MAC33 Â Â 10 #1 Posted October 22, 2014 All I can say about this match is when the super energetic and skilful Lallana replaced a very un-energetic Balotelli at half time......Liverpool looked a million times better! Â Makes a huge difference when you play with 11 men and not 10 or 10 and a bit. Â Lallana is the only Liverppol player that would stand a chance of getting into the Real first eleven. Â His energy level and heart is amazing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Stan Tamudo   10 #3 Posted October 23, 2014 (edited) Balotelli is a very wealthy guy for being a very average player,teams don't move great players on like he has been.  It's the reason I've fallen out with football. I can't understand how a moral imbecile earns £100k a week for not being very good at his job.

I can't understand how a moral imbecile earns £100k a week for not being very good at his job.  Got to agree but the clubs are to blame for paying this money.Man City got shut because he wasn't good enough then Liverpool pay all that for him to replace probally the best striker the PL has had in years.You drop that clanger in any other job and you wouldn't have a job.

So Madrid did take their foot of the peddle making it easier for Liverpool. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

So Madrid did take their foot of the peddle making it easier for Liverpool.  Apart from that,some woeful finishing and casualness around the edge of the penalty area prevented Real scoring another 3 in the second half.

taxman   12 #7 Posted October 23, 2014 I see Mario is now being pilloried for exchanging shirts at half time.  "Why is it always him?" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
tzijlstra   11 #8 Posted October 23, 2014 Wake up call for Super Mario. I still think he can be a great striker, he just really, really needs to grow up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

ukdobby   224 #10 Posted October 23, 2014 Wake up call for Super Mario. I still think he can be a great striker, he just really, really needs to grow up.  Can't agree with you there,he's been given numerous chances with enough clubs,I don't think he's even in the Italian squad now,he's got on by being a bit odd.

tzijlstra   11 #11 Posted October 23, 2014 Can't agree with you there,he's been given numerous chances with enough clubs,I don't think he's even in the Italian squad now,he's got on by being a bit odd.  Someone who scores close to 40% of the games he plays is a valuable striker, especially if they have done so for clubs like Man City, Inter and AC Milan (he scored near enough 50% for AC Milan in a season where they were struggling pretty hard).  I get why Rodgers brought him in for the money he did, it was worth taking the risk - don't forget that Suarez firmly fits into the 'bit odd' category as well.
