Liverpool FC Team Talk/Gossip/Rumours 2018

Is this the difference with last season?

Last year Palace would have equalised, now we defend set pieces and score in the last minute after not playing at their best.

A lovely ugly win.

Sour face is on.

Mane reborn

Job done, only team yet to concede a goal

Lovely controlled win. Becker and Van Dijk are the shìt :cool:

Such a cliché, but these are the games that must be won to have any hope at mounting a title challenge. Few more results like this and I might begin to believe it’s a possibility.

Zapp Brannigan

Alisson's distribution is amazing!

LuckyLloyd

Very good result, solid performance

Agent Coulson

Gini was the monster we needed in midfield all along.

VVD won both the free kick and the corner. He's a colossus.

He's amazing.

Resident "experts" didn't want us to sign him last year.

Cheaper and better out there they said.

MD1990

Van Dijk best CB in league easily.

Alisson excellent too.

Palace. Terrible pitch, terrible team, terrible everything.

giveitholly

Really think mane could outshine salah this year which isn't a bad thing

BorneTobyWilde

I'm sure we will thrash someone soon for 8 and increase our GD

Van Dijk is a monster.

Yakult

great win

Well earned three points but by God it had a fair few nervy moments.

Thought they did well to be honest. Made it a very tough game. Created their chances to get something out of it too.

That was a good win. Always knew Palace would be difficult, but the Pool never gave up and the defence was supreme. Onwards and upwards. #YNWA

citytillidie

Mane to step up since Salah will attract all the defenders

SlickRic

VVD was easily MOTM.

A fúcking elegant mountain.

Its grand anyway because we sign A Becker during the summer anyway.

Don’t get this at all.

You could lose this and win all your other games to mount a title challenge. :pac:

Harry Palmr

They've all got lovely bottoms. Even Milner.

It’s probably going to go unnoticed but I thought that was one of Wijnaldum’s best games for Liverpool. Played that holding role perfectly.

Agent Coulson

Alisson has the calm about him we haven't seen in a goalkeeper in a very long time at the club.

J Mysterio

We're gonna win the league!!!

ShamoBuc

3 points, get in !
Tough game. Never played with any real fluency. It was a pen. It was a Red.

This team now look like they can be 1 up away from home and see out a game, something we have not been able to do in many an occasion. Nice to get the second though.

Played 2 Won 2 For 6 Against 0 have to be happy with that!

Said it before but easily the most underrated player in the squad.

That is a lie. It wasn't a terrible result!

SuperTortoise

When they has those set pieces at the end for a split second i found myself saying oh crap, but then i remembered we have Virgil and i thought we'll be fine whatever comes in he'll win it.

Solid performance without being outstanding, big 3 points, Palace will do well this year tidy team.

Agent Coulson

To think all the thread experts wanted to sell Gini as he was sh1t and no good.

MD1990

Lovren has a big task to get back into the 11.

Gomez was superb. Still only 21 & may still make mistakes but he will be a very good CB.
Recovery pace in the 1st half was crucial vs Zaha no way Lovren makes that ball.

Agent Coulson

No team will ever want a corner against us soon.

Sofa Spud

Can relax now - that was a great result, not a perfect performance but Keita is gonna be a dream to watch this season if that continues. Not worried that Salah and Bobby seemed a bit off, they'll hit their stride soon enough and Big Al's distribution is such an obvious step up in quality and another clean sheet will keep Linda happy....

Harry Palmr

The difference between this game and a year ago is summed up by Zaha looking like he might pose a real threat but not actually posing a real threat. He never really got the ball and the space he wanted and TAA never sold himself unlike last season.

Knex*

Best players were the two Dutch lads. Koeman will be very happy watching that!

Agreed and his distribution is excellent. He will create attacks leading to goals for us.

Salvation Tambourine

One of those games that when you looked back at it after the event they really didn't have many chances. Incredibly nervous during the game but retrospectively it wasn't that bad.

His distribution was flawless, short or long and the timing.

Still early days but it's looking good.

ricero

Great result. One of the tougher away grounds outside the top 6 sides.

Bloody happy with that! You need a quota of those types of wins if you want to be in with a chance of winning a league title.

razorblunt

I thought Wijnaldum was excellent. Fabinho will have to wrestle that starting position off him.

BorneTobyWilde

VVD taking about clean sheet's , he has his personal goals too. It helps that the defence wants to concede ZERO goals this season.

Ah here. He’d plenty of really poor games last year, but injuries got him back into the team.
Didn’t want him sold, but he needed to step up, and the options in mid may be pushing him to perform.
He keeps playing like this, he keeps starting.

Was cursing the daft punk for giving away that free kick in the 92nd minute

That's a phenomenal result. If Palace play like that they could certainly get results in their derbies, and Utd would get mauled in their current state.

Pretty much everyone was very good. A little bit of trouble playing through midfield but I was really impressed how well Palace worked to get pressure on the ball carrier.

A little bit of rust from some of the world cup lads but we're looking more solid, which is taking lot of the pressure off them, and I think Keitas going to get off the mark soon and help with goals.

I'm not going to lose the rag if we drop points, but, so long as we don't, optimism is certainly called for.
