Liverpool FA Cup s/f (N) | Post Match Thread

Very disapponting,but entirely expected and predictable.

Saying that,fair play to our reserves for making their best team look very mediocre for 45 mins.

Stones MOTM.

Stones? He was a liability today.

We lost, we played poorly and I’m already over it.

No issue with criticism but some of the stuff written in the match day thread is fucking ridiculous.

Win the league again and I’m a happy bunny. The CL will be a bonus but it’s not a competition I’m enamoured with and never will be I suspect.

We do neither, we will be back again next season and the world will still be turning.

Considering how much more rest most of their team had, we did well. If you look at the chances for Sterling and Jesus we could have got something from this game.

I feel so sorry for those who spent hard earned money to watch that! If Pep had no intention of trying to win that today then he should have just took the complete U23 team and rested everyone. But once again he is a law unto himself and bizarrely puts out a 50/50 half arsed team of players with no form and players who were shattered. Other than Ake and Stones the whole team and non tactics were a bloody disaster. Why you would persist with the same exhausted team for the full 90 minutes is amongst the greatest acts of obstinate stupidity I have ever witnessed.

Why pick Sterling… he never plays well against Liverpool.

Well if you don’t play your back up keeper you don’t have a back up keeper

Carabao cup games are enough, and dead rubbers on the CL. Certainly not such an important game as this! Liverpool played Allison didn’t they, not their back up.

On Pep that defeat.

Better management on his part maybe we could have won that.

He had given up on this game, hence why there was only one belated Sub so late.

He makes Subs earlier and we go on to win, He then has to admit maybe i got it wrong to start with.

So he waits until come back looks virtually impossible before making a token Sub, unfortunately he scores more or less immediately.

Liverpool were there for the taking.

WTF is his problem with substitutions.

Same Man was begging the FA to make it 5 permissible Subs per game.

There were a lot of comments on the match day thread about this being our B team but if we’re being honest with ourselves it was established first team players, Bernardo, Foden, Sterling, Jesus and Grealish who didn’t perform today. We were absolutely shocking in the first half.

I actually thought Jesus was our best forward player today but once again his finishing was dogshit.

 

[urban genie]

Pep did a Porto the silly twat.

We gifted them first half and deserved fuck all from the game.

Be fine as long as we win the league, smash the cunts in paris

Expected only a loss anyway. Got a respectable scoreline. Well done for that. Now rest and prepare for the 2 home games.

 

[Sky Blue]

I’ve always defended Sterling but today he was spineless and atrocious.
