Liverpool (N) | Community Shield | Post-Match

[nellyonthewing]

Disappointing performance. Mahrez and Grealish both very poor . Cancelo giving acres to his man . Rodri slow , Kdb passing awful . Poor Haaland left horribly isolated was the worst part of that. Walker caught ball watching . A lot for Pep to sort out before West Ham.

Liverpool better today fair play to them.

Grealish continues to worry me still can’t believe we spent 100 mil on him

Alvarez will be a fan favourite

Haaland needs to become more involved in the build up

need another full back

thought we played well in patches today but just didn’t do enough to win

Agree - They wanted it more and were further down the road to fitness. I don't even mind the Haaland miss - better to get them out of the way in this than when it really matters. My only small concern is Ake - there were gaping holes down the middle every time they attacked - you wouldn't see that with John or Laporte in there. He looked like a kid playing his first games. I also hope Mahrez, Grealish and Bernardo return to form soon.

They will dine out on this but like last year it doesn't mean a thing - they can check back with us in three months. That said I hate losing to them and the way they get away with harassing officials and throwing flares onto the playing surface after the directive was not to do that will not even highlighted by their darling media. Only other gripe is there was not one replay of Matic handball but of course ref Henderson waved it away.

Onto next week, they look hurt which is a good thing.

We looked far far better when foden Alvarez came on ..

It's a friendly now we have lost.

Its always been a friendly mate. Don’t like seeing us lose ever but come on.

 

[K-Bo]

Looked Less fit but still dominated a lot of the game and still missed quite a few easy chances

 

[blueinsa]

The clueless woman on the mike killed it for me.

You will get pellters for saying it but it’s fucking painful having to listen to what is nothing but a pc appointment.

Win next week we won’t give a shit, Harlands miss has just made it a bit “ oh ffs “

 

[Bazzmand Show]

Fair play to Nunez, he will fit right in with the scousers. Diving with his first touch.
He was excellent though.

Was he?

I thought he looked OK goal aside.

 

[manimanc]

The fittest team wins. No biggie. Roll on next week.

 

[City & Blue Brazil]

We’re two weeks away from being ready .

Pity we got a game next week then...
