With Rafa.

Wigan was one draw too far. His substiutions and initial squad selection were baffling to say the least.

He left Kuyt out @ last, but then also left out alonso who has been influentional for us this season. He persisted with babel who is now 22 and been with the club for 2 years and still crap, and left riera out.

He took Torres off and put Babel upfront, when it should of been Keane. And then withdrawing Gerrard, (even though he was crap all night) with 7 minutes to go.

He needs to get his act together, he hasnt and wont crack up (as the media make you believe) but if Liverpool dont win the title this season it will be down to his stubborness... His persistence in playing Lucas and his crouching of Keane is baffling.

The team have been unlucky, torres below par, as has gerrard.

There is more to come from liverpool am sure of it, as chelsea seem to of come through there bad patch and united did just after or before xmas. hopefully we will come through this one starting with sunday @ chelsea. Being 2 pts off the top aint all bad but for the moment im trying to find anything to be optimistic about as they way the team are playing from the defence forward and the managers decisions are way off the standard needed.

Mind you last year we didnt win a game in january. Then we went on a run from Feb till may winning all our games. If we can repeat that then that will do us.
