"Which begs the question WHY didnt Ings start beside Benteke???"

someone made a dumb decision and it didn't happen. Maddening

We beat the mighty Villa and it gives Rodgers an opportunity to let off steam. He would have been better keeping his mouth shut and letting the results do the talking.

I got pulled up for saying we'd see a big improvement with Studges return. I know it's too early to say this is the case, I struggle to see the problem with relying on the return of your most influential player to kick start a recovery

City were looking unstoppable and have fallen apart since Silva's injury. One injury can make a big difference if it's your best player.

We played as well as we did against Norwich. That result killed him a bit because we'd be third or something.

Good result, still conceded two though, and for me it's all about the derby.

he knows it's start winning regularly or leave

showing some cajones is probably for the best as it'll help the players confidence. being a shy recluse wouldn't do him any good or send the message of strength needed

Do you think Sturridge would have scored if he had played lone striker? Which begs the question WHY didnt Ings start beside Benteke???
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Maybe Ings wasn't ready. You have no idea what goes on behind the scenes.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

Why does it beg that question, Sturridge and Benteke are different players. Idiot.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Idiot?? U must have some issues pal. Its irrelevant that theyre different players. We should have been playing 2 up top from day 1. There was no service into benteke so i cannot comprehend why he didnt have Ings with him.

He kept his mouth shut whilst we weren't winning, just got on with trying to turn things around. We're starting to show a bit of form, so why shouldn't he say what he thinks? No cliches, generic quotes, just his real thoughts. Give him a break.

Given that Coutinho missed a chance against Norwich that would have left us two points off the top of the table after a fifth of the season then maybe Brendan has a point.

October's games will tell us far more than today.

I may be wrong, but I think Rodgers said Ings would need some time before he was ready to start games?? If true, he's done the right thing in holding him back, rather than throw him in and potentially ruin his confidence??

hey term

wasn't about today and forget about the match thread

i thought we were playing sunday, anyways great to have studge back and get a result

chin up lads, BR may just get us back firing with his best player in the team.

Hi PranksForgetting what day we're playing

Sounds like you've had the kind of day I've had - took the daughter and four of her friends ice skating for her birthday. Stressful
----------------------------------------------------------------------
i promised my kid a dog if he got 5's on his SATS and he did, so today we finally got around to it

the kid is over the moon
----------------------------------------------------------------------
It might his dog now,but if he's anything like my kids the dog will be a good as yours in 6 months.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
my kids a diamond saan, and he has been made well aware of his responsibilities and that its his job
----------------------------------------------------------------------
He may well be a diamond now saan,that doesn't mean he won't become an idle teenager. Two of my kids go to grammar school (other 2 are still in primary). I thought all my worries about them receiving a good education we're sorted.One is brilliant,the other is a lazy mare who thinks she hasn't got to try,and neither take the dog for a walk.

Results are the only things that get you the sack.

Brendan got himself under pressure by winning about 5 out of 20 games, comparable to our worst runs under Souness, Dalglish and Hodgson in the last 25 years.

If he turns that around it will be results that save him, but one win with 3 goals scored still leaves a fair bit to go yet.

BR makes comparison of loses with United, City, Ars eholes, Spurs but fails to mention that we are 5, 4,3, and 1 point(s) behind them.......He should talk of total points......which is the bottom line.

I have just got in from walking the kids dog.

Yeah, we will pick up its poo......feed it. When you hear this from the kids, you know they are lying

The thing that irks me in all of this is the 'we're only 5 points off the top' comment. We've only played 7 bloody games. That magnifies to about 25 points off the top come May. I've no idea when that became acceptable?
----------------------------
It's just a fact that people are stating, you're twisting it to make it look worse than it is. If a team draws their first game then they're two points off the top, which would equate to a 76 point gap in May. So I'm not exactly sure what your point is. Unless you're just moaning for the sake of moaning......

we've had a horror start to the season and we're only 2 points off our season target of 4th (and 2 points off 3rd as well). I'm very happy and relieved.

I may even do a happy dance

Target of 4th .....
You have turned into Arsenal
