Giving the ball away early I see. Glad to see we're keeping that up! Yep, really glad of that.

5starpool

First decent move of the game by us.

Glad to see brendan is doing well. Good manager just lost his way.

Indeed.
Pressure is off now at Celtic imo, in the CL group they are in there is zero expectation of progression so unless they get absolutely battered in all the games he's pretty much guaranteed to be able to continue building a squad to get perennial CL proper qualification. If he manages to get them out of the CL group he'll have a nice bit to put on the ole CV.

Some very cool items there, they'd make a nice Christmas gift.

I hope the other half reads this thread;)

Suarez-esque.

Two of the main summer signings have improved the first team that's for sure with Matip & Mane.


Wijnaldum seems solid if unspectacular hopefully Karius it's the ground running when he gets his chance.

Pyjamarama

One thing I liked is that Matip seemed pretty calm after we conceded. Just a signal to relax and that its all ok. We need more like him. Milner looks nervous since the goal... and as for our keeper... can Karius start soon please.

Harry Palmr

Mignolet needs to be taken out in training.

Lovren's shiner was meant for Mignolet but but typical Mignolet he slipped at the wrong moment and Lovren took it instead.:pac:

I suppose it's important to remember that our "true" team hasn't appeared yet this season (in the literal sense, because of injuries to the likes of Can, Karius and our CBs).

But you'll always have players missing.

Lots of disparate parts but we haven't seen a fully formed whole all that often and I don't know what that would even be at this point.

Also, after being impressed at the beginning of his time here I'm starting to think Clyne isn't a good enough footballer to play the way we want.
He looks like your typical English lump most of the time. His passing and touch are awful.

All in all, we're playing it out from the back with 1 guy in the back 6 who's fit, match sharp, playing in position and good enough on the ball.

With Can, Karius, a better Lucas or another CB, it could be enough to turn this perpetual meltdown into something that's actually a strength, but even so, I'm not convinced those options are at the club.

Agent Coulson

Sub keeper needed on now please

Agent Coulson

Lallana under Klopp is like a new signing.

Fowler87

Get the **** in Lallana. Knew he'd score today!

Ah here come on. He was excellent and our best player last season. Out of form atm and will come good.

Pyjamarama

How good is Bobby Firmino btw. He's getting better and better too.

Agent Coulson

The new pitch look great as well.

Agent Coulson

No more than Bobby deserves

Henderson ran the show in midfield today. Its almost like it might just take him time to get used to the position. Huge positives to be taken from today. We look LETHAL in attack.

Agent Coulson

7 points from last seasons top 3 in our first 4 games that not a bad start at all.

Turtyturd

Remember when Firmino was a hairdresser who was going to be loaned out last Christmas?

Good times.

Colemania

Moreno coming on at right wing was interesting. I wonder will he be brought on as an impact sub as a winger from now on.

Grayditch

5th after the fixtures we were handed. Ah, yeah.

rob316

Absolutely lethal in attack it's actually scary. Matip looks like the man who can solve the problems at the back. Bar lucas **** up he was fairly solid.

Its like Klopp is remolding him!

"You are a winger now, Alberto"
"Ho-k boss"

Kerrigooney

Delighted with that. Was convinced we'd lose today. Great performance apart from one ridiculous mistake.

Turtyturd

Good to see Lucas' mistake didn't matter in the end. I'd say there were one or one ready to pounce on that.

Charlie19

What a glorious evening.

The front four were absolutely fantastic, along with good performances from Henderson, Miller and Clyne.

Alls good really.

Motm could of easily went to a number of players which is always a good thing but happy enough with Lallana getting the shout.

One pounced anyway, and left the thread a broken man.

Harry Palmr

That's only the turf isn't it? The whole thing is going to be re-done (watering system etc) next summer I thought.

Bring it on!

Osmosis Jones

Referees need to get their act together, two wrong offside calls today to add to the pile of them we've already had this season. And I don't know how there was nothing given for the push on Firmino.

ShamoBuc

Great performance, lots of positives, 3 more points, Anfield looked impressive and Matip and Mané in particular looked very good!

Also the Leicester goal should not have stood, but yea when he gave that free kick against Frimino in the 2nd half then how could he not have given the one against him in the 1st half.

Lick Matip is boss.

What was wrogn with it?

Vicxas

Really liking Matip, think hes a fantastic signing.

Milner is really growing into that LB role.

Charlie19

Four games in and 4 goals scored away to Arsenal and 4 goals against the Champions but still only a plus 2.

Only Watford, West Ham and Stoke have conceded more goals.:mad:

But we've turned another corner now, I'm sure of it.

One_Of_Shanks

Great result. Good perfomance.

You won't hear the words "Left back" or "Milner" a lot in the next couple of days because that only pops up when it goes wrong but he was very good today. Fair play to him.

Feel sorry for Lucas coz he was really good overall, just an awful error for the goal but such is life.

We look as good an attacking force as any team in the league when we get motoring and so much of that comes through Mane, the guy is phenomenal.

Still a tad vulnerable defensively but it's not easy when we keep having to chop and change and we havent got settled there yet.

Chuffed today anyway. Tough game coming up again and we've got plenty of room for improvement but great win and I'm fooking dying for Match Of The Day already

Is the pitch bigger now ? Looked a bit wider today

Technicality.

Leicester player entered the box before the goal kick was taken.

Worth reading just for that.

Before the ball left the area, not before it was taken. Very different things. He was miles into it actually by the time it got to Lucas and just outside the box.

Camera is now at a higher altitude because of the increase in the new stand.

People were going mad about it. I think it looked fine.
