mycarforum: Liverpool 2014/15 Part 2 : Qtr Century On.... part 40

This is the match Pool need to win. Win pretty or ugly do not matter. manure, spurs both drop points. Beating Soton will squeeze 3rd to 7th closer.�

�

worst case: do not lose the match

GOALLLLLLLL....

What a start !!!

Phil does turn up for BIG games!

Dumb JOE ALLEN! Lucky pen not given!

Edited by Vegas, 23 February 2015 - 12:20 AM.

What a goal - Couti

�

Wat a shot!!

N straight away can n skrtel screws up. Lucky ref nvr give penalty. Stupid allen anyhow tackle.

Congrats on the early goal!

Our center defence is still inviting opponents to come and strike at us, and at will...

�

Wonderful goal by Coutinho.

Time for Pool to slow things down

�

and take the steam out of the game.

�

No communication btwn skrtel n can. Both went for the same ball. Skrtel should jus remain dead centre as he has 2 other CBs on his side.

Why is CAN play LCB instead of Loverns? the defence all at sea... and we have wingers playing as wing backs

Southampton very organised at the rear...and can build up play well from the rear as well.

�

Just wish LaDY LucK smile on us....JA was lucky not to be awarded a card as he did not make contact with the ball.

�

Midfield not controlling and limiting the off-the-ball runs by our opponents....

I think Allen still cannot make it. Plus Henderson now not on good form, center mid like very vulnerable.

Nice to see Sammy Lee

�

Midfield too easy to get past. Wingbacksbneother here nor there. Markovic has been very shaky. Saints going by the flanksbtime n agn. Pool should jus calm down n slo. The game a bit.

Don't understand why now that DS is fit but don't play him. Weren't we eagerly waiting for his return? Somemore put 3 international strikers on bench and play a non striker.

Edited by Extinguisher, 23 February 2015 - 12:32 AM.

Why the heck do they keep passing backwards to mignolet jus for him to anyhow kick upfield.

�

He just came back from injury so cannot play too many games.

�

He just played 3 days ago and we will need him for the Turkey match.

�

Why the heck do they keep passing backwards to mignolet jus for him to anyhow kick upfield.

�

Because Soton put 3 attackers on our back 3

�

to stop them playing out of defence.

�

So by pass the 3 attackers and just kick

�

it upfield.

�

��

DUMB JOE ALLEN!

Wow. This ref die die don wanna award a penalty. That was a clearcut penalty.

i think we need FBs for this match instead of WBs... the defence is not getting lucas protection

at least both teams have a legitimate penalty call not awarded so won't be hard pain...

�

bdw, been some time since i saw we moved into the final third of the field...wayward passes made more difficult by the slippery pitch.

�

Am impressed by Ibe's calmness and ability to ward off bigger opponents such as Wayanma...

we could have given away 4 pens in the 1st half!

Very poor performances all ard. Lovren shouldnt play anymore. Stupid yellow card, daydream n let his man run behind, almost a handball...wat more stupidity is he capable of?

Saints packing the Middle making it hard for couti n sterling To create anything. Ibe once agn the best man for the team.

"What is penalty?" asked the referee. Lol.

so long as everything goes in our favour and we get the 3 points...that is important.�

"What is penalty?" asked the referee. Lol.

�

With the help we are getting from the ref, we die die need to win this game!

�

That said, Coutinho strike is worthy of winning any match

Need to take off sterling or couti. Both look really tired. Time for balo to come in.

GOALLLL....

Stupid sturridge. Already past 1 defender wanna try agn. Dunno where he wanna dribble To.

DS should have passed to RS

�

and we would have won the match 2 - 0.

�

Lucky goal! But i'll take it!!!

2 - 0

�

Frankly, M oreno's introduction added some steel on our left flank and provided the penetration that we lacked in the first half...not sure if it is a tactical ploy to soak and strike...

Time to learn to defend !
Come on, Liverpool !

Dunno how rodgers can say balo doesnt work hard enough when sturridge didnt even chase down the opponent 5m away.

favouritism sia. If he had put in balo instead of sturridge, i think we would hv 1 more goal. Sturridge damn selfish.

�

Yup DS is too selfish.

