Forgotton about Man City and SS (SuperSpurs) already! Nitpicking here, but we were not really arsed about the City game as the sending offer concluded that match. Saturday was the first real run for the fab four together the season. They look good together and we are now getting our squad back to full strength. We have also tweaked our style of play. Less exposed, more confident in our ability to breakdown eventually, rather than full tilt. Looking forward to Chelsea now. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post BangrakBob Posted November 21, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted November 21, 2017 (edited) Find it a bit churlish the Chelsea boys don't want to admit how good Salah is... Salah and KDB are lighting up the EPL, there is no denying that and there is no denying that any football fan would be daft not to admit that they would love to have those 2 players in there squad right now, including Chelsea, who actually did have them in there squad but did not persevere. Salah is a revelation, it's not just his goals and speed, but his ability to shield the ball, bring the ball down, passes in and around the box and eye for a run is brilliant, assists etc. And his understanding with Coutinho which we saw in preseason, is another massive attribute, we saw again for the second goal.

Liverpool, Chelsea, Man United and even Arsenal showing more fight and ability. Spurs obviously in the mix. Any dips in form from City could be punished. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sat watching with a fellow Red on Saturday and that was the first thing I said on that first goal, did not expect it. Thought we’d have seen Lallana on the bench for that match, interesting to see the team tonight, considering Saturday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah the Ox for Mane - Studge for Firmino - some Milner and Can action in the middle, keep Hendo and Gini benched. Chelsea is a much bigger game. I'd rather rest players tonight and hope for a draw or better, than full strength and lose to Chelsea. Hahaha it's 9.30 for me, and even that's bit late on a school night...

Yeah, I'm not getting that. Every team/manager has made an error of judgement in the past and sold a player(s) they later regretted and yet the Chelsea guys are convincing themselves that they were and still are, the right decisions.

Devil Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 A draw before the game would of seemed a good result away to Sevilla but wow that was something else from us in the second half ! So much was right about our first half performance, the balance, the work rate, the tempo, the quality in attack but my god the individual defensive errors again but whats worse is just how easily we cracked under pressure...

Take away Moreno's brainfarts and you have to look at Hendo! Didn't win a tackle or headed challenge in second half and a pass success rate of just over 50%! Nowhere near good enough from the team captain 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rc2702 Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 Did not expect us to go through last night as that's just not the smooth sailing we do in these comps. The coach of Sevilla apparently told his men he had cancer at half time. They have not lost in that ground in Europe for a very long time either so I'm happy to have a point.

BangrakBob Posted November 26, 2017 Share Posted November 26, 2017 Another disappointing draw, have to question the boss again in this one. Rotating the squad at home against the champions? Continuing with Hendo when he is clearly out of form. It felt like we set out for a draw, it was a lifeless Liverpool in the first half. Mane and Lallana brought on too late again. Yes it was a fluke goal that got them a draw, but we need to be defending a lead for once. i don't know if you can fault Mignolet on the goal.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd be very interested to hear why Mane spent most of the game on the bench, just seemed a huge mistake. In a game like this if he was fit to play he should have played. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
champers Posted November 26, 2017 Share Posted November 26, 2017 As an unbiased neutral, I thought it was a dull first half and a cracking second. Draw was fair. The left backs were the 2 best players on the pitch, Salah and Hazard close behind. If I was a Liverpool fan I would prefer to have Milner at right back till Clyne is fit and play Gomes at centre back with Matip. Alexander-Arnold should be treated as a future CB too. Henderson won't pass the ball forward enough or quickly enough when he does. I'm not sure if this is a coaching issue or lack of confidence on his part. A congested fixture list necessitates rotation but I would have played Mane from the start. He has won games in the first half hour before.

I think you'll find TAA will be playing further up the pitch as he progresses. I don't know how long Hendo has been with us now, and I'm still not sure about him. When I saw him and Milner in the middle yesterday it was did not inspire, you just knew we would not be charging at them. Maybe because there is a lack leadership across the group it exasperates Hendo's short comings as a captain, but as a player too, i'm not sure he's good enough. I also think we play better football without him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BangrakBob Posted November 29, 2017 Share Posted November 29, 2017 I guess we will be expecting further rotation tonight with a trip to Brighton on Saturday, Migs Gomez - Matip Klavan - Robertson Gini - Can - Coutinho - Oxlade Salah - Firmino Worked against West Ham Then bring in Lallana for Coutinho - and go back to front 3 with Mane - Oxlade and Firmino for Brighton. Everyone gets a rest and 6 points in the bin and ready for CL Qualification and 3 points against the Blue <deleted> at home...back on track!
