Hi eds,
Just wondering with the performance against West Ham can you see BR sticking with Lovren or do you think he'll give Sakho the nod?
As a side note I took my 5yo to West Ham, first game!! But never have I been so embarrassed of the negativity inside Anfield, the talk around me before the match had even started was tearing apart players and BR (ok maybe most of the points raised about Him were true) then during the game it went from bad to worse, I appreciate it was a frustrating game but how can we expect to inspire our team if all we seem to do is get on their backs, that's not the example I want to inspire in a young Liverpudlian!
{Ed002's Note - I really cannot predict what players he will chose for the next game.
The team should not need to be inspired, they are professional sportsmen getting paid a decent amount of money. If they need inspiration in order to get on and do their job they are really not for the top leagues in Europe.}

its not negative its desperation. never since the heady days of rafa has there been much to sing about. downwards since he went. need a manager who will give you the belief that you are going to cheer a team that already has most teams beat before they arrive. not in a long time we now seem to be a soft touch despair mate.

2 seasons ago there was a lot to sing about the atmosphere was great in the run in.

don't you mean indecent amount ed?

I see your point Ed, they are pros getting paid very well, but they're also mortals just like you and me. They have to be effected by either a positive or negative atmosphere toward them, otherwise how does anyone explain a team's home form compared to their away form? (Generally that is)
{Ed001's Note - actually it is usually based on knowing how the ball runs better, which is why away teams train on the pitch at the stadium if they can.}

At this level, you need a team of leaders. If they can't motivate themselves then they are out of their depth.

Yeah I am always fascinated by players when they just don't seem bothered and people give them leeway when they're caught drinking smoking etc. Yes they are mortal but they are paid obscene amounts of Money to compensate the fact that it (should) be a tough life, not to just enhance the craic they can have acting the idiot in their fast New toys. I absolutely despise a strict diet and the gym even more so but offer me 80k a week + and yeah I think I would be able to push myself to go and work hard everyday!
