Liverpool crashed out of two cup competitions in 5 days

Liverpool FC crashed out of two cup competitions in mere 4 days - Sat: FA Cup, Tue: Carling Cup, in an absolutely unimpressive fashion at Anfield.

While the fans and the club are still reeling over the defeat on Saturday, Rafa choose to play a formation that gave Arsenal the superiority in the midfield which leads to a riot scoring run by the brilliant Brazilian - Julio Baptista. Never has any single player in history except Michael Thomas that destroyed the Liverpool players and their confidence in our backyard. Not that i detest Arsenal, in fact, they are my second favourite team but the Reds at home with a horrible lineup from Rafa just spell trouble for this season with only Champions League to play. I do not have much confidence in Rafa's ability and in the players' commitment to excellence anymore, too much hope is pinned on this Rafa revolution but it is just a hype after all. Any good team must carry themselves forward with consistencies and at least some dignity not to drop 6 goals behind. Jerzey Dudek is again terrible, once again at least Rafa is right to drop this Polish keeper to the second choice at Anfield.
