Boro vs Liverpool Match Thread

Status
Not open for further replies.
It's weird that there's no mention of why Matip's absence has not been mentioned at all. I've been searching and it seems that there's just the assumption that he has a recurring injury. Any news?
 
I notice there's no post-match thread, or lengthy set of comments in this thread - people don't really give a fuck when we win eh?

Most people only enjoy criticising players, so when we win they haven't so much ammunition.

Vide the thread devoted to criticising Clyne who is arguably our most consistently good player.
 
And the people who lambasted him use the fact that it was his cross that lala scored from as further reason to criticise him for not crossing enough

The Echo and a few others reported it before the game. Travelled with the squad to Boro but complained about his ankle/foot. I guess Klopp didnt want to risk him given that we play so many games the next few weeks.
 
That was most enjoyable

I spare a thought for u on a day like this. But no worries... We will draw or even loose again and then you are back on a high. At least we will concede or win by smaller margin so you can hammer on with your boring points. Hang in there mate... The xmas program is demanding enough to have a few presents for ya!!
 
This line of someone wanting us to lose or a player to fail is really stupid.

Ive known Brendan what 12 years? And so have you all. And you know better.

There are players I have hated but every time they play I want them to prove me wrong and its the same for every proper football fan.
Of which Brendan is definitely one.

Wow. Some right touchy posters in here..

We are all agreeing Clyne is very good some just think he could/should improve a part of his game. Why do you all act so fucking offended by it?

I was thrilled to see him hit that cross, exactly what we was hoping to see more from him..
 
I loved watching the game yesterday. Loved the win, loved Lallana, loved the 2nd goal for its 8 one touch passes that shredded the defense, loved the traveling fans, loved the players giving proper respect at the end of the game, loved Klopp's round of marginally too intimate hugs, loved the 3 points and the overdue clean sheet.

Love all around.

I acknowledge Your thoughts, and appreciate Your concern for poor Brendan. But unfortunately You are wrong.

Of course people have their own agendas. I am no better. I really disliked Hodgson getting the job as manager. I was convinced he was not the type to lead us. Ill don't have to og in details but I cringed when he even opened the mouth. Today I couldn't care less if he has success or not, and even if I wanted him to lift us I just knew this was a bad idea.

The Brendan case is a curious case. Maybe he was not very good at something earlier in life and maybe he found a niche were he could prove people wrong on the internet. I don't know. But any more agendadriven bullshit is hard to find. The Draw at West Ham were both Karius and Firmino made no impact, you just know he will start the post match thread within seven Seconds after the match. When we hammer Boro away better sneak in a one liner somewhere and let ther rage rest until we actually fuck up again. If i.e Firmino Plays well, the eager is not there, as he actually would have to rate him. That would prove him wrong, hence better avoid it. It is easy to see through and it a Natural thing for any human being. You protect Your views and try to portray yourself in a good way. But when you pretend to be smart, and proves to be not too smart it looks a bit stupid. Hammering the same stupidity into every post doesn't help. So of course Brendan doesn't want Firmino to prove him wrong. He wants him to prove him right. Liverpool winning - fine... Firmino playing well - not so fine.

Commentator mentioned something about a reoccurrence of an ankle injury that kept him out of the Bournemouth game.
 
Partly. There's also the matter of particular posters' well-earned reputations. It's a little unrealistic to expect that that won't affect the responses they get.

Are you including the years Brendan was banned?
 
The "hardline on Clyne" thread was based on a statistic that Clyne had only achieved one assist in some 999 games. To me, this only illustrates how meaningless football statistics tend to be. I have been watching Clyne going forward and putting in good crosses for a couple of seasons now.

I agree with the overall sentiment here, stats are definitely not telling everything.. in fairness I was the one who brought the stats to the table as I was curious to see how he had fared in that department. Was a bit surprised to be honest with the lack of assists, as I like you have seen him as being industrious in attack from time to time.

For me it's been more than a handful of very poor passes in very good positions that have annoyed me but as his Soton stats show (sorry) he has been hitting better number earlier on in his career. I am confident he will now get more assists to his name these coming months. Which would help us as a team obv.

Or you it could be down to the researched and proven fact that people are way more likely to comment when disappointed of annoyed with something than they are when they are satisfied of happy.

Have you never worked in a field where you ask for customer feedback?

You will always get more more comments from the negative side, which are longer and more detailed.

The happy people either don't bother at all of obly write a line or too.

That's the general, non-committed customers.
Brand advocacy/loyalty is different, and this site and other LFC sites are built around brand advocates.
 
Arguably our finest 2nd half performance away from home this season. Looked so in control and dominant all over the pitch.

Lallana and Mane the pick of the bunch going forward. Thought Klavan was really good at the back as well.

Cracking 3 points and so badly needed. Bring on the Blueshite.

Ya but we are on a Liverpool forum, we all know we won and are happy about it, we don't need to keep repeating it to each other.

If we were on an open forum like football365 say, then I would expect much more vocal support from us when we win.
