"Not so impressed Jonjo yesterday with your performace rather anyone's. I'm sure coates wld have made a difference like everton second half when he mastered felliani and big bullys. Why do we have a defender in the team with 6.6" - for benchwarming ?"
"Must be a slow news day.
Liverpool are rubbish, we've been that for 3 years now. There's no direction at the club. I'm fed up of it all. I want Rodgers to succeed, but sometimes I get lingering thoughts in my head that he's out of his depth, and Kenny should of been given at least another HALF a season."
"IEatAABatteries Are you joking Kenny for another half season ? - I'm sure none wld have signed even contract extensions. The problem with BR is he does not motivates the team enough to earn victories. They played well or atleast tried to get a goal when we were 2-1 but once the third goal is taken they lost hope. If fergie sees such a thing he'll come and kick the players out off the pitch"
"King kenny and steve slarke were doin a much better job during their reign. BR cannot manage LFC, we beat stoke away wiv kenny and suarez came on to score his debut goal. Stoke outplayed us BIGG TIME, get a worthy manager."
"AT 2-1 DOWN YESTERDAY WE HAD THE CHANCES TO GET BACK IN THE GAME BUT AS USUAL, LIKE LAST SEASON UNDER KENNY WE DIDN'T TAKE THEM. THE SOONER WE ADD GOAL SCORERS TO THE TEAM THE BETTER. POOR DEFENDING AND FINISHING LET US DOWN YESTERDAY. THE ROLLER COASTER SEASON CONTINUES. "
"Jonjo is one of our best young players, support him and the team. Yes the Reds lost yesterday, which team has won at Britannia this season?!? It is so frustrating to hear the supporters one week behind the team and BR and the next calling for their heads. Does YNWA mean anything anymore. Support the REDS!"
"Well done Jonjo! Think it's harsh having a go at a young lad who has been asked to play in numerous different positions.I'm sure he would admit himself he didn't have a great game yesterday but that's no reason to react in this way.When people start getting personal,it's a step too far.Grow up"
"all of u fans calling for big signings must first understand the big stars no nothing abt rogers dont trust him with his skills n thus cant come to liverpool get rid of him benitez will convince them"
"GT-LFC- I kinda agree with you. Players should get criticised when not playing well but equally shouldn't get abuse. They just require a kick up the backside so to speak. The same applies with people and their constanst hatred/dislike of the so called misfits in other words 'Kenny's Bristish signings'."
"ANI RD, NAIL ON THE HEAD !! WHY DO WE HAVE TO LOOK FOR SOMEONE TO BLAME ANYWAY ? HOW ABOUT SOME CONSTRUCTIVE CRITICISM INSTEAD OF RIPPING INDIVIDUALS TO SHREDS ? IF YOU'VE PLAYED FOOTBALL AT ANY LEVEL SURELY YOU MUST KNOW THAT IF A PLAYER IS STRUGGLING HE NEEDS HIS HEAD LIFTING FROM TEAM MATES AND 'SUPPORTERS'."
"Ani road & LFC THRU THICK+THIN- Exactly! All my posts IMO have been constructive not asking for BR's head.I believe BR can take us forward as long as he realises we are not Swansea and need to move the ball forward quicker rather than sideways,backwards etc.It's easy to give abuse while looking at a screen(cowardly)."
"He played very badly yesterday one of worst performances I've ever seen from an LFC player, his passing was terrible as was his overall game. He definitely didn't earn his wages yesterday."
"well deserved! An encouraging attribution for Jonjo after a couple of poor displays! hope he will return to produce decent performance as he did till up the game against West Ham! YNWA Jonjo Shelvey"
"Everyone who said Kenyy did a better job are deluded. He was a legend 20 years ago. His last managerial appointment was shambles! He spent enough money to gain fourth place and spent it on Utterly useless players! BTW Shelvey is not the next Steven Gerrard the boy has nothing compared to Stevie! LFC need a miracle!"
