"So happy for BR. The man sure knows his football. Without the ball we are much more efficient. If we do not get it back in their half, the system gets back into a compact unit. The players look so confident under BR's methods. Can't wait to test this new confidence against Spurs. YNWA."
"GREAT PERFORMANCE! and without Sturridge. Had my doubts about beating Wigan, especially as this is the period when they start to battle to save themselves. The team is gradually starting to click all over the pitch and we had the right mentality from the start. WELL DONE RODGERS!"
"lufeman read the full interview
His relationship not only with the players he plays with, but also the fans, doesn't really happen that often. He really is a hero and an idol for everyone. The way he is performing for this club, he deserves to be."
"Ahh come on guys man give him a chance hes 22 and has a lot to learn yesterday he wasnt that bad his trying to improve but how is he going to if you keep cussing the lad bet you guys said the same thing about hendo and now look how good he is.
GIVE HIM A CHANCE Y.N.W.A"
"Anyone planning on coming and moaning about Joe, please don't. You're the same trolls that criticized Lucas, hendo, carra in his early days (yes, people forget the booing of JC but it happened) and anyone else who doesn't look world class from the outset. Joe was comfortable in the first 2 months as we played his style, we've now evolved and he's having to adapt. Just support the lad!"
"I think right now Allen is the weak link in the team and I hope for his sake and the team he gets stronger and improves his passing and attacking skills. cant fault a super day of football, well deserved. for me Coutinho was super and plenty more to come from him."
"But it is incredible to have a player who we look to as the embodiment of what BR demands of all his players - hunger, desire, fight, intensity all wrapped in skill. If any players are ever unsure about what is needed to succeed in this team, they need only look at Luis. Not everyone will have his technical ability but there is no reason why they can't match his determination. Class!"
"Glad to see your honest about your own form. You are at a huge club with fans who expect 100% every week. for too long now we have had to put up with Manure winning everything while we had mediocre players. Whatever you think you have to do to improve, my advice is double it. Luis isn't as good as he is for no reason."
"Give Joe Allen a break hes not had a great season he admits it himself but it can take time to settle in a new team, look at Lucas and the stick he took but he worked at it, Joe is still a young player, they vary in the time it takes to ake an impact. It certainly wont help him just giving verbal stick on here but then thats all some of you come here for even after a convincing win."
"Yes ,Liverpool were good to watch, we scored great goals , everyone performed and so long as we continue to improve the future will be bright. Just how bright we will have a better idea after next weeks game. Suarez is world class,there is no doubt ,we have a strong team ,all we need now is consistancey. Well done all those who played yesterday, you did us proud.YNWA"
"I was shocked when we signed Allen especially for 15M. I questioned it for months and still do. We can only hope he does well for us but he will never be great for us. "signs" average Joe :( "
"When a player gives a difficult interview, expressing to the world he's been poor & needs to improve, why do some posters feel the need to reiterate it? Do we all always perform immaculately at work every shift, when you don't, do you admit to your team/company? The lad is 22 & didn't force anyone to pay 15mill for him. The LFC way has always been to give a player a chance, why not JA?"
"I know this lad is going to be great for us but he is definitely going through a crisis of confidence. I can see his mind over-ticking when he gets the ball and he appears nervous. He is usually an assured player and looked the part in his earlier incarnation. Its a combination of playing out of position and and adapting to a huge club. "
"No matter what people may say about Joe, he's still only 22, married with a child! He has a long career ahead of him and he is definitely going to improve! Besides, he is one of the few who actually speak well enunciated good English which is easily understood! lol! YNWA!"
"By the way people keep forgetting that Reina's contribution was monumental! He saved 3 sure goals which could have changed the whole results and tempo of the game! Well done Pepe!"
"suarez was sensational again yesterday(who's van persie?) but it is beyond me why pepe reina is getting tipped to leave in the summer, his saves against wigan were world class! YNWA"
"LFClavinio - Robin Van Persie is a world class striker who will lift the EPL this year with Manchester United. Something Liverpool have not achieved in over 20 years. He has scored 18 league goals this year and contributed to 12 assists. Care to ask any further questions without looking like a mug? "
"Leave the man alone, he played well yesterday he cant do anything to replace what happened in some games.The guy gives a 100 per cent back the team and watch them flourish with confidence YNWA"
"Luis79 put a sock in it. Calvinio was having a laugh. Who are you? A supporter in disguise? Honestly, think about it and take a chill pill while you're there."
