What a gash weekend. I couldn't find a ticket anywhere but I had seen an ad on a selling page from a guy selling two tickets. So I went and met with him in F***ing Chester on Saturday morning (he is from Bangor) and paid him £300 - he was selling them for £140 each and then cheekily asked me to pay him a further £20 to cover his train costs to and from Bangor. Before I paid him I asked him to show me his e-mail correspondence from the club and saw that he paid £43 each for those tickets. Felt like slapping the little knobhead. It boils my blood that these so called reds get hold of tickets and then act as a tout F***ing over other genuine reds. I was running out of time so it got to the point where I'd have paid anything to get a ticket but I'm still annoyed with that little bellend - if you're on here lad then F**k you. I clocked your name and address on the e-mails so I might still report you to the club
ha ha ...
But anyway that's a different story, back to the football...
An awful performance. I can accept defeat with no problems providing we give 100% on the pitch. That's all we can ask. If we lose because the other team have outplayed us then fair enough, if we lose because of a bad refereeing decision then as annoying as it is I can accept it because it happens from time to time. We might also have games where we just cant put the ball in the back of the net no matter what. But I just can't accept defeat when I'm watching 11 players just strolling around the pitch not giving the slightest F**k.
I can't think of one player yesterday who played well or put in any effort for us. That says it all. We badly missed Lucas, Sakho, Ibe and Sturridge but our starting 11 was more than good enough to beat Aston F***ing Villa yesterday. Villa were well organised and hungry - they wanted to F***ing win, and even at 2-1 they were still coming at us - but at the end of the day we have better footballers than them. If we matched their desire to win then we would have won that game no problems. It was a semi final at Wembley for fucks sake I just can't get my head around how little our lads seemed to care. There is absolutely no excuse for it. Villa out ran us, won every challenge, every 50-50, every 1 on 1 battle - things you get taught at school boy level. It just wasn't F***ing good enough.
Mignolet - Made one or two decent saves. Haven't seen the replays but thought he could have perhaps done better for the goals. But not criticising him, the 10 players he had in front of him were absolutely sh*te.
Lovren - Awful. He is just a donkey. Not good enough for LFC. Whoever thought he was worth paying 20m for should not be involved in football. The game was already gone and we were desperate but that 25 yard strike in injury time from him just summed up what a retard he actually is.
Skrtel - He seems to be a favourite amongst many reds but I've never seen anything in him and yesterday was just another poor performance from him IMO. Skrtel is good enough when he has Sakho next to him. Put Lovren next to him and he's almost as bad as him.
Can - Not his best game by any means but probably slightly better than anybody else in our team yesterday
Moreno - Said it countless times on here, his energy and enthusiasm shadows how average he really is. His positioning is all over the place defensively and when he attacks even though he finds himself in some good positions sometimes his final ball is F***ing awful. Giving the lad some credit though, one or two crunch tackles from him yesterday and if it wasn't for his last ditch slide tackle villa would have been 3-1 up.
Markovic - Shithouse. The lad clearly has ability. An intelligent footballer who is gifted. He has potential to be a top player but he will never be one if he keeps bottling it. He has no confidence at all. Take a F***ing man on will you and have a shot once and a while, F***ing roll your sleeves up and get involved instead of standing on the touchline asking Brendan to hold your hand you little girl. F***ing man up.
Allen - worst player on the pitch. offers F**k all. cant defend, cant attack. bored of saying it.
Gerrard - second worst player on the pitch. Should never have started. When was his last start for us? He only played yesterday for sentimental reasons potentially being his last appearance at Wembley for Liverpool which proved to be the case. He was miles off the pace yesterday it was like having a pensioner out there. Brendan is in a no win situation though because had he benched steven and we lost anyway he would have got so much stick for it. Should never have started though.
Henderson - when steven was his age he was capable of grabbing the game by the scruff of the neck no matter what and basically winning games on his own for us. I know its unfair to compare the two, steven is the best midfielder ive ever seen, but Jordan is going to captain us next season but he doesn't step up and be counted enough. he was quiet yesterday and didn't get involved.
Coutinho - Isolated. Can't do everything on his own. Not his best game. Should have worked harder.
Sterling - Barely remember him touching the ball. You want £150k a week do you lad yeah? do ya? hahhahaahah jog on.
Balotelli - Seriously, I thought he was our best player yesterday.
Lambert - Our second best player.
Johnson - F**k off.
