This is a big blow as sakho , glen Johnson and joe alen had join a new list of the injury crisis rocking Liverpool. already , left back Enrique , striker sturridge , another left back flanagan , and Gerrard had been side line earlier for injury thus bringing the total nos of Liverpool team player to eight ( 8 ) that are injured. . I weep for my club.. Liverpool 8 players of the first 11 team are now on injury list. how many players remaining ?

Premier League:
Chelsea see off
Liverpool as Eto'o
strikes killer blow
By Chris Harvey. Last Updated:
29/12/13 10:01pm
BEST OF THE MATCH
Man of the match - Eden
Hazard.
The Belgian was at the heart of
most of Chelsea's most incisive
moves and was rewarded for a
creative display with a superb
goal.
Goal of the match:
Hazard's fabulous curling right-
footer left Simon Mignolet in the
Liverpool goal with no chance.
Save of the match:
Simon Mignolet may have been
at fault for Samuel Eto'o's
winner but he was at his very
best to deny Belgian teammate
Hazard early in the first half.
Talking point 1:
Should Liverpool have had at
least one second half penalty
after Luis Suarez went down
under challenges from John
Terry and Eto'o?
Talking point 2:
Were Chelsea lucky to finish with
game with 11 men? Oscar
appeared fortunate to escape
with just a yellow card for flying
into a two-footed challenge on
fellow Brazilian Lucas Leiva
during stoppage time.

Webb and big matches...IT WILL
NEVER WORK...Oscar should've
seen red, Terry should've seen red,
at least pen. to Liverpool....3 huge
mistakes by Howie...that influence
the game. the man hasn't changed
a bit since ruining the WorldCup
final in 2010...

Why all the negativity from so
many Liverpool fans? Your
manager and team are doing an
excellent job. You had the absolute
Christmas from Hell and you
fought gallantly. You should be
proud of your team's achievements
so far this season. You've done the
hard part already. Now you have
Man City, Arsenal, $helsea,
Everton, Tottenham [5-0] Hotspurs
all to come to Anfield. Get behind
your team because they deserve it
and keep Man Utd out of the top
4. simples. Cheer up me lads n'
lasses.

lets all be honest we lost away to
Man City , but unlike Arsenal, Man
Utd and no dout City will beat
Chelsea, we never got battered
( lost by 1 goal), We lost away to
Arsenal but didn't get battered, we
lost Away to Chelsea ( lost by 1
goal ) but never got battered, we
won away at Spurs , and Everton
couldn't beat us at goodison, so I
don't think we have done badly at
probably the hardest 5 away
games we will face and we have
had some bad referee mistakes
along the way

If you want to talk about penalties
not being given, you should
concentrate on Skrtel. He's
consistently committing numerous
penalty offences through holding in
every game, yet he hasn't been
penalised once.

From a lfc fan well done Chelsea
good 1st half display and typical
Chelsea shut out in the 2nd. On a
lfc point of view I am still pleased
being 5th and only 6 points off top
after playing Arsenal, City, Chelsea,
spuds, Newcastle and Everton all
away. A good run now and we
have a real chance of top 4. Not a
bad 2013 in all well done Brendan
and the lads.

Our bench is too weak. Brenden
shouldn't complain about the
depth of our squad, look at what
he brought in; Allen, Aspas &
Alberto, Borino & Asaidi they are
not good enough for the
premiership or for the future. We
need quality now to challenge for a
top four spot

i'm not going to comment on
possible penalties or fouls. just
that i expected us to lose these
two games. now it can only get
better, besides all the top clubs
have to still come to anfield and
who knows, maybe the gods will
cut us some slack.

As a Liverpool fan, the biggest
positive I take from losing the past
2 games was that they were
actually played during the busy
Christmas period in succession. If
we had to play two easy(" must
win " games instead we could
have dropped point due to
tiredness and that will have hurt
even more, because there is every
chance that we would have lost
against City&Chelsea away
anyway, so now lets focus on a
good run and climb up the table
once more. still a long way.

Chelsea Deserved to Win today and
taking out the Poor Referee
Decisions that could have gone for
either Team today, who created the
more chances, controlled the Game
and Scored the Most Goals?

Suarez didn't get sent off last
season when he bit someone so i
don't see how Liverpool fans can
complain too much

I'm an avid Liverpool fan and I will
say that I totally agree with you. I
thought playing Luiz in the middle
today won Chelsea the game.
Liverpool need a proper power
house midlielder to boss games
and teams like this, another SG
would be very useful! Other than
that a credible performance.
Sterling was awesome.
tylar says 29/12/13 8:14pm
As a lfc fan it pains me to watch
my team in two tough away games
which we both played well in and
get nothing from any of the
fixtures.i know sometimes its just
football, but we have been let
down again by the referee officials
in both games Im not taking
anything away from city and
Chelsea but we have had some
very wrong decisions go against us
lately and im hoping at the end of
the season they will not cost us in
are hunt for top 4 success.going
back to liiverpool matters lads of
lfc you have done brilliant job for
how thin are squad is at the
moment and im confident you can
fire us back into champions league
next season with a little of
reinforcement hopefully in
January.ynwa!!!.

Looking at our xmas fixtures, 6/12
points isn't bad at all considering
we were away to Chelsea, City &
Spurs. Had a few decisions gone
our way we could have beaten City
and had a point against Chelsea. 3
wins from 3 before the Merseyside
derby are vital if we are going to
continue to challenge for Champs
League. Don't think we played our
best today. Allen was again
ineffective (despite doing the
simple stuff right), Johnson was
dreadful (would like to see Kelly or
Flano have a go at RB) and Sakho
never looks comfortable on the ball
(I think he is a decent defender
though). Unfortunately our squad
just isn't strong enough so
hopefully we can get some new
faces in during the transfer
window. Stevie, Sturridge and
Enrique coming back should inject
some more life into our team
which unsurprisingly is looking a
bit tired after the Xmas break!

Chelsea deserved the win.
Liverpool's defensive frailties and
lack of squad depth was exposed
again by a top 4 side. Missing
Stevie G badly. Glen Johnson is
having his worst season made
worse by the injury to Enrique.
Don't understand the Smith
decision! Let's refocus on the top
4 starting with our next game.

The smith decision was simply to
show everyone i need players by
Rodgers! A foolish decision.
tejveer says 29/12/13 8:01pm
Why all the panic? At one point
Arsenal were 5-7points ahead of
us for league and we clawed it
back. 7 of the top 8teams we have
played away... So let's see how
they do when they come to Anfield.
Chelsea played well and deserved
three points. We didn't create
enough scoring opportunities
today and against the big teams
Suarez needs a little more support.
The first touch and passing let LFC
down today. Anyway, let's put a
run together and wins some
matches we shall what happens
come end of the season. Top 4 is
what we want, but not to be rude
some fans saw us on top of the
league and got greedy, raised
expectations and now are
disappointed we aren't firmly in
the title race.
