Only talking about the performance here, not individuals: dreadful. No energy, poor quality all around. We were not present. We should be able to show better pride than that. Don't want to see another performance like this in the remaining games of the season.

Not great but Swansea deserved their win and we obviously had one eye on Thursday. I don't like seeing us lose but I don't really feel all that arsed about today's result.

Bad time to have your shittiest game of the season. Have to win the Europa now. Next season without Europe would be catastrophic!

Really? We might win the league.

Saving yourself for Thursday is one thing, but saving yourself so much that you lose your professionalism is another - and that will harm us on Thursday if anything.

I know that we have injuries and that reserves were playing, but our midfield did not exist. I hope we have some kind of midfield on Thursday.

Also I don't get why Sturridge played. Who will be up front on Thursday?

Horrible but not really arsed. Not many of those picked today will feature in our starting XI regularly anyway.

Not looking good with Sturridge storming off. He deserves better

You'll have 1 or 2 truly rank games in a season, even under excellent managers. This is one of those, some of the pretenders don't seem to have got the message that they will never ever have a better chance to stake a claim than in a new manager's first season. Ah well, enjoy seeing your career pan down the average drain into oblivion.

I hope we win on Thursday or we'll be facing a horrible end to the season.

On Thursday and eventually the final! I don't understand how people can call this a dead rubber. We still needed to ensure finishing high enough to get into Europa.

We have hit bad form in May with something to play for. Coutinho, Ibe, Skrtel were really poor. So was Brad Smith. The kids were undercooked to handle the midfield.
I just hope Skrtel doesn't play for Liverpool again.

When everybody went to shake hands after the game Sturridge walked off with his shoulders slumped straight down the tunnel

Reckless by the manager on the face of it.  Means our European chances for next season really are hanging by a thread.  Champions League or nothing.  But maybe there's a reason in that plan . . . . is the Europa League really that bad to deal with?

Sturridge storming off down the tunnel after full time, tells you all you need to know.

Probably as pissed off as the rest of us. Guy had no service at all bar one through ball in the first half.

The score line doesn't reflect how well I thought Ward played.

We probably won't see a few of the players who played today with the club next season.

Disappointing we didn't win today but I guess we've thrown all our eggs into the Europa league basket.

I don't give a shit about the match but there's one big thing that worries me. It's the fact that Daniel played the full 90 minutes, which sort of implies he won't be starting on Thursday which is a HUGE drawback already.

If he's being asked to head the ball too frequently - which isn't exactly his specialty - it could affect his ear and cause an infection. Especially if the ball hits him on the ear directly.
