Not for me fella, I’m a slightly overweight, White, middle aged man who’s proud to be English, happy to be British, a royalist (despite Cromwell riding through my manor) long live the queen!!Probably the only thing I can agree with Liverpool fans on
Agree with a lot of that but Pep has already said we won’t change the way we play so I think Haaland is going to have to adapt rather than the rest of the team.Important bits for me -
1. Clear lack of individual fitness and match sharpness throughout the team as evidenced by lack of shuttle running, not being first to loose balls and being easily knocked off the ball.
2. Players so used to a false 9 they were unsure how to play with a target man. Haaland made many a run but the pass wasn’t forthcoming.
3. Thought Haaland had a good debut. Got himself in the right place at the right time a few times. Fluffed his lines a bit but on another day they go in and he walks away with a couple of goals. Liked what I saw from him but needs to improve his fitness if we’re using him as a first press.
4. Alvarez looks a grafter and clever little player. Gives us something different.
5. Thought the dippers were pretty mediocre and the score line flattered them. No signs of them having changed anything about how they play / what they do. They were fitter / sharper and looked like they were further on in their preparations than us.
We need to get fitter and sharper and learn how to work with Haaland. Once we do that it’ll be normal service resumed.
If you say soI think the rule is if you are in red then the rule changes.
Was that not like only the opening 20 minutes ?He was piss poor. Gave Salah a field day, non-existent defensively
He scored the goal and haaland missed a sitter. We are never going to hear the end of it for some timeI t is cringe worthy embarrassing watching the Candlewaivers overdoing the celebrations after winning a Charity Shield.
Nunez is now ready apparently.
Last week he was lacking confidence and the knives were already out ...............fuck off.
Really? So you can dive forward, ground your hands, the ball hits and it's OK lolThink the rule is if you’re putting your hand down to stop you falling and the balls hits it it’s not a pen
Not 100% on that but think so
As per the start of most seasons, we're currently way behind - we'll be cooking on gas come the important stuff.I think the frustration mainly comes not only in losing to that lot, but the manner in which we played, especially when it comes to not utilising Haaland in the first half, and the poor passing/ball control throughout
Any reason why this isn't a pen?
Misses the header, hits his hand on the floor.
