Liverpool (H) Post Match Thread

[Bluesince1979]

I liked klopp but he has been consumed by the whole Liverpool nonsense and has now turned into a wally. The whole lfc bollox in the media and within football is actually becoming a parody.

It’s actually embarrassing.

And largely built on myth.

He was playing teeth games

I have some scouse ancestry. As a result, I always wanted Liverpool to take out Manure etc - even then - 80s, 90s, noughties, they rarely did. Not a second team, but the closest thing to. All changed with the coach attack. Can't believe I ever gave 'em the time of day. You live and learn.

this made me laugh.

Not me, just realised watching this they won 1-0. It was only last night I was sure we smashed we phlegm spitters.

How can you not understand that?

Do you struggle to tie your shoelaces as well?

Nah, the words were easy enough to read. Its the lack of basis in reality that struck me as odd.

That's what made it lack meaning. A bluetinted glasses is no excuse for silly claims. VVD simply did not disappear. His team lost. Stop confusing the 2.

Watched the highlights like 10 times now and can confirm it’s as good on the eleventh viewing as it is on the first ;)

Thought putting Laporte at LB worked in the context of the opposition. We had more of a flat / traditional back 4 with none of the inverted fullback tactics we usually deploy. This took away all the space that Salah and Mane would usually target and gave their midfield no out ball when under pressure. Hes a million times better as a CB but his inclusion worked last night.

I'm not sure this is factual. Their goal was an example of flooding and utilizing the space out wide. Simply put, regardless of who plays fullback, we do relinnquish the wings when doubled up. Which happens a lot.

Not reading all that. What's all this about us playing like stoke?

True, but it was their fullback who had the space. Sterling should have tracked him. We killed their usal game which is hitting the channels early for mane and salah.
