Has Salah's hair been reseeded or just had a number 1 ?

To be fair, Frank has always done that. It does get them goals, but he surely needed to be more cautious in the first few minutes at Anfield.

All I see when they come to city is 11 behind the ball then hit us on the break! That's how they should be playing at Liverpool

Great atmosphere. Lol its a fucking myth.
Some of the whinging fuckers from yesterday should have gone to Anfield instead.

A stat that is never, ever spoken about. When you think that they have stats for every other thing, it must be known.

What is the %accuracy of free kick shots at goal.

1. How many are on target.
2. How many end up with a goal.
3. How many miss the target - that includes hitting the bar.

Sick to death of seeing free kicks where they take 5 minutes to line it up, the free kick taker stands like he's posing for a statue.....then balloons it.

About one-in-five direct free kicks in the final third are taken as shots. About 5% of them are scored - generally between 15-30 per season or one every one to two weeks - though last season was an all-time low of about 3.88%.

The low success rate has led to a trend of fewer shots being taken by teams unless the positioning is more optimal:

This is a very, very long half of football.

Brentford the better side but toothless upfront.

Is there a problem with sky's microphones? I get a small burst of what seems like static, then it all goes dead for long mins at a time .

Transplant.

 

[I'm Blue]

Well that was exciting.
The grass has grown 0.000000000045mm in the first half.

Boring boring Liverpool.
