Liverpool v Leicester match thread

[darkstarexodus]

Not much in it so far. We are dominating possession as expected but haven't made too much of it yet. They've had the odd flash of threat but nothing too worrying.

 

[Mystic]

Ah yes, the infamous "defenders can have a physical battle with players but attackers cant" refereeing mentality.

 

[hmmmmm1]

We defo showing more aggression that the watford game

clyne done well

Llanna should have done better with his chance though

Would love Kante here

 

[darkstarexodus]

Let's get these Kantes!

 

[darkstarexodus]

Well struck by Can, nice technique.

 

[Mystic]

On a side of that, I'm happy we're actually fighting for the ball in this game, we've probably only bothered to do that because Leicester are the current hot thing in the league, but still it's nice.

 

[Markeh]

unlucky Origi

 

[darkstarexodus]

Good from Origi there but tough angle to finish.

 

[Mystic]

It may be a year or two away, but there is a great player inside Origi.

I thought so at first but on replay Origi did wrap an arm around his shoulder.

We seem to be taking them seriously. As we should be.

 

[Mystic]

Oh shit, Firmino's playing.

 

[Mystic]

We seem to be taking them seriously. As we should be.

Yep, indeed, if only we took the likes of Watford and Newcastle just as seriously.

 

[Markeh]

unlucky again, wrong decision probably

 

[Markeh]

Firmino is playing?

 

[darkstarexodus]

Origi doing well again there to create a chance for himself. Earning his place today so far.

 

[Mystic]

Sakho really should have won that header.

 

[darkstarexodus]

Yep, indeed, if only we took the likes of Watford and Newcastle just as seriously.

That's the frustrating thing - we didn't show up at all for those games. Especially the Watford game, they're having a great season and we acted like cunts.

 

[darkstarexodus]

Sakho really should have won that header.

That Vardy popped up at goal? Yeah though Sakho badly mistimed that one.

 

[darkstarexodus]

2-0 City already. Swansea up 1-0. Rest of games still scoreless.

 

[darkstarexodus]

Lots of room for Moreno on the wing. Several times now. Hopefully can continue to find that space and put early crosses in.

Lallana great work rate as usual.

 

[Mystic]

That's the frustrating thing - we didn't show up at all for those games. Especially the Watford game, they're having a great season and we acted like cunts.

And unfortunately that's the major issue with our squad for me, Klopp will address it, but it'll take time.

 

[willby]

Firnonymous

 

[darkstarexodus]

Firmino attempts a worldy but swings and misses.

 

[Mystic]

I like that we aren't letting them get into a rhythm, if they look like they're going to do something good, tackle them hard but not dangerously, the way it should be.

 

[darkstarexodus]

And unfortunately that's the major issue with our squad for me, Klopp will address it, but it'll take time.

Hope so. We've had that problem back to Benitez of getting up for the big games and coming out flat for the "lesser" opponent.s

 

[Mystic]

We're playing so high, it's working now, working well at strangling them, but it's a dangerous game.

 

[Markeh]

Kante the anti Lucas, getting his foot in consistently without fouling

 

[tombrown]

Origi injured
