Liverpool v Leicester match thread

[tony]

Be interesting to see Firminio's stats, but I wouldn't be surprised if he achieved a pass completion rate of 0% - another abortion of a performance

 

[Red Astaire]

Prevent them from playing ?

Oh how we've fallen much.

Oh do shut up - Positive stuff please

 

[KopRed]

Benteke is shite.

Henderson looks more and more like a limited player, nothing from him.

Coutinho showed some nice touches but has to stop shooting on sight.

Firmino, I don't exactly know where he plays or what is he supposed to do.

Defence looking ok, Lovren commanding.

Clyne can't cross a ball to save his life, really how much are these guys paid again?

 

[kingjulian]

Firmino worked hard trying to avoid being in all the right areas...


Something is wrong with him...

 

[SummerOnions]

Origi was good. Where is firmino? Seen him with one moment and the rest he isn't there

We'll probably lose to a late goal

 

[rurikbird]

Overall pretty positive first half, hope for even better performance in the 2nd. Benteke's work-rate isn't anywhere near Origi's, but maybe he can finish a chance – let's see. Hendo and Clyne have been very good.

Firmino tracked back to win the ball several times, can't fault his work-rate, but doesn't see enough of the ball in attack.

What are the available options;
Allen , Lucas, Texeira... hardly inspiring

 

[Comical Aly]

Lallana has a beautiful first touch. He could please a woman with his feet.

And then let her down with no end product.

Ignore the crest on their kit - they are the form team in the league and we've suffocated them. Coming off the back of three gutless performances of our own this is an encouraging showing so far.

 

[gene hughes]

I hangoverslept the first half. Are we still a bunch of fannies?

 

[rurikbird]

Mahrez hardly got the ball, but when he did, oh boy... Almost unstoppable on this form, Moreno was beaten twice as if he wasn't there. Kante playing well and their defense is well-drilled and focused.

We're not. We've been watching the match.

 

[darkstarexodus]

Great duel between Can and Mahrez/Kante. Unlucky to get the foul called against.

 

[mom]

Lovren another player reinvented under Klopp?

 

[Mystic]

Mignolets fucking passing.

 

[Mystic]

Sakho's first pass was poor, but why the fuck did Mignolet give it back to him when he was clearly under pressure.

 

[Molbystwin]

Benteke will score and we will win.

 

[willby]

Great defender but can't get an attacking cross through -Clyne

 

[Markeh]

fuck off Henderson play on

 

[darkstarexodus]

Vardy taking a puff off a Ventolin inhaler. Does he have asthma? Thought salbutamol was banned drug without therapeutic exemption?

 

[Markeh]

Benteke....

 

[darkstarexodus]

Fuck off Benteke.

Amazing ball from Henderson, tons of support and no fucking shot on goal.

 

[Mystic]

Henderson's passing is so so good.

 

[hmmmmm1]

Did anyone have any faith in bentake running onto that ball from.

Awful

 

[Mystic]

To be fair to Benteke, if the pass went where it was supposed to, it was the right option.

 

[Raz]

Christ we are muck! 0-1 all over this.

 

[kingjulian]

Lovren and Sakho competing with each other on who giftwraps the ball to the oppo the best...

 

[willby]

Great play by Henderson to win the ball and what a pass to Benteke... only one outcome. ..

 

[Mystic]

I honestly thought Sturridge was next to his girlfriend, apparently that was a bloke.

 

[Markeh]

moreno

what a shit ball, you could literally see that coming as he made the run up
