no chance in this tournament with Torres as our only striker, he's actually getting worse

If your hand is against your body and the ball hits it. Is it still handball? I though your hand had to be out for it to be handball.

I wonder what the extra refs are for. They should have excellent view on most incidents, but i have not yet seen them make a single call for the ref

One substitution (took off our best performer) and we've got a big game in a few days, genius.

Was he actually regarded as a good tactician at Liverpool? He plays the same style and formation regardless of opponent, and his substitutions are always like-for-like. If there's nobody available for like-for-like he'll simply not make a substitution.

Liverpool were unlucky the first half handball was nailed on. And despite not liking him much I feel bad for JC his last ever European game and it ends on a cock up.

Could be worse, at least they won the match.

I was a bit puzzled by Brendans sub's today too.

I think I would be the best manager if any club gave me a chance ;)

I get this as well, I said a long time ago to play Luiz CDM at Chelsea, low and behold, he ends up playing there!

I think we need to personally play just 1 CDM (Luiz) play Lampard/Oscar in the middle with 2 wide players, then a Rooney position player just off the striker, then the main striker Big Ba!

We make defensive mistakes, but we also definitely don't put away enough goals considering the amount of attacking talent we have available. I think our striker just gets lost in the bundle and could do with an extra player to bring some distraction to the defenders.

I'd actually like to play Torres in that position, he actually has some good vision the guy just cannot finish, he's actually made some pretty good assists this season and I think could do very well there without the pressure of being a 50m finisher.

It seemed to kill all the momentum Liverpool had. I never thought they'd get a 4th once those changes were made.

Mancini said:
Samir can do better than this year. He is a top player but he has not been playing at his level. Sometimes a player thinks it’s enough what they did the year before and doesn’t understand that every day they should improve.

Well no shit you get a player who only cares about a pay and he does not give a shit!

Hearing rumors that Arsenal had a 30 million euro bid accepted but the player wanted £220k a week. Arsenal offered a £10m signing on fee and £120k a week but we failed to come to terms. I am not surprised to see him linked with City today :(

Wasn't Raefel's on the floor though is so the volley is the harder skill.
