Middlesbrough - Liverpool

by Foxscullyf1 (U7937021) 12 January 2008
comment on the article

What is going on with Liverpool, Rafa needs to kiss goodbye to his job, the man has led us well but i feel that he has run out of ideas, we are not a challenging force in the premiership and nor will we be until someone with a winning mentality kicks the team into shape. Rotation!! what is that about? Choose the best 11 players and play them, rotate if injuries determine. Bizarre!!! Time for a change me thinks.

ill make it short and sweet, voronin is the worst player i have ever seen in a liverpool shirt, worse than the traores, biscans, smicers, josemis, pelligrinos, morientes', dundees, cheyrou, sissokos, kromkamps, palettas and erik meijer! i like rafa and dont want him to go although i feel he will be away by the end of the season, but this season i would like to ask him a few questions as i feel he has been disillusioned this season in many of his interviews.

1. Why is voronin playing ahead of crouch, babel and kuyt(who is also a complete waste of money!)?

2. why did you tell us that we did this stupid 6-8 men rotation system at the start of the season so that the players would be fresh come the middle and end of season so and during this period we would be winning while other teams would drop points were it is clearly apparent the opposite is happening!? can someone please answer them questions to me. Thank you!

Todays performance isn't good enough...Rafa is looking more and more like the man not for the job. I think his time is up...yikes

Liverpool are not going to win anything with Rafa.
Let's face it, they're an ordinary team who can't beat mediocre opposition.

So many people here falling for the battering, hype and pressure rafa has received from the press!

The english press are super critical and fond of making up destructive stories to sell news papers it would be a shame if that turned some true liverpool fans against there team!

I dont expect to win and i would much rather watch liverpool loose than not watch them at all. Rafa is our manager lets continue to support him and have some faith in our club!

Liverpool forever!

Why are people always so worried when we don't get the result we would like. Yes ok, maybe we should beat teams like Boro', but thats football.

We cannot go down the road of sacking the manager when we get worried.

We need to support our team through this, and hope they sort everything out.

In Rafa I trust.

Liverpool should just have patience, wher do you think United could have been without it. Lots and lots of it would do.

I guess Rafa is just having a taste of what JM had from RA.Your american owners are bosses who expect to be obeyed at every whim and the press is always ready to blow news out of proportion to sell their papers.
Sacking Rafa is not the solution.everybody must get behind the team.its only a rough time that will soon pass if the team and fans decide to move forward.This is what Chelsea fans did with JM even though we were going thru a very torrid time and LFC supporters always tried to make us Blues cry.
Rafa is a good coach who has brought you additional honours in the last 3 years.give him time.

thats the least u guys can do for your team.ok
