Liverpool (A) | PL | Post Match Thread

I really wanted to gloat to dipper friend that your idiot TAA did the team talk for us, but fuck we panic a lot in 2nd half and somehow 7-8 of our players played really under their normal level. even likes of Bernardo, Rodri, KDB...

Ake and Ederson with a colossal fuck up right in 2nd minute of 2nd half, when does this kind of brainfuck happens in a big game in our favor? when?

we need to beat Newcastle and Arsenal now at Etihad, no other option.

and a fucking international break between them with some injuries guaranteed...
 
Haaland is getting double and triple teamed. He cannot score every time for us. Others need to step up. Foden had a shocker, KDB besides the cross missed with every pass. Alvarez was playing like he is pub midfielder. Dreadful all round except for Stones, Doku, Otega and Kova.
 
I think we need to acknowledge the elephant in the room.

Unless Haaland scores or produces a big moment for someone else he is a liability in our team setup.

Also, this is the second game this season where our midfield has been completely obligated by the opposition (happened against Aston Villa as well). In recent I've seen us lose, play badly, have an off day, lose to a poorly defended counter attack but never get completely dominated in the middle of the park. This doesn't happen to Pep teams and it's happened twice so far this season. I believe it's connected to the above factor.

Anyway, thanks to a great piece of set piece work we came away with a point. That's a positive at Klanfield but it means the title is now out of our direct control.
That's what happens when Gundogan leaves, I think our midfield is better with Kovacic but Pep likes what he sees from Alvarez there for whatever fucking reason.
 
We won the first half, they won the second, but truth be told we were the paint on post away from stealing it and we have kept ourselves in the title race.

Sometimes you have to suffer through these.
Spot on and giving them the gift of a penalty at the start of the second half was a complete disaster. It gave Liverpool and their fans all the momentum and new belief. Poor from Ake and then compounded by the stupid challenge from Ederson...not the first time he has done this.
 
haaland was a fuckin disgrace, no wonder Kev was kicking off when he got hooked, having said that we shit the bed at klanfield once again after the first 15 min
