Kev and Phil needed to get in the game. Both been anonymous

Get Phil and Jack on the ball more.

Laporte giving me kittens.

Seen this so many times .Could go either way this.
Busy midfield players trying to pass the ball into the Palace net and gaping holes at the back when Palace burst forward.

Could anybody clarify that this result is helping Liverpool?

I've not heard the commentator say it once!

It's not Pep's fault that we're not putting away a wide variety of clear-cut chances for expensive and quality attackers

I would say it is as he has moaned about our finishing for years yet its as bad as ever, what do we do in training with finishing and set pieces, nothing by The looks of it.
Part of every transfer along with the medical is put the ball on the spot, if they player passes it or misses the target, call off the transfer.

Laporte is so sloppy in possession it’s quite worrying!

I think him & Rodri tonight are causing us issues more than palace

kdb and mahrez doing wonderful job on left side

 

[Gundogan's Moustache]

Surprised Foden and Grealish haven’t swapped, both been fairly quiet

 

[balotelli's back pocket]

Absolutely abysmal defensively, Laporte is unrecognisable from previous seasons.

Bernardo has to score. Laporte has to score. Mahrez has to score (maybe that last one's a bit harsh).

The amount of passes completely missed is bizarre.

Even if we end up winning tonight (big if), this half has been so worrying. Way off where we need to be.
