Ok I'll take your word on that. I do have to ask why the supposed "Best fans in the world" would turn so quickly on one manager but not the other. Surely to be the best you have to treat each manager with the same respect?

The Autumn Wind is a pirate
Blustering in from sea,
With a rollocking song, he sweeps along,
Swaggering boisterously.


His face is weather beaten.
He wears a hooded sash,
With a silver hat about his head,
And a bristling black mustache.


He growls as he storms the country,
A villain big and bold.
And the trees all shake and quiver and quake,
As he robs them of their gold.


The Autumn Wind is a raider,
Pillaging just for fun.
He'll knock you 'round and upside down,
And laugh when he's conquered and won.

Fernando Torres show's why he is still the premier striker in the premier league.

Chelski missed pretty much two chances like that. There was Torres and the two on one they had where the ball was shot directly against the keeper. Could have been a different outcome.

You seem to have forgotten Rooneys penalty miss, Rooney hitting the post from 4 yards, Berbatovs effort cleared off the line when it was easier to score and Nani hitting the bar.....

You know, I still don't see what you're getting at. Like I said, this is the only time I can remember we've had an awful team performance since Dalglish returned, under Hodgson we were consistently woeful. Hodgson pulled us down, there was even talk of us entering relegation at one point. In addition to the poor performances under Hodgson, he also bought lots of very average and poor players, people like; Konchesky, Jovanovic, Poulsen etc etc and it's no conicidence that we have now sold every player that he bought. Liverpool fans, like everybody else knew it wasn't working and we needed a change, in came Dalglish and took us from something like 14th to 6th and since he returned our form was only bettered by United and Chelsea, if I remember correctly. I think it's crazy how anybody can fault the job Dalglish has done, not just on the football pitch but also with the signings and the depatures he's made.

The fact of the matter is, despite our dreadful performance today, we're still much better off than we were 12 -8 months ago.

I didn't see the match as I was watching rugby, but I saw Torres' miss on YouTube. What was Pele's penalty miss like, worse than Terry's?

Anyone seen the latest histrionics in Spain?

Di Maria went down like an old tart and sparked a top drawer bit of handbags.
