Last straw for me Im afraid

[Igors Uncle Dave]

Rafa, thanks for that and close the door on the way out please.

 

And another woeful performance from Ngog. He can go with him, perhas we can get a couple of mil for sicknote too?

[Stevie H]

torres wasn't playing well but you still leave him on and give him some help up there. can't really defend that kind of management in a must-win match.

when he came on we started to create chances, he probably should have scored but he still did 10 times better than torres

Exactly how I see it. N'Gog did pretty well too to be fair, but he should've taken the chances. Otherwise what's the point?

 

Feel worse about Rafa with every passing game myself...

[Epic Swindle]

This can't go on. We all understand the financial limitations but a change and fresh approach is needed.

[Gomez]

You sound like the idiot co-commentator on Faux-Sport who actually said it was a coincidence that Liverpool created a lot more chances after Torres went off.

 

Really, if you can't see why Torres was taken off, and how we improved after he did, you should keep quiet so you don't look like an idiot.

we still created 4-5 clear cut chances after torres was subbed

Torres and N'Gog could have both been on the pitch at the same time. Wild concept, I know, but it's possible.

[Falconhoof]

Plenty wrong with the team selection and subs but i'm bored of going over it all.

We need a change.

[LFCNeil90]

He has to go after we drew at a team that has held all the other big teams at home?

 

get a f***ing grip.

 

The torres sub was the right thing to do. He was lethargic and not getting up to much and as soon as N'gog came on we were creating chances and should have won comfortably.

[Falconhoof]

We improved because of Babel, not Ngog.

[Berger]

Rafa rush players back just about they barely can play a game.

When the player is fit, he took him off because of fitness and a mind on the next game.

Bizarre. Fourth is gone.

would we have created as many chances? no one can say for certain i guess

[drdooom]

We should have, but we didn't, ergo it didn't work.

there were a few times when torres lost the ball and he din't even bother chasing back

[McBain]

Was already there. But games like today just confirm it

[Dan]

Has torres not done his knee? R5 said he was injured?

[Nebraska Red]

what a load of tosh!!

 

N'Gog is a kid who has been thrown in because we have nowt else.

 

Torres was getting nothing today, he was marked out by their defenders and got little from his team mates.

 

Torres goes off, they relax and we create chance after chance. It wasn't just N'Gog, but if he is your whipping boy for today , so be it.

exactly. our first s***ty performance of the season and people call for him to go. unbelieveable

[Gomez]

You are going to be made up with O'Neill then, he'll make tactical decisions more on your level.

What????????

[Berger]

why didnt Babel start? He has to rest the next game.

Why not starting the same lineup with Sunderland?

so put runners on, people to run channels, stretch the defence a bit? no, nah you're right, we've been doing just fine away from home playing these tactics

 

4 goals in 10 away games

[Bailo]

Not sure why we get this every time, he's gone anyway in the summer, just enjoy the last few times we have a world class manager at the helm. Next season it'll be MON, Hughes or Curbishley.
