I still worry about Kyrgiakos coming up against genuine pace, Defoe caused him a few problems. Someone like Rooney would absolutely destroy him.

Different horses for different courses.

Carra and Agger took care of him

liverpool haven't won in wolves since 1979, interesting

Is it ?

That's probably the last time Wolves were in the top flight

Good start for Liverpool so far, Maxi looks like he still has pace anyways,

I'd like to see this team and formation with Torres up front instead of Kuyt, i think he'd have a goal already.

Anyways, c'mon the Pool

lol, that about 7 or 8 matches, wolves didn't get relegated till 1986, don't forget liverpool played them on a wed night in late january 2004 then as well, wolves scored a 90th min equalizer, what odds on that tonite

To be fair they were in the top flight for the first three or four years in the 80's, and I think this season is the second time they have been in the Premiership.

Yup, mental. I'd say Paisley has sent them out tonight absolutely bulling for a win after the last visit.

Wolves were not relegated from the top division in '86, they were relegated from the old third division to the old fourth division in '86.

Anyone remember Steve Bull for Wolves? He was a bloody goal machine for them.

The Wolves fans are boing as at the game on boxer day Reina ran up the pitch to tell the ref he was booking the wrong player

ctrl-alt-delete

Even with the 2 "wingers" I think Liverpool are still sticking too close together in midfield, they need to get wider and make spaces.

Mr Alan

booing Reina cause he came out of his goal to tell the ref that'd he booked the wrong player in anfield a few weeks ago.

Seriously, is this what it has come to now? :mad:

magma69

Another cracking game. End to end stuff altogether :rolleyes:. Has there been a shot yet?

ctrl-alt-delete

Kuyt looks very very sluggish, he has had 2 half chances as such so far, and not been able to do anything with them.

Spot on. Wolves are playing very tight. Wingers need to hug that line and try spread them because we are going nowhere through the middle.

relax, you were wrong, i was wrong about the wolves thing in 86, that makes two of us

Glico Man

Christ that was close.

Pool need to buck up their ideas, cos by going down the middle so often theyre becoming predictable

happyoutscan

FFS will they wake up.

ctrl-alt-delete

Very unlucky from Wolves after a terrible freekick from Liverpool, Jarvis looks like he will skin Carragher all night.

Glico Man

What the hell was that? A deep cross to a ghost of Liverpool past?

Terrible. No movement at all

jebidiah

hope someone knows this!

ive been dyng to know for ages!!

mada999

not good so far from the pool..... 1 up front is not the way to go ...

Songs

In the 1950s and '60s, the club's signature tune was "The Happy Wanderer".[citation needed] Later "The Liquidator" by the Harry J. Allstars became very popular, although use of the song ceased following a request from the West Midlands Police who claimed that obscene lyrics used by some fans[34] during the chorus could lead to hooliganism.[35][36] The tune has made occasional re-appearances at important promotion and play-off matches over the years, and a groundswell of support still exists among many supporters for its reinstatement as club anthem.[citation needed]

However, the club have since used "Hi Ho Silver Lining", a 1967 rock song by Jeff Beck, modifying the lyrics of the chorus to "Hi Ho Wolverhampton!".[citation needed] More recently, purely for the run up towards the club's 2008–09 promotion to the Premier League, the club adopted a temporary fan's anthem using a website that allowed fans to put forward their own anthem ideas, which then allowed others to vote for. This method saw "The Impossible Dream", with slightly modified lyrics, win by an overwelming margin.[citation needed] The club have now reverted back to the previous "Hi Ho Silver Lining" and for the 2009–10 season, have brought back the popular "Tom Hark" tune as goal music, last used when Wolves were in the top division.[citation needed]

No movement, no ideas, far too narrow, Kuyt drifting out wide too often and just generally bad at the moment.

Spiritoftheseventies

Just in. Some one some up first half in one word for me.

D'Agger

I'm a fan of Insua but any time he's gotten the ball he seems to be just hoofing it up the line. Either there's fcuk all movement or he's lacking vision

monkey9

Jaysis lads, we're not doing much, are we? Especially up forward. Nil all fair enough at the moment!!

Poor, can only get better I hope.

brutal game so far. rieras corner at the end of the half was the best they've done. bring on aqua for lucas or masch

magma69

What a fucking horrible 45 minutes. What a fool I was to be optimistic for the first time in so long and think Liverpool would play some decent football and cruise to a comfortable victory. I am done with optimism. Liverpool and optimism are mutually exclusive!

whatawaster

There are obvious motivation problems at the club. It's been a pattern all season. Do ok in a big game and then a flat performance in the next game. The players don't look up for this

I'm not sold on Insua.... he's good for his age but his positional sense is not great for crosses..

we need another striker on asap..

Carra, Insua, Skyrtel all hoofing the ball up!!

Glico Man

Every time a player gets the ball he dithers for a few seconds and then gets closed down so has to go backwards....

serious lack of movement from the team
