Chelsea v Liverpool - Match Thread

[Markeh]

Does anyone know if this is our fifth consecutive home defeat?

if it is then I’m surprised it hasn’t been mentioned

Yep.

Breaking RECORDS!

Yup, never been done before.

The one thing that always struck me about Klopp was how we could raise to a new level against the big teams when needed, and that could push us against the rest of the top sides to be above them. We've lost that completely. The tactical nous, the edge, the knowledge we find a way through. I genuinely think if we don't make the semis of the CL then Klopp is gone at the end of the season, whether cos he walks or not

The only way he's gone is if *he* walks ... but the owners can't fire him - they didn't back him in the summer. They're as much to blame as the injuries, VAR and Klopp himself.

 

[Farkmaster]

Would we be any worse off parking the bus with 9 behind the ball and Nat Phillips up top with Mo playing off him

Yes.

 

[LeTallecWiz]

Yup, never been done before.

We will struggle to win the rest of the season ... we're a bang average team lacking confidence from the top down, and the players that are confident are taking off early or not given minutes

 

[Red Mullet]

Chelsea players are cunts

 

[LeTallecWiz]

Btw, WE GOT A SHOT ON GOAL!!!
That's like a goal at Anfield nowadays.

We've lost the foundation of our team due to injury, and we need some fresh recruitment.

Klopp is rightfully untouchable.

 

[Bradley]

Hope Milner gets a chance to rattle Kovacic

 

[Raz]

There’s no belief out there anymore. If Klopp hasn’t lost the dressing room already, he is certainly going about it in the right way.

 

[Shadey]

Still pissed off about that penalty we got cheated out of.

A non-dickhead post. Should get it framed.

No he has not

Yeah of course. I just see how this team is playing and I can't see how he turns this around without 5 new players and a new vision to build a squad capable of winning titles again. This side has completely fallen apart and I don't see how we build it back together with glue

This season is 8.5 months long, and Klopp's let our insipid performances go on for more than 2 months now. Sure, we've got players injured, but when he's made zero accommodation for those injuries, there are zero excuses.

Belief is such a dumb thing to talk about. We aren't less productive because we aren't clapping our hands for tinkerbell, there's a wholly logical knowledge that we can't press as high.

 

[LeTallecWiz]

Over the last few months, this team has been one of the worst teams in our club's history.
Let's call a spade a spade.

There are dozens of extenuating circumstances.

 

[Jerry Laser]

Have only looked like fighting in the game for the last 10 minutes.... Where the fuck was that effort from the start???

 

[Shay_K]

YNWA

 

[SummerOnions]

This is true. But we've had to play through them and I think that is going to leave a few scars...

 

[Jerry Laser]

Hate seeing Jurgen look so broken....

 

[Farkmaster]

This team was going to need to be dismantled. It's only happening a year earlier with less trophies than it probably deserved, but that's just some shit luck.

 

[i_rushie]

Extenuating circumstances... might actually be right if he actually acknowledged them in what he sends out onto the pitch.

 

[Fabio]

I'm happy I didn't watch it

 

[davud graham]

Fuck off reds that was shite again. We look so ordinary and lacking in fight, I'm 50 years of age and I've never seen anything like it at Anfield. I don't want to hear about excuses because it just isn't good enough.

 

[LeTallecWiz]

Hate seeing Jurgen look so broken....

The fan base is broken.
The team is broken.
The manager looks broken too - at least he has a valid reason.

 

[Frogfish]

I switched off 1 minute before the end .... can't believe we didn't then score.

 

[ajco07]

Losing is bad but losing five on the bounce at home for the first time ever is inexcusable there is no fight in the team Milner should be getting brought on to hold a lead not chase one
