Seriously why no Shelvey
I would gladly trade Adam for Shelvey.

Prolly a 4-3-3
And they think Hendo is enough of an attacker that adding Shelvey too would be too aggressive.
Anybody know if Gerrard really hurt him hammy?
Or is that just a rumor I heard?

Caroll looking lively.
Still not moving in the box like I want. But looks decent so far

Adam with a professional foul. Some poor defending.

Hendo with a great through ball to Bellamy. Just wide

Belamy wins a corner
Looking very good, Bellamy that is.

Bellamy missed three open guys in the box just then...
… and that’s after shooting from a poor angle 45 yards out for an easy save. Come one, Craig, look for your partners.
Great save off the corner from Agger’s header.

Pepe set off a 3v3. Adam scuffs the shot. To be fair it would have been hard to do much more.

Kuyt, great turn played Carroll in. Carroll just couldn’t quite get there.

Carroll’s touch has been off, or should I say, typical.

So why do I get the sinking feeling this is going to be another one of those games where, between missing chances, an opposing goalkeeper playing world class football and the flukey goal, we lose 1-0?
Never argue with an idiot. They'll bring you down to their level and then beat you with experience.
It looks exactly like all of "those games"

Should have been a PK?
Hard for me to tell, my stream is low quality.

Penalty shout
No luck though. Easily could and should have been. Good run by Adam. Great ball played to him by Adam.

close one
Good movement by wolves. Shot from just outside the box goes just wide.

Per ESPN Soccernet
We have 11 shots 7 of which are on goal WTF
But no striker needed in January Window!
Great move by Hendo.
Saved by Hennessey. Never really troubling the goal.

Actually don't think finishing is the problem this time...
… we’re putting shots on net, but from distance and poor angles. We need better crossing and through balls to generate some more clear cut chances.
TRANSFER NEWS!!!!!!!
Liverpool can confirm that goalkeeper Martin Hansen has tonight left the club after being transferred to Danish side Viborg FF. The 21-year-old joined the Reds’ Academy in the summer of 2006 from Brondby. Liverpool Football Club wishes Martin all the best for his future.
And Kenny said nothing would happen!
Never argue with an idiot. They'll bring you down to their level and then beat you with experience.
I think he said nothing with the 1st team would happen.

Halftime thoughts
-Should have had a penalty on a great move by Adam off a perfect pass from Bellamy
-It wouldn’t have mattered since Stevie isn’t on the pitch
-Johnson looks very shaky. Might need Kelly.
-Bellamy looks like our best player
-Carroll has looked decent. It has been feast of famine today for him, some great layoffs followed by some awful touches/passes.
-Enrique has done well, but hasn’t done much for the attack since midway through the half.
"The trouble with referees is that they know the rules, but they don't know the game" -Bill Shankly
I really want to see Bellamy up top in a typical 4-4-2
This isn’t working and there is no way Carroll is going to get space with 4 guys marking just him.
"The trouble with referees is that they know the rules, but they don't know the game" -Bill Shankly
And I can't believe we essentially traded Miereles for Henderson
Hendo hasn’t played poorly, but he is not even close to being the CAM that Miereles was for us.
"The trouble with referees is that they know the rules, but they don't know the game" -Bill Shankly
Apparently somebody at Goodison ran onto the field and handcuffed himself to Joe Hart’s goal. Odd one that.
Never argue with an idiot. They'll bring you down to their level and then beat you with experience.
Here we go again
No changes at half.

Kuyt played through by Carroll
Hennessey saves just outside his box. Kuyt just didn’t have the wheels to get to it.

Guys, you’re getting really bad with the typos. Carroll scores? Yeah, sure.

Did he actually know about the goal?
Or was it one of those where a defender tries to clear it and it hits him in the back of the head and rolls in the net? I’m actually half serious here.

Everton 1-0 Chelsea

You mean, Swansea 1 - 0 over Chelsea.
Everton up 1 – 0 on Man City.
And we were singing hymns and arias... Much louder than Cardiff because we're in the Premier League!
by Never Leave College on Jan 31, 2012 9:24 PM GMT up reply actions
You’re right, of course.
Is it wrong as a LFC fan that my hate for Everton has waned to the point where I’ll root for them over MCFC (or MUFC or Chelsea)?
Never argue with an idiot. They'll bring you down to their level and then beat you with experience.
Since a MCFC loss helps Man United, yes you are wrong.

Hadn’t thought of it that way. Dangit!
Never argue with an idiot. They'll bring you down to their level and then beat you with experience.
Otherwise, I'd agree with you.
I just want City to win the league so that United don’t. Not that I like City, but it’s the lesser of two evils.

We need to root for City in the league. If results stay the same then MUFC is level on points with them. I do not want them to get #20!!!