"Does that mean he is capable of doing better than he has for the last 2 games. In my opinion he needs to improve a lot and to try harder before he can consider himself a red."
"Did none of you who are slating Shelvey see the interview with Lucas when he said how hurt he was with all the bile that came his way from supporters at first? he was strong enough to cope and come out fighting but you lot are in danger of destroying our youngsters with some of your abusive comments. Think about the effect you have on players before you rant - it's destructive."
"Red Rosie , I couldn't agree more, however I'm sure jonjo knows when he has been poor and also when he plays well! Because when he plays well and puts the effort in he is outstanding, but the last 2 games were rubbish and appeared lazy. I'm just giving my opinion. YNWA."
"It wasn't Jonjo's fault that he was woeful yesterday. His movement was poor, likewise his touch, his passing was atrocious and he was very lazy in covering up spaces or defending. How on earth did BR choose to subsute Lucas who was at least setting up play and winning some balls, leaving Jonjo to lounge all around with no purpose or impact?BR must have watched another match!What a coach?"
"LusettiGerrard: you claim that "Everyone who said Kenyy did a better job are deluded". We were on 34 points after 19 games under Kenny or Kenyy as you call him (4th place was on 36 points) and reached 2 finals. It's 25 after 19 games this season. So perhaps it is you who is deluded? At least get the basic facts right, or you just look stupid.."
"Eventhough i'm happy for Jonjo but IMO who ever makes this decisions have no clue at all, Gerrard had a perfectly good goal taken off him and Jonjo never touched the ball and he gets the goal."
"Congrats jonjo, thought u played well vs the hammers but also thought u would thrive against a big physical team like stoke. U were out of sorts, let's just put that down to a bad day at the office. "
"Jonjo you were crap yesterday and I'm your No1 fan. Own goals are also crap, they should go to the player who caused the goal. Why the need to be mean spirited, it does'nt change the result? I'll do it for you Jonjo (illoolli)!"
"Yes we have all these angst and pains regarding our beloved LFC. The ultimate blame must rest with FSG.I don't blame the players at all. Jonjo is 20 yrs old and a fantastic talent. He WILL be a star for us. His should be in a development role. So should Stirling/Suso etc. because we have not paid the big bucks to bring in top quality players we are relying on these kids to carry us...NOT FAIR"
"It's a shame that Shelvey had to delete his Twitter account after barrage of abuses from fans. Yes, he hasn't been up to the mark but savaging someone like this is downright pathetic. BR is equally responsible here when it was clear that Shelvey wasn't at his best, he should have been subbed early on."
"GT-LFC and THICK & THIN. Well said both of you. It's coming up to 60 years since i went to my first game (8th birthday treat) and all I see is the standard of "Supporters" getting lower and lower. If there was more consistency in the support, there's be more consistency in the team, well, at least it would help. STAND BY OUT MANAGER AND PLAYERS like in the old days. YNWA"
"As a fan I was not impressed by our performance against Stoke but I don't think I will help things by slating any of our players disproportionately..cntd.. "
"It quite understanding to be disappointed to lose. But it will be unrealistic if fans here was expecting us to thrash Stoke. This season they are different. rugby style defending got them most clean sheet , least goal against. Great to see SG score against them. Disppointed not to get a point from them."
"For those who still thk what will happen "if Kenny is here", I can tell you that next match will a relegation battle between us and QPR..If Kenny is still here."
"it was not shelvey's mistake that he is been played its BRs ,so it will b better for BR to rectify this try building players like morgan ,yesil by giving them proper chance contd..."
"contd..bcoz when he is giving chance to youngsters he should give fair chance to everyone ,on one side keeps playing shelvey whose is a average player as compared to other yougsters n on other side he gives only one or two games to yesil or morgan or coady. "
"The idiots that cowardly abused Jonjo through Twitter should be ashamed of themselves. Absolute, utter,lowlife disgrace.He is 20 years old for God sake."
