Sniff

I was being sarcastic..

 

[Dodgy Gangster]

Phil's head went after they were calling his mum a fat slag the wankers

Quite the opposite actually, he had an absolutely superb 2nd half

 

[WestGorton]

Sky pointing to Taylor letting all kinds go, even the 'foul' by Haaland as it occurred. Yet this one gets VAR'd and Taylor believes he's made a clear and obvious error? He's basically shit himself there

Terrible capitulation by Taylor.

 

[Mariosfireworks]

Get fucked they are wankers

Ok mate, but you think players don't get shit every week, fans will sing shit about players and their partners and their families, most players rise above it, if foden can't handle it, then its his problem, and should never start at anfield again, as they will do it next time

 

[come-on-barney]

I disagree, foden should have ran Milner into the ground but kept passing backwards and bernado played about 5 passes that were shit under no pressure at all

Foden = tactics

 

[Groke]

Phil was very good. He drove inside because of no overlap, never gave the ball away and was easily the standout.

That was half the problem - driving inside towards Gomez when he should have been skinning Milner on the outside

 

[Bluewars]

Bernardo Silva is a special player, best player on the pitch by a mile. Bernabeu, Old Trafford, Anfield he's never overawed by the atmosphere or occasion.

Performance wise that was underwhelming, i cant understand how the best technical team in Europe are so poor from set pieces in big games.

Kdb was off it today..very poor game and a awful free kick straight into the hands of Ederson. Cancelo is always prone to those mistakes but to be honest he should never have been put in that posistion.

VAR...tactics...mistakes...dissapointed. we move anyways.

 

[chaddblue]

Fuckin shite
Pep got it wrong
Half the team never showed up
Taylor was a fuckin disgrace

 

[skillman]

Sums it up perfectly. Taylor let A LOT go tonight and that was obviously his way of refereeing the game - great - but as soon as VAR gets involved with its nitpicking tweezers, he changes his whole approach.

He let go more than what he gave that foul for. Ridiculous.

 

[hilts]

4 out 5 Premier League trophies just isn’t worth being extremely happy about for some people eh?

Who said I wasn't happy about the Premier league titles? Do you often make up scenarios in your head? Maybe go and see someone about that:-)

 

[Logan91]

Pep changing the system had a massive part to play. Wish he’d show a bit of resilience and stick to what’s been working for us when it comes to these games.

 

[eversince 76]

Bollocks. You don't achieve what we have in the past decade by being bottlers.

Read what I write. I say we bottle it vs that lot. Nothing to do with what we achieved and will achieve.

 

[Rammy Blue]

We can’t half fuck ourselves at times.

I said at half time that I was not liking how poor we looked to what was essentially long ball tactics. There is no way on fucking earth that Akanji, Dias and Ake should have been struggling against the cast of The Hobbit. As for the goal, Joao cannot, must not commit there. He has to let Salah bring the ball down and just jockey him. To commit as the last man there is bloody clueless defending.

No idea what Pep was thinking. Why you would take the most creative CM in world football and stick him wide right against a side whose midfield is almost laughable is beyond me. Gundo should never have started in a game that was always likely to be too fast for him.

It’s tactical decisions like today where we all know he could do exactly the same in a CL final (again) and fuck us. I love you Pep, but sometimes you’re too clever for your own fucking good.

This is the worst Liverpool team we have seen for years, they literally don’t have a midfield and yet our Anfield curse strikes again.

Just about nails it for me, agree with every single word. Add to that not making subs as well.

 

[Chippy_boy]

We’re 10/9 games in for Christ’s sake

It wasn't me who was *gloating* that we are 10 points ahead, I was replying to show how stupid a comment that was.

 

[Fordyboy46]

i cant believe we made that twat Milner look decent. ffs he is 64 years old. we should have attacked him

Foden didn't take him on once, I was so annoyed at that. Their third choice right back, and he made Phil pass back every fucking time

 

[Bald fraud]

Oh well. At least it’s over for another year until we shit our kecks there again. Let’s kick in and win the league as per

 

[balotellishaircut]

At the end of the day iv said it many times before, imo these games are won and lost before a ball is kicked, Pep has a mental block, Klopp talks shit and it somehow affects him, start being a **** Pep and stop praising other teams and managers

Why is cancelo challenging this!

This is any forwards bread and butter. One-on-one opportunity to spin the defender. It’s just poor. To be fair to salah, he turned it on against us today, our defence just couldn’t handle him.

Personally I would question why we had so many players up for that free kick. 0-0, we don’t really need to win, they would have got more desperate as the game went on but for some reason we over committed and left our worst defender 1-1 against one of the best strikers out there. It was complete madness.

 

[Wretched Vengeance]

Utter fucking wank. What the fuck was that substitution.

 

[mmc]

Hopefully this will be the regular daft decision by pep of the season and he doesn’t repeat it in the latter stages of the champions league this year. I doubt it unfortunately.
