Liverpool (A) PL - Post Game

[ShedDweller]

Lewis has been shat on by the rest of the squad this season. Every game he has played. Every fucking game here there and everywhere.

How some get on his case makes me vom.

Same for Bernardo, but both have been guilty of jumping out of tackles recently. Is this coached?

The other thing I see often is that we are really slow to try and recover the ball from a tackle, we get a tackle in then stand there looking at it while the oppo player recovers and runs off with it. Infuriating. Happens all the time.

Worst offender is Nunes... He's young and looks like a good athlete so why does he cough up the possession so much?


I also thought that Liverpool are just bang average. They have a lot of energy again. Looks almost unnatural...

I think they are only a couple of players leaving to become shit again, Tront, Salah come to mind.

We need to regroup and refresh starting in Jan with a couple of big signings. I think its going to be a season where a lot of teams drop points. The scousers are a couple of injuries awy from being dogshit just like us.

There's time yet for a lot of teams to take points off each other.

The penalty,

Was it scrutinised on SKY?

My first thought was they were offside but didn't get a proper look with lines etc.

Then the dive over Ortega with the foot move to appear he was caught, was there contact?

 

[big gaz]

Like watching our midfield!

Stuff him all on you since the Knights left us ;-)

 

[Kinkladze 1]

The mother of all rebuilds is required. It’s going to take minimum 4 transfer windows to fix this. Why did no one at the club realise this 2yrs ago?

 

[super_city_si]

Maybe that's the plan?
No Europe, piss the league!

Might fancy winning Europa league.

 

[marco]

We never win this fixture even when we are brilliant.

Its the next couple of games which will tell us if the season is a total write off

great point

 

[Keeper!]

Stop being a Tw+T. They are both international professionals.

Not good to see, just been hammered by your hated rivals and lost our 4th game on the bounce, don't want to see smiles.

 

[Dave Ewing's Back 'eader]

Considering our present woes 0-2 at Anfield isn’t three bad. We need two resounding wins next!

 

[Millwallawayveteran1988]

I thought he was good second half deeper. Needs someone better than Lewis standing next to him.

Still made an error that should have led to a goal for them: too slow now. Number of times he goes backwards is incredible.

 

[MadchesterCity]

We were pathetic, title over, we need to get 4th

 

[Rammy Blue]

Not good enough but can't deny that he works his bollocks off for the team.

It's on Pep and Txiki.

He used to, he doesn’t any more, the amount of times I watch him wandering around aimlessly is fucking embarrassing.

 

[Alan Harper's Tash]

All depends on who's available and if they will want to come. Add to that the amount of 'City Tax' selling clubs will apply...

Our summer window was poor, and I don’t see that Txiki will be given free rein to spend big now he's leaving.

Don’t think Txiki will have much say, but I don’t think that that stops us buying players.

We’ve got millions to spend, so fuck the City tax and bring in the players that are right for us.

 

[franksinatra]

It's not a moral victory but it could have been worse and there are semblances of positives to take from the way we didn't completely capitulate second half.

I think there has been positives, probably with the exception of Bournemouth, in all our defeats.

The big issue is our defenders are completely error prone and we don’t have any legs in midfield.

The main thing I struggled with was the effort and desire.

Players can be out of form, lacking in confidence but we hardly won a header or tackle for the first 20 minutes. That’s not fitness, as it was so early in the game.

Still we have the best man in place to put it right. We know the standards he expects from his players and we know he will do everything to put things right.

 

[Keeper!]

Scouser always bottle it……gooners will pull it back to 4 or 5 by Feb imo

Tarquins are back looking ok, going to go to the wire.

 

[Lavinda Past]

Stop being a Tw+T. They are both international professionals.

Haaland was laughing and joking with the Liverpool defenders throughout the second half. There was nothing 'professional' about his attitude today. Van Djik had him in his pocket.

 

[ONTHERUNWITHTHAKSIN]

Time to roll them sleeves up and fucking fight

 

[Blue Steel]

The scoreline is incredibly flattering. Should have been 5-0 at half time.

We did look better in the second half without creating anything. Lewis and Gundo need a break.

Ake my MOTM - solid.

What’s with bringing Kev and Jack on at 80 minutes? Pointless.

Why can’t Pep play Jack in midfield for crying out loud? I mean, what is actually stopping him at the moment? Mind boggling.

 

[Brightwell Bros.]

The penalty,

Was it scrutinised on SKY?

My first thought was they were offside but didn't get a proper look with lines etc.

Then the dive over Ortega with the foot move to appear he was caught, was there contact?

He wasn't offside, there was clearly contact, and the reason Sky didn't scrutinise it is because it was clear as day.

 

[M43 blue]

Still had a few chances in the second half. Better than the first half where it looked like being a containing job.

Yeah we kept they ball better second half but still some mistakes what gave them a chances I can only really think of the kbd chance for us or the Lewis one first half

 

[Keeper!]

Don’t think Txiki will have much say, but I don’t think that that stops us buying players.

We’ve got millions to spend, so fuck the City tax and bring in the players that are right for us.

Has to be all on Pep, get the players HE wants, he has to be 100% backed.

His little Basque mate has let him down the last two summers.
