the way I see it

[rowlho]

watched the pompey game as well as others on telly

 

I have been watching football since 1967 ( my first game was everton v chelsea in 1967)

 

I have seen liverpool loads of times live and on telly all my life they have been a footballing side full of passion desire and an amazing will to win. They had quality players throughout the team, not relying on 1 0r 2 players, the club didnt court the media and the football always did the talking. They were ruthless when someone was not good enough they went and were often replaced by someobe who was already in the reserves.

 

today there was little evidence of any of this and 3 key players highlighted the problems

1 Mascherano who got sent off 2nd time this season with a bad tacklethat level of discipline is unacceptable

2 Carragher played well today but he is on the downward slope is the replacement in the reserves waiting? Doesnt look like it

3 Gerrad showed his class at times but not sure his heart is in it, its got tough and he is not leading the way he should be

 

The other key player Torres showeed great ability but looked a bit down to me needs support on and off the pitch

 

Just my take on things yes I am one of those awful bitter blue s****s Feel free to slaughter me

 

Hopefully see you in Hamburg for the mickey mouse europa cup final
