What fucks me off more than anything is that in BOTH games we were the better team. We had the better chances. We had MORE chances. We bossed possession.

ARRGHHH


Have we see the same games? I think that England in both games lost becaus the Tifosi and the Urus were the better teams.


Bullcrap.

Vs Uruguay we had over 60% of the possession. We had more shots. More shots on target. We were the better team, we just lacked in finishing.

Uruguay won because Suarez latched on to a stupid error from Gerrard. Suarez is literally one of the best in the world. They didnt win because they were a better team. They won because they got the lucky bounce/ error from SG.

As I recall the bolded could have been applied to both goals. 

Again not defending our defending (ha) but even if we do go out in the groups, for my money there's far more positives to take from this than 2010.

Why is everybody now sucking on Suarez? Sure he's great, but I doubt he is in the Top 5 strikers. This WC has just been awesome

You're kidding, right? Suarez is arguably the best in the world.

Maybe it’ll turn out that those who disagree with you actually have a solid grasp of the facts. There’s a slight possibility that, after all, you’re the one who’s wrong.

Uruguay nomá carajooooooo!!!!!

I agree. all those statistics don't mean jack if you don't put the ball in the net. 

Gerrard screwed up against Chelsea and now again against Uruguay. I am not blaming him, no one is perfect. Against teams with quality strikers possession means little.

Ask Jose.

Suarez is such a great player. Really hope Liverpool can build a squad good enough for CL.

The guy is fantastic. Just needs a team at his level.


You cannot have a team at Suarez's level. That's impossible, you cannot find 10 other players like him.

The best you can do is build a very good team around him.


Of course not.  I know it's almost impossible.

I meant a team capable of facing RM, Barcelona, Bayern and other.     Suarez is brilliant, but the rest of LFC squad is made of 5/10 players.

I think Ibrahimovic is better but he play for the wrong Nation, Ronalo has the same problem.



Totally missed the Uruguay - England match due to gym. I wasn't expecting this outcome, how did England play?

I think Ibra is pretty much the only striker you can argue is better than Suarez. They're both incredible.
