Yes, he has been muck but the goals were also down to poor defending.

Never rated Shelvey anyhow.

Nobody is talking about the goals, we're talking about how he's a liability right now.

5 times now suso has slipped, change the fckin boots already ffs

mark renton

Full backs not getting forward at all

noodler

Enrique another one having a poor game so far.

Misplaced passes, losing the ball constantly when trying to beat someone etc.

OwaynOTT

Enrique is brutal tonight.

Do Liverpool think that intensity of pressure is beneath them?

What?

skydish79

Why couldn't we have controlled the game after scoring - we have controlled it since we went 2 - 1 down

Stoke are showing us how to press in the attacking 3rd

Suarez looks bright and might save us

Jax Teller

Funny to see the Stoke full backs swapping positions .

Stoke DNB is a cracking bet, ditto over the total corners for any of Liverpool games. Stoke like their corners too.

I hope someone else followed. Over 11 corners was evens! Should have been set at 13 at least.

Gerrard you waster, Liverpool can't throw away possession with glory shots.

Suso is actually doing rather well.

Surely you know what you meant yourself. Why are you asking him?

This is a complete performance from Shelvey.

CSF

Would not be surprised to see Shelvey subbed off at the break. Awful, awful performance.

mark renton

Omg shelvey

I am pie

Shelvey is a latter day le tissier without the skill, flair, ability and general usefulness.

kingshankly

Please johnjo just pretend your injured

aramush

Shelvey is having an awful game out there, get him off...QUICK, regardless of his physicality.

Shelvey needs to come off, stick on a blind two legged donkey instead

Worst aspect about him is he appears to have no awareness of what's going on around him.

Just goes head down with ball and ends up with a weak attempt on goal.

Should have passed to Suarez just there as an example.

Grayditch

Stoke have eased off and we're applying pressure. Only problem is we're up against the league's best defence with the most wasteful of attacking line.

World class stuff from Reina, there, at least.

Luckycharms_74

Suso having a tough night as well.
Hendo & Sterling for Suso & Shelvey

Ah, well not many teams do.

People bemoan about Stoke and their hatchetmen and probably rightly so, but anyone watching them, and seeing their overall workrate in all areas of the pitch you will see another side of the 'Stoke'.

Walters typified it there, no right to chase that down, Reina makes a mistakes and Whelan nearly scored.

I don't like Stoke and I despise the dark side to their game but their overall workrate and hard work impresses me.

Turtyturd

One positive to Sturridge signing....Shelvey's confidence will improve by not constantly being the worst player on the pitch.

padd b1975

No final ball from Liverpool.

skydish79

Just not Shelvey's night, suso would seem a better fit in that position

Sure to see allen and sterling on in the 2nd half

Allen the crab, no thanks

noodler

I would halul Shelvey, Suso and Enrique off.

Furious with Shelvey and Enrique in particular.

Reina looking braindead for that clearance - he had about 10 fcuking seconds to make it.

Despite hpw fragile we look at the back, we do look like we could ge a goal with Suarez they way he is.

Agger is awful tonight

mike65

What the heck is Cole doing on the bench?

I'd certainly get Hendo on for Shelvey.

noodler

Never should be losing that FCUKING game.

Absolute gift of a fooking peno and we still can't capitalise.

This performance is worse than the Villa defeat - at least we controlled the game then.

A little bit more of us finishing moves and a little bit less cowardace when the ball is in the air and I'd be happy.

I disagree.

Bar the goals and maybe one or two other incidents I think we are actually the better side.

I just can't stand the cowardace of conceding so soon after an absolute gift in the first minute.

Leiva

Jeez give me the two footed, fiery hot headed Shelvey rather than this half arsed apathetic Shelvey.

Next goal the winner in this one.

Sorry but are forgetting Cole and downing?

Washington Irving

I wouldn't be upset if Shelvey went back on loan to Blackpool tbh.

Well neither contribute much to the team do they?

CSF

Sky pundit really covering himself in glory in relation to the Suarez peno incident there.

J. Marston

Class defending from Squirtle there.

What does it say about Rodgers if he keeps picking Shelvey?

While Sahin can't even get a look in.

Stinks of a man who hasn't a clue

Well he's not English innit?

Gerrard penalty was great though.

It's terrible coverage.

True but I know which one I want to see right now, and to think Rodgers was going to build something around him.
