  1. Extremely annoyed as we deserved the 3 points! thanks mr wiley thats now 4 points you've screwed out of us! first manu now palace!

    From the 0-0 scoreline, we obviously didn't convert any of our chances, i'd guess this was down to our own lack of quality up front, not the quality of refereeing. Not so long ago Souness was getting slated for blaming the referees for use not winning games.

  2. So you'd replace a player who is growing in confidence and playing better with one, who has shown nothing? withstupid.gif

    Reid put in some good challenges today that broke up Liverpool attacks, without these our defence would have been under a lot more pressure.

  3. A quick note on Emerton. Is it me or does Emo seem to have gained an extra bit of pace. He actually looked quick today, is it testimony to Hughes training or Souness' lack of it. The man is definately quicker. Decent performance much to take encouragement form.

    Maybe because he's actually running at full speed instead of stopping and starting like he was last season.

  4. Rover6, after todays performance you'd be hard pressed to put a case for MGP to replace Reid or Emerton. MGP's performances in the past have not merited a place in the first team, and Hughes must see something in trainind we don't.

  5. The only thing that spoilt the game for me today was the guy sat next to me. He was only happy when we were losing, kept going, they're going to score. He must have said everyone on the position was crap bar Friedal!

    Anyway, if we can play like that every week then we will have no problem staying up. If you can come away from a match against Liverpool and be disappointed that you haven't won then it is a good sign.

    I thought Botheroyd looked class and managed to find space when he had the ball at his feet when it looked impossible. Dickov, for all efforts, just isn't good enough. I think Stead and Botheroyd can make a good pairing, with Stead making runs off flick ons from Jay.

    I was very impressed with Nissa today. He was very calm and composed on the ball, he just needs a few more games like that to boost his confidence and hopefully him and Short/Todd can solve our central defensive problems.

    Emerton and Reid were impressive. Reid his socks off and provided a some bite in midfield without looking like he was going to get sent off, which is what Tugay seems determind to do at the moment.

    However, gave two soft goals away today. For the first Neil was caught out and once Risse got the ball there was only going to be one outcome.

    For the second, if we didn't rush taking free-kicks so often then this kind of thing wouldn't happen. Tugay is the worst for this, as he always always always tries to take free kicks quickly, when sometimes it's just best to take your time and keep possesion.

    All in all very pleased with the performance and definatly something to build on. thumbs-up.gif

  6. Perfect quote on the radio

    The players are trying hard but its down to a lack of quality.

    Lets stop the cr*p about no spirit, we are putting the effort in. Remember last season we were generally awful as well

    but at least we had some quality-ie.Cole

    We scored plenty last season and our away form was pretty good. It was just the defense that was the problem. Now the problems are everywhere

    How is SOUNESS selling Cole Hughes fault you idiot! Hughes has inherited a crap team deviod of confidence and the worst defence in the premiership, it's not his fault!

  7. Greggyk, did you expect Hughes to come in and transform us into a top 6 side just like that.  Did you expect him to know instantly what the best team we have is?  Perhaps you should have applied for the job if Hughes is that bad.

    No, but i didnt expect us to get worse!!!

    Or to show no bottle or pride.

    Of course he will be given time, but how long will it be before his time is up

    And how much time will you give him? If he's lucky six or seven games?The only reason that we didn't look as bad at the end of last season was thanks to Stead's goals.

  8. Greggyk, did you expect Hughes to come in and transform us into a top 6 side just like that. Did you expect him to know instantly what the best team we have is? Perhaps you should have applied for the job if Hughes is that bad.

    Also did people expect to go to Chelsea and get a result? They are the 2nd best team in the Premiership and are destroying whoever they come up against in Europe. Get a grip!
