First half i thought we where real good.

We need to take our chances and killing these teams of.

I thought Bra Jones was real good.

Juanyboy · « **Reply #81 on:** October 20, 2012, 04:56:41 pm »

3 points, very happy with those

we didn't get out of 3rd gear today and our finishing, well, that has to improve ten-fold. If it does then the complaints that will come about us not putting games to bed will disappear. Let's hope BR sees that as priority #1 to work on.

Ugly win, how long since we've had one of those?

Roll on Anzhi and the blueshite.

Got the result, nervous towards the end thought it was inevitable they'd score.

Piss poor refereeing again. Quality goal from Sterling.

Still massively obvious that we need a scorer though.

Jones and Sterling stars in this one, really, really happy for Brad.

SG some great passes, although some seem down on him no matter what

The Jackal · « **Reply #84 on:** October 20, 2012, 04:56:52 pm »

Thank fuck for that. Not the most comfortable viewing. Got really nervous towards the end....

Win's a win though, and especially coming after the international break 3 points in the bag is always good. Finishing still a massive problem for us though - 23 shots, 13 on target 1 goal...

Shout out for Brad Jones too - played well today.

Thank fuck-a-roo. Really don't know how we can fix this wastefulness in front of goal but I'll be hoping it works itself out, even just a little bit, between now and January.

Il Capitano · « **Reply #86 on:** October 20, 2012, 04:57:06 pm »

Our defence is a fucking mess, I don't know what they're doing half the time. Not tracking runners, not closing players down. It will cost us with more lethal opponents.

Other than that well played Raheem and Suarez was phenomenal, but his finishing is a problem.

please, I have my reasons for it but... · « **Reply #87 on:** October 20, 2012, 04:57:08 pm »

It's time we seriously consider Gerrard's position in the starting 11.

Nevertheless, 3 points. Well in.

Is that who that was? Fucking dickhead, knew he sounded familiar but couldn't place him. "The crowd are going to get a reputation as referee-baiters" - ooh, God forbid a crowd calling for decisions for their team at a football match. I heard some people were swearing too. It's just not cricket.

Liverpool v Reading Full Time Match Stats

27(7)   Shots (on goal)   9(3)

I think with 27 shots you need to get more than just 7 on target really.

I think if Adam does get the chance to play on a regular basis for the first team it won't be in a central position because we've got Luis Suarez there, so that's the thinking behind it.

That is such a fucking worrying statement. Suarez had 9 shots today, he put 6 of them wide.

Ridiculous overreaction.

Suarez has been on fire this season, and he made the one goal we did score today. That's not even factoring in the fact that he played 90 minutes at 3500 metres altitude only a few days ago. I'm surprised he started at all; if we weren't so desperately short up front, surely he would have been rested. Strikers are allowed to go a game without scoring every now and again, especially if they're creating chances that lead to winning goals from others.

IndianRed · « **Reply #93 on:** October 20, 2012, 04:57:51 pm »

A win was what mattered the most today. Especially with all the lads returning from an energy-sapping international break, including even our U-21's. Clean sheet was a massive bonus for the defense. Delighted for young Raheem. Hopefully the first of many, many more goals for the club. Our midfield was very sloppy in possession in the second half. You could see Allen, Suarez and Sahin visibly tiring as the game went on.

Bring on the blueshite next. Oh, and wrap up Suarez in cotton wool. No need to risk him in the Europa or other cup tournaments.

3 Things.

Barry Horne can fuck right off with his fucking Anfield is a Turkish/Stoke approach in hostilities for a ref. c*nt.

Brad Jones gets the derby.

The 'fans' giving it the anti Suarez "he needs to stop diving" shite in the half time chit chat thread need to again have a word with themselves.

3 points, at home, get in. Raheem, we will be seeing you do that many, many times.

Gazza-LFC · « **Reply #96 on:** October 20, 2012, 04:58:01 pm »

Wow we won at Anfield! Was expecting everytime they came near our box for them to snatch a flukey equaliser! We could have scored 4 or 5 but Luis was having one of those days! Glen was out of this world.

Stevie had a superb game in the first half in my opinion. second half not so much, but so goes it for the rest of the team.

Geezer08 · « **Reply #102 on:** October 20, 2012, 04:58:33 pm »

a win is a win, but how poor we were.

We completely lost our composure and patience in the second half and became too direct, we more intelligent players who have the ability to get on the ball and slow it down. Suarez and Gerrard are a 1000 miles an hour players, with extra bit of composure we would have torn Reading apart.

Hopefully Lucas is back soon, so we can get the balance right in the midfield again.

But a good win and delighted for Sterling to get his first goal

Yeah haha, what was that all about? Thought he was going to start crying because he wasn't starting right there and then.

Melbred · « **Reply #104 on:** October 20, 2012, 04:58:38 pm »

Well done to Sterling for his first goal. Suso had another great game too.

Jones is also more than capable as backup.

Suarez looked to have a bit of pace about him today, La Paz didn't do him any harm it seems.

MrEazi1 · « **Reply #107 on:** October 20, 2012, 04:59:11 pm »

Phew ! We created a ton of chances but failed to put them away. Sterling was very impressive throughout and took his goal well. Reading were dangerous on the break in the second half and our midfield didn't cover our defence well enough. Suarez was wasteful in front of goal but what a glorious pass for Shelvey whose first touch let him down. Brad Jones pulled off a number of top saves and his command of the box was very encouraging.

Enrique did well down the flank when he came on and more experience for youngsters - so all in all, a good win albeit just the 1-0, we should have been out of sight but its three points, and a welcome first home win of the season.

The ironic cheers were hilarious.

Onwards and upwards !

Luis is such an enigma, I don't think he is a finisher at all, but then when he scores like he did at carrow road 2 years in a row.

anyway, 7pts out of the 9 for the last three games. good enough.

Don't give a shit who misplaced a pass ,who didn't track back etc because the main thing for now is we win ,get the confidence up and the better performances will grow from there

3points get in

Plus Suarez should have squared that(to sahin) opportunity he got after their goalkeeper made a meal of the clearance.

Was impressed with Jones,Johnson and Gerrard today. Bring on Everton.

It goes way beyond that as well. Suarez always tries things which have such a low percentage chance of coming off - sometimes he just floats the ball towards the box. I'd rather Suarez (and not Borini) had got injured because I honestly don't think he is good for this team.

Bollocks. He was at his wasteful worst for us at times today but he also created the goal and a lot of other chances too.

He's also got a fairly decent scoring record for us this season.

First home league game where we have actually created lots of good chances, delighted with 3 points.

Hopefully demonstrated to the manager that when we get other striking options Suarez is moved out to the left or right, really should have grabbed a hattrick today.
