[Oval85]

Love that team. Full of confidence. My guess is Joelinton will shine again and run havoc

Trent too. Quality still coming into their team.

3-0, Big Joe hattrick

[seaside nipper]

Hopefully we shine today.
Hope ASM is pivotal.
Hope that clown Mike Dean doesn’t have undue influence on this today from his VAR camp.
It’s the hope that kills

It'll either be a great first 15 minutes then 75 minutes of pain. Or 90 minutes of pain.

Chin up. Back in september I wouldn't even watch this game because of the pain it would cause me

[originallad]

Pretty good 15 minutes. Liverpool slowing the tempo down now and taking control.

[bodacious benny]

Officials got that right tbf, no foul.

[Cal]

Deja vu

[Toondes]

Defo not a foul . Schar kicked him.

[Donkey Toon]

Yeah, was a goal. Schar fouled Milner if anything.

[Toondes]

We look petrified whenever we get the ball. Everyone bar maxi and Bruno are trying to get rid of it as quickly as possible . Also it’s going to be a long day if we’re resorting to long ball already.

[bodacious benny]

Tbf pretty much every team in the league outside of City and possibly Chelsea is pretty scared of the pace and threat of Liverpool’s attack.

Not too unhappy, still in the game at HT.

[Donkey Toon]

wtf! That wasn't a head injury or collision, he headed the ball for fucks sake. You stop play if a player heads it now then or is it just when Liverpool do it?

[seaside nipper]

It’s all a bit meh tbh

[originallad]

Could have been 4 or 5 nil down by now.

[bodacious benny]

Dubravka been excellent. Think we could play for a month and not breach their defence.

[originallad]

Well. We didn't get tonked. But attacking wise we were pretty toothless.

[bodacious benny]

Well, not an unexpected result. We didn’t have enough guile to trouble them and they were equally wasteful at times. Expected nothing from the game so a narrow defeat isn’t the end of the world and wasn’t a mauling like Spurs away.
