Kenny Dalglish Won't Be Delivering the Module: English Premiership 2011-12

Cisse is fantastic though

Wow I didn't realise that Everton had slipped ahead of Liverpool.

think the commentator just said that only wolves have picked up fewer points in 2012

Yup, eight points so far this year. Wouldn't entirely count out us making it nine today, but this is a huge 45 minutes coming up in terms of spirit, imagination, etc even if not.

why was Simpson holding the post like that? He was basically asking handball it. Of course he got away with it but it seems like a risky strategy

Wonderful goal, Cisse 2-0

mile offside though

Was it? I just saw them pulling us to bits.

I suppose that makes up for the handball in the first half no wait

a good two yards or so

No doubt about it. Still, seems pointless grumbling, it'd just've happened some other way instead.

Also has anyone noticed that Liverpool's hideous run of form has coincided with the return of Jamie Carragher to the starting lineup?

Since Agger's been injured the defence has collapsed entirely.

Never a red, come on! Ffs.

At least we'll get an outfielder in goal now.

What a shambles.

Lol as fuck

I would love it if we beat them now

wtf was Kenny doing?

Reina out of the Cup SF now. Marvelous.

At least Utd lost 3-0 there

wasn't quite as embarrassing as this tbf

I'll take what I can get. Clean sheet for Enrique too, get that up ye.

it's all about the cups. it's all about the cups. it's all about the cups. argh fuck it.

no Dalglish interview :(

I'd have a 'what does the future hold' poll up by now were it anyone else.

hey, look on the bright side, at least doni's gonna get a few games :D

At least we'll get an outfielder in goal now.

Think the last time that happened was Staunton going in goal in the Derby in 99/00 wasn't it. Made a great fingertip save too.

Tottenham being well outplayed here in the first 15', but I don't really trust Swansea to make sure the scoreline reflects that.

Predictably, one nice Spurs counter makes it 1-0, VdV with the goal.

Bale acting like a winger

otm

Give Bale time. He'll revert to form before you know it.

Think the last time that happened was Staunton going in goal in the Derby in 99/00

Staunton at Liverpool in 2000?

It's such a joy to see Bale bombing down the left again, Rangel can't cope with him at all. Swansea are playing too openly for an away game at WHL, would expect Rogers to do something about that at half time.

Modric is looking good as well, late miss aside. That guy could play for Swansea.

Dion Dublin keeps saying 'Bale's heels are on the chalk'.

Dublin is a bizarre 'analyst' figure, almost all his replies to questions are jovial references to his own excellence as a player.

first goal in 133 corners for spurs

We scored from one on Wednesday.

league corners

Have you had 132 today?

Kenny is now favourite to be next manager out

i posted that fact in the league thread guys. come on.

If we get one more we're back in third.

Siggurdsson is really good btw.

yeah, he has 15 goals in 47 epl and bundesliga apps

Staunton at Liverpool in 2000?

Indeed. It was after that Westerveld/Jeffers fight at Anfield and we'd used all 3 subs.

Dublin is a bizarre 'analyst' figure

he thinks that Swansea's goal was a mis-struck shot, which seems entirely wrong to me

3-1 was a more or less fair score I think but Spurs' profligacy in or near the box was almost Arsenal-esque

(xp) How old was he by then? I have no memory of Staunton going back to Liverpool.

well he was trying to keep the volley down but i don't know if the bounce was entirely intentional

nah I reckon he knew how much havoc it would cause Friedel on acct of his poor positioning

caller to 5Live just suggested, quite seriously, that Kevin Keegan should take over at LFC till the end of the season.
