Why the fuck do we not have a left-back again?

Say what you will about fucking Boehly but, and I'm not suggesting for a minute we'd be better off if he was in charge, if he had bought the club in the summer a left back would've been through the door in two weeks tops even if it cost 60m. It's horrendous that we find ourselves having to do this bizarre Wallace and Gromit shit at Anfield of all places to compensate for the fact that one of the eleven positions on the pitch is fundamentally unrepresented.

On the other hand we're obviously the best side in the league and we'll win it eventually, but it's exactly these kinds of games that cost us the CL.

Dire 1st half. Obvious from the off Liverpool was happy with a 0-0 and our lethargic and passive approach played right into their hands. Gave too much respect for a team bang out of form.

I’m just glad it was at the end of the weekend so it didn’t ruin it. Expected result, but there was always hope.

Tomorrow morning at work will be fun.

[Gogootz]

In-cred-i-bly frustrating

 

[cupsforcockups]

Why was cancello last man when he’s the. Most suspect defender we have would like to have seen Dias as last man but alas we bottle it again

 

[StrutterBlue]

If we'd got passed Madrid. That's exactly how I imagined the final playing out

 

[coolcity]

We had as many if not more chances as them and have matched or bettered them most of the time but they have had to put in a full effort though, you could say Peps tinkering, Citys softness, shit VAR decisions and fucking Cancello cost us, because they did.

They had to go crystal palace or southampton on us and put in 110% effort.

Typical Anfield trip

Trouble is you can say we're soft, but I blame the refs. Teams always get away with it, we don't. You can't allow the game to "flow" if it means you're getting kicked around the park. A foul is a foul, our goal was disallowed for a soft one yet plenty others were let go on both sides. No consistency.

I hope the murderers see the irony in constantly greeting about our spending yet they happily chucked currency at Pep in the second half.

Sure that will be hushed up. Bad for the brand.....

Perfect ref for the product in the everso compliant alti.

Poor in spells but with some nice moves. Too many poor performances against these game raising twats. Poor tactics too from baldy! Bernie you da man.

 

[Gorton_Tubster]

How can it be all on Pep? But then also on the players?
And the ref?

No matter what we say when they’re up for it like they are against us their ground is best and most hostile in the country, every ex top player says it’s the toughest place to go
The crowd and players are charged up to fuck and they’ve got a lot of quality players
Some of our players always fold there and it’s probably the hardest place in the world to get a win
It’s not on Pep, he’s not overthought anything, we just got beat by a very good side at their most up for it

On the players, I’m devastated for Silva to put in that performance and lose, Foden crumbled and shit himself, Cancelo was Awful, KDB should be seasoned and confident enough to realise it’s not just any game or situation and just go and get himself on the ball
Rodri meh, Gundo meh


Foden should’ve been off at 50 mins and Grealish on
