Watford fc v Liverpool fc 1.30 PM

We will be blessed to get a Europe league spot. We are a joke.

LuckyLloyd

Bad pitch, we look very lightweight and simply aren't going to be allowed knock it about now and build play, and there will be no space in behind given they have a two goal lead.

Dead!

That's embarrassing from Skrtel.

Plus poor goalkeeping again to be beaten from that angle by not much power

Calamity of errors again

Harry Palmr

I'd get Origi and Ibe on now I think.

5starpool

The lads took their Christmas holidays early this year. Hopefully they'll come back soon or even Chelsea will be ahead of us by the FA Cup 3rd round.

Skrtel, I'll never understand.

He'll have a stormer against City or Chelsea, and then have an aneurysm against much lesser players. His 'defending' for that goal was atrocious.

He looks good lunging around the place making last ditch tackles but he's making them because he's in a terrible position. He can't defend on the front foot which is whats required against the "weaker" teams (tho they don't look weaker this year). He's a liability. Always has been. New keeper and cb needed very very badly.

SlickRic

It's like we didn't know they'd press.

Flimsy stuff so far.

Surely people have to realise that Skrtel is not the right defender for Liverpool.

He makes too many mistakes and can't do basic defending.

Agent Coulson

Is Lallana even on the pitch

BorneTobyWilde

Looked to me Skrtel did defend it and player took on shot from that clearance to score
What do you do. Things not going our way no matter how committed we are.

In place of Sktrle and Bigdan?

I think he's great

SlickRic

Capoue seems like a horrid individual.

shamrock55

Has the ball touched grass yet

Turtyturd

F*ck off with those balls Henderson.

LuckyLloyd

That replay made it look very painful

SlickRic

Why did Moreno get the talking to? Nyom was the one that stood on him.

Fúck sake.

I wouldn't blame him too much - you aren't going to be able to pass it short and intricate on that pitch.

Vicxas

Firmino, Henderson and Lallana have been non-existent so far

Tempting! No give Firmino and Lallana the hook. Harsh but we need an injection of pace.

He was late. He came out the worst, for sure, but it was his own fault, really.

Not much Nyom could do when it was the follow through from him playing the ball.

BorneTobyWilde

ONly way to make this league real is to reduce it by 5 teams

murpho999

Watford 2 up but working like crazy. Pressing all over the pitch, closing off all options.

Knex*

Clyne is a great defender, but on the ball, he's not the best.

In the last 5 years or so, every team who has bothered to effectively press us has beaten us, every bloody one of them it seems. How we can't consistently seem to do it ourselves is baffling.

shamrock55

Performance so far is truely shocking

Pyjamarama

Need to bring on Benteke now. If we're going to be forced into playing longer balls then we need his presence.

Turtyturd

This is all looking a bit philoshophee-esque.

messinkiapina

Game over. I'd say we could play until new years and not score 2 goals against them now. Klopp has got some job to turn these lot into challengers.

You'll struggle with your post match analysis I reckon, "Lucas is boss" won't be too apt today.

Yeah, think with this pitch, its our best chance.

Lolanna, Cout and Fir should not be on the pitch against physical teams like this, especially with pitch being ****e...

Two CB's are poor with the ball at their feet....

We are struggling in midfield, no agression.... changes please at ht...

again "weaker" teams are so much "cuter" than us.. everyone of them shielding the ball and holding it up..

We're not taking them on down the flanks and we're unable to pass through the middle so spreading it is the only way we're getting some space from Watfords pressing is my take on it - support play needs to be better for the man in possession when the receiver picks it up

Firmino yes, Lallanas trying but not getting involved much

Henderson & Can need to turn this around big time

5starpool

No one anywhere near the danger area when that corner was played in. Awful.

Turtyturd

New 'Hendo cross field ball' drinking game might get me through this.

Knex*

Is Rodgers still in charge?

SlickRic

We're very naive.

Watford keep coming into the back of us and we try stay strong and lose the ball.

They just fall over at any opportunity and moan at the ref.

prettyboy81

Its gonna be a long Sunday! Watford look like Dortmund under Klopp & we look like the Rodgers LFC!

Knex*

Ibe and Benteke may be able to help turn this around.

noodler

This run has been as pathetic as anything under Rodgers' reign.

I'd go with Origi and Ibe asap, see how it goes and than bring on Benteke at 70 mins or so.

Benteke needs a kick up the hole and bringing Origi on first might wake him up a bit.

Origi and Ibe have great attitudes, one goal back and this'll change quickly

Knex*

Ighalo is some man for the shoot cancel.

livinginkorea

Go on Sakho don't give an inch.

machiavellianme

Sahko is the only pool player even trying

Knex*

WTF was that, Bogdan?

Worst thing I've seen all year

livinginkorea

We need a new keeper

Luckycharms_74

Keystone cops goalkeeping

Vicxas

Bring Fulton on. Jesus Christ!