�

It's a vital win, considering that it's away, and our possession is so much pathetic....
3 points UP :))

Time to sleep liao :))

Sterling's passing is really poor today.�

An important and absolutely vital away win.
A clean sheet against a genuine top 4 contender.
At times were in sixes and sevens, still somehow managed to come out of it unscathed.
Lovely goal by Coutinho.
Leapfrogged over Spurs to be at 6th position.
From Arsenal at 3rd to Spurs at 7th, all position separated by 1 point per position.....
All in, a smashing result!

We were pretty lucky overall. They definitely played better but Coutinho's strike was world class. SM played well too.

Can't understand what Markovic was playing�against Soton .... [grin] ��

�

Making so much mistakes ... [crazy]

�

Another one was Joe Allen ... [dizzy] ��

Maybe the rain helps Pool ..... :huh:

Markovic is signed as a winger / forward

Thats right and thats why he lacks defensive capabilities.

�

To stop the attacks from Soton�down our left,�

�

Moreno was put there as he defends better.

�

This is the first time in 30 years Pool has kept

�

5 away clean sheets since Joe Fagan was our manager.

�

�

OK� so it's a big reversal from earlier in the season when we never looked like we'll keep a clean sheet in any match at all.�

�

I really hope that 'things even out over the course of a season' (or, over the course of 2 decades) is really true. If that's the case, then we can look forward to conceding less (or better, no goals) for many more matches till end of season - since we had conceded so many of them earlier.

�

The similarity goes for goals scored. We hardly carve out half decent chances in a match up till maybe Dec, so maybe the goals will start to flow and the floodgates will open from now on.

�

Then only there will be genuine hope of snapping up UCL spots...

�

�

Looks like nobody is talking abt BR's head on the chopping board liao

But somehow, his tactics baffled most of us leh.... maybe he is keeping some tricks up his sleeves for the europa match....

Things are looking up.

�

We are just 3 points from 3rd place.

�

Took CNY to actually watch 2 late (or early) Pool matches live - something that I've not done for years (the 4 am match, that is�).

�

It's clear that Lucas is missed. While we kept clean sheets in both matches, I can't say that we looked comfortable when defending, or rather, we didn't look really solid. It's still, however, obvious that confidence - sorely lacking in the first 4 mth of the season) - can be seen and felt by the defenders and midfielders when the opponents are attacking. There are also more outlets when it comes to relieving pressure when under attack, and hopefully spotting a player or two�upfield with space and releasing the ball to them to counter attack at pace.

�

Compare this to the ultra-negative football we were playing in Sep-Nov, when LM passed to LB, who will kick to MF running back who will in turn kick the ball to LCB, then to RCB, and to RM, who then reverse the order - before repeating till end of the match!

�

Soton was spot on in getting their wingers to keep our wing backs busy. This is important as Markovic can't defend well, esp. on the left. In one previous match, he put in a good - if not great - shift when defending while he played RWB. Ibe at least did better on the right. This kept our own wing play limited, as our WBs can't afford to roam too freely upfield and neglect the defense. If other teams do this too, we'll need to counter it quickly.

�

The wet field didn't allow our creative players like Sterling, Lallana, Ibe, Coutinho to show much of their skills. Any promising attacks were usually snuffed out pretty quickly by the Soton defense and midfield - credits to them. They controlled possession up until they reach our penalty box, when we somehow managed to get the balls away, legal or not.�

�

I can only say that if we were the one denied the decisions, we would have been screaming too. So we were lucky - and probably due some of it anyway.

�

The difference was that with only a handful of shots, we managed to put 2 into the net. With all the possession Soton had, you can see that they were not very imaginative or threatening when reaching the last third of the field. This is where I think is very useful and important for us. We need to show more of such performances and solidity (although this can still improve further, and we must), so that opponents will not grow confidence and come at us all the time. There were still a few hairy moments, and if we manage to weed them out, then we will suddenly become a very mean team. Pity that Lucas is not here to help.

�

Sturridge is selfish. Maybe that's a good trait of strikers, but he needs to make himself an even more valuable player by putting the team above him. It was obvious in the last 2 seasons that he didn't want to lose out to LS, and so seized on every opportunity to shoot, and will complain if LS didn't pass to him if he was in a decent position. He missed more than half the season this term and is thinking of making up for lost time, but if a teammate is in better position, he must know it's better to pass than shoot. He also doesn't pressure opponents the way LS did last year. And he didn't defend. He better read the papers where BR was critical of Balo's work rate.

�

I think Coutinho heard my vibes about his shooting, so that's good. Keep it up!

