Off topic: Is Mark Halsey wearing a Livestrong yellow band?
Thank god for half time.
Absolutely terrible. Very few positives, maybe Lindegard and Kagawa.

what exactly are our tactics in this match....
And that's on 1.5 good legs.
HT
we're stronger in the second half.
Its all good my babies.

Abysmal. That half was a collective no-show from us. But that sending off has changed things.
Fergie needs to tear a strip off the lot of them. We've been criminally bad in almost every way. No changes for the second half but if they don't improve, we shouldn't wait. This game is there to be won.

Rio
Bring on Scholes, and maybe Welbeck.
Their fans are bloody ridiculous, screaming for penalties when the tackle is obviously clean.
Shelvey is a horrible little Traveller.
In my years as a fan this has to go down as one of the worst performances by us. Even after ten fecking men. Grow some balls ffs.
We are really that bad today. I thought we couldn't get any worse at Anfield but today has proved me wrong. Really lucky to be a man up, but even that probably wont stop us from messing this up today. Utter shambles
I think the paper got smudged after "Get off the team coach"
Rio and Evans fantastic, they've run themselves into the ground. We'll start to take over this in the 2nd half.
Didn't you watch us vs Basel last season?
Hairdryer on full blast.
What sort of emotion are you feeling now? Sadness for me.
Bring on Scholes, who cares if he's played too many games recently. A half-fit Scholes has more composure than all our current midfielders put together.
they're still pressing which means we won't have any advantage even though we're a man up.
very very poor, what the feck is up with us a the mo. And as for Nani please please please just show a little passion will you...
Ando for giggs pls
Need Scholes now that they're down to 10. Nani looks completely out of form too.
How the feck are we gonna win the bloody league when we are struggling against a bottom three team with 10 men?
We better turn up in the next half.
Shelvey the utter bellend.
Shelvey the utter bellend.
We are just not getting going. Our players don't seem to know at all what the others out there are doing at all.
Pathetic football so far. Rio's been great though.

Rafael, Evans and Rio have been fantastic. The rest have been shite.
Carrick has been decent imo. Some good defensive cover and one of the few players who actually looks up and picks out a man more often than not when he's playing the ball out of defence.
Halsey will have to be strong in the second half. Liverpool (both players and fans) will appeal for absolutely anything. Hopefully he can handle the pressure.
I guess the positive is that it can't get any worse.
We'll probably nick it against the ten men, and then we'll get the treatment in the football forum about how spastic the matchday threads are, how we complain too much about the midfield, how we were actually great, spoilt supporters, etc etc...
I can't remember the last time we played so bad. I would love to know why in holy feck we can't string more than two passes together.
Now that was fecking embarassing. Hair dryer treatment for sure.
I see the Zombie-passing thread coming up again...
At least we can't play any worse, can we?
The one guy who looks a threat we take him off?..
I'd move Nani to the right, take Valencia, Carrick and Giggs off. Put on Welbeck, Anderson and Cleverley.. we're being out run and we're not fluid enough in possession. Valencia's being nullified due to his one-footedness, Johnson's locked him off... Carrick and Giggs = too slow in posession for a game of this intensity.
Or we can keep it the same and win it the ugly way. A wins a win.
Everybody is shit except for Rio
Considering the relative inexperience of that Liverpool team and the fact they are having troubles adapting to a new system etc was it too much of a big deal to play the likes of Cleverley or Anderson or Buttner?
Take Giggs off. Bring Scholes on. If that even helps. This Giggs lad was supposed to be class on the ball.
