Braga 1-0 Liverpool: In game and Post Match Annoyance

No but I expect us to keep the ball at times and at least look like we might nick an away goal.

Agreed on that, team lacks pace today.

Our midfield has been poor Crouch Lucas included, he is not moving the ball quick enough.

 Kenny has to take Poulsen off and put Raul back in midfield with Cole behind Kuyt because this is clearly not working. I take Spearing and Poulsen off at half time

With such a defensive lineup we're really going to struggle to get any sustained attacking opportunities. They are starting to grow in confidence too

Not as deep as closer to your own goal than the centre midfielders like he was earlier

Midfield are having a shocker, Lucas Poulsen Cole Meireles and Spearing.

I hope Kenny's got someone to break into Poulsens hotel room and rob his passport so he can't come back to England.

Very painful to watch us play. The lads look clueless. And kyrgiakos makes skrtel look like a world beater.

come on lads. Get into these. ! we are letting them play too much.

this is sh*t

Look at the movement though. Braga have parked in our half when they have the ball. We have our defence AND our midfield in our own half with the ball.

Lucas, Glen and Dirk the only ones who are passing and moving.

Poulson off, Carroll on

Lucky not to be off, Poulsen. Raised elbow.

Poulsen is like Lucas a couple of years ago only worse.Just not atall convinced by Cole in any shape or form.

Poulsen and Spearing off. Carroll and Pacheco on.

                Raul                  Lucas
 
     Kuyt                Pacheco           Cole

                             Carroll         

piss poor 1st half

Kuyt is a loan striker ye? Keeps droppin so far and given ball away therefore we never hold the ball up... Poulsen and Kuyt off... Pacheco and Caroll on and we may threaten goal....

Piss poor half for all....

Carra stop hoofin the ball u tit... Some1 has to give him his success rate stat some time to get him to stop....

F***ing sh*te performance.

Been totally pissed off with Johnson's positioning. He's been in positions that are of no benefit to the team. Improve it Glen or else.

Lucas is not playing well that is fairly obvious Crouch clear to see he has given away 4 or 5 needless free kicks as well.

Poulsen and Lucas give us absolute zero attacking intent in midfield but then I've never seen Poulsen and Lucas play well together anyway.

No drive at all in the midfield. Have to be honest here think Kenny got his team wrong tonight. Shocking. I don't rate Spearing at all, I think he is lost on the right. We need Maxi on as well

You do know Frank Johnson is playing left back do you

F***ing sh*t

It's performances like this which make me question the value getting into the champions league; we are so poor that there is no way we would get through to the knock-out phase of the champions league. Maybe another year of rebuilding whilst playing in the europa would be better for us in the longterm?

And also Poulsen and Lucas together in midfield has to be the most comical useless double act since the Chuckle Brothers.

Why this always happening to us after playing to the big teams like the scums ?!!!!!