�

There were too many bad passes last night, and luckily that didn't affect the good result.

�

More difficult matches coming up that will decide our season. Bad time to play City as they were a shadow of themselves just a fortnight ago, but has now trashed Newcastle. We'll need to play to perfection to beat them, and will hopefully get the result like last year. If we do that, then maybe, just maybe we can get the feeling and conviction that we can play anyone (Utd, Arsenal, Chelski lie in wait) and beat them, reminiscence of last season (minus the slip�)� [:)]

�

Looks like nobody is talking abt BR's head on the chopping board liao

But somehow, his tactics baffled most of us leh.... maybe he is keeping some tricks up his sleeves for the europa match....

�

When things are not going well, a change is in order. BR's problem was he was fixated with his own ways/methods for so long (what, 4 mth?) and couldn't (or worse, not willing to) change anything, and the slump continued.

�

Credits to him when finally changed the shape and tactic (and personnel) and it's pleasantly obvious the performance improved.

�

Yup, hope he'll have some more tricks up his sleeves, as I'm concerned that more teams might dominate us the way Soton did, by restricting our WBs, and put a couple of good players in the middle to avoid us having the numerical advantage...

�

�

if the team is winning, no need to chop him, but can continue to detest his methods. how do u motivate someone who made positive contributions for 3 matches in a row? tell the whole world he needs to do better! that is not the Liverpool way

�

he is riding his luck... we got away with 2 stone wall penalties and 3 possible red cards & penalties

�

but winning ugly is necessary, so his job is safe for now

why is Joe Allen still in the team???

�

conceding so many dumb freekicks!

No choice.

Actually, Allen is 3rd in line for that position after Lucas and SG.

�

I just hope our 2015 luck can continue for the upcoming matches against ManC, ManU....

From now onwards, every 3 points is so valuable that can make or break our season !

�

As long as I didnt change back to using his name or initials, he is still consider to be on the chopping board�

�

�

For me he is only getting a stay of execution. Ultimately i don't see us winning the title next season or after (don't dare to say ever).

And the win yesterday was definitely not a good win. He is just a "will do for now" status.

Liverpool need to control the midfield and strong in defence consistently if they want to be a top team. If not, just relying fast pace counter attack football can only win you the odd cup final match.�

�

I was surprised that Morgan Schneiderlin and Mane not in the starting 11 for Southampton. Morgan can controlled midfield and prevent Liverpool from breaking from midfield in counter attack and Mane can hurt Liverpool as part of 3 strikers tactics Southampton deployed.�

�

Liverpool can get Kolo's help to lock his brother Yaya inside his house and stop him playing for Man City against Liverpool � [sly]

�

Once Yaya is back from African Nation Cup, Man City's form improve. So stopping him and the Man City attack is crucial. I take a draw for this match and win against chelsea arsenal and man utd. I prefer to let Man City win the league.�

Glad we win with joke Allen playing

sotong 0-2 LFC wins

My first accurate predictions :) and I like it. summary of the match�for the MTM��is goal keeper Mignolet, He is a change person , confident, command the back line and can catch hold of the ball. I think he�saved 3 fantastic shots from sotong.

� Although we got no majority of the balls the defenders ( except lovren)�and goal keeper keep us in the game.

� Makovic is poor, lovren too. Although sotong look good it remind me of the Kenny dalglish time just cannot score lol. hitting wood work 47times lol those days.

�As long our defend hold we can always be in the hunt :)

That's why Lucas is important...

�

Or last time Mescherno even better. It would be ideal if the DM is tall and good. The one that comes to mind and I'm envious of, is Matic (minus his rash retaliation). At 1.94 m, he is 26 cm taller than Allen� for 3rd match running, during corners Allen was marking someone taller by one of at least half a head...

�

Kolo could have done something last year to make his bro injured early in the match. So maybe this year also planning something...

�

I also dun like chelski winning. i hope - even though i doubt it will happen - they self-disintegrate in the last 2 months, and drop 15 points...

I think a good defensive midfielder must be strong, has good passing rate, can keep the ball well, good stamina, not injured prone, can protect the defence well, fearless and stand up for his team mates.�

Henderson? for the last point...

i find JA is trying to be Mascherano, diving into tackles... prob is Monster timing is much much better

http://www.football3.../John-Nicholson

read this on one webbie:

�

hump3. (Ipswich Town) says...

