    This ref lol, the challenge on Moreno was from behind and those are freekicks

    To much of a rush to get ball forward
    Should be retaining it
    Probing
    All we do it win
    Try to go forward
    Shoot from range
    Or lose the ball
    No leader out there on pitch
    No voice of influence

    No bad.... doesn't rhyme though.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 36,480 ✭✭✭✭BorneTobyWilde


    Lucas stood off person who crossed it for goal!
    That is shocking not to try stop that cross

    Surely we wouldn't have 60+% possesion if the above was true. We're trying to work it around but West Ham are set up very solidly and making it tough for us. We don't have the wingers to stretch the play enough. Ibe needs to offer more runs in behind as opposed to standing there waiting for the pass.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,740 ✭✭✭✭MD1990


    Coutinho shoots too much but not much he can do when Benteke won't move.

    Literally was a free kick to Moreno by a West Ham player


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 11,443 Mod ✭✭✭✭Hammer Archer


    Pleased with the first 30-35 minutes. Since Manny's gone off we've gone off the boil. Our injury nightmare just never ends.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,414 ✭✭✭Lord Trollington


    We've been lucky the last few games to scrape 1-0 wins.

    Your luck runs out eventually. Can't see us getting back into this as we've no threat up front


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,502 ✭✭✭✭martyos121


    Can hits the bar, Michael Owen comments on it:

    "You're not going to score too many of these."

    Well no shît, Mike.

    That possession is made up of the 50 plus times we have it and lose it quickly. No control to the 60%
    We have it
    Lose it
    We have it
    Lose it
    We have it
    Lose it
    We have it
    Shoot from range
    We have it
    Cross to no one
    We have it
    Hoof it forward

    It keeps being said that we need to play to Benteke's strengths but thata exactly what we've been doing and he's been useless.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 36,480 ✭✭✭✭BorneTobyWilde


    Play easy
    Retain
    Be 100% sure you retain ball
    Wear them down mentally
    Try to create clear opportunities
    If it's not on it's not on
    Play


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,976 ✭✭✭doc_17


    I'd be interested to hear what those calling for Allen to come on think he's gonna do?

    It keeps being said that we need to play to Benteke's strengths but thata exactly what we've been doing and he's been useless.

    Are we?
    Useless possession, slow build ups, terrible crossing, nobody making runs off him.

    Does anyone actually believe we are playing to his strengths?

    We are just poor

    It keeps being said that we need to play to Benteke's strengths but thata exactly what we've been doing and he's been useless.

    And our best chance came playing the opposite to his strengths.

    Look utterly handsome with his long flowing hair


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 36,480 ✭✭✭✭BorneTobyWilde


    Hope we see Klopps influence !
    I crave to see it
    Come on !!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,948 ✭✭✭✭Osmosis Jones


    I'd try Firmino off for Brad Smith. Coutinho central and better crosses into the box.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,517 ✭✭✭passremarkable


    I'd say firmino has 15 mins

    Lucas has been absolutely brutal...Allen couldn't be any worse.

    For all the stick Firmino is getting he's been better than Coutinho.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,105 ✭✭✭mada999


    STOP ****ING SHOOTING FROM THERE COUNT!!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,692 ✭✭✭✭machiavellianme

    ... on the subs bench before klopp gets annoyed with him there too and sends him to wait on the bus.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,987 ✭✭✭Kerrigooney


    Also...Firmino created 3 chances in the first half,he's not the problem. Coutinho has been a hell of a lot worse.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 28,397 ✭✭✭✭Turtyturd


    Firmino with a chance to play Benteke through....Benteke is standing offside.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 36,480 ✭✭✭✭BorneTobyWilde


    Commentator '' same for everyone over course of season, too much made of time before games, evens its self out over season''
    So those who got knocked out of Coka Cola Cuppa early and are not in Europe have no advantage. Whatever!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,692 ✭✭✭✭machiavellianme


    Benteke you clown


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,948 ✭✭✭✭Osmosis Jones


    Great effort Ben


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,205 ✭✭✭fyfe79


    Cout thinks he's in the All-Ireland with all those points he's taking

    No, the welsh xabi is most definitely not a solution to any bad liverpool situation.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,629 ✭✭✭googled eyes


    Benteke won't be playing for us very long....

    Has more shots than any other player in the premier league


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,105 ✭✭✭mada999


    Has Benteke ever been
    (a) in the box when the ball comes in
    (b) ballside of the defender
    or
    (c) all of the above?

    he's actually the white version of Carroll


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,225 ✭✭✭marklazarcovic


    geared up for a hammers breakaway couple of goals

    He has over done it today in all fairness

    At least Carroll isn't afraid to head the ball.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 51,342 ✭✭✭✭That_Guy


    The passing in this game has been absolute garbage.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,791 ✭✭✭✭Charlie19


    I wish someone would pick up that bag.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,629 ✭✭✭googled eyes


    Pass and lose, that's the Liverpool groove


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 36,480 ✭✭✭✭BorneTobyWilde


    Benteke can retain and play it on ground
    I see no reason why he is getting high balls to him always
    He is no NIall Quinn.
    Not his fault. He can play

    Totally agree, we are actually not playing to his strengths...

    Bombing down the wing and crossing at the byline is what we want.........


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,404 ✭✭✭✭Vicxas


    Done

    Just done


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,948 ✭✭✭✭Osmosis Jones


    Fcuking criminal again, the most obvious goal too.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,996 ✭✭✭✭billymitchell


    Game over!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,592 ✭✭✭brevity


    Not stopping the cross again.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,292 ✭✭✭GreNoLi


    Some header, nice cross.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,987 ✭✭✭Kerrigooney
