Napoli 0-0 Liverpool: In-game and Post Match Disappointment

Kelly, Spearing, Shelvey and hopefully Eccleston for twenty minutes...


Do us proud.


Oh and the rest... Just like seeing a few youngsters in there.


Note to Roy...



If it goes wrong blame yourself and your team selection, not the youngsters in the team that might have been better served playing beside Meireles, Gerrard and Torres

Erm, why's Joe Cole on the bench?

We have we got three defensive central midfielders in the team?

Because Roy's a F***ing muppet and I hope he's gone by tomorrow.

Worrying line-up. Can't see where any goals are going to come from.

I don't understand where people are getting the 3 defensive mids from?

Shelvey is not a defensive midfielder.

No excuse. So did Eccelstone.

Didn't say it was an excuse mate just answering the question.

You know Roy he makes his own rules.

Shelvey is not a defensive midfielder.

Models himself on Steven Gerrard... a bald Steven Gerrard obviously

Hodgson must be the must negative coach in Europe, come next Monday I'm praying he is gone.

Right on mate.

I don't like seeing him play off of N'gog if that's what he's asked to do.

He's a true central midfielder. Picks a pass, picks his runs, can tackle and dictate a game.

That clown Poulsen is back in, looking at the team can't see us getting anything here.

I agree 100%.  I don't see a goal on the field for us.  Maybe Babel can muster up something.  Then he'd probably get yanked at half time.

Let's hope to keep a clean sheet.

Any previous where a manager got subbed at half time... No? Shame

Hamsun is a beast, hopefully Poulsen and Spearing can keep him under wraps (not counting on it).

Where in the world is Dani?!

The mere shun to dani is insulting not only to him but to the fans. Pacheco>>>>>>Poulsen 100 times out of ten.

So were not playing

            Lucas       Meireles

Pacheco        Gerrard          Cole

                   Torres



Ah sure it's not like that a formidable attacking line up.

I thought Pacheco was with the team?

Not even on the bench?

He played for th ereserves the other night so that eliminated him nice one Roy.

Great to see Shelvey in and of course Glen Johnson x100 Martin Kelly.

Reina starts.  So the talk of him being dropped for questioning Roy's tactics was just a malicious rumour?  That does not help the situation.

I hope Kelly, Spearing and Shelvey play well.

I just can't get excited though... well, at least I'll only be able to watch the first half

Big test tonight for spearing,Kelly, and Shelvey, let's not judge them too much.

Why wont he take Dani ! what the f**k is wrong with him

My thoughts exactly!

I'm expecting to get slaughtered here, totally crazy dropping youngsters into a game like this but it's a sink or swim scenario i guess.

With the pressure Hodgson is under suprised he has played such a weak team. This team looks like it is a damage limitation.

 If we lose this 3-0 nil which could happen, if he is not sacked then I'm going to F***ing cry.

But the problem is if Hodgson is sacked after this game then the new guy will have very little time to prepare for the blackburn game,won't he?

So..it's not like roy's gonna do anything anyway !!

Who cares usually when a new manager comes in teams excel for a couple of weeks suprisingly this didn't happen with Hodgson. There didn't seem to be any feel good factor here.

Who cares how much time the new guy gets to prepare? As long as Roy is out, that alone should pump up the squad. 

So let me guess if we lose this these lads aren't good enough for Liverpool? That should be expected from Roy.
