Thiago Alcantara 24 shots to 3. 10 to 1 on target. Thiago Alcantara

And a shot at CL qualification

Michael Owen said that first half was the worst thing he's had to sit through, this coming from a man who has watched his daughter get fingered on national television

Nice attacking line-up but Fabio not up to it yet. Tepid first half. Firmino came on and we started looking dangerous as we build momentum, Klopp brings on Milner at right-back, and Robbo at left, Tsimi was having a good game. These subs killed that impetus. Best this team can hope for is top 4 and a run in Europe. <deleted> Dreadful, boring, <deleted>, <deleted>, <deleted>, <deleted>

Not overly impressed with the Newcastle display, but it's hard to expect more from what's on the park. Elliott and Carvalho, 20 & 19 best players on the park again and being looked to for creativity. Can't expect them to wear that pressure every match. And yet another midfield injury, with Hendo now out with a muscle injury. They thought they where getting Tchouaméni, Real Madrid scuppered that. Apparently there was no alternative so they stick with AOC and Keita. AOC has been out for 2 months already with a hamstring, and Keita has been one of he worst injury prone signings in Klopp's era. I don't think they were going to go after anyone, even a week ago. It was. only after Hendo got injured they dipped in to the market. He's another Ozan Kabak. last minute desperation body in. One who has had 15 injuries in 4 seasons. Completely uninspiring. As Klopp said, we need to take greater risks in the market. Can't keep cutting corners and expect Klopp maintain pace with City, year on year. Chuck some money at it!! Interesting to see how we will line up in midfield tonight, another start for Milner I guess. <deleted>. Dioga back is great news, Thiago next week. Will Nunes start.....

Long time mate, nice to see you!

Haaland looks incredible, the final piece. If only Silva would leave!

Fortunately there is no correlation between any of these events, a bit like Klopp losing finals rubbish, he went and won how many since.... The reality is, we've had a bunch of injuries, new systems, and knackered players, complacent players who needed a rocket up their <deleted>.

What a horrendous start, you really can't account for the amount of injuries we had, but it's not good enough from the players on the field. I'm not sure these new patterns of play, positioning are working. It's like they've not played with each other at times. The set up is very much for a proper number 9, who still has 2 games of suspension to go. It's pushed Salah much wider and I don't see the benefit of pushing him further from goal. Against United there was a bigger problem, no fight. A complete lack of urgency, leadership, no cohesion. Not what we are used to seeing, but it needs to change quick. Klopp has come out and spoke about having money and needing players, this has never happening before. I hope there is time to get someone decent in to that midfield. This club will drop to mid table when Klopp leaves. FSG need to back him now.

Yeah he is not meant to be starting football matches for us, his part is supposed to be late on in a match experience support.
