    What a let off.

    We are so poor defensively .

    How is it poor defending if so many were offside? That's normally good defending.

    Why do we insist on holding a high line for those free kicks? From the beginning of the run up to when it arrived in the box the defenders had moved back at least 10 yards.. Surely a deeper line with less movement would allow them to deal with it better?

    Blessed that it was not given.

    Well on top and West Brom are creating nothing but while never see out a game comfortably while we defend set pieces like that.

    Because of the way he plays, he's going to need to score a lot of goals or he'll quickly become the scapegoat. And not just today.

    In the attack I was referring to we were going direct at goal but he was positioned wide instead of being in the middle. The attack lost all momentum and defenders got back.
    If he had been central he would have had a pass to him that put him clear on goal.

    Thanks for the insight. We've seen plenty of incorrect off side decisions. This could have quite easily have been another.

    Being offside doesn't equate to good defending unless they were playing for offside which they clearly weren't.

    Mignolet and Skrtel are just liabilities.

    Closely followed by Benteke who is a square peg in the system.

    Just have to wait now for Klopp to bring in a few of his own.

    Well Klopp still hasn't fixed our set piece defending anyway.

    Mig making no contact with the ball can't be put on any of the staff except Mig, all that can be done is dropping him and let his girlfriend have a chat like last year or else leave him play away.

    Dropping him worked last year but might not work this year so it's a tough one. He's not too bad lately though to be fair.

    But the opponents had an illegal and unfair advantage so you can't really criticise a defence for that.

    Arsenals penalty was given today after a few seconds delay. Could be something in that.

    Yes, he's playing his own game of standing statues.

    I mentioned before about holding that high line on frees, it's a disaster waiting to happen. Any decent defensive coaches free, Steve Clarke?

    I presume you are talking about the home form. I would say its is the exact same really, same defensive issues and no ability to break down teams that defend deep.
