[Oncy]

Clyne please

 

[KopRed]

We need to make a phonecall to the brain.

 

[Mystic]

This is a really strange game. We seem to be playing in 2nd gear.

 

[Red Mullet]

Do something klopp

It’s either Schick or twist

 

[FoxForceFive]

We can't hold the ball up, we can barely get in their half....

Massive worries ahoy

We're 3-0 up with 20 off minutes left.

I'm not as worried as you lot.

I'm more worried about the state of our subs warming up.

 

[Shay_K]

Nice one Bobby

 

[rurikbird]

What a save from Alisson!

 

[Holle]

Call Brains!

 

[Fabio]

Good save

 

[ILD]

Alison with a De Gea esque foot save.

Tail end of the season playing with about 16 first teamers & a few of them injured.

They're just fucking knackered, it's not a conscious decision to hold back.

 

[hmmmmm1]

3 uninspiring subs warming up. Frim unlucky

Worrying considering we've got a massive game this weekend too

 

[Red Mullet]

Firmino has new contract syndrome

 

[hmmmmm1]

Call Brains!

Klopp has hardly sat down all game.

 

[Athens]

Get though this game and I reckon we fob that one off...

Yep. His heavy rotation has delayed the physical collapse we suffered last season & we're not there yet, but so many games close together without rested players are taking their toll.

Plessis was brilliant against arsenal

Kane can do it against Chelsea

It actually wouldn't surprise me if he rests a fair few this weekend.

 

[KopRed]

Roma are starting to tire.

 

[RedStar]

Romas legs are gone. No pressing now

 

[KopRed]

All 3 subs made for Roma.

Yep. That's why I wish he played the U23+reserves vs Stoke.

 

[hmmmmm1]

Get some fresh legs on

 

[Oncy]

Everything Mane has done tonight has been great.
Lovren and Virgil have also been epic and a decent game from Gini and Henderson.

Salah, Bobby, Milner, Karius and the full backs have been poor

 

[Shadey]

Call Brains!

Yes ma lady

 

[rurikbird]

Here we go, Florenzi hacks down Mane.

 

[KopRed]

We can't give them a second wind.

Hang on!!

 

[FoxForceFive]

Yep. That's why I wish he played the U23+reserves vs Stoke.

We've a couple of weeks of rest before the final (compulsory if we get there comment here) & only need a couple of points to secure top 4. So it's not like its not working, just showing some cracks in a paper thin squad.
