I FEEL FOR THOSE DAFT ENOUGH TO STUMP UP 47 QUID TO WITNESS PATHETICNESS

[M2XLY]

keep roberts on and bang benni up with him!

not a bad half!

robbo is awesome! best thing Ince did was gettin him in for brad!

[tonyoz]

Roberts is Roberts but I don't think he is the main problem. We have had the ball in some promising areas but Pedersen, Emerton and Diouf haven't an ounce of guile between them.

When Franco plays the team plays well, when he doesn't it doesn't. The problem is that we have no one to replace him at present. Roberts certainly isn't the man, let hope that Kalinic is...

[mogster]

CLOSE 'EM DOWN!! MAKE 'EM PLAY IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Absolutely disgraceful defending!

[RibbleValleyRover]

Poor defending for the goal, especially Olsson and Nelsen.

[beerwins]

How long does sam need to see how crap we are before making a change, 2-0 already game gone and then we will probably make changes, too late then.

[Hasta]

Emerton at fault there twice.

Didn;t close Lampard down, just stood there for two seconds looking at him and letting him play it. Then didn't go with him

[DE.]

great way to start the half.

[RibbleValleyRover]

Nothing to lose now, switch to the 4-4-2 Sam and get Kalinic, Hoilett or Benni on...

[Manc Rover]

Questioning the wisdom of getting ticket for Utd next week. Another pathetic spineless away performance no doubt!

[Big Fat Sam]

Come on Sam show us some of this expertise you claim to have and sort it out!!!

Awful defending for No.2 and yet agin another poor start to a half.

[bigbrandjohn]

Bloody powercut all morning and just sparked into life as Lampard scored. Kalinic coming on

[LeChuck]

I'm beginning to hate Ryan Nelsen. Watch how many times he aimlessly boots it either out for a throw-in or just to the opposition defence.

He cost us the second goal - firstly booting out for a throw-in when under no pressure, then playing Drogba onside. He's a liability now.

[Big Fat Sam]

Kalinic is coming on!!!

[alexanders]

No pressure at all! We should've learned from Blake's goal!

[mogster]

We're just letting them play and letting them shoot, giving them as much space as they need. I can't believe it!!

[RibbleValleyRover]

Essien... Just too easy...

You shouldn't let a player of his quality get a free shot at goal with no closing down whatsoever...

[Hasta]

Robbo in beaten from 30 yards shocker

[bigbrandjohn]

If we defend any deeper we will be at Crven Cottage

[sambo]

Allardyce, hang your head in shame

Disgraceful tactics

[beerwins]

This is terrible WHY wont they close down, im sick of getting towel whipped off the big boys, midfield is woefull, gameplan is void and poor robinson again is getting raped.

And im sick of seeing keith andrews skinned and then just point for someone else to pick them up, midfield general he isnt.

[RibbleValleyRover]

Bad decision by Sam imo, Kalinic aint a lone striker either... needs someone alongside him.

EXPERT

Every fan there today deserves their money back
