      I have to admit and say I have been baffled at Kenny's starting eleven or substitution decisions at times over the course of the season.

      Why take out our threat on the left today? Why take out the winger (though was below par) who can put in crosses?

      For how good Suarez can be, he's a poor finisher. He's a class player but he had 11 shots today, that's more than enough to win 2-3 games!

      When Lucas is unavailable, it's players like Spearing that should be deputising him.

      If we are not going to play Carroll regularly we need to think about getting another striker in.

      Simply shooting at the goal is not "creating a scoring opportunity". Liverpool had 30 shots, but created very little clear chances. The forwards had to create chances for themselves, because the service was pretty poor.

      i uderstand everyone's frustration, but i'm sick of repating week in week out "hey, we deserved the 3 points""    "created chances" bla bla bla.. enough! year after year! we need to win something soon, and we have to stop to exagerate our expectations, right now we're not even close of champions league spot, it's been 9 games already and downing, carroll, henderson, adam didn'te made the difference on the pitch, and sometimes we play well sometimes really poor, we need consistency! guarantee that we have enough to solve a problem like today's

      I'm really not sure where we're stanging now, i don't know if we'll be fighting for champions league spot, for europa league spot, for 8th position, there's no consistency whatsoever

      Bloody Norwich, NORWICH!!!!! at Anfield too I can't believe it myself we don't seem to be quite there yet, and there is still a lot of work to be done.  Hell we pushed United harder last weekend and were unlucky to get a draw, seems like today it was more like we were holding off a defeat!

      A few more tweaks and we should be able to put these smaller teams to bed with ease, until then let's get back to the drawing boardx and give young Andy a kick up t'arse!!!!

      Ah well rant over, let's go slaughter humour Stoke on Wednesday  :roll:

      If I hear another person say Norwich are a great ball playing team I'm going to F***ing scream, they launched the ball more times in the second half then I've seen Stoke do. We really still need a partner for Suarez at times he looks like he is on his own there

      Yes, preferably a finisher/poacher.

      Pathetic. Two games we've dropped 4 points at Anfield.

      Can Kenny get Ian Rush to show the lads how to finish in matches?

      we should've started like this


                              Adam Spearing
      Bellamy                                            Downing
                                Suarez
                                      Carroll

      We missed Lucas but should have won big even without him. The problem was finishing and poor game management. I'm still shaking my head at the subs...

      I think Kenny's got a few big decisions to make.

      He has to decide whether he really wants to keep going with Adam once Lucas is back for West Brom next week.

      He has to decide whether Kuyt really can play regularly for us anymore.

      And above all, he has to either put faith in Carroll to be our poacher or buy a new striker in January.

      That's Caroll. But as Benitez said, if you don't know how to teach a team to play with a target man, you'd be better without one. I think that's what happening to us ATM...

      Am I the only one who thought:

      a) we played well tonight apart from spells.
      b) Adam played well for most of the match.
      c) it's not the manager's fault.

      I say we really missed a Lucas today and I may dare to say that we missed one Mr Torres.
