His decision-making appears to be up there with Brennan Johnson, that bad

just the 4 yards over the bar, nice one Diaby, glad we steered clear of that mug

I imagine Slot's gonna turn out to be a right cunt too

Elliott's a decent little player but just as tetchy and annoying as the rest of them

I think that's the main issue. They spent time finding a frame that showed him as just onside, but it doesn't even look as if that's when the pass was played to me, or it's subjective at the very least

Pretty typical, it's Klopp/Liverpool so very little analysis of whether it was correct, just swept under the carpet as usual by the commentary team and given. Not a chance we'd get the same decision, or Villa for that matter

This is ridic man, they've found a way to make it onside

Sake Villa, but mayyyyybe Diaz offside?

Bailey unrecognizable from last season

I mean aye, obviously, I meant that Villa and Spurs looked like they were going to hit 80+ points at one point in the season. We just needed a bit more luck with the injuries and we'd have cashed in on their second half (relative) collapse

Never fails

4th was up for grabs this season like, Villa and Spurs have been shit for months

Think it's the natural tendency of a football fan to recall the games where it didn't quite fall for you, rather than recall the lucky wins. There have been a few, like Brentford home with a jammy pen iirc, but a majority of our wins have been decisive. And yeah, generally over a season, you end up where you deserve to. At my age, seen enough seasons to learn that nugget. 89/90 one of the few exceptions.

Yeah, I didn't really mean we should just expect to turn up and beat them. In all 3 games it was there for us and we just didn't play well enough in any of them. Forest was the nadir of the season, the pinnacle of the injuries catching up with us. Think we win today most times, the performance just didn't really warrant it and we held ourselves up with waiting too long to change it, then the subs were largely poor anyway. Everton, we didn't play great either just gave it away at the end. Agree that our away form particularly in the winter was atrocious. Just meant home points are generally easier to come by,

Most of Eddie's frustrating tendencies came to the fore today unfortunately. Pretty shit first half, could have been 2 or 3 down, bailed out by a nice goal on the stroke of half time. Change it then surely since it wasn't working? Nope, got to wait. Murphy got nearly 70 minutes, not sure why. I do like him, great lad but so limited. Not that the replacements were great, Barnes was awful, but still a bit aggravating when you need the win and he's providing nowt. Pope fit enough to be on the bench. Play him man. Too much loyalty to an average keeper. Think we'd have 6th nailed if we'd been a bit less charitable at home. Left quite a few points on the table between Liverpool, Everton, Brighton, Luton, Forest. On the flip side, some brilliant wins against Spurs, Chelsea, Man Utd, Arsenal, Villa, Palace (that one feels like years ago). All told, today was just frustrating, rather than shit. Players were off it most of the game. It's been a pretty remarkable season given the circumstances whether we finish 6th, 7th whatever and I love this bloke. Excited for next season, Europe or not.

Not a bad time to score As mentioned, left side working well, but the rest could use a bit of tinkering. Love Gordon like and great to see Hall getting a bit of trust now

Big club bias has always been there, still remember when Phil Jones moved from Blackburn to Man Utd and literally was immediately in the England squad. Never got a sniff while at Blackburn iirc, in straight away as soon as he moved.

All fair points, the Mings injury week 1 was a nasty one and forgot all about Buendia too.

Brilliant season for you mate and a well-deserved top 4 finish. But if you're this paggered, next season will be brutal. I'm sure lessons will be learned from your season, our season and others' and it will be interesting to see how you cope.

Worked from home since 2008, love it, miles more productive and would never want to go back to commuting, traffic, parking hassles and lost productivity all while getting aggravated and spending more. What a load of shite

Great goal for 2-2 but absolutely useless defending

Also, fuck Roma and their medieval fans

Leverkusen level with just about the last kick, amazing man

I know Wirtz was being annoying there but how are 4 Roma players allowed to wander over and just shove him without yellows?

At least let it get to the point where it's confirmed and give him 5 minutes in the job first
