Cup talk - Spurs at home

[Hansern]

I'm annoyed as fuck. It's midnight for me, and I've stayed up to watch this on the tv. Except some German cup game has gone into extra time, and they're still showing that. Will switch to our game only once this is over. [emoji35]

The Norewgian channel thats showing the match has lost the connection with England or whatever. Iow no game here either for the timing being. Fucking shite thing to happen in 2016

 

[Mystic]

Imagine the hysteria if Karius dealt with a cross like that.

 

[Modo]

Mignolet flapping at a cross. The state of our keepers....

 

[dmishra]

Lol, some German dude tried a panenka in this penalty shoot out, and failed horribly.

 

[LeTallecWiz]

The reverse jinx worked.

Huzzah!

I told my bro he'd score hat trick tonight ... he should have had one already!

 

[cloggypop]

Fabio revealed his reverse jinx far too early and he instantly went shite.

 

[manwithnoname]

Poor spell this. Can't get hold of it at all

 

[Mystic]

This game is well shit.

 

[Skullflower]

He's certainly goth potential

Your ma's goth in bed

Yep same. It's BEIN and their excuse is Adverse weather conditions in Liverpool. Idiots. Thank fuck for Mobdro!!

 

[Raz]

This game is well shit.

Yeah it's like 2 reserve teams playing!

 

[keniget]

Midfield really struggling now and Spurs well on top.

Not too bad whilst they don't create much but would be nice to see a bit more of us on the break at least.

 

[Modo]

Thought Lucas was crap Hansern

 

[Mystic]

Thought Lucas was crap Hansern

He is.

 

[manwithnoname]

Lucas clearly bored at CB so goes into midfield to someone

Think that's the only tackle we've actually made in the midfield

 

[FoxForceFive]

Wijnaldum was a little greedy there, had good options in front of him after doing the hard work of getting past three men.

 

[Hansern]

Lucas. Fricking Lucas.

 

[FoxForceFive]

Quinn is completely up spurs arse.

 

[Hansern]

Gruijc is boss

 

[FoxForceFive]

Great ball from Grujic.

 

[FoxForceFive]

I hate short corners.

 

[manwithnoname]

I hate short corners.

As a Liverpool fan of some years, have you not grown to love them?

Incidentally, as well as being utterly inept at defending set pieces, we are also the worst in the league at scoring from them

 

[manwithnoname]

Lovely play from Lucas

 

[Raz]

Mute button firmly pressed at anfield.

 

[Hansern]

Yeah, thats why Ming is nr 2

 

[willby]

What was ming trying there?almost gave the ball away.

This has been the case for as long as I can remember. Nah, a lot longer than that!

 

[cloggypop]

Can't believe Lucas was talking to Janssen then as they walked off. Shocking stuff.

 

[Mystic]

Fuck me that was hard work. zzzZzzzZzzzz

Thoughts:
Mign - too many dangerous passes. Too much of Bravo/City stupidity it seems.
Lucas - has been really good - reading the game well, cleaning everything up. Captain's performance.
K-Stew - really happy with his performance too. Cleans everything up nicely. A really solid DM.
Studge - should have had a hat trick really but cannot fault the effort and the desire to show he belongs every minute of the game. He's playing for his career here, and it shows ... but with that hunger, and the obvious talent, he may still be able to show he has a future here.

Really happy with the kids too - they all seem to be quite able to play at a very good level (though need experience to adjust to the speed of this level):
TAA - solid debut
Ovvie - technically solid player, moves on the pitch well.
Grujic - has put himself in some really good positions. Needs game time.
