    you know, all things considered, it's been a decent first half

    Only since Lawrence came on

    U like lawrence then? :p

    How could he stay on his feet with a player flying in from the side!

    He was hell bent on hitting the floor once he realised the ball was gone from him, its a mentality that professional footballers seem to universally have. I understand his desperation, but the only way to weed out the cancer of diving in the game is to deal with it harshly.

    Best player on the pitch since he came on - I know most wont agree with me as he doesn't have a foreign sounding name & doesn't play for liverpool, but he is immense. Players like him keep teams like stoke in the Premierleague


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,337 ✭✭✭✭monkey9


    Jesus Christ, it was penalty!! A clear penalty. How anyone can say otherwise is baffling.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,910 ✭✭✭✭whatawaster


    it was as clear a penalty as you'll ever see.

    Ah right so because its your opinion its not allowed to be challenged.

    He has got 6 goals this season, im not going to check but how many have Stevie, Kuyt, Babel, Riera etc got?

    No, forums are all about debate, but when people come out with replies such as "****ing ridiculous"....I tend to think another one of those internet people who dont accept any other oppinion but their own.

    This game for me so far has only gone and shown me how much we need a more experienced striker up front when Torres is out.

    Ngog is young & he may come good but we need someone up there who can hold the ball up & distribute it wisely as he just doesnt do that.

    I really think Rafa needs to get someone in fast to deputise for these 6 weeks bacause if he doesnt i think its going to be a baron 6 weeks in front of goal.

    No team is going to come up and win a league though - stayig up and impoving year on year is all they can hope for.

    With United and Liverpool scheduled to go bust over the next few months, who knows what will happen for them :P

    What position is Kuty playing in or is he just ball chasing?

    Completley agree. His overall game is pretty poor at the minute. Needs to work on his awareness and strength. Hes pretty good at taking the ball down with his back to goal but gets brushed off the ball far to easy shoulder to shoulder.

    God it really shows how reliant Stoke are on Delap's throw ins when you see them without him. Liverpool dealing comfortably with the throws now. Could even get Kyrgiakos off now,reshuffle and get some BADLY needed creativity in midfield.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 21,235 ✭✭✭✭flahavaj

    No, no it wasn't. He was going down before there was contact. These fellas need to learn to stay on their feet.

    I'd like to see it from behind the goal, It didn't look like a pen to me from the angles I have seen it so far

    45 minutes of disgusting football. Snoozefest altogether:(

    You must be watching a different game because if your talking about the Lucas incident your are sadly mistaken it was 100% a penalty absolutely no doubt.

    Up front, yet still ball chasing

    Certainly anyone saying it was a CLEAR pen are wrong, its debateable at the very least.

    The music on the Sopcast channel at halftime is f*cking immense btw.

    No it really wasn't. He kicked the ball ahead and went down before contact was made. Smart player.

    As has become the norm to say of any game that Liverpool are involved in, the football in that half was awful.

    For me, spineless seems to be the word that comes to mind most often nowadays when we play, both in terms of the players and manager.

    Let's stop debating the peno. Agree to disagree. The majority know it was a penalty and you have the minority who are clearly wrong or just taking the p!ss

    The commentators on Sky are driving me mad saying we will be happy with a draw. We are Liverpool for fúck sake, we should be hammering teams like this, not being happy with a draw.

    Miles more entertaining that the match. I'm bopping around the living room to the old Africa Bambatta!!! :D

    Sky = idiots.

    I think this is all a cunning plan, so cunning even Blackadder would stand back in amazment.

    Lol is this a joke? Lawrence has been pretty bad since he came on, his delivery was awful and his passing has been bad.

    Thats a great way to settle a debate. "I'm right, you're wrong or taking the p*ss, so we'll leave it at that."

    Well after seeing that again I am now 200% sure that was a peno, really come on the second he chipped the ball the man was sliding into him from the side, how people think thats not a peno is beyond me.

    I think it may be a cunning plan too, but only now are we discovering that Baldrick was behind it rather than Blackadder. :D

    Maybe because he was already going down before contact was made?
