"Zidane signs for Liverpool"

Well it certainly looks like that, I just switched on to watch the Burnley v 'Pool game....

In comes a tame cross from the Burnley winger and there he is, Traore with a Zidane like turn and into his own net....

There's only one Jimmy! :)

Rafa is an experienced manager though and he will have other people around him making suggestions I'm sure. There really is no excuse for this. (BTW, I'm studying so I didn't see the match, I'm just going on expectations).

I agree that the more experienced players should have been on at the start in an effort to secure the victory. I know the excuse is to save them, especially from injury but weighed against that is the unthinkable possibility that we would go out of the cup tonight.

Okay, so I am a Liverpool supporter but I'll have to admit that after having the team line-up texted to me I didn't even recognise four of the players!

Of course, this would all be a moot point if Liverpool had actually won. Everyone would be saying "well he didn't need to play a stronger team and made the right decision to rest the core players"

:)

Bah, Man Utd still deserve to be utterly massacred.

Whatever happens to any other team, that will always stand.

He put out a similar team when they knocked spurs out of the carling cup though didnt he?

He guess he just had faith in them. Not anymore though!

Bit of inexperiance by Rafa I reckon.

I was furious with Fergie when he did the same against Exeter but at least that it was at Home game. With your game being at Burnley and with the fans behind Burnley, I would have started with some of the senior players, make it cormfortable and then take them off.

I mean what else do Liverpool have to play for for Rafa to drop so many of the players? 'Pool should be targeting the likes of the FA Cup as possible cup success, he plays his first team in the carling cup and second string in the FA Cup - it doesn't make much sense.

Way to pull the rug out from under our feet! How can we possible take the skit out of Man U fans after that :(

Plus I can guarantee that tomorrow at 7.30 am (give or take 5 mins) I will receive a telephone call from a friend who will pass on very insincere commiserations - because he's an Everton fan.

I'll not be able to go out in public again and as for going to the local pub? Forget it!

OMG! would have loved to have seen this but was working.

Liverpool are out of the FA Cup, not a good week for them! Rafa did a Fergie and rested several players.

The Liverpool whipping boys entertain Bournmouth in the next round. It was a great performance by Burnley and the better team won in the end.

Burnley have won 1-0.

[comic book guy] Best own goal ever! [/comic book guy]

Traore's black though. And he isn't bald.
