Told ya, lads.
Liverpool 2014/15 | WARNING: Contains strong amounts of Scouse nonsense
- Thread starter Wumminator
- Start date
One could argue it is the coaching that's the problem not necessarily the centre backs.
Yeah, we've been terrible in every area of the pitch so far this season (Spurs game aside). Some serious questions need to be answered, and Rodgers can get fecked if he refuses to accept responsibility for our defensive problems again.
It genuinely looks like our back 4 go into games defending on instinct, there's no organisation at all.
Brilliant performance from your not at all average defenders.
Ha, you just beat me to it. Said that before too, there's no evidence of any training ground work on defence, everyone does there own thing instead of defending as a unit. So depressing.
@PickledRed and @Dumbstar will be along soon enough to deliver their defense, I doubt.
They genuinely look shite, and it's bloody enjoyable.
I never thought it would it go tits up so quickly.
They look a bit toothless in attack.
They've increased their squad depth but they still can't really afford any injuries.
Hahahahahaha!!!! And to think the Scousers were criticising our defence at the start of the season. 8 goals conceded in 5 games, very impressive defence that. Can't wait until Utd play Liverpool this season, our attack will murder that defence. Liverpool aren't anything special without Suarez, outside of Sterling they're a very average team.
Blimey. I don't think it's safe to say anything about United. Best thing today is our rivals have dropped points. We have to do our part. Liverpool won't play that badly all season (unfortunately).
Probably get the usual curse where they play like world beaters against us.
I hope that Liverpool fans from last year stay on the forum.
Lallana's impact is being overstated by Sky.
One pass to Moreno aside he barely did anything effective. Pretty player on the ball, but I just don't think he's a game changer for a team like Liverpool.

So revising the league win are we Barn ?
Looking fairly clear after 4-5 windows that Rodge cant sort a defense out, he's not he Messiah he's a very naughty boy.
Absolute fecking shite mate.
For all of the stick our defenders get, this lot are considerably worse.
They'll do well to finish in the top four again.
Signed good players, but not ones which would take them to the next step. Rodgers still hasn't addressed defensive frailties.

Don't be a twat. I've been on here when we finished 8th, lost the league title, etc. I'm hardly going to jump ship now. I expect things will pick up soon anyway, and we'll still finish ahead of you.
When is the next international break?
Good managers find a way around injuries right bro..............lolz
They won this game last year so maybe this is the result that makes the change this time around and finally delivers the title. Etc etc Champions elect 2014-2015 etc etc
If you took the best players of Southampton, and the best players of Liverpool, and sent them elsewhere, then mixed what is left, would West Ham shit all over them?
Yes. It appears they would.
Yes. It appears they would.
I look at their teamsheet and see a lot of average. I look on their bench. More average.
I think it is a bit of both. I don't particularly rate any of the centrebacks but all defenders can be coached to look better in a system that protects them more. Rodgers is either unwilling or unable to spend as much time as he needs to on his defence and I can't imagine the reduced time they'll have in between matches this season compared to last will help.
Seen nothing from them to worry about.. if we don't get top four ahead of this lot then it will be an ultimate disaster.
Steven Gerrard game in numbers: 82% pass accuracy 0 through balls 0 shots 0/5 crosses completed 0 tackles won. #LFC
I think we were talking about it after the Villa game but there has probably been limited time to work on it since.
Any defence we offer will be better than what Skrtel, Lovren and Sakho can at the moment. Game was over after 10 minutes, just watched the rest of the game to see if Lallana and Lambert would look any better. Lallana is definitely getting here, Lambert is done. Much like a 50 year old Gerrard.
He was waiting for his present at the end. Didn't come though.
He was truly, truly woeful. Borini was shockingly poor and Gerrard made Borini look like a footballer.
Said it before, they've been looking incredibly average this season. Despite replacing their entire defence, it's still a shambles.
Writing is on the wall. We've been trying to tell the scousers here all summer.
Last year was a freak and they still couldn't win it.

They have done a "Spurs".
That is pathetic
We're going to finish one place lower than we did last season?
Has Gerrard played 3*90 min since the Villa game?
