Liverpool (a) post-match thread

[paulchapo]

The cross looked good in the end and people are raving about it. 9/10 that would have been dealt with by the defender at the point of the cross and as we had two there, it should have been. It just got worse from there. It was shambolic defending.

Even worse it was Henderson that left them for dead, shocking.

The fucking chances we missed.

It kills me seeing them do everything right, cutnipen a defence and then just fuck up a simple square pass or shot.

We are never going to win the CL or pull back thos deficit unless we sort that out, and as Pep keeps saying it's a mentality problem.

We go into a state of panic in the decisive moments. I don’t know why.

English football is as corrupt as all the rest
Mike Riley will be receiving a nice brown package in the next few days

That weasel isn't fit for purpose.

Closer to Sheffield Utd than Liverpool :(

Current Champions, Community Cup winners and still in four competitions, compare that to Sheffield Utd....

Going into the break 4th behind Leicester is pretty shit.

The players have a lot of work to do. However some don't look like they're up for it.

I agree the players dont look up for it.

Its reminded me a bit of 15/16 where we just kept waiting for them to find that top gear that they had gotten to in previous seasons, but it never arrived.

Is it panic? Sometimes they look like they know they'll get 10 chances a game and it's not that big a deal if they miss this one.

champions of last season, not looking or playing like champions this season and that's what matters most?

ITS NOT INCOMPETENCE, ITS BLATANT FUCKING CHEATING

Correct...If it was incompetence...Ref would be equally incompetent for both teams

How can they be up for it when they know the bastards are going to stitch up what ever we do

It all stems from the lack of desire to press like we used to. It would lock teams in their own half, even teams that don’t want to be there (not just the buses!). We either won the ball high and got a scoring chance, or we forced them into playing long and we mopped it up and came straight back at them. We’ve lost that relentless pressure and sit off quite a bit. When Brighton were passing through our ‘press’ for fun earlier in the season, that was a warning sign if ever I saw one.
