Maxi's song/chant rings out. I quite like it.

Simple and effective.

Kuyt is injured I think, he's asking to be subbed is he?

Edit: no he looks fine, don't know what it was about.

55 mins - Free kick to Braga from 30 yards out, Lima crashes it off the one man in the wall, the ball hits Meireles' arse and it goes out for a throw in.

Aristotle · « **Reply #83 on:** March 17, 2011, 09:21:18 pm »

Joe Cole has brought in his unique way of football. It's the Liverpool way lost in translation, otherwise known as the don't pass & don't move

Meireles -___-

Jesus Raul! Ten bob bit for a head.

Buzz Killington · « **Reply #87 on:** March 17, 2011, 09:22:42 pm »

Meireles should have done better there, it was a free header.

Azi · « **Reply #88 on:** March 17, 2011, 09:23:26 pm »

57 mins - Kuyt has pulled up and seems to be struggling. The crowd with a chorus of DALGLISH who duly responds with a wave of gratitude.

Kuyt manages to wriggle him self free from the Braga defence and crosses it for Meireles who heads over, best way to picture it is Torres' goal against pompey 2 years ago at fratton park just a few yards further out.

Aristotle · « **Reply #89 on:** March 17, 2011, 09:23:36 pm »

Is Carra a fundemental Christian, trying to dispell gravity on live TV by kicking the ball and letting it never drop down?

Passing on the ground is not a crime

Was a shocking miss in all honesty

Buzz Killington · « **Reply #91 on:** March 17, 2011, 09:25:03 pm »

FUCK ME.

Silly errors and the ball falls to Alan who was onside, clean through on goal and luckily he puts the ball wide.

royhendo · « **Reply #92 on:** March 17, 2011, 09:25:11 pm »

60 corner for Braga.

Two deflections almost lead to a freak goal.

Aristotle · « **Reply #93 on:** March 17, 2011, 09:25:37 pm »

Was he not offside?

That was Robbie Keane-esque "finishing" there

Azi · « **Reply #94 on:** March 17, 2011, 09:25:58 pm »

60 mins Meireles brings down the Braga number 30 for a free kick another poor fk from them ends up on the other side and they manage to nick a corner

was a stevie G special failed to beat the first man and from teh clearence braga shoots ricochets throught to Alan who pokes it wide heart in mouth moment thought he was offside

ATTACK ATTACK ATTACK being sung now

royhendo · « **Reply #95 on:** March 17, 2011, 09:26:18 pm »

We keep conceding possession in the midfield which makes you crave more control.

Direct play moves us up into their half with a foul on The Behemoth.

Anyone got any Red Bull for Joe Cole?

He started off like he'd eaten his Weetabix in the morning, but he seems to be lost in the hole at the moment, nowhere to be seen.

royhendo · « **Reply #97 on:** March 17, 2011, 09:26:44 pm »

62 Nothing comes of it.

Buzz Killington · « **Reply #98 on:** March 17, 2011, 09:27:24 pm »

Alan just swung at Carroll off the ball, not a clean hit, play goes on. Everyone else see that? He's lucky Andy's on a yellow.

Aristotle · « **Reply #99 on:** March 17, 2011, 09:27:34 pm »

For the love of all things holy take Cole off.

He does nothing on the ball, his off the ball movement is statuesque and he's out of breath scratching his arse

royhendo · « **Reply #100 on:** March 17, 2011, 09:28:30 pm »

62 Carroll heroically retains possession outside the Braga box. Nothing comes of it.

Aristotle · « **Reply #101 on:** March 17, 2011, 09:29:00 pm »

Seriously ref?!

Unless it's a 100% unmistakable foul we won't get a call in our favour. They need a 2/98 and we have to count our blessing to escape a booking

Azi · « **Reply #102 on:** March 17, 2011, 09:29:01 pm »

i dont see what we stand to lose with playing pacheco am sure he will be fitter than cole and frankly he cant do any worse

Wilson for fuck sake stop hoofin the ball

Buzz Killington · « **Reply #103 on:** March 17, 2011, 09:29:57 pm »

This ref, what's he on? It's at Anfield and Braga are getting ALL the 50/50's and we're not getting freekicks for fouls. It's ridiculous.

royhendo · « **Reply #104 on:** March 17, 2011, 09:30:18 pm »

64 - very kittle movement. Braga are comfortable as things stand. Cope dawdled on the ball in the centre circle (again) and we lose it. It's like a hot potato.