Magnificent. Outstanding. Great Team Performance. The holy trinity of Brendanisms. The thing about Liverpool at the moment is Brendan only has one philosophy, "Go out there, be awesome, and play Rodgerotically" On form they are doing that with the popularity of an E. L. James book, little argument that they are the neutrals favourite for fourth now, n'est-ce pas?

http://www.whoscored...OZEqMY6Fx0oOORw

Interesting...

Henderson? for the last point...

�

i find JA is trying to be Mascherano, diving into tackles... prob is Monster timing is much much better

�

His legs are too short

�

that's why he miss time his tackles.

�

If he was slightly taller then he would

�

have got a toe to the ball and it would

�

be a clean tackle.

�

�

We really rode on LUCK in this match .... but this LUCK is long overdue !

And its time we have this kind of LUCK in every match from now onwards :)

�

Hopefully, the players can regain their composure and strength for the Thursday europa match :)

�

10000% agree with the luck being long overdue!� [laugh]

Anyone been to Anfield in the past one or two years?

�

Any nice hotels nearby?

�

10000% agree with the luck being long overdue!�

�

On luck even-ing themselves out, this is what I posted in the other thread on BPL.

�

How about over more than one season?

�

I remember sterling scored at City last season but was ruled offside, wrongly. Hope that will allow Pool to win this weekend�

�

Then Eto'o clear foul on suarez that should have resulted in a Pool penalty last season, that wasn't given - before Eto'o later went on to score the winner at stamford bridge. Plus the bad luck of the slip in the home game� Hope this season pool will beat chelsea at the bridge.

I hope liverpool win this weekend

Despite me don't like Chelsea and Rodger, I will still want liverpool to win. Chelsea winning title or not is not my concern. My concern is whether liverpool win or not.

Sama sama here :)

Hope Pool win this weekend match !

�

And didn't we remember the famous huddle by SG when we last met Man City at Anfield, saying:

"This does not f****** slip now,

Listen. Listen. This is gone.

We go to Norwich. Exactly the same. We go again. Come on!�

�

Ibe made his debut in May 2013, picked by Rodgers for a 1-0 victory over QPR at Anfield before he went on loan to Birmingham and Derby Country. In nine appearances he has never lost in a Liverpool shirt.

�

No-one deserves more credit than the player himself for his development, but others have played their part in his progress.

�

Sometimes they deserve a pat on the back, too.

�

Kenny Dalglish was short of numbers for a six-a-side game at Melwood when he fetched Ibe over to play with the senior players for the first time in 2012.

�

Ibe showed no anxiety, announcing himself to a group of players that included Luis Suarez by scoring in the top corner, first with his left foot and then with his right.

�

When Suarez asked how old he was, the Uruguay forward refused to believe that Ibe was only 16. �At least 18,� was Suarez�s response.

�

Nobody knew too much about this kid from the Liverpool academy and nobody was quite sure where he had come from.

�

�

Burnley striker Danny Ings has turned down the chance to join Real Sociedad in the summer, because his �heart is set� on a move to Liverpool, according to The Mirror.

�

He doesn't want to play for the chosen one who is a football genius.

yes, best man trumps a genius

alien perhaps or genetic engineering experiment?�

Mario should b ard. He has enuf quality to b at least on the bench. A strikeforce of sturridge, mario, ings, origi is gd. But may need 1 more. Ings may b a 1 season wonder. Origi is young n may need tim. to adapt to bpl. Sturridge is always injured. Pool really need one more quality striker who can last a season. Doesnt hv to b world class.

Anyone been to Anfield in the past one or two years?
�
Any nice hotels nearby?

wah ...somebody planning to go anfield sia. i tink many who got there will stay at manchester. Or u wait la...they bldg a football themed hotel nearby.

Please remove Borini. He feels like a sore thumb in this group.

why borini cannot make it leh?

�

Ings better than Borini?

We will be without Henderson and Coutinho in the Europa Cup......

Looks like the amount of games played is starting to take a toll on the players.....

Maybe rested for Man city match? Guess now with top 4 more visible, it may be an easier route to champion league than winning Europa league.

�

Really?

�

Then who is captain leh?? Skrtel? jialat hor, seems like nobody is really decently experienced (has been around some time) and good (can command respect).

�

I think the plan is for�Mario,�Borini and�Lambert

�

not to be around and we add one more striker

�

cos Sturridge is always imjured.

