Skrtel struggled against Utd’s pace today
GK/Defence
Simon Mignolet – A shaky start and did little to calm the nerves of a team that began the game looking scared. Quite what he was doing with that early throw, we’ll never find out. Also, as we’ve said in the past, Mignolet is a solid goalie and has improved but he’ll never be a game-changer/saver in the way his opposite number can be. Rating – 5
Dejan Lovren – A better display than we saw against West Ham but the fact is, we still conceded 3 goals to the worst United team in memory so few will return with much in the way of credit. Rating – 6
Martin Skrtel – The worst we’ve seen from Skrtel in a while. He will deal with lumbering oafs like Fellaini all day but a bit of pace is usually enough to get past him. Not even we, who are big supporters of Skrtel, could take anything positive from his showing today. Rating – 4.5
Nathaniel Clyne – Solid but far from spectacular. Many believe Liverpool trumped Man Utd to Clyne, with the latter opting for Darmian. On today’s display, it’s hard to see who got the better deal. Rating – 5
Joe Gomez – Not as bad as last time but his decision to go tackle in the box demonstrates his lack of experience. If Brendan had listened to us he would have been saved another knock to his confidence at Old Trafford. Rating – 4.5

Go back to school mate
The LFC management should stop pretending and recruit a first class manager because Br is bereft of ideas.
BR must go. We need a better manager. Since BR’s started with LFC he had a new team every season and that’s not how you build a winning team you don’t sell our best players and replace them with average and that’s what we are now average we are on the same level as Villa or Wbrom. BR must just go he had enough time to prove that he does not know what he’s doing.
Rodgers should of been sacked in the summer and everybody knows it . He has spent close to 300 million in 3 years and we are now at a point where we are going to our biggest rivals playing for a draw , its like watching Roy hodgsons team all over again , what amazes me more is the owners can’t see it . If there is not a change pretty dam quick then this season will be over before we see November.
Please take your sorry rear end out of Liverpool Rodgers you gormless passionless halfwit
I am blaming lfc fans for the misery we are all suffering now. Can’t there be a any visible protest to force the sack of our visibly inept amateur manager since it is now clear that fsg has no real passion for the progress of lfc. If it were at lfc, moyes would still be in-charge at man u now taking them down further. But,as it were, united fans protested vehemently to force moyes out. Today,they are better for it. Both fsg & br can’t take lfc foward but, first, rodgers out.
He IS on his way out
This is an Open Message for John Henry.
Dear Mr. Henry,
I hope this message finds you well. It had been a few years now since you took over from that 2 halfwits countrymen of yours and to be fair you and FSG had taken all efforts to make our club right again. This we Fans would be very grateful. However despite appointing 2 managers and hundreds of millions of pounds spent, we are no where near where a club of our proud heritage should be, which is the top and the reason is actually very clear for all to see. Time and again you and your senior management at FSG had been duped by this man Mr. Rodgers into believing he is a genius of a manager in the making and worse given nearly 300 mill pounds during his time here with nothing of note achieved.
If you had taken the time to attend games here the latest being our comprehensible defeat to MU you would know what we mean. Now in sports losing is part and parcel of the game, that we can accept. Over the years we won and lost some. But last weeks game was a totally insipid display from the players and the manager, a continuation from the West Ham game. There was no character no fight from the players. Oh and where was the famed tactical genius of BR when needed most? You see we the fans were not surprised by this. Right up from the first game, actually consistent from last season, we were very Lucky to get those seven points. Well our luck has to run out at some point. Is this what you had expected when you hired BR, give him a few hundred million pounds and it all boils down to luck for us to win games ? Oh he might blame injuries to key players but there was a reason you gave him so much money in the first place, aren’t they ?
It was said that BR nearly won us the title 2 seasons ago. Well it was plain wrong. Despite having the attacking prowess of Suarez, Sterling & Sturridge, defensively we were so weak and at times BR’s strategy was simply baffling. Well Mr. Henry, he LOST us the title. Today again, despite spending hundreds of millions of pounds, we STILL have a shaky defense. The troubling fact is, your man BR rather play his blue eye boy “car crash defender”Lovren to pander to his own ego than playing Sakho or Illori to stabilize the defense. Those games that we lost, all were due to individual errors by the defense. See how your guy BR place more importance to his own ego and profile than the good of LFC ?
Other than poor player buying, selection and games tactics BR, had totally destroyed the identity of LFC. Ask the fans, Mr. Henry, these days what kind of football do LFC represents ? See what i mean ?
Mr. Henry it is often said fortune favors the brave. I plead with by showing leadership to admit that it was a grave mistake to hire BR and persisted with him. It’s alright we are all human after all, mistakes can be made. However to persist with this mistake with the hope that suddenly things would turn around magically would be a fallacy. Even if by some stroke of luck, we won the next few games, don’t be fooled. For the sake of our beloved club, BR must be sacked NOW! You must accept the reality that we would not finished top 4 under BR. MU have a better chance of doing that if you stick with BR. You now have a small window of opportunity to sack that conman and have him replace with a true world class coach, one that has won trophies (unlike BR)and an absolute fit with our club, one Mr Klopp. It is not often a window like this open but YOU must be decisive, our future is still salvageable.
Yes i am talking about our future for years to come, not this one season alone. Remember how your follow Americans lost us a few years (we are just about to recover from that) by their irresponsible action ?
Mr. Henry, while you are dithering over BR and at the same time, he is having a whale of a time destroying our team, legacy and most importantly our future, others would catch up and i am afraid there would be a point we might not be able to catch up, forever. Impossible ? Well, do some research and look up what happens to a team call Derby, former European Champions and League Winners ?
Mr. Henry, once again, please, secure our future and your investment, SACK BR NOW !
