Christ. Where do you start with that? I don't often get angry or over-react to wins or defeats, but I'm angry today. Not because we lost, that can happen anytime. It's how we lost. We seemed to play as if it was a testimonial game at times. Stones and Fernandinho aside, very few come out from that with credit. Several players need to take a long hard look at themselves. Hopefully that is a reminder to everyone that the league isn't done and it's a kick up the arse that we could have done without. Let's hold our hands up, learn from that shocker, consign it to the dustbin and then move on.

I did not think we were that bad, especially second half, but the lack of a quality striker shows in this type of game

You haven’t been missed.

Theres quite a lot to be happy about this season so forgive some of us for not falling apart just because we lost a game.

Haha, probs not as I didn't post much anyways cant be arsed spending all day on here. Didn't you agree that its stupid to make alot of changes in defence? Especially when they are not good enough anyway.

100% there is so much to be happy about i don't think we are disputing that, just think we got it wrong and its been a frustrating day.

Also worth pointing out that Bayern (who have injuries already) have made 6 changes today and are drawing 0-0 with a mid-table side at half time.

It happens but it was the right thing to do.

In fairness though, they do quite well in the CL, we don't

With respect, Bill makes it quite clear every week that he would play the strongest line up and make no changes even if it meant the same 11 for the whole season.
That kind of thinking is so outdated I’m shocked anybody still comes out with it.

not true. but SEVEN changes , one of which is Mendy is unforgivable.

It’s a fair point mate but we do this and then we still end up having to throw the cavalry on albeit not KDB or Dias. For me you get yourself into a winning position then pull them off. Im Probably just pissed off about the result but imo it was the wrong side to start

Nah I’m pissed off also but we’ve got two huge games now back to back, in which our best 11 will mostly be playing full 90 in each. If he was to give anyone a break it was today.

Shit happens unfortunately, today was a freak game. Win against BVB and this will all be forgotten. 3 wins from 6 needed for the title, no need to flap at this point.

I'd agree with that back four but Cancelo actually was our top ranked player today on whoscored.com so perhaps he did more good things in the game than people think.

If that’s the case then the algorithms in the website are seriously flawed. By the standards he has set this season he was piss poor. Schoolboy stuff at the first and prone to giving away needless fouls.

Like Walker his concentration levels are his Achilles heel, too many brain farts today and his attacking play was sloppy.

Then us copying their blueprint to rest players and focus on the Champions league makes sense then?

Hopefully mate, i was ok with that side today.........i wasn't ok with the players performance though, that's on them imo, not Pep

The Scousers still putting out full strength team, have they not got a mid-week fixture?

They're on the verge of going out of the Champions League. The League is looking like their best route back into it.

So they're prioritising their most important fixtures, just like us.
