Liverpool Thread - 2022/23

I only watched the highlights, but looked to me like they were lucky to get a point. Fulham could easily have gone into the break 2-0 up

Always annoys me when the dippers or rags drop points and we're not playing until the next day. I don't feel I can laugh at them properly until we have the three points in the bag.

Make hay while the sun shines.

 

[Cotontoquinn]

Yeah, best not to gloat until we are safely two points ahead!

Or two goals ahead!

Anyone been down to the vigil at Albert Dock tonight? Prayers are being said for the two lost points.

Dippers trying to make out like Nunez did something amazing. He scored and it was a decent goal but its laid on a plate for him. He also completely fluffed an identical situation just prior to the goal trying the same flick when he could easily have put his foot through the ball with a bit of spin and buried it and just before that he had a glorious chance that he could have buried or laid off for a tap in and he did neither, passing to the only defender in his way instead. Then for their second, he totally balls'd up a simple touch and finish, very fortunate Salah was also there.

So yeah he scored one but its no exaggeration to say he should have scored 4 in the short time he was on the pitch. I guarantee Mane bangs in those chances and Liverpool somehow win that game 3-2. He's going to score a lot of goals because of liverpools relentless percentage football of cross after cross but he's not on the level of Mane and that's already cost them points.

It was a shocking finish for the goal. Cocked one up just before. Didnt learn from it, did exactly the same thing again but got lucky as the defenders clearance hit him and went in. You wont see a flukier goal all season. The “assist” was a bad first touch that luckily went straight to Salah.

Sterling type level stuff

With the goal he missed the kick entirely, but it bounced off Adarabioyo, back onto him and went in. Complete fluke from an air shot.

Yup I saw that he completely missed it and the defender kicked it back on to his foot. Fluke goal.

 

[Plays By Sense Of Smell]

Trent is dreamy, or he is dreaming when he is defending.

Got that, everyone?
Pressurise ttd at the back post. Bully him all day. You'll find chances.

I read that Nunez inspired their comeback and scores one and made the other. That is exactly how this works - that description is so desperate, so loosely based on truth, it is sickening: how the hell did he 'make' their second?

EDIT - I actually just read that their second came from 'Nunez's magic touch'.

Nunez looks full of emotion. He will either calm down and be a good signing or he will get mopey and stay an impact player off the bench. A lucky striker is better than a decent striker though and he will probably win them plenty of points and plaudits by running around like an excited puppy and trying crazy stuff. In that respect he suits Liverpool and he will always be fun to watch as he is likely to do something mad at any moment. I vote him most likely to knock himself out by running into a goal post

Diaz I'm hoping turns out to be a myth. Their left hand side is the most slappable in the league

Their whole side is the most slappable in the league ..

another trophey for them to add to the collection!

 

[FantasyIreland]

Nunez missed the first and it went in off Tosin,and he almost fell over the 2nd which somehow turned into a pass.

I guess at best,he was in the right place.......but its clear.....the media is desperate for him to be a success.

 

[steviemc]

All that matters is that they coldn't beat a team that would normally be classed at the absolute botton of the Preniere League. It's upto us to take advantage of this.

And for poor Virgil who went missing yesterday along with his little friend Trent.

I would have but it was a dry bar.

 

[Jesus H Gabz]

Messaged my mate (on the wind up) to ask him if Plopp really complained about ‘a dry pitch’ his reply “he only mentioned it” I said “so if you win next week and it’s raining” ? still waiting for a reply
