Chelsea 1-1 Liverpool: In game and Post Match Relief?

Enrique was a F***ing beast today as well. His physical power is so strong its unreal. The way he runs with the ball holding men off is something to watch. Maybe we can push him further forward in the future? I liked the look of him and Johnson on the same side.

Eh?  Don't remember many saying we'd lost at half time.  I was thinking we might get battered if the gaffer didn't change things second half because we were rotten first half.

He did and we improved massively and got a deserved point.  Could have been three in the end.

Well played lads!

Someone was going on about us losing at half time and asking "what the excuses will be"

Big change second half and Suso really had an impact along with the change in formation.

Enrique was also excellent second half after a poor showing in the first and I personally would have taken him off but credit to the manager and player.

Suarez yet again on the score sheet and scary to think where we'd be without him.

All in all a good point and now let's get some wins in games in the next run of games.

The moment we put enough bodies inside their box, we became a real threat. We had four when we scored, if I'm not mistaken and we could have more. Something refreshing for a change.

We have a nice run of "winnable" games ahead of us

That is where the trouble starts.

I feel the criticism of Brad's distribution whilst fair, detracts from an otherwise commanding performance. He kept us in the game on more than one occassion as I remember.

Trust Howard Webb to intercept the ball for Chelsea which lead to them scoring

Most folk are going for Enrique, but I thought Gerrard had a great game as well.

 

He has stepped in for Pepe very well - he still makes me nervous but deserves a lot of credit.

Good 2nd half and we deserved the point. Where would we be without Suarez , if he gets injured we are totally stuffed.
If our owners  are not prepared to put a decent ammount of money into the kitty for transfers in January , then I think they need to question themselves about how committed they are to Liverpool Football Club.

That is where the trouble starts.

What expectation? Or teams we should beat? I think the latter... was a problem last season and I think we will beat the majority of our next 10 matches...

Would have taken that before the game.

Think a good final 20 minutes will shadow over a very poor first 70 though.

The more game time Brad has, he's only going to get better. Didn't get too many wron s but made some good saves instead, but has to distrubute the ball better and not taking it too casual.

No criticism for Jones from me.

He was excellent and kept us in it at times like he's done a few games recently.

I think we will beat the majority of our next 10 matches...

I really hope so. Also, want the owners to buy some players and show some f**kin ambition in Jan.

We have a nice run of "winnable" games ahead of us and would expect that come January we are in a much better position than we are now...

Agreed, Results in December make or break the season looking at the fixtures, then we all know what has to happen Jan . . . .

50 days to go until January 1st

How many games have we got in that time?

Agreed. I can't remember the last time we gave the ball away so much or so cheaply as we did today. As for Brad Jones, he's a decent shot stopper but neither his judgement nor his ability to come out of goal under pressure fill me with any confidence. Sooner Pepe is back the better.

Where would we be without Suarez

Bottom of the table with 2 points is where we'd be without his goals this season. Frightening.

Six in the league and I think two in Europa?

You always get some of that on here though.  Most of the time it's just passion and disappointment, same as posters saying someone's sh*te when they had a poor first half, but then plays an important part in the second half, like Carra for example, had a shocker in the first but got an outstanding assist (made up for him!) and young Andre had a shocker as well, but his movement forward started the whole goal movement off for us.

That's watching a game and posting about it I guess.  Emotions run riot and what you post, often in anger at the time, can't be taken back.

Can't hang anyone for that.  Berate them at the time if it annoys you, but not after the end result.

Doesn't matter where we would be without Suarez because guess what - we do have Suarez.

You have got to be f**king messing! Have you had a look at your posts today?

Show me.

"When you've made gravy under gunfire you can do anything." 

Doesn't matter where we would be without Suarez because guess what - we do have Suarez.

It would matter if he was injured and that's what people are meaning.

Relying on one player is ok if that player plays every game. If he is out then problems arise.

It just shows a lack of support for the team

It's giving up and the looking for blame - its pathetic really.

We all call players sh*t or say they are playing sh*t and be critical etc but we still get behind the players and urge them to improve etc.

This won't go down well but it seems some just wait for us to lose so that the blame game can start all over again.

Yeah I know - positive thinking though - not going to think about that and going to get through to Jan with him ripping up the prem.
