TNS 0 Liverpool 3

Can someone pls assure me that we are only playing on first gear last night? We looked dreadful in front of goal for the whole eighty minutes until Captain Marvel scored. Cisse was not receiving good services from the midfield. He scored a beautiful first goal courtesy from a poor clearance by a TNS defender. He did some clever runs but the ball never seem to reach his feet. Le Tallac was amazingly awful. He had several scoring chances but somehow never manage to keep the ball down and they ended up blazing into the crowd. Not a single shot on target. Zenden did quite well down the left flank. He bended in a few wicked crosses but there was nobody to meet the crosses in the six yard box! I nearly fell asleep for that period after Cisse scored. We missed chances after chances and we nearly let TNS score the equalizer. It only took the woodwork and offside to deny TNS of an equalizer. Stevie G came on in the last 20 mins to replace Alonso and it took him only 1 min to save us from embarassment. 2 well taken shots by Gerrard saw TNS Hero GK Doherty beaten twice in a minute. Game ended 0-3 (0-6 agg) and we move on to meet Lithuanian champions FBK Kaunas in the second qualifying round of the Champions League. We were woeful in front of goal. Had the finishing being better, we would have beaten TNS by double figure over the two leg. Man Scum or Arse would have thrashed the hell out of the welsh champions. Hopefully with the arrival of Beanpole, we can have more clinical finishing. And with a few more weeks to go before the season officially starts, i hope the team can work harder to build some telepathy amongst themselves.
