I ask this not because of tonights game nor am I suddenly jumping on a bandwagon but does Rafa have what it takes to win a Premier League ?
I am seriously starting to doubt it..

Pretty gutting there.

Lucas had been one of our standout players ands then he goes and does that, unbelievable.

We were playing well, coasting. Hard to see us winning the title now, plenty of games left though.

that's it - Rafa has to go

Will you catch a grip man.

I can't wait for you to try and defend his decisions tonight

[GalwayBayBoy]

Torres off and he puts on a midfielder.

Then goes 1-1 and he takes off Gerrard for Keane. Fair enough it wasn't one of Gerrard's better games but if you need a goal you don't take him off no matter what.

Daft.

And Lucas I swear I would tie him to a block of cement and dump him in the Mersey. Can't tackle without fouling.

[RedandGreenSniper]

Gerrard off! WTF is he thinking. Crazy, absolutely crazy. Gets what he deserves, can't understand him at all and can't see how that sort of decision making can be defended

[The Real Laoislad]

Only for Spurs last minute goal against us we could have be the first team to go thru the whole season unbeaten and still not win the league

If Benitez studies the game as much as everyone says, then he needs to study this one - why are his  sides (and i use the word 'sides') drawing so many games. It's been a theme of his management - too many draws. Go up 1-0 but it's never enough to hold on to.  A shot at the title is slipping further away with each game.

And Dirk, if you do get a chance in the box, try not to handle the ball ffs.

Sin mar a bhfuil lads.

Cheers Rafa. Your cowardly tactics have gotten their just desserts several times this season, and come May we'll be saying "Oh but if we had beaten Stoke and Fulham and Blah de blah blah".

[Carmen Stateside]

No excuse for that tonight! Rafa solely to blame.  Surely you start your strongest team , wonder what Chelseas line up was tonight?
Hope you all seen enough of Kuyt tonight, man makes me vomit!

Ok well I wasn't referring in tonight in particular but Reira on for a very ineffective Torres, push Babel up fair enough.

Kuyt on for Yoissi, no problem, plays one unbelievable ball.

Keane on for Gerrad, ok not too happy about that. He was shockingly sloppy in the second period, hopefulyl Hound was counting the amount of times he was giving away like he was with Kuyt the other day. Its going more offensive, but he shouldn;t have taken him off.

But in general we are in the last 16 of the Champions League and two points off the top and you are calling for the manager to be sacked, incredible.

Nooooooooo!  Rafa for a 10 year contract! 

[AZOffaly]

As a matter of interest, how many points are we better off this season than last, in relation to our own performance. I see f*ck all improvement, except that United and Chelsea were worse than usual in the first few months. Liverpool will finish +10 behind United.

[corn02]

Kuyt was on for what, 10 minutes?

One ball to Gerrard was sublime, handled in the box error and the man makes you vomit? Wise up.

Have strongly defended Rafa in the past but I have little, if any, faith left.

His decisions at key times in past month have been baffling. Looking for a 1-0 or appearing happy with a draw. Far too cautious to win a Premiiership. Handed the baton to the Manc's big time in last few months and heaped pressure on his own team by his tactics.

I really don't know how we move on from here. Bad, bad times from such a strong first half of season.

Gerrard off   That must have given Wigan such a lift. Alonso left on bench, esp when you looking to hold the ball and a 1-0.

Gutted.

In Rafe we trust......i think not anymore.

[EC Unique]

Un-defendable management c**k ups cost the win. Got what he deserved and will not be in Liverpool next season. (I hope he is) What now for Keane?
