You've stolen my washing
From out my back garden
You've tarmacked my driveway
Even though I said no
You've nicked my lead flashing
And weighed it in at the scrappy
Oh St Helen's tatters
Come rob me again

For liverpool fans moaning about the non penalty for the lucas tackle, the free kick that led to your goal wasn't a free kick. A great show from everton as well. I remember a lengthy discussion a year ago bout robinho being one of the best in the world, wonder if the view is the same.

Robinho isn't even the best player in Manchester City's reserves.

Indeed. Earned Hull a point almost single-handedly.

The problem with Liverpool is they need to strengthen in practically every area apart from the goalkeeper and they have little funds to do it.

They need a quality left back. Aurelio is decent, but inconsistent and Insua is the slowest player I've seen for years. They need a good back up Centre Half. Agger and Carragher are a good pairing, but Agger seems to be injured alot. Skrtel is average IMO.

In midfield they are desperately short of creativity. They need two quality wide players (although Maxi could solve one of those positions) and someone who can control the game from the middle of the park like Alonso did. Gerrard could probably fill that role to be fair, but only if they played a 4-4-2, which of course would require a new striker to partner Torres.

After that they are criminally short of depth and there isn't alot coming through the academy apart from the odd one or two.

Players like Degen, Insua, Lucas, Babel, Kyriagkos and Skrtel simply aren't good enough to be Liverpool players.

Liverpool need rebuilding from bottom to top if they are to compete with United, Chelsea and Arsenal. They need some serious investment and they need the stadium issue to be resolved.


Don't forget Glen Johnson too. According to most people on here, he is utter poop.

I like Johnson, he's been unlucky with injuries at Liverpool to be fair to him.

That must surely be the end of the road for him at City. Incredibly skilful but, even if he had the right attitude, he's just too frail for the Premier League. Plenty of small players have been successful, but usually they've had pace to make up for their lack of stature. Robinho isnt slow but he's not lightening quick and he's just too easily eased off the ball.

Yesterday's performance by City was on a par with that at Spurs. It will be interesting to see how Mancini responds.

Kenwyne Jones isn't worth £18m, but Liverpool desperately need a new striker especially now Torres is out. He'd fit in well at Liverpool with his inconsistencies. :lol:


Neither is Babel though ;)

If you need proof of Rafa not having a clue look at his teamsheet yesterday. Degen and Aurelio outwide? 6 defenders starting?
