Chelsea vs Liverpool Match Thread

[Squiggles]

We need one more because we're mental

 

[cloggypop]

We're gonna win the league

 

[cloggypop]

Commentators sound a bit upset here.

 

[DHSC]

Loving how Matip and Lovren are dealing with Costa.

 

[MaBigTip]

Wow.

So Henderson has kinda taken all that chat about not being able to finish to heart, huh?

That was fucking unsaveable.

He did it against City two years ago and had a few other stunners. His first goal for us was an impressive curling finish with his left.

We need one more because we're mental

I'll only relax when we score two or three more, or the last two minutes if it stays like this.

Wonderful goal from Hendo.. A proper worldy that was. What I would like to see though is a clean sheet with our first choice CB pairing..

 

[Modo]

Good foul by Matip there. Pretty much telling the midfielders " Am I going to have to do your job for you?"

Relax..Lucas is not playing and neither is Sakho..

Commentators sound a bit upset here.

One of them is Gary "They should close the M62 cos it links us to Liverpool" Neville.

The other one is Martin Manc Cunt Tyler

Thirty odd years of experience is telling me that team there in red don't often do things the easy way.

Liverpool have scored 10 goals past Leicester, Arsenal and Chelsea in two-and-a-half games.

OptaJoe ‏@OptaJoe 27m27 minutes ago
64 - Dejan Lovren has ended a goal drought of 64 Premier League games, with his last goal coming for Southampton in January 2014. Unmarked.

15 - Since Jurgen Klopp took charge, Liverpool have scored 15 goals from outside the box in the PL, five more than any other side. Range.

 

[Modo]

Coutinho goal coming

 

[rurikbird]

Great run by Coutinho, Kante could only stop him with a foul

 

[Modo]

Great job Hendo

 

[Farkmaster]

Good piece of defending to recover by Lovren.

 

[Shadey]

10/10 first half performance

 

[Hansern]

Fantastic first half. Still waiting for some monumental fuck ups, and us losing.

But fuck me. What a half! Brilliant!

I reckon that was a nailed on yellow card. Coutinho had players on and it was looking like a goalscoring opportunity.

 

[Shay_K]

HT

 

[MaBigTip]

This is brill

 

[Oncy]

Fantastic first half.
Lovren absolutely amazing. Closely followed by Henderson and Matip

Forwards havnt even got started yet.

 

[FoxForceFive]

HT.

Very good first half. Not brilliant cos we let them in a bit too much when we ran out of steam, but very good indeed.

We need to come out all guns blazing second half & try to put this to bed in the first ten minutes cos we are gonna let them back in for at least twenty minutes of the second half.

 

[HC]

Wow, so far so good. Who sent hennderson a shit load of print screens of the shite he's been rightly getting on here.

He's playing like a man possessed, again

 

[dmishra]

What a superb, efficient performance by us far. Didn't really expect us to have this much control over the game.

Matip has been magnificent. Henderson has been superb, and Wijnaldum is having his best game for us so far.

Sturridge however has been pretty lazy. I'd expect Origi to come on for him at about 60 mins.

 

[keniget]

I fully expect calamity in a way only Liverpool can deliver in the second half but fair is fair, the team delivered a near perfect performance there.

Man of the match has to be Henderson... by a distance. The last 20-25 mins when Chelsea tried to come out a little bit more he really held things together when a couple of the others started looking a little lost. Now don't fuck it up in the second half.

 

[Mystic]

This is great and all, but I don't feel we've played that great, Chelsea will no doubt come out strongest and we need to up our game to deal with it, I won't feel confident until we have a four goal lead.

 

[FoxForceFive]

Carra looks like he's DJing in the worst bar ever.

Totally agree, but Sturridge hasn't had a lot of opportunities to do anything.
