what on earth is going on with Pope, man

Joelinton is really running in treacle, man. Can’t believe he’s still out there

obviously worked harder than anyone else on his fitness, pre-season performances definitely earned him a start, yet he can’t get ahead of a clearly injured Joelinton. Not a great message for him really.

Think Gordon’s been very predictable today

Love Big Joe but it is very obvious he shouldn’t be playing today

Get our right side and Tonali involved in the build up more. Tonali is the one who’s going to make something happen here.

when we smashed them at SJP we pressed them off the park but we’ve decided to sit off here after the first five minutes. Strange stuff.

we’re not very good

Joelinton is not running properly at all.

Would like Bruno to just try keeping it a bit more simple like he did against City in games like this.

I’d fancy Wilson to have had two by now, like.

needs to be a goal, that

Could be a high scoring game. We’re vulnerable in the pockets between our defence and midfield, which they love to exploit; and they are massively vulnerable to transitions - especially pace in wide areas, which favours us.

12 points imo

fucking hate Klopp, man

did he? It was Botman’s error for the first

I think Tonali can do this for us eventually. Maybe not Maddison levels of numbers because he plays in a different area of the field, but he plays the ball forward all the time.

Amongst the least of our worries today tbh

Honestly I thought we were good until the substitutions. They never looked like scoring against us and we had them pinned in their own 1/3, without us really creating good chances or being particularly good with the ball. The subs were calamitous though.

Absolutely raging, man. Was almost in tears when their second went in it’s my birthday ffs

I really, really can’t get my head around the Tonali/Longstaff sub at all, like. Can’t get over it. Longstaff is a good player out of possession but he’s not someone who helps control a game. The complete opposite of what was required. It didn’t even look like Howe was going to bring him on and then he changed his mind last minute.

The losing sub was Tonali for Longstaff.

Tonali off was a mistake

BDB been fantastic today

ah man, that has to be a goal man
