I'm starting to wonder if someone on this forum seriously wronged you, maybe banged your mother & sister and made you watch or is their another reason you're so bitter?
It's not too complicated really: I can't stand that mediocrity is slowly creeping through and being accepted in our club.
We're F***ing Liverpool FC, not Wigan. And yet in the last few years we've seen Downing, Carroll, Henderson, Adam, Allen, Borini, and the list goes on, all being wretched on the pitch. There was a time when supporters would respectfully admit that they're not good enough. Now they say "just give them time! remember Lucas!" as if every single crap player who ever kicked a football eventually becomes a world-beater.
I'm just kind of tired of it. I wouldn't mind if we would be honest and say "look, that's where we are, we can't get good players right now, so we just have to accept that this is the best we can do." At least that would be intellectually honest. But no. Instead we see Borini unable to control a first touch at all, and yet he moves one step to the left and they say "oooooh, world class movement!!" Or Jordan Henderson, who at Arsenal misplaced about 10 passes that should have been laid on a platter for Suarez and Sturridge to score, and then scores one good goal and suddenly "oh my god, now he's come good!"
I mean, no one looks at Suarez and says "well, he'll come good, just give him time." Why? because it's plain as day what he is. The others are simply not good enough, IMO. I say it respectfully and haven't gone after anyone here who disagrees, so I'm not sure why exactly they have such an issue. It's just my opinion.
