The Derby: Match Thread

[Red Mullet]

Watching this makes me miss playing basketball. At least then I could really knock someone. 🙂

Er, watching football makes you want to play basketball? 😵

 

[Modo]

Lucas has saved us twice today.

I miss hitting people, I'm a 6'0 girl and my footwork is not good - my options are limited. 😉

 

[cochyn]

Lucas has saved us twice today.

Doing his job by the sounds if it

 

[FreshRed]

Lucas has saved us twice today.

And that is his job

 

[Leo]

Don't know how we are winning this game but I fucking love it.
Massive improvement needed in the second half though

 

[doctor_mac]

The Baines/Pienaar axis is causing us grief. And how Osman was getting the nod ahead of Barkely I'll never know. He's a cracking player.

 

[Markeh]

whats that guy in the crowd shouting at Suarez? I can't make it out.

 

[Leo]

A town called malice for fuck sake.
Southern blerts

I assume you're tall if you played basketball? If you are and you're a Liverpool fan that's two out of three for my ideal woman.

 

[hamstrung_pigeon]

Strange game. We're playing very shit but leading 2-1, and they're somehow entering the dressing room with eleven men still.

What a brilliant free kick though by Suarez.

Yep Johnson and Henderson are getting the runaround.
Allen needs to track across more.

3/3 mate.

She has a pulse too

Anyone who says Cissokho is a better defender than Flanno needs their head examined by the way. The lad is limited going forward, but he's a proper defender. Mirallas, Coleman and Lukaku have got little change out of him today.

 

[keniget]

Allen has been a passenger. Gerrard not quite up to it though has delivered a few moments of quality. So far our best players have been Suarez and Henderson.

Midfield not good enough? That's not like us!

 

[Buddha]

Fuck me, if you didn't hate that weasel cunt Owen already you would do after that half of "commentating".

What a biased bitter little cunt he is.

He's done alright hasn;t he?

Keep that up second half and he's turned a corner.

2 shots on target.

Both from set pieces.

Execution is why we're winning.

We've scored twice and they've only scored once, Leo 🙂

 

[Hansern]

That horrendous decision by Dowd not to send Mirallas off will probably come back to haunt us in the 2nd half.

Fuck me he's shite

 

[mark1975]

Johnson putting in one of his half asleep performances I apparently exaggerate about.

 

[ClassicGirl14]

LOOK AT THAT!

 

[Leo]

Don't be so facetious Jeffrey

 

[Red Mullet]

Did anyone see the little shove by Lucas on the Everton wall for Suarez goal?

 

[Cerberus]

That fucking tackle was horrendous. Deserves a ban.

 

[Ryan]

Really liking Rodgers tactics. Flood the centre, press the ball carrier, and push them wide. It's giving Barkley no space.
Flanagan has been excellent. Good on the kid.
Can only think Dowd didn't see it properly cos that's a red every day of the week.
Lucas the best player on the pitch for me.
Gerrard can't play 2 games in 4 days. He's 3 yards off the pace.
We'll score at least 1 on the counter attack in the second half.

 

[Leo]

Fuck sake I mean how the fuck can Dowd not see that

Mirallas has totally skinned him twice (thrice if you include the time he cut inside). That said I've give Flanno 7-5 - 8 for his performance today. He's been very very good. Keep it up lad.

It'll end in a win for one of the teams or a draw, yeah? Ryan.

 

[James]

Apparently, Sturridge is furious that he's been left on the bench.
