Liverpool FC Team Talk, Gossip, Rumours 2020/2021

~Rebel~

Feels a lot like the Fulham game, where it's not just them sitting back, they're actively pushing and running more than us. They look sharper and more athletic, and we just look so tired and heavy legged. Need to get a new barista on board I think!

Worst performance I've seen in a while. Very worrying

Fromvert

Midfield are being pressed when the ball is passed to them. Ox isn't good enough to either shield the ball and turn out of the press or pass it around it. He's not involved and is just losing it when he is.

He needs hooking.

Fromvert

How is that a foul

citytillidie

lol joke again from the ref

Pepp1989

We can't beat the press. Which is bizarre with 5 midfielders on the pitch.

De Bhál

Fermino misses another tap in

kingshankly

So easy for Southampton

Salah the dirty fecker fouling the keeper ????

SM01

How was that deemed a Salah foul on Forster there?!?

awec

Changes need made at half time, this is total guff. We can’t do the usual of waiting til 10/15 mins to go before changing anything.

~Rebel~

Would maybe have Shaq on for Ox second half. Bit more skill and guile moving into their half.

machiavellianme

I miss Jota

Utopia Parkway

Brutal stuff. Looked tired and disinterested.

Ref blew the whistle so would not have counted anyways, even though it was never a free kick

Salah touched it last, and came across the southampton player.

Southampton beating the press with ease.

Desperate to blow the whistle in case the ball hits the hit, to rule out a VAR check.

Ken Tucky

Ffs that decision is shocking..
I'm nearly going blue moon here with conspiracy theories.

Ikozma

Hendo back in midfield please, as we are being destroyed, bring on shaq too for any of the front 3 as they are equally bad so far

Pepp1989

I think hendo back to cm with Phillips for ox.

We have to beat the press

Ah I know, still, he took the shot and missed

BillyHasMates

Southampton pressing very well. We are struggling to beat the press and are having massive difficulty transitioning the ball in to midfield. Long passing has been ****. Southampton still look more dangerous than us and more likely to score next. Ominous.

Southampton missing more than Liverpool

awec

We had a counter attack there and the ball ended up back with Allison.

We’ve been doing too much sideways and backwards passing the past while.

Muahahaha

balls, wont get many chances, gotta do better Mo

super_furry

Salah and Mane look absolutely bolloxed again.

Ikozma

Hopeless, clueless, brainless half of football there

~Rebel~

Agh, finally a decent move there, balls that Salah just couldn't keep it down. Much better mixture of switching play, and driving in.

DrumSteve

Alongside this ****e, we have to listen to martin ****ing tyler.

****ing hell.

jebidiah

Thiago and Ox complete anonymous. For differing reasons. Barely passing to Thiago. Midfield is totally absent.

Switches at half time, being in Williams and let Henderson dictate the game from midfield. Go back to our natural game.

theoneeyedman

Midfield completely over ran and outplayed here, dare I say missing Hendo and Fab?

Southampton pressing high, but with the pace we have that should mean space bahind the back 4,mkx it up a bit and do direct now and again. Lucky to be in this game at all.

Osmosis Jones

Mane with 3 touches too many every time he gets the ball

DrumSteve

How did Wijnaldum keep that ball there

It’ll probably be Jones on 80 mins!

SlickRic

Pathetic half of football.

machiavellianme

Pity we can't have 5 subs. The problem would be which 5. Very few even trying.
A truly dismal first half.

citytillidie

lol these officials are a joke

razorblunt

Classic officials covering themselves after that corner.

yourdeadwright

Its negligence if we dont go out and buy 2 CB,
We need Fabhino and Hendo, in midfield
We are absolutely awful

The Mig

Bleeding dire lads

monkey9

I can't believe the ref assistant has pretended the ball went out of play from the corner there just to help the ref out because it should have been a throw in the first place. :rolleyes:

DrumSteve

wtf did he raise the flag for

Pepp1989

Atrocious officiating just the cherry on top of the absolute sh*t cake that liverpool baked that half.

Good luck fixing that Klopp in 15mins.

Charlie19

No shots on target.

citytillidie

Lines man can see a ball go out that never went out but missed the Southampton player with a choke hold on Salah 5 yards away from him lol

DrumSteve

this team looks constipated at the moment

Or it bounces 5 yards away from him after a woeful first touch. Wretched either way.

Chesty08

We are really up against it this year.

For the first time I think we are throwing this league away. Things really not going our way which is never a good sign