"Did premier league predictor and have LFC finishing 2nd spurs 3rd arsenal 4th with man city n chelsea 5th n 6th. Southhampton, sunderland and Reading in relegation. Do you think it might be biased thinking?"
"Great win and performance.
On present form Allen should be on bench and Shelvey, Hendo or Suso starting. BR will lose our respect if he keeps picking an out of form player because he bought him. IE King Kenny. "
"Patto23, Allen's last game was a much more accomplished performance in which he scored and looked more like the Joe Allen of August/September. So for me, BR picked a player based on the level of his last performance in a role that suits his style. Don't pretend to speak for the majority. It's annoying."
"Montyspop & Curlieman - Hit a nerve did I? Hurts when facts are smacked right in your face. Time you two went to bed as you have school in the morning. Take care :D "
"I heven't been impressed with Joe but let's give the guy a break. Just like Speari, Downing, Hendo and so on. They are all players who want to do their best for LFC. "
"It takes a season to adjust to new surroundings. Just like downing, Hendo and Enrique have improved in the 2nd season. Even Joe Cole improved before he got shipped out."
"Dead right.. Robin Van Persie is helping Man utd to win the league with his goals and contributions.. just sad to see a talent like Suarez wasted in a middle class team like liverpool''"
"big difference between the Man utd website and the liverpool website. For Man Utd website, we are speaking about trophies (the league is already in the bag), challenges, champions league, which is what fans pay and ask for.. whereas here, there is none of these.. only hearing BR speaking about going in the right directions.. i understand that the liverpool fans cant dream anymore'' so sad"
"Luis7?9- isn't this a LFC supporters site? We all have differing opinions mate. Y'day you couldn't hold back in saying 'I told you so'. When people are more concerned with proving people wrong rather than either applaud the team or show doubt i question their motives on this site. You like Geezer have barely mentioned the game but just criticised others. Sad state of affairs pal"
"Robin____ why come on a rival teams website? use your own. I couldn't giv a about Salford United. Only become the richest club in the world cos of a air crash. #sheep "
"I can see that the truth hurts.. just want to see how you fans react to the truth.. you could just say am right, and you know am right. liverpool is just a middle class team now. Man utd is the most dominant team in England, and if you know football well, you would agree that its just because of Sir Alex"
"Robin____ Manu. Manu, blah. blah. Dif is sunshine, we are a club with values, history and traditions. You are the richest club in the world, full of supporters who have never been to Salford nver mind Old Tafford. Who's that lying on the runway!!! Crass supporters. Now p1s$ off to your own website #sheep"
"am born in Manchester, so what the crap you are talking about.. just rot in your traditions and history coz the present and the future is only for the team made of real men, Man utd not like bunch of kids playing for pool.. nite"
"trying to change the topic anti.. haha.. i understand you wont have much as an argument to put forward as your team is nothing more than pure frustration, cant even make a top 4.. just having a laugh, chill out
"
"How about having a laugh on your own glory huting website then? You stay on your website and me personally would never have the time to go on yours... Your supporters are a discrace chanting Hillsborourgh and Murderers. You lot ae obsessed with us despite you being the dominant team for the last 15 yrs. Do one "
"i still think pool is our greatest rival even though now pool is just a middle class team just out of all cups and cant even get a CL place. another thing i can come on dis site to critise you, but wat will u do in man utd website,makes no sense"
"ANI-ROAD-08 - Not all people that are here support LFC. FYI I did mention the game, I was commenting during the match not that an old fashioned fan like you would notice anyway. You simply do a runner when you are beaten. You still haven't replied to a comment which is now probably on the 8th page of the archive. "
"ANI-ROAD-08 - Why are you even getting involved? I simply replied to a no brainer who wanted to know who Van Persie was. I stated facts and he couldn't reply back. Simplez! "
"robin, obviously you are hurting so much due to the fact that we have a richer history than you manures, otherwise you would just f*off to your own site and stay away. It is called inferiority complex"
"Luis7?9 what was your question? also when some rival fan comes on here giving abuse you are more concerned about an apparent question you asked days ago. Get your priorites right ked"
"Red_4_life - He most likely is a United fan but why on Earth would you even bother getting involved and replying to him? Why would he be hurting when they are going to win the league? "
