For the first time ever I was actually quite sad sitting in Anfield yesterday. It was shocking to get a huge reality check from Chelsea in how big a step back we have taken this season. It was sad seeing our team just give up. It was sad seeing our captain make basic mistakes and be completely outplayed for the entire game. It was sad to see the lack of depth in our squad. It was sad to see the body language of absolutley everyone connected to the club and it was sad listening to their fans take the piss out of us all game. And what was our comeback to their fans. Taking the piss out of their history. Ironic really when it is the future of our great club that we should be concerning ourselves with.
12 months ago I was bouncing in my seat watching us destroy Spurs in the last game of the season. The lap of honour from the players was just as much the fans thanking them as the players thanking the fans. Players and fans alike couldn't wait for the new season.
This season it even looked like the lap of 'honour' was a half arsed attempt. Absolutely every player just wanted to get off the pitch.
Based on yesterdays peformance we have a huge re-building job to do as we were camped in our half for the entire 2nd half and half of our squad just are not good enough or don't want to be there.
Whether it's Rafa, the players or the owners, there is one thing that we desperately need at Anfiled next season and that is CHANGE!
And that change had better not be an increase in the season ticket prices after paying to watch that all season!
