Fucking cheek moaning about coming off after that performance. Also clearly still a least a stone heavier than before his injury and it doesn't seem to be shifting

Have to disagree. I think the mistake was to wait so long to take him (and Alvarez) off. If we had another decent out-and-out striker, Haaland would have likely come off, too.

I am biased when it comes to KDB because he is my favorite player.

 

[Blumers Bloomers]

He is probably the best player ever to wear our shirt.

Sometimes he’s not going to be on it

Today was one of those days. However I would have kept him on as he only needs one pass/one shot that can win the game

Endo was closing him down at each touch. Kovacic responded better and calmed our midfield

Could of took any of the front players off today but I'll say it again point gained today.

Agreed. None were at the races, unfortunately.

And most of us would have probably taken a point if it had been offered before kickoff, so I am not complaining that much about the result, more just concerned about the seeming lack of fitness of some of our most important players going in to the final stretch of the season.

Tough call. Probably right. You can't have passengers, against Liverpool, at Anfield. That said, I've always got this in the back of my mind — Kev can have a rank poor game (and he's had plenty) and then produce something that you can't quite believe you saw. That must have been a temptation to Pep to keep him on.

 

[AshtonBlueMooner]

Not his game today.
Spent more time pushing his blonde (ginger) locks back than he did threading decent balls through.
He‘s got plenty of credit in the bank but perhaps a high intensity game at Anfield so soon after a bad injury was a game too much.
Recharge and come back as we know you can do Kev.

 

[Damien10]

Disappointed with his reaction. He couldn’t get back he looked knackered!

 

[eastmanc]

He'll be ok.
