Cheers lads, some good posts there.
My biggest worry for the team is how quickly the heads went down, it looked like they were expecting things to go wrong and when they did, it was just accepted, when Gerrard gave the ball away, the one which lead to Agger getting his marching orders, he just stood still looking to the ground in disgust with himself. There was no attempt to win it back, he just stood still till the ball was 25 yards back down field of him. It was classic self pity, classic, whys this happening to me. Every time Saurez missed a chance, he had the same look on his face as Gerrard had. It wasn't just these two it was nearly every established 1st teamer.
Maybe the players don't believe, maybe what's happened to the club in recent years has knocked their believe.
Confidence is everything in football, it's looks like we've had a collective lose of confidence
What tactics or formations the manager chooses to use will be redundant before he gets a chance if this attitude is rife amongst the 1st team squad.
I'm worried about what will happen this season, I can see us in a relegation battle.

I've been going the game since 76, home and away, ST holder the works. Yesterdays game was the first I've ever watched without any emotional involvement. I even watched MOTD last night, 1st time I ever watched it when we've lost. The reasons for my falling out of love with the club and premier league football in general are simple, I haven't got over the sacking of Kenny yet, Premier league football in general is [oops]. The whole set up stinks to high heaven. But to sack Kenny so we would hopefully get an easier ride from the media was the straw that broke the camels back.
Watching the game yesterday as a neutral (still can't believe I'm typing that)the thing that was most apparent about Liverpools play was the lack of any leadership or fight. Bob Paisley used to say, if your in fog, you stick together that way you don't get lost. Well the reds looked lost yesterday.
There's been that much upheaval at the club, Carras played for about 6 managers and 3 different loads of owners, that I'm not sure If anyone at the club actually knows what's going on. . Now I notice a lot of you have the reds down as finishing between 5th and 10th in the league but when a club has so much inner turmoil that we've had over the last 3 or 4 years added to such a lack of fight within the squad, makes me think your being optimistic. I wouldn't be surprised to see the reds well in the bottom half of the table come next may.
Sorry my first thread is such a [oops] one. Not quite there but definatly dont prioritise this club like I used to.Too many bad decisions of late and a distinct lack of trust and unity within the club.

Great point on this thread. Im very worried. Im happy with Allen, Borini and Assaidi but i would have been alot happier with Ramirez (who we were actually NEVER interested in)Pazzini and Dempsey. I dont like the way Adam, Spearing and either Downing or Henderson havent been sold as of yet, Adam is a mid table player at best, Spearing would look world class in League One, Downing couldnt set you up on a blind date let alone set up a goal, and Henderson has promise but to me its like Shelvey has everything 5 yard pass has and even more, aswel as age. We looked shocking Saturday and after we conceded it was like the players didn't want to play the new system anymore, a couple of times our CB's gave in to temptation and hacked the ball forward. Also Gerrard needs to get his finger out and realise his past performances cant cement his place in this team any longer, for the last 18 months he's been average lets face it, granted he was injured for some time. Carrol for me is the only one who seems like he's up for the challenge and he should be kept not as a plan B but to start up front along with Suarez and Borini/Downing/Assaidi, whoever turns out better. I just hope BR isn't talking the talk and we actually see some vast improvements quickly because in my opinion we played great last season we just lacked what were still missing out on now - GOALS.
