smokie36 Posted September 15, 2018 Share Posted September 15, 2018 Obviously our chances are somewhat limited when one of our players thinks he's a contestant on Stars in your Eyes..."Yes carms....today I'm going to be David Beckham!" Add Crusty the Clown in goal and we're all set. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bredbury Blue Posted September 15, 2018 Share Posted September 15, 2018 (edited) Decent shout for a (Mane clip of Son's foot) penalty in the last minute at 1v2. Where's VAR when you need it eh. Edited September 15, 2018 by Bredbury Blue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seemed to be lacking energy which is normally a big plus. Kane was very quiet again. On the day probably lucky Liverpool weren’t at their best either.

smokie36 Posted September 15, 2018 Share Posted September 15, 2018 This Liverpool team could win the league if they sort out their teamwork better. Too many selfish individual errors. Why did that make me think of Danny Rose...? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

balo Posted September 15, 2018 Share Posted September 15, 2018 Very poor performance , and Liverpool look like us last season, full of confidence and play good attacking football. Not sure why we can'r create enough chances , yes Liverpool were good , still at home and only 3 shots on target. Should have been a penalty in the end . Top 4 still what we should focus on , nothing has changed really , we just don't look the same as last season . But I think we can turn this around to something positive already on Tuesday against Inter, they had a poor game and lost at home to Parma.

carmine Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 That was a scoreline that hid the true reflection of the game, it was a far more comprehensive win. Liverpool were extremely good. Bossed the game from start to finish. As for Spurs, were looked nearly, almost tired, lacking in all the basics required. Apart from the current form of Lucas Moura i have nothing positive to say about that at all. If we have leveled at the end it would have been a travesty. We look slow and knackered, and so early in the season. Is this the hangover from having so many players playing deep into the world cup? And Dier!!!!! We so desperately need Wanyama back and match fit. Don't know about playing Inter and Brighton away next week, the entire team looks like they need a solid weeks kip.

smokie36 Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 How many times will we see Danny Rose miles out of position this season? The lad is a liability nowadays. Vorm I can forgive as he hadn't started a big game in a long while and certainly got thrown in the deep end there. Lucas Moura what can you say?....he improves with every game he plays....first name on the teamsheet now for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah they looked laboured but the 'tiredness' thing.. ok if its tiredness no doubts its a factor but we then managed to pick up the pace in the last 15 mins ? .. tbh looked to me like poch got it wrong,as he did at watford, and yesterday it took all of ?

To me it looked like we started wrong....fixed it after around 20 mins or so but had little to offer up front in terms of real threat other than Moura. I don't see a huge amount we could have changed to be perfectly honest and that is down to personnel available rather than tactics.....Liverpool have improved in every area whilst we (meaning our chairman) have stood still. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That failure cost us time and again and will continue to against pacey sides. Davies is a better left back all round....Rose doesn't even offer the attacking threat we see in Trippier.

Gave it away too cheaply and failed to cause problems for their defence is the issue and one we need to address quickly be it with our current squad or investing in better players. Would Delli Alli or Son earlier in the game have made a difference? Certainly Dier/Son to start might have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might get the board to back the team with a bit of cash. 50m. Worth dreaming about. 3 wins and 2 losses. That type of return will might get Thursday night footy back where it belongs.
