Woeful~

caught the game at 1am local time last nite and tbh, i almost knocked out on a few occasions only to be 'revived' by the caffeine in my body. we were woeful. totally toothless up front and seriously lack of creativity. nobody noes what to do next once the ball is out of our own half. everyone just passes the ball around, not willing to take the responsibility to initiate an attack.

kuyt was shit upfront. missed several glorious chances to get the winning goal for us. y does he gets the chance to play week in week out when he is so out of form?! just because he converted 2 penalties during the everton game doesnt mean he is in form ffs. gerrard had 2 beautiful shot on target saved by brad friedel (i sometimes do not understand y we had let him go!). he played well except for the lack of support up front. could see his frustrations during the final 10 mins when kuyt dribbled the ball up front and could released it early for him to score but he miscommunicated and sends the ball in the wrong direction. wat a shame! kewell was good... at least he pumped in some creativity in attack when he comes on. sissoko was clueless most of the time. benayoun was ineffective in this situation. ryan babel couldnt even dribble pass the defenders... most of the time, he was guarded by 2 defenders and loses the ball very often. perhaps he is still young and lacks experience in the premier league. i will not write him off at this early stage. mascherano was good! i am beginning to like him more and more, esp the way he kills off an opponent's attack. i see him as a very good replacement for didi hamann!

at the back, carragher is still the same old carragher. played his heart out. hyypia is okay except i dislike him hoofing the ball upfront. he is slow and we seriously need to find a new CB to backup carra and agger. riise is SHIT! my god... can we buy a proper leftback?! this man cant dribble and most of the time, he is slow to get back to his position and often leaves a big space at the left back for the opponents. finnan is clueless... simply clueless when he comes up to attack.

i think this rotation shit should stop asap. how can the players form partnership or anyform of telepathy if they were to play with different team-mates week in week out?! god... we were god damn woeful last nite against an overrated blackburn team. they just had to pack 9 men in defense and we were totally stiffled. we need that special 'someone' who is able to change any match with his own individual moment of 'brillant-ness'. someone like ronaldino, drogba etc. but too bad... none of the players in the current team fit into the category.
