PHIL THOMPSON: Let’s see everyone worry about Liverpool FC rather than the other way around

18 November 2010 07:45
DRIVING back from London on Saturday night, I spent a large chunk of the journey hoping and praying as I listened to the radio.[LNB]All I wanted to hear was a sign that Liverpool were going to build up a head of steam with continuous possession and launch a comeback after going a goal behind to Stoke, so I waited. [LNB]And waited. [LNB] And waited.[LNB]Of course, nothing came. Liverpool ended up being well beaten at the Britannia Stadium and, in some ways, we find ourselves back at square one again - it is with great frustration we have not built on the win over Chelsea.[LNB]The fact we failed to rally was a cause for great alarm and it's clear that some players are failing to show the backbone that is required when you represent Liverpool.[LNB]It is also alarming that we seem to be more concerned - and this is just my opinion - with worrying about what the opposition will do to us rather than what we might do to them.[LNB]Of course, when you play Chelsea, Manchester United, Arsenal and perhaps Manchester City, you have to give them respect but the rest you should really look to get on with it and remember you are Liverpool.
