You sound like someone who doesn't know what they're talking about. But, but, he doesn't know what he's doing!
This forum lost all credibility when it went full retard on Steven Gerrard.

Nuri Sahin

Lugano vs Sterling, Sturridge and Suarez should provide a few lols.

passremarkable

its mundane quiet games like this we need to win, grind out the win

Suarez would frustrate the life out of you if you played with him, he never seems to shut up and stop giving out

God, I'd be chewing him out every 5 minutes.

Know loads of players like that, strange that it's the superstar though.

Far better option than Lucas in there from what I've seen the past few games.

Against more powerful midfield's it could be a different story of course

Kerrigooney

Cissokho needs to be drug tested at half time...he's been pretty good so far.

Hate these early games, no atmosphere.

I am pie

He hasn't done anything wrong really. But I presume the idea of Gerrard playing there is to be a deep lying playmaker? If so he doesn't know what positions to be in to receive the ball and looks lost at times

That makes no sense at all. None, zero.

kevohmsford

Gera nearly scored. He is the one player most likely to score for West Brom

noodler

And that's all it can take.

Have to stay alert.

Drexel

Pool need 2 more to make sure of this

'Shirt tugging is something refs are quite quick to pick up on in this country.'

As Skrtel has found out many times this season.

Look at Gerrard when Liverpool have the ball. Look at his movement, he is rarely in a good position to receive the ball

A few months ago I started putting a euro in a tin every time coutinho gave the ball away
Have enough now for a world cruise

It is strangely subdued.

I thought I heard someone asking someone to get them chips a moment ago from the crowd?

Sterling has been excellent

He's jersey-tugging us all the way to the champions league!!

Sterling has played very well in this game. Involved in a lot of moves.

You mean because he's filling in at the back while the wing backs move up?

Toure gives the ball away so bloody often

It suits him. Gerrard has always been a great player. He's just let down physically and a liability because of this. The deeper role where he gets to sit means you still get the great passing and he stays fresh for more of the game. Couple Henderson with him who can get up and down the pitch all day, and you have a solid midfield base.

It was a great bit of thinking from Rodgers.

internelligent

I never expected Sturridge to be anywhere near this good. Unbelievable that Chelsea let him go.

kingshankly

Free kick 20 yards outside the box we go back to the keeper Christ that's horrible

noodler

Well that free kick strangely conservative.

klose

Pretty poor but ill take it tbh. Hopefully we kick on the 2nd half

kevohmsford

1-0 to Liverpool at half time. West Brom have not done much.

Turtyturd

Great tackle on Inho.

Hangballlouie

Sterling is probably my favourite ever player for Liverpool who has worn the number 31 jersey. Never thought anyone would overtake El Zhar.

Well it made sense with a minute on the clock.

Rather boring game, hopefully with the WBA defence switch it'll liven up.

No I'm talking about when Liverpool have the ball in their own half and are looking for an option for the pass and Gerrard is nowhere to be seen. I am obviously not expecting him to be up with the strikers when Liverpool are attacking

Alfred Borden

I just cant understand why they sacked Steve Clarke for this guy

noodler

Poor play at the end tho, should have stopped the ball and turned to pass it by then, going wider the wrong option.

Shame, did very well to get that far.

Agueroooo

Jordan (cover every blade of grass) Henderson.

happy to be 1 nil up, very strange game, not a whole lot happening. clean sheet please

Weird alright! There is no tempo to the game, its all over the shop. I think Gerrard is more Masch than Pirlo, he's playing well, but I dont think hes capable of dictating the tempo.

noodler

Mikel arteta you absolute sell out!!

Jordan (runs like a T-Rex) Henderson is cooler. :P

I don't think you see that very often at the end of a first half when in a shooting position. If it goes out of play, it's almost as good. Got very nervous with the way it turned out.

He was selling some card collection thing just now during the adbreak. That's what noodler meant.

They've just let their best player and POTY over the last 2 years go to United too.

Generous little club. :P

joe123

Sterling going from strength to strength. For the size of him, its wonderful to see him shrug off challenges and continue at pace.

If he can work on his finishing, he is going to be some talent. We have a special player on our hands with him.

T'was onside anyway

He might like card-based games?

He doesn't seem like the 'coke and hooker' type. Card games could be his vice.

Suarez is ridiculous.

just plain ridiculous.

More the rent boy type. :P Fabulous player, but not exactly the quintessential macho footballer is he?