Wilson's probably nervous as hell and playing out of position as well. I agree with you though. I don't see what Cole brings to the team that any of our bench men bring. And that's saying something $:-\$

Buzz Killington · « **Reply #106 on:** March 17, 2011, 09:31:34 pm »

Who to bring on, N'gog or Pacheco? A change definitely needs to be made, personally I'd take Cole off for Pacheco, but that's just me.

Quote from: Dr Manhattan on March 17, 2011, 09:29:58 pm

Yep, this stinks. Possibly one of the worst performances I've ever seen.

Absolutely nothing going on. So probably about time for some incredible energy from Spearing or Poulsen....

Was afraid it would happen with Carroll upfront. Without Agger our defense can't pass a ball. Carroll is tall = hoofing.

Quote from: ozzy-red on March 17, 2011, 09:30:03 pm

May as well bring Ngog on and move Dirk out wide.
Cole seems to be stuck on a treadmill when he runs.

runs

Azi · « **Reply #108 on:** March 17, 2011, 09:32:24 pm »

Aristotle thats the thing hes not he played there for Rangers the only thing that goes in his favour is that our midfiled is serioulsy missing gerrard and we cant pass it short

Frank. · « **Reply #109 on:** March 17, 2011, 09:32:29 pm »

Take 40 a day off for Pacheco please.

royhendo · « **Reply #110 on:** March 17, 2011, 09:32:50 pm »

The game has to open up now.

66 Carroll is offside but is he?!

Azi · « **Reply #111 on:** March 17, 2011, 09:32:54 pm »

another long ball

Buzz Killington · « **Reply #112 on:** March 17, 2011, 09:33:02 pm »

The hoofing is embarrassing and needs to stop. This is absolutely ridiculous, it's not a crime to pass it along the ground for fucks sake!

Quote from: El Campeador on March 17, 2011, 09:31:05 pm

I hate to say it but, Braga's defending like a well-drilled Rafa machine defending a one goal lead away in Europe.

Was gonna say they remind me of the 2004 Greece team. About as fancy as a $2 whore but get's the job done.

Quote from: Twelfth Man on March 17, 2011, 09:32:12 pm

This is depressing. Hoof hoof hoof. What young parent would want to send their talented young kid to Liverpool only to learn this. Static and over-run in midfield. Wilson, Carragher and Skrtel hoofing like its going out of fashion.

Like I said earlier don't pass and don't move, it's the new Liverpool groove

Quote from: Redsnappa on March 17, 2011, 09:32:40 pm

What the fuck is it with the team? Do they KNOW we go out if we don't win?

Johnson has been utter, utter shit tonight.

He looks so much more comfortable on the left it's quite astonishing to be honest $:-\$

Terrible offside decisions all over the place. Carroll was level by a half step.

Fully agree, the decisions just haven't gone in our favour at all tonight.

Buzz Killington · « **Reply #115 on:** March 17, 2011, 09:34:20 pm »

And ANOTHER attack breaks up when the ball is at the feet of Joe "Messi" Cole.

royhendo · « **Reply #116 on:** March 17, 2011, 09:34:24 pm »

68 Got to play football on the ground and in their half. But we hit it long. Offside.

Johnson takes off uP right - Cole can't keep it. Nothing comes of it.

royhendo · « **Reply #117 on:** March 17, 2011, 09:35:34 pm »

Skryel lunges in on a breaking Bragamanian. Yellow. Dangerous free.

Reina just about holds Vaiana's shot.

Azi · « **Reply #118 on:** March 17, 2011, 09:35:41 pm »

70 Mins once our best chances (few and far between i agree ) has been when we play it along the ground

skrtel trips up a Braga player yellow card 30 yards out far right hand side decent effort low hard shot goes under our wall and pepe does well to save it

Buzz Killington · « **Reply #119 on:** March 17, 2011, 09:35:53 pm »

Quote from: El Campeador on March 17, 2011, 09:34:15 pm

Er are hoofing because they aren't giving us time. They are pressing high up the pitch.

Fair point, but even when we've had time, it's just been a hoof. Braga are looking decent, we definitely need to make a sub.
