  Terrible second half performance and a even worst first half !!
  
  Marseille deserved a draw there at Anfield , if not a win !
  
  Liverpool was passing mostly to no-man's land , allowing opponent to take possession and create a bit of chances ! We were back to our old habits of long ball , square passing , back-to-goal stuff .....and can someone explain to me , why is it the Liverpool players kept passing the ball into the congested area ? Why is it they kept passing the ball into another guarded player ?
  
  Tactical ? Opponent's weaknesses ? Or is it if they don't do according to the Le Boss' instruction , they'll be drop the next game ?
  
  Why is Heskey , the Han-zi (sweet potato) doing there ?
  
  And...please , can someone take Owen on-loan for the rest of the season ? And by the end of the season , get him for free ! And plus a purchase with purchase deal ....pay only one pound for Heskey !
  
  Both were to me , just pathetic !

  well...
  
  what to do, sometimes we wish it was the Liverpool of the Rush-Dalglish-Hansen era where we got the glory n all... now long time
  Pool fans like me have 2 content with the somewhat dismal show
  they have been putting up 4 the past few seasons.... oh well...
  there's always something at the end of the rainbow ... hope it will
  be good ....
  
  Anyways, u'll never walk alone .......

  This further implies that Gerard Houllier HAS TO GO.
  
  We need a fresh figure in charge.He's been there for close to 5 years and I think he has done the best he could already.He should learn to leave when it's time,else it could turn ugly.Liverpool FC has never sacked a manager before,but things can change.
  
  Fortunately,I did not wake up in the middle of the night to watch that crap on display.I say,for the sake of the club,Marseille knock Liverpool out of the UEFA Cup.

  I have seen the second half of the match.
  
  I thought Liverpool have played well in the front.
  
  But, they sort of panicked when their opponents take the game to them.
  
  Hope they dun sell Dudek as he have not been playing for the last few games.
  
  Missing a few games in a row = potential of post-out.

  [size=large]Ironically , without the grafitti , without the love letter , we can't perform !
  
  How I wish someone do something to GH everytime we take on an opponent !
  
  A draw and conceded an away goal for Marseille , smells trouble for Pool ! Marseille just keep a clean sheet , Liverpool is doom ! And i thought their defensive quality is not that bad according to repors !
  
  True ! We lose this Cup , the 4th placing and likely......GH will be at risk !

  This is what GH might be think 'Never mind.. its a good result... we always do better away.... dont worry.. Owen will score some day.... I will keep him no matter wat.... we will win.. no worries..'

  After being booed in Anfield for touching the ball every time, the last person laughing will be the Marseille Goalkeeper, Mr Fabian Barthez.
  
  I believe he will be very honoured to keep a clean sheet vs Liverpool.
  
  Unless Liverpool can come up with a free kick, corner kick or penalty, a direct shot in goal is not that possible.
  
  After losing to Marseille and kana kick out of UEFA Cup, GH will say " My players played their heart out, but just dun have the luck. Now we can concentrate in getting the 4th place in EPL."