�

�

Lambert will only get older, and slower� unfortunately. So while i like the emo part of him having begun at Pool and finally 'making the grade', think he must go...

�

Borini tries hard, but somehow just doesn't click leh...

�

Mario if can make good, should be an asset, although still yet to confirm...

�

But risky if depend too much on sturridge, and others unproven leh...

Hopefully don't risk any more injuries or knocks in this match...

we still need men for a more important weekend clash with Man C

According to reports, it will be skrtel as captain. Toure will be playing as Can will most likely be deployed in midfield. Sakho did not travelled.

�

If back 3 are Lovren, Skrtel, Toure, and Sakho did not travel, then who is back-up centre-back? Can, who likely will start in MF? Or Johnson, who gave a bit of scare when he remained on the ground for a while not long after coming on during the weekend?

�

I think a bit risky.

�

MF also, if Hendo and Coutinho doesn't play, then it will likely be Lallana, Can, Ibe, Moreno, Sterling, and who else? A bit light leh� how come not many options left?�

Johnson also not traveling as he has a knock. I think the sub defenders will be manquillo and maybe Enrique. I don't think we need back up centre back as we ar playing 3 already. Can can move back if necessary. Or change formation. But changing formation least likely as knowing the best man for the job, he doesn't want to change his "winning formation". Sturridge can start and don't forget Allen.

�

ha ha� yes, forgot the midget Allen� think he sure start alongside Can as shield for defense...

�

hope can hold out and not lose this match� and also hope no more injuries...

�

Entering critical last leg of the season, so need full strength to get as many points as possible.

can, allen n lallana in midfield with sturridge n balo upfront. that should b gd enough. but wont hv the subs that can change a game.

Yah. In case anyone ask who can cover for midfield, Can put Enrique at left sided central midfield. If I am not wrong he has played there before for Liverpool for one match lol. Toure too can play midfield. But I think he is more important in defence so I wouldnt take that risk. I rather put Enrique there in case something happen to allen or Can. If not shift Lallana to midfield and put Borini or Balotelli as one of the 3 attackers. �

I hope he knock his head because his best match come after he got his head knock

�

yes, best man trumps a genius

�

this Ibe sounds very mysterious... almost like he suddenly appear at 16 yrs old as a well formed player

�

alien perhaps or genetic engineering experiment?�

�

i always thought his name is pronounced.. " E-Bee like our ebe sushi"

�

the other day saw henry say it " i-Bee" .. [dead]

Yes, Enrique the forgotten man...

Last season (or was it 2 seasons ago?) at one point he was playing very well, combining with Suarez and providing a number of assists, then later LS reciprocated and Enrique also scored a few goals.

�

He was also IMO quite zai and can shield the ball well, so was difficult to beat. Pity he didn't quite recover to that standard after his injury...�

actually no need worry lah! we only need a draw in turkey!

�

We are not aiming for draw lah, we are aiming for a WIN :)

Cos, we are Liverpool FC :))

Sadly not a single player from the famous Istanbul night in 2005.

yeah...he was very good b4 his injury. but so far, he plays like s league standard. dunno how bad his injury was till he become this bad.�

okay saurez didn't bite

Hope the lads give a good account of themselves tonight, esp at the place of one of our most memorable triumphs.....
YNWA!

�

Lineup looks quite potent up front. Hope Sturridge and balo can click and score some goals.�

�

But expect an onslaught from besiktas from the whistle blow, with their ferocious turkish fans behind them...

�

go reds go! YNWA!!!

Besiktas looks very compact. Hardly any room for pool to move. N their tackles really scary.

Shittt...M1 opennet in east side now doing Maintenanace...

Anyone in east side affected?

No breakthrough. Sturridge had a very gd chance, but instead of trying to shoot wif his right, tried to pull back n shoot with left. By then defenders closed him Down.

0 - 0 suits us.

�

Now Besi will need to come out and attack.

�

That will leave holes in the back to counter.

�

Why Besi have no shirts?

�

They have to borrow the Germany shirts.

�

Sovfar besiktas doesnt seem to b too eager to attack. Not committing enuf players upfront for pool to find gaps at the back.
Oh damn it.

Liverpool need to attack now.

�

Ds was non existence in the 2nd half. should take him off not Balo.

Extra time again in Istanbul.

�

Its deja vu all over again.
