Gerrard and Skrtel are both a yellow away from suspension. Hope they both pick them up. I love Gerrard and think he still has a big role to play for us, but it will do us no good to have him start four games in 10 days (including the Arsenal game).
Liverpool 2014/15 | WARNING: Contains strong amounts of Scouse nonsense
- Thread starter Wumminator
- Start date
They looked a bit better tonight. Granted, was against a Championship side, although they played some decent stuff. Still look weak at the back though.
Good win. Good performances from Lallana, Markovic, Sterling and Coutinho. Henderson, Gerrard, Lucas, Sakho, Can and Toure were all decent too. Jones was bad and I don't think Lovren was great either.
'Put Suarez in this Bournemouth team and take Sterling(Had to use Sterling as both your keepers are shite) out of this Liverpool, we are talking about small margins'
To be fair, there's only 9 league places between the two, Bournemouth would have destroyed them with Suarez, Sterling or not.
Poor performance. If Bournemouth took their early chances it would have been interesting...
Sunday's going to be horrible to sit through. Even though we're on our bi-annual conjugal visits to our bitches it may turn out they have a strap on ready this time.
Battle of the bottlers.
Game on Sunday should be fun, two sides trying to out shit each other no doubt.
I've never seen us lose at Anfield (even when I had a ticket and and to had to give it to a mate cos I couldn't go we won).
For what its worth now's a great time to get your revenge victories out the way. Like Utd last weekend.
This could be like a match between 'The Nobody Inn V The Bung Hole'
Came across this on facebook, just simply comparing the signings of Liverpool and us. 
Lambert - Falcao
Can - Blind
Markovic - Herrera
Lallana -Di Maria
Lovren - Rojo
Moreno - Shaw
Lambert - Falcao
Can - Blind
Markovic - Herrera
Lallana -Di Maria
Lovren - Rojo
Moreno - Shaw
The over-priced Di Maria aside both columns look pretty grim.

I'll be pleased if it's against us - just the sort of game he'd turn it on before dossing the rest of the season
For that Mario picture?! Wow.
Comes into effect immediately, therefore it's this weekend vs Arsenal I believe.
It's absolutely ridiculous.
In fact I don't know why I was surprised. The FA have set the precedent in the past and need to stick by it now. Even if that precedent is ridiculously strict and politically correct to the extreme.
I think I am genuinely offended by this. Black man gets racially abused on pitches for years, has been vocal against racism for years, posts a tweet that was clearly intended to be anti-racist - gets banned by old white men for racism. It's disgusting really. I'd be pissed off if I were him.
Balotelli's ignorance is no excuse.
It's a basic principal.

Just because you're black doesn't mean that nothing you ever do could perpetuate racist attitudes.
Obviously. My point is that the very setup of people who come from a generation of passive enablers of racism and who never experience racism themselves should not be in a position to set themselves up as the moral arbiters on racist conduct against people who are vocally anti-racist and frequently subjected to racism.
It stinks to high heavens of your old imperial "we know what's best for you" mentality. White people pushing through their white people project on behalf of others, damned what these others might want.
You cant have a system that has committees comprised of every possible social injustice waiting for when that particular injustice arrives. Besides the jewish leadership council were quick to make their concern known, so it seems unlikely that a committee of jewish people would be happy to let it fly.
The issue here is now whether it was racially offensive or not, it was. The issue is whether the FA should be getting involved in the off the field lives of players and to what extent.
On the other hand, if he's so anti-racist he wouldn't have been stupid enough to post a blatantly bigoted picture. The first part isn't bad but calling jews money chasers and such is really bigoted. Everyone is up in arms about Whelan and Mackay so I don't see how this is different. Its not like 1 game ban means anything anyways. Is it even likely he would have played? He's been absolute toilet.

6m for the privilege of playing their own striker who's scored 3 goals in 15 games.
Probably cuz that's the best they can get in January anyway.
Hey, he's scored 4, la! 1 in the mighty Europa League. Never mind the fact that he's played 7 more games (making his record 4 in 23) or the fact that two of his four goals were penalties! Belgian Welbeck.
Anyone feel like digging up the posts about him when he was signed?
Liverpool have dissed that report already.
Why is it an issue? A player can think and discuss what he likes in private, the FA have no ability to punish him for that. But if that player makes his views public, the FA should be, and is, able to act accordingly in the same way any employer can.
He's played well in the games and has been Lille's only threat in many of them. I've seen him quite a bit this season, he's a good player.
He's okay, nothing special. He's been especially underwhelming in the league this year, I guess most games you've seen of him were in Europa?
Liverpool forward Raheem Sterling was today announced as the latest recipient of the prestigious European Golden Boy accolade, awarded each year to the young player considered to have performed to the highest level. Raheem's 3 children by the age of 19 left all his peers floundering in his wake.
The 20-year-old was still a teenager until 12 days ago yet experienced a remarkable calendar year of progress that included a Barclays Premier League title race with his club and recognition at the World Cup with his country.
That development has now been rewarded with the Golden Boy honour, an individual prize originally established by Italian newspaper Tuttosport and decided by the selections of leading publications from across the continent.
With all players aged under 21 eligible for nomination, Sterling faced serious competition to scoop the award - a 40-man shortlist was initially revealed, also featuring Liverpool teammate Lazar Markovic and future colleague Divock Origi.
He becomes the first Reds player and only the second Englishman to be named the winner, following Wayne Rooney in 2004, while fellow Anfield forward Mario Balotelli was the budding talent chosen four years ago.
Other notable previous recipients of the Golden Boy trophy include Argentina and Barcelona superstar Lionel Messi, his compatriot Sergio Aguero and last year's champion, France midfielder Paul Pogba.

I wonder if he can follow in Anderson's footsteps.
A point doesn't do much good, but it at least keeps us still in the race for fourth. Useless substitutions from Rodgers, Borini should have played his last game for us, Lallana had his worst game for us by far, but we still played well particularly in the first half. Markovic is starting to look a player, would like to see him in a front three with Sterling.
