Liverpool v/s Fulham

Atleast it wasn't another draw

Halftime :0-1
Full time :0-1
Skrtel (6' og)

I have been writing this blog since March and I do not remember any instance when I have written two positive Liverpool reviews one after the other. We have been so inconsistent this season that even a objective like finishing above Everton cannot motivate us to bring our performances up. After the match last night, I seriously wished to be at Anfield so that I could jeer and show Kenny my displeasure. I know I am being cruel but it was a wretched performance from the second string team. The only time we looked dangerous and confident was the second part of the first half. 

I was not surprised with the team sheet, I had expected this many changes. But I was surprised to see that 5 of our 7 substitutes were defenders. What this meant was that either Kenny was super optimistic about this team or he was super careful for his first string players. Any way, the performance was disgraceful and the result disgusting. Many of our passes were given away (Courtesy : Spearing and Shelvey), our tempo was super slow and our attitude was not right. It was a totally new team and Kenny expected them to gel right away (a very poor call for the king) and do another Blackburn.



Doni : Man of the Match for me .......... we would have been 0-3 down if it weren't for his fantastic saves ; God  forbid,if anything happens to Reina, I will not be worried cause we got him
Kelly : Kelly is generally the perfect substitute for Johnson with great runs and crosses, but yesterday he wasn't his usual self
Coates : Was ohkaay ..... a liitle too rugged at times !!
Skrtel : For someone who is tipped to be the Player of the Season, he was awful ...... Own Goal :(
Aurelio : This was probably his testimonial game , Bye Bye Aurelio ........ you'll be missed :'(
Enrique : Coudn't bring the much needed force/energy into the game

Henderson : For the 2nd time in a row, Worst Player of the Match for me ......... where was he and what was he doing ?? If Downing can pick up his game, why can't he ?
Shelvey : Shelvey was very much like Henderson, he too was disgraceful and he deserved the abuses he got from the Kop End for his 93' freekick.
Spearing : He is always trying too hard to impress the Manager because of which he takes many poor decisons, he was very much responsible for Liverpool's poor passing.
Maxi : Earlier this week, he expressed his desire to leave Liverpool in the summer and that was reflected in his performance .......... he seriously required a playmaker (like bellamy) to do something worthwhile.
Sterling : Liverpool has a great future ........... 
Downing : He was average but this was because there was no one to aid him throught the game......... his passes went futile as there was no one at the other end !

Kuyt  : I was shocked when he was subsituted, there were worse players than him on the pitch ...... actions like this will surely affect his confidence and attitude ....... I am surprised he hasn't expressed his displeasure till now ! Anyways, he was good and creative.
Carroll : I do not believe that I am saying this but he was indeed the silver lining ....... he was at the end of many crosses and was super confident throughout the game.
 
I know this result won't affect the players but this will definately affect the fans. They will be low on confidence as they travel to Anfield South.
However the special thing about us (the Liverpool Fans) is that win, draw or lose ..... we will always be behind our Liverpool :D
Let's forget everything and focus on the FA Cup Final next week !!Come on lads ! Make us proud once more ............ give us an excuse to forget this horrible season and move on ! YNWA !

Star Rating :  ★1/2 (1.5)
