Some credit has to go towards Spurs being excellent pressers but yes losing the ball too quickly, need more switching the play rather than just getting rid

Ridiculous to get away with that. Also who was it tugging at Sanchez? Not too far from conceding a pen imo

They're committing lots of people forward, we're almost getting outnumbered in places. Open for a counter. We aren't passing the ball out when we do get it, so not going to counter while we keep clearing it long. Shown a bit more last 10 mins.

Vertongens crosses have been very good have to say. Unfortunately good wide player

"Lejeune is the best passer..." Schar casually does pass of the game so far

That was great unfortunate not to get a goal from it

While not their most dangerous front line i think son moura and lamela are really really annoying for the CBs constantly nipping around everywhere

Well done dubs though offside. Starting to turn the screw now though. A moment before Son started sprinting to close down dubravka a LONG time before Schar opted to pass back to him, reading our play well in advance.

They hit the bar after a bit of ping pong

Moura should have scored, where did our defenders go

Surprised no Llorente on pitch considering they knew we'd play this way. We look solid, no really dangerous moments as of yet.

Perez's touch there gorgeous

Well done Lascelles

Where did he say that? Can't find the quote now but fairly sure he said Rafa was what attracted us to him, maybe not only thing but doubt much more. Shouldnt be a surprise Rafa is our best asset to attract anyone

Only thing that makes me think he's staying is almirion saying he only joined to work with Rafa. Wonder if Rafa told him he's sticking around? Still doubt he's going to, if he does will be out of pity for us fans

This will (rightly) be seen as a political victory for Rafa (even though basically club as ever have done bare minimum), and Ashley will despise him for it privately while publicaly saying told you so i do support the manager blah blah blah. If Rafa is, tbh, foolish enough to sign a new contract the money tap will be turned right back off again straight away.

Nah it's been a staring contest between him and rafa and ashley has blinked first

Can't wait to see their lifeless bodies hanging at the city gates come Brexit day

I never tend to like Liverpool much, prolly cos spend too much time with an Everton supporting mate, but Klopp is kinda likeable and rafa is cheering them on so...

Rafa gets a lot of grief for how he sets up against the big teams and yet I think his record compared to a lot of other relegation fodder teams is much better iirc. Yes he prioritises defence, but everton mate told me fat sam genuinely highlighted which games in the remaining season they would actually try to win and actively didn't bother trying in the rest quite openly.

Remember when Abeid beasted man city and immediately got exiled

I will vouch for him and Ki

As terrible as we are signing players in every other position but goalkeepers we have done some good deals for centrebacks in an age when Michael Keane goes for £25m

I do think it's Sky policy to prefer uninformed contrarian nonsense to generate controversy to actual good punditry, gets more engagement with their website and that or something
