Klopp got it all wrong tonight… Pep learned from last year. I don’t think Henderson played the ball forward once tonight… Still, 1 loss all season is pretty good.

Lashing out at all and sundry who would rather see a title race. Very bizarre

The Man Yoo fans are more interested in Liverpool than they are in themselves

I correctly pointed to the limitations of Hendo, Jimmy and Gini as a midfield trio.

In the words of the great Tim Vickery, a good midfield trio needs one to get it, one to give it and one to go.

They can get it, alright, two of them can give it a bit, but none are great to go.

After a very slow start, Fabinho has improved steadily since the Manchester United game.

But Keita would want to get his skates on and start producing in the second half of the season because he hasn’t justifed the money at all so far.

After that, we’ll need to hope Lallana might show something when called on, which probably isn’t much of a hope.

Let’s hope they don’t murder anyone.

Jeez i dunno.

2 teams going for the title, under the lights, goalmouth drama aplenty, both teams really going for it.

Context is key

Really?

After all these years you think he’s going to change?

I rest my case

They’ve lost 5 times this season.

It was far from a classic pal,

Klopp didnt have the balls to go for it with the midfield he started.

They’ve rode their luck so far, Mahrez missed pelanty, Pickford chucking one in for them, late wonder goal at The Bridge - they’ve had every break going so far. The fact the EPL is so poor means they have a good chance but I don’t think they have the bottle and I think they will fade toward the season end.

My oh my the irony of it all! :laughing:

+1. It was played at an unbelievable tempo (I suspect both clubs are doping - Liverpool’s pressing is scarcely credible) and was absolutely relentless but, if you look at it coldly and critically, there was a lot of aimless punts away, misplaced passes, balls driven out of play and combinations going awry. Now it was largely due to the obscene amount of pressing and running the teams did without the ball to put pressure on the opponent, but it wasn’t a great game. Compelling alright, as you say, because of the tempo, energy, effort and intensity.

Anybody see @tazdedub tonight?

Agreed. Each to their own but it was all hard running, there was no guile to it. If a defender got put under the slightest bit of pressure it was straight into row Z
