I am an old man. Trust me, we are in the relegation bunfight.
And after the 'performance' last night, which reminded me of the first half against Arsenal, we seem devoid of ideas, lack confidence, passion and any tactical nouse. We don't defend, can't mount a telling threat and have no guile or guts in midfield.
It is not all about the players is it? Most of those failings are the job of management to resolve.
I am not even convinced about the injury list excuse in that the youngsters have been excellent at times. Better than the senior players. Ok I miss Petrov more than I thought I would as he is a protector for our suddenly porous back line.
Sorry, but Houllier has lost it for me. Already, and I supported the appointment.
We will be struggling to avoid the drop and I am not convinced we will.
