Having seen the Hutton non send-off to go with some of the other decisions this week I think we must be in National Don't Get Sent-Off Unless Your Name Is Nemanja Vidic Week! Rooney, Luiz, Balotelli, Richards, Carragher, Maxi Rodriguez, Rafael and Hutton to name just a few all could/should have been sent off and haven't been this past 7-8 days.

They don't have a tough league match until a home game with Arsenal in May. It's their title. Arsenal are nowhere near good enough and Chelsea are finished.

Ok Yorky

Explain that one with reasoning because it wasn't a cheap shot was it?


So your allowed to say your playing better and I'm not? Basically anybody who doesn't support Liverpool aren't allowed to comment on them is the rule your trying to implement?

I believe in the run up to that comment we had heard how Kenny was righting the ship etc. Liverpool had lost to Blackpool, drawn at home to Wigan and got hammered at West Ham. Had Hodgson got these results you would have been lynching him. Why if you are playing so well would you drop points in these games? Don't know why I've asked that as I know you won't answer. Instead you'll aim a childish comment at me and bang on about how great Kenny is.

9 games won 5 lost 2 drawn 2: 17 points from a max of 27

Only Arsenal and Chelsea have better form over last 6 games.

Your right he's not steadying the ship and we are playing crap.

What has happened to Wayne Rooney? Totally anonymous today. I think we need to start Hernandez the next few games and give Rooney a rest. The midfield is too slow and without Anderson lacks energy. I don't know who we go for to correct it bus something needs to be done.



Not for the first time and not on his own in that respect today..

Well done liverpool, superb bit of skill from Suarez - United need some bottle in midfield, but i am getting kinda tired of saying that.

This is going to be my last post on the matter. I had an opinion. I offered it. You left it alone for a week then came out firing. Why you left it alone for a week I don't know but that's your prerogative. I have given my reasoning but to see if it finally sinks into that skull of yours I'll try one last time.

At the time I said that you had just been soundly beaten at West Ham. Before that you had squeaked through against 2nd class European opposition and had just drawn at home to the team who are bottom of the league. So if we look at that little window of form you had played 4 W 1 D 2 L 1. I think I would be fair in assuming you would have expected to win 3 of those 4 games while on form yes? Maybe that little window of form isn't a fair reflection?

You had had some decent results beforehand but the Chelsea game aside they were games Liverpool should be winning. The Chelsea win was impressive although it really can't be put into words how dire Chelsea were that day. Still you can only beat what's put in front of you.

As I've stated. You won today. Well done. Enjoy it. Don't understand why you feel the need to belittle anybody who offers a different opinion to you but again that's your prerogative. Kenny is doing ok for you overall. You are still having some Woy performances but you refuse to acknowledge those games and again that's your prerogative.

Will Kenny work out for you over a long time? I don't know. I really do worry about his dealing with the pressure. I've stated already about this but again it didn't sink in so I'll repeat it once again for you. Kenny left Liverpool first time round due to the pressure. There is considerably greater media intrusion these days. Can he handle it? Not sure but I think theres enough doubt there to be able to question it.

He wasn't whinging. He makes a good point. Note Rafael's included in that list! Was the thigh high challenge by Maxi mentioned?

I missed the half time analysis and spent the 20 mins after the game "talking" to some scallies from Leigh who tried to nick some wine out of my old mans back garden!

He's doing a good job and I have backed it up with stats on all his league games not nit picked 4 like you.

If he how been poor I would of said so but he hasn't yes there have been so off games but so have Arsenal, Chelsea, Spurs and Man U recently

On the subject him and the media an can he handle it? have a look at some of his interviews, hes spot on everytime short and sweet.

Its all swings and roundabouts. Decisions go for and against teams. You can't argue that Man U don't get the rub of the green in most games and its funny that Man U fans are only complaining about ref decisions from the last week or so after the Chelsea game but yet in their own words after the Rooney incident it was "we can do whatever we want". How things change when decisions don't go their way!