"why the f**k i care about your history.. you can rot in your history.. am living in the present. we will win a 20th le. what pool will win this year. pool is just pure frustration and cant even get a top 4.. thats called middle class team, sheep"
"Sure the manures are winning the league but don't forget we are Liverpool Football Club the most illustrious club in the history of this country no matter what. Manures can and will win this year, but we WILL reclaim our throne soon, very soon"
"Robin____ - Congratulations! SAF has done a great job. I always tell the silly LFC fans to do their homework. They still haven't learnt that you need a certain amount of attacking minded players in the starting 11 and on the bench to even think about getting into the top 4. "
"Robin____ - Ther was one numpty on here that thought we had 12 attacking minded players. I laughed so much that I almost fell of my chair. If we had 12, we would already be in the top 3. "
"I'm going now, I wouldn't call this a debate as it was pointless. Bottom line is Liverpool are miles behind United. Not many would have the balls to even congratulate SAF and what he has done for United. "
"by the way, at least our club is located in Liverpool. Where was Manure? oh I remember, I think it's called Salford lol! Man united is not even from Manchester blimey bit*ch"
"ANI-ROAD-08 - This topic was related to Allen which I replied to on my first comment. I then answered a fans question to who RVP was and then I get a bashing? Just giving others a taste of their own medicine, don't see anything wrong with that mate. Good night! "
"Luis7?9- You see yourself and people like Buddha are so obsesses in being proved right that you end up arguing and insulting fans o get your point across. Now I have never done that to you. I have debated and that's all. "
"But when some troll from Manu comes on here and you are more concerned about arguing with your own fans whilst complimenting the troll and that whiskey nosed c^^t of a manager it make me think! That's all"
"Luiz- the most funny part is when a LFC fan says that they gona do it next year.. haha.. i can almost die out of laughing. they are a laughing stock around the world. arsenal is joining them soon. pool will always be below Man Utd.. just get a good manager like SAF, be man and admit he is just a genius"
"all manure fans, players, manager, directors, etc. are shi*tting bricks watching the kind of football we are close to perfecting with BR and our squad. They know we are coming back to knock them off the summit they have occupied by not only good football on the pitch"
"Who are these guys on here? What is a Manc troll doing on here? What a sad life Robin must have if he has to get his kicks by coming on this site. Must be insecure little puppy that one. Poor little boy"
"Red4life - Good to see some fighters left on here :-)
Sometimes u have to go backwards to go forwards. That's exactly what this years is all about. New players, new philosophy. Don't worry we're going to have our day soon. It might just be an era"
"sorry joe but i beg to differ on your comment on the defending. a lot of work still need to be done. we were lucky it was wigan. we would have been punished if it were some other team with better finishers. anyway solid game and you seem to be playing better too. keep it up and do something on the defence. ynwa."
"i say its better for you to live in the past, at least you can get some satisfaction.. watching Man utd to lift the PL trophy must be so painful isnt it.. start to fight for a 4th place before even dreaming to be the num 1 team in england "
"Interesting, Manhole supporters at their rival sites... worrying abt us!!! Anyway they should starts worrying when SAF retired and their loan become unmanageable... good luck!"
"Robin_ ha brilliant a manc not only on our site but commenting...so a member? we have a great manager by the way, cant you see the comparisons with SAF. Utd will soon fall from grace, the immanent departures of SAF, scholes, giggs, evra etc. will see to that. "
"I would like o see JA play more, but if he dose not then i thnk in fairness to him i think he must be loaned out to keep him playing,,he is a very good player and will get even better as he plays"
"you all need to give joe allen a brake and by the way he played well on the weekend some on you seem to think you know every thing yet you know nothing
YNWA lfc for life "
"Whoa, Rare to see Manu clowns here. Still in the shadow of the 5 times Champion of Europe? or Manu website is still under construction? I guess Suarez over taking over Shirek, Van Pussie and your rest of the donkeys scare the of out your man hole. Get back to the man hole you guys came from."
"when your team cant even get to a top 4, what is it called, just a rubbish middle class team made of bunch of kids.. it must be hurting to see Man utd to lift the PL trophy this year while pool cant even get in the CL place.. your manager is sh*t, the world can see that, bunch of laughing stock "
