Liverpool vs Blackburn: EPL 24 Oct '10: KO 15:00

Today's team is apparently: Reina; Carragher, Skrtel, Kyrgiakos, Aurelio; Maxi, Meireles, Lucas, Cole; Gerrard, Torres

Doesn't really matter what team is put out the tactics are still wrong to get a win. 

Unless the players decide otherwise and play their proper game ie Rafa's game but they're not going to do that as they are Roy's puppets.

Can Roy please stop playing Carra at right back?

Carra is fine at RB. but the tactics need to change. get the defence up the field at least 10 yards. !

It's sad that this game has been billed as a relegation battle six pointer but we will beat Sam and his shower of sh*te today.

I cant ever remember talking about a 6 point relegation game for LFC. And Ive been supporting the reds since the 70's !

Souness probably was the worst period, but we were never in the bottom 3 (I think)

Nothing much from the right side then with both Carra and Maxi running faster than a turtle. Fat asshole Sam will target Torres, so expect the Blackburn players taking turns to rough him up early in the game.

I don't think i could take it if we get beat by jabba's shower this afternoon.I certainly wouldn't be able to watch the fat waster in the post match interview on MOTD.Never in all the years i have been watching Liverpool have i been more worried about a game against Blackburn even in there glory days.Hope the lad's do us proud today.
   We really need a lift and if we get one today i can see us going on a good run if we dont get anything decent out of today i am going to be getting really worried.
  Come on red men.

Nah, his legs can't handle playing right-back, plus I thought he hated playing there!

I just hope we don't get anymore of the ultra negative football we are fast becoming 'famous' for.
I just might have used up all my Christmas wishes for the next decade up there...
Silly me! Silly, silly me!

play pacheo instead of babel. think they will play defensive and dirty. if we cant string 5 passes together we are facing another draw

Hope Roy will start to use his head, if Blackburn is going to play rough there's more reason for us to get into their box at every given opportunity, then we can perhaps get some freekicks, a penalty or one or two of their players sent off. If Roy plays defensively I'm afraid this is going to be his last game.

If true very surprising to see his two star signings missing out.

Just on the train to limy. Got a feeling 3 v 0. Joe cole to get us up and running.

TBH. I would play kelly there or go for a 3-5-2. but roy is the man unfortunately. I do think Carra is ok. Has not got the legs as you say. but he wont let us down.

I hope it is true. Weve missed Fabio & poulsen is crap. .

Under 3 hours till KO and I'm not even excited. I miss the days I had nerves going into a match, just feels like a 0-0 draw written all over it but I'm still gonna stay up and watch till 3 am in the morning over here.

If though I see F***ing Roy rub his chin, scratch his face, do the thinking pose one more F***ing time, I might smash my tv and go to bed early.

Going to be quite a scene, where we see both Managers standing on the touchline, the crowd yelling "you don't know what you're doing" and both of them turning around saying, Who me? 



Come on you Redmen, wake the F**k up and let's tear these fuckers a new one. Make some sort of statement that you still care.

I hope it is true. Weve missed Fabio & poulsen is crap. .

Don't you think crap is a bit of an understatement?

I honestly don't know how I want this to pan out. I want us to win with a very poor performance.

We need to get stuck into these from the onset,don't give them time to launch their long ball forward. Time to give up on players like Maxi & Babel who bring nothing to the team and play pacheco / Shelvey instead. kelly to start at RB, because Carra has become a liability in that position. A win is a must because otherwise we are marooned in the bottom 3, with a 2/3 point gap between us and Fulham

I hope it is true. Weve missed Fabio & poulsen is crap. .

Fabio is a class act and easily the best full back at the club on his day.

Souness probably was the worst period, but we were never in the bottom 3 (I think)

Season 84/85 we were 20th at this point of the season, after losing to a Sharp goal in the Mersey derby, Mind you we had a good manager then in Joe fagan, plus Dalglish and Rush and finished the season on 77pts, never going to happen this time though

I hope it is true. Weve missed Fabio & poulsen is crap. .

You have a logical and grammatical error there.

Fabio is boss when fit.

Gonna be my first home game tomorrow since those bellends were fu**ed off from the board room. I can't put into words how much I'm going to enjoy watching Roys tactics at home tomorrow. Haven't been able to see them up close apart from brum away. 

I can't believe I'm heading into Anfield feeling so pessimistic. Definitely feels like the Souness days.

Unlucky mate, enjoy anyway.

Said the same thing to my dad last night, when he asked whose turn it was!!

Unless Maxi has started tracking back in training I fear Carra could be targeted in this game. Why not Kelly? Oh that's right Roy has no value in youth unless it's to use it as an excuse for knock out competitions. I hope that team is wrong

What exactly is wrong with Johnson at present?  Is he just upset that people are taking the piss out of his haircut (or lack off).
