Liverpool v Arsenal - League Cup - Match Thread

[Treboeth]

Why is everyone shitting the bed?

Kids playing in a Cup we don`t want to bother with.
Just enjoy the game and maybe we win .

COME ON YOU RED MEN

 

[Shadey]

1-3 ffs

Our two great midfield hopes have been pretty disappointing too.

Ox dreadful and Keita nowhere near influential enough.

It all stems from lack of confidence in the defense, IMO. The midfielders don't know whether to run forward or back to bail the defenders out. There is no steady platform to build attacks.

 

[FoxForceFive]

Very sloppy that.

 

[hmmmmm1]

Gifting goals. Game over

 

[tombrown]

Sweet muvvafucking jesus

 

[Markeh]

Oh no

 

[manwithnoname]

An embarrassing first half of sloppy shithouse football

 

[Aidan O' Neill]

That's bullshit from Elliot. Complete blind pass

 

[Mystic]

Shame, but we are playing our under 21s.

 

[Shay_K]

Early Christmas presents

 

[FoxForceFive]

Offside again. Where the fuck is VAR? 😗

 

[Shadey]

This is painful.

 

[keniget]

Wow terrible

 

[rurikbird]

1:3. The kids have crumbled. Not ready for this level.

 

[LeTallecWiz]

we're gifting goals to arsenal ...

 

[Brizzle]

Poor from Harvey, but the whole team is lacking control at the moment.

 

[hmmmmm1]

Some woeful defending. Could have been 4

 

[Raz]

Look, I don’t care about this cup, many of you don’t. But we don’t want to be on the end of a spanking regardless kids or not. It was, as stated, a bad fucking move by Klopp.

 

[Dreambeliever]

Shame, but we are playing our under 21s.

Since when are Milner, Ox, Keita, Lallana Gomez and Origi U21? That’s over half the side.

 

[FoxForceFive]

You can see the huge gulf in experience in these sides now.

 

[LeTallecWiz]

No they haven’t. Give it up ffs. Keita has been invisible.

you do realize he's looking up for passes to the front 3 constantly is passing back?
that tells you what's happening in front of him.

 

[SummerOnions]

Not sure 4-3-3 works for players who aren't used to it

 

[MomoWASright]

Stupid from Elliot and Gomez running towards the midfield. That was just basic stuff.

 

[Farkmaster]

We should just not bother with this competition. The drop off from our first team is insane and doesn't bode well for the future, but some of these players just shouldn't be out there.

 

[bluebell]

I did say we ought to sell Ox.

 

[LeTallecWiz]

You can see the huge gulf in experience in these sides now.

that's all it is really ... ox has really turned this game for them - got a great pass from Lallana to put us up 2-0, fluffs it ... 2 seconds later, gives the ball in the center of the pitch cheaply and 1-1.

 

[SummerOnions]

We should just not bother with this competition. The drop off from our first team is insane and doesn't bode well for the future, but some of these players just shouldn't be out there.

It's worth it just to swerve the argument that our backups are that good

 

[Tinto]

Why’s isn’t Adrian in goal again?
