People are just unbelievable we just got beat away at reading ok it's a bad defeat but reading were going to win sooner rather than later just happen to do it against us just like qpr will against someone else but facts are we're a better side than we were last season and I think we will end up with 10-15 pts more than last season we should probably have a few more points on the board as well when you look at the Newcastle and Fulham games which we should of won but that's football we will loose games this season just like everyone else like Norwich beating utd arsenal w.brom beating Chelsea do I need to say more yes it was an opportunity to gain points on the top 4 but I am happy so far plus we look like we have more consistency than arsenal Tottenham we should aim for top 4 based on what I have seen so far even Chelsea look vulnerable

And the RedS winning. This weekend has thrown up some surprising results and we've no right to assume we'll beat little old Reading who, as you rightly say, were going to win eventually. You have to earn your victories in this league, it's not just a case of turning up and expecting to win because that won't happen. Credit to Reading, their victory was richly deserved even if we should have been out of sight by half time, we didn't do enough in the 2nd half to merit the victory. But 5th in the league after nearly a third of the season isn't too bad and we could and should have been much better off. December will shape our destiny this season, if we're still up there come January then there's no way we won't strengthen in the window and push on in the second hlaf as we usually do.

Easy decision on TV tonight blues, sack match of the day off and watch THE ONE on Sly 1, awesome film and not as if worth bothering watching a dismal display of football on MOTD

Degsy

Sounds like a kopite to me this. Come on Degsy, don't give up mate. We are still going to win the league. You have to be happy tonight, losing to Reading isn't that bad, after all I expect them to finish at least 5th.

Mike

Kung Fu poo. Get a grip Degsy!

why is it Liverpool play there best young player, who played a blinder and we loan ours out. What a chance wasted. Now stand by for the red slaging.

I agree some of Mr Moyes decisions is mind numbing to say the least.

Because Barkley is nowhere near as talented as Sterling.

To be fair to Moyes, Sterling is a much better talent than Barkley. So it is easy for Rodgers to play him.

Mike

Barkley is better than Sterling imo

Mike you are a pessimistic sod, i've read 3 comments from you so far today and each one has been miserable to read for us blues.. Cut some slack!

toffee jack

The poster above my first post, agrees with me that Sterling is better than Barkley, but I know, lets have a go at Mike for having an opinion. I am not asking for people to agree with me. If you think that Barkley is better than Sterling then fair enough. But there must be a reason why Sterling is in Liverpools first team and has played for England, and Barkley is playing for Sheffield Wednesday.

Mike

That would be me Mike and I think your rationale is perfectly self-explanatory. I'm with you on this one mate. He's obviously not ready for the 1st team as Moyes wouldn't have loaned him out if he was. He's not proven anything yet and I wouldn't be the least bit surprised if he ends up just like Rodwell, unfulfilled potential

Well you have barkley, who is being made learn his trade in the lower leagues and and grow into future star with a head on his shoulders!

And then you have sterling whos played a handful of games and is holding his club to randsom over his contract already!

I would say as a footballer Sterling is better, but I would rather have Barkley because he doesn't have an attitude problem and he respects his own manager...............

TC

Barcley will get more caps for england he is a better prospect both are good why compare just enjoy i wouldnt swap barcley for anyone in is age group

Never top four contenders if we cant finish off the likes of no-win until today Reading-enough chances to have won three games in the first half, Osman,Jelavic,Pienaar all guilty of wasting chances-not good enough I am afraid, Albion look like genuine contenders for the fourth spot now and we've only ourselves to blame.Also Seamus ,although good attacking will always cost us at the back and unless this is addressed the RS will soon overtake us. Gutted and despondent.

Why aren't you all having a go at this post. Oh yeah, it doesn't say Mike at the bottom does it?

Mike

I think you need to get over this mike. if you would just make a genuine positive comment for once people might start to respect you.

utter shock game should av been done at half time gutted we lost to rubbish a poor team

take a bow Coleman fans - still at least he's good value for 60k hey and one day with enough games and experience we may get a million for him - having cost us tens of millions on a champs league place - where's hibbo and gibbo FFS!!

it'll be a different story once we get these two and mirallas back - shows what a gulf there is though due to champs league money - we get three injuries and we're struggling to put out a quality team

felli will be off soon - but at least we'll be getting value for money off coleman hey boys?

Agreed. Headless chicken, naïve, dull. That's what you get for 60k these days, not an awful lot. For every assist there's 5 mistakes. Abysmal all round

Another terrible challenge by coleman.
moyes needs to f**k him off ASAP as he is clearly out of his depth.no football brain at all.

once again wasted chances, now its 1 1 and more points will be dropped

Everton team today CONFIRMED
Howard
Coleman jageilka Heitinga Baines
Naismith hitzlsperger Osman pienaar
Fellaini
Jelavic

Bench Mucha Oviedo Distin Duffy vellios juinor Kennedy

Really pleased to see hitzlsperger in the starting line up, he can't do worse than Neville to be honest and pleased to see Kennedy on the bench too, would like to see him get on at some point even just for 5 minutes.
BlueClarkey

Disgraceful officiating again against us. That's 2 pens we should've had

I'm really getting fed up of the poor officiating we're getting week in week out. It's cost us 6 points this season and it's cost us a penalty today. Now, I don't want Moyes going and putting refs under pressure and blatantly intimidating them like SAF does every time Man U lose, but maybe a little go here and there will do.

BitterBlue

I'm more concerned about our performances than the refs. We don't score enough and concede too easily. Outside of Utd we haven't played anyone either - 2 of the top 8. We look better to watch but we've got a tough winter approaching if we don't improve quickly

Have a look at Jamie Vardy for Leicester

Was chatting to some Fleetwood lads when they came to play Rochdale (my sorry neck of the woods) and they mentioned him.

So I had a look 25yrs but looks good.
