Liverpool FC Team Talk, Gossip, Rumours 2024/25

When is Jota due back?

We created enough chances to win today but we're not clinical enough in front of goal.

Think he’s back training next week.

We thrashed them twice in stats, it is what it is, an unique fixture. A good point, take it move on.

I don't think he's far away, maybe another 2 weeks.

Biggest issue now is our game management which is appalling. Cruising at H/T but you knew that we'd give them a chance and they'd probably take it. But how we played after they scored was remarkable really - just random busrts of play, nothing cohesive. And I have no idea how we've become so painfully bad at counter-attacking. Used to be a jewel in the crown. A difficult watch. All not lost but we've thrown away the initiative.

For all the chances we miss and I am not denying that but at the end of the day,defences win titles and ours is not good enough. Feel for Quansah today but he shouldn't of been in that position in the first place. It was madness playing Konate thurs night,and if he was fit enough to be on the bench then why couldn't he start? Is he unable to play through a bit of pain?.

I don't think we have been able to play our strongest team since Newcastle at home in the first game of the new year. It was eventually going to catch us and it did today. Them are the breaks.

Very hard to win a title when Trent,Jota,Konate,Salah and Allison miss nearly half the season

Incorrect, it's not in your hands anymore

Not in our hands at all, we have to overturn a sizeable GD. Today was costly

No, since it's just as much in Arsenal's hands to not let that happen.

Nunez, yes. His lack of composure absolutely kills us in that sort of game.

Diaz is brilliant enough at everything else, that he's less of a concern.

The biggest problem today was probably wastefulness, but what we also saw is what we miss without Jota and Trent in particular. It's a string of games too far for some.

If Trent was in some of the space Bradley was in, good God, he'd have destroyed them with his quality. And if Jota had some of the chances we created, we'd have walked the game.

It technicality still is as GD is in your hands

Still think Arsenal will drop points, city i'm fairly sure won't.

If Arsenal take full pts away to Wolves, Spurs, United, Chelsea, then Klopp himself should present the Trophy to them. Arsenal have 4 defeats already. We only have 1, and the draw at Spurs we were awarded 0 pts for.

Seems a bit far fetched to talk about us outscoring Arsenal while we are so frustrating in front of goal. We’ll need them to drop points. Hopefully they can stay in the CL and add some massive energy sapping midweek games to their schedule.

Curtis was pure muck when he came on, how many times did he lose the ball dilly dallying in midfield.

The away match run that we have after the Palace game is going to be tough.

If they come through that winning all the points available I'd start to believe

But we really need the other two teams to have problems along the way

And in fairness to them, they don't do the nonsense we served up today

? Quansah had a great game. One error which cost us. He helped set up the penalty by winning the ball, progressing it upfield and a lovely blind pass to (Macca?) before Elliott was played in.

If we want to win the league we need these 2 to progress to the semi's. I know it means one of them in the final but who gives a shite, that comp lost its aura when they failed to ban City a few seasons ago.

Chelsea usually have a say in the run in in some way so you'd never know what might still happen.

Lets be fair, it wasn't normal wear and tear that had Konate out today,, but a horrible scissor tackle that could ha E caused serious knee ligament damage, and there was no action taken. Again late in today, another leg breaking tackle by Casemiro, and another easy yellow card. Players have to be protected from these dangerous tackles, but it's not happening.

Quansah made a bad mistake, buy it's one that he would normally get away with. Remember, he would have been behind Joel, Virgil, Joe, Ibra for centre back places, and wouldn't have been expected to be starting a game like today his progress has been phenomenal.

Tyr problems today were at the other end of the pitch.

Ah I don't know. We had a ridiculous amount of chances and opportunities to win that game.

This is on the players.

surely this is a breach of contract how the feck can you get a pre match meal in during Ramadan should be made eat

Time to head home from the pub
