Thought 3 points were there for the taking, but have to be happy with how it ended. Trying not to think about how it's 2 points from West Ham/Palace/Liverpool. Just a proper good match to be at too though, thrilling stuff.

 

You can't think like that about fixtures IMO, they're all individual. People who worry about "well we didn't beat Palace, so now we have to beat Liverpool" are tying themselves in knots for no reason. It's not how football games work.

Can’t believe Carragher is allowed to comment on Pool games man. Look how rattled he is.

[Smal]

watching their goals on MOTD so annoying . Ball bounces back luckily to TAA for their second and Burn slips for their third. So unlucky.

I know, but I have intrusive thoughts about how that joyous equalizer just took us back to still 1 point worse than we thought we were 2 mins before the Palace game ended  It's not my primary feeling, but it creeps in.

What a fun game. Do I wish we’d won?! Aye. But what a fun game. Pissed as a fart

[Disco]

Didn’t realise Burn slipped on the third so he can’t block or attempt a block. Such fine margins

Why can't we play like this more often - cannot fault the performance. Only reason they were in the game was because of Salah - he's just World Class.

Having the season of his life at 32, while having been incredible for ages before that as well is some feat. Not that there should have been any doubt before, but he's nailing his position as the best PL RF/RW ever down. What a player he is

I mean there's no way Mike would have been OK with that.

 

 

Fly 000s of miles to watch Isak inexplicably spurn open goal tap-ins. Doesn't sound that that appealing tbf.

Significant deflection on Jones goal as well.

Weirdly never showed it properly on TV. Thought it had given Pope’s reaction.
 

They’re class like and we went toe for toe but not getting the result when it was there is so frustrating.

Great performance from the lads. Got to be happy with the result under the circumstances but it would have been sweet to get the win.

Yeah, I was right behind it, looked an impossible angle so knew it must’ve come off Burn to go in the near post. He was hitting it across. 

[OverThere]

We gave it a great go and that level of effort is much more like it. Not sure why that went missing v West Ham 🤷

[Pilko]

Feels like so much happened in that game it's hard to unpack  you'd be hard pressed to create a short highlights reel.

 

It was like the complete opposite of the Palace display, gutsy, positive, loads of quality and we can feel unlucky only to get a draw. Then again, we always seem to play canny and get edged out against Liverpool so got to be pleased with the point.

[pedro111]

Sandro playing like that was great to see and I like Bruno getting higher up I just wish that he had more power in his shots.

I've just watched it again, it's a very small deflection but not significant.

 

Ian W needs to go Specsavers.

That vvd on Gordon is red and a penalty. Shocking. Ball is in play .

VAR don't even spend 10 seconds on it, and Prime brush it off like it wasn't anything.

A deflection is exactly that, a deflection.  Even a slight deviation from close range is going to leave the goalkeeper no chance.

So annoying.

Shades of last season that performance

The original path of the ball is to Pope's right, it ends up going in over his left shoulder. Would have been saved. 

 

Just watched it on YouTube at 0.25 speed, so I'm not prontonising.

As a city they might have been shat on, as a football club they've been lauded as national icons. Their fans just can't get enough adulation, they think it's their god given right.

Agreed mate

Watched on Amazon, at the end of the match when they are interviewing Howe there are some chaps doing drills on the pitch. Have seen this happen a few times after games.

Why and who is training at 10.00pm?

Warm down for the subs who didn't come on.
