agree. He doesn't play for us, he plays for Swansea and needs to show Swansea fans that he's delighted he scored. It's one of the things I hate most about modern football.
 
And so the media campaign to get us penalised for Skittle's mad holding finally pays off, but it's outrageous he's carried on doing it. It should have been stopped dead a while ago in training.
 
Don't care.
You only post when Agger is playing.
Really hope Agger leaves in the summer so idiot fans like you can fuck back to where you came from before he signed.
You are proving my point indefinitely every time you post.

Good lad.
