West Ham post match

What a load of shit. West Ham should have won that really with some of the sitters they had.
Injuries have done us in, but our mojo has gone. Front 3 dont look like they could score in a brothel, midfield is non existent, and Alisson is now letting in shots he'd have probably saved earlier in the season. Doesn't help that he's only had 2 defenders infront of him for a few weeks.
Can't help thinking that's it now. Hope I'm wrong.
 
Can't blame allisson there.

Firmino was wank but we dont have anyone better. Or a winger. Same problems as 08/09
 
Wasn't Mark Noble supposedly a bad cunt?
He seemed very normal and refreshingly honest in his post match interview
 
The only positive is we've played shite in the last 2 games and should have lost both games.

We've come away with 2 pts.

At the end of the season, they might prove important points.

Those two points Origi could have secured have more chance to be important.
 
We’re in our wobble. We all knew we’d have one. We will come through it by smashing Bournemouth.

We’ll still win the league.

Alisson needs to sort his head out. So does Firmino. Matip is just shit.
 
How terrible of a goal was that to concede as well? Just no one even trying to play. Not ready for the game to restart.
 
Tonight showed how vital pace from both full backs is to how we drag opposition players out of position and create space for our front 3.

TAA was sorely missed. Milner can't do that.

Get TAA back pronto, keep him fit and we still have a chance.

I always thought we didn't have enough depth but fuck it 3 pts ahead with it all to play for.

Just need to get back to winning form.

Amazing how we've gone from not conceding from a set piece to looking weak as p*ss every time.
 
We weren't winning very convincingly earlier in the season. It's not a collapse by any means because we were never really that good this season.

However, I expect we'd still have a point or two more if we'd had no injuries or if we'd spent the Keita money on another top attacker.

They rinsed us on every set piece, we have been playing a high line and catching teams offside from set pieces all season. Pellegrini had clearly figured this out and used our over reliance on playing offside against us. I fear we will see plenty of teams try this tactic now, we have to be able to react alot sharper than the shit we saw tonight

Our defence has been outstanding until recently.
 
City have 2 more league games in the next 6 days, I think they will slip up again. We need to clear our heads, certain players either need to be dropped or start performing with more purpose.

13 games left we cant afford to be carrying players and letting the same 3 or 4 bail them out every week. We badly need TAA and Wjinaldum back for the weekend, we should have more options in midfield.
 
I thought Keita was at fault for the goal against us but he was held back from tracking the scorer. Just like VVD was held back when Crystal Palace scored a free header against us.
 
Going to come across proper melodramatic here, for me, that's it done.

We had a great chance to go 7 clear last Wednesday night, and blew it. Yes we had 1 possibly 2 clearcut penalties, but nobody can honestly say our performance warranted the win because it didn't, we could've easily lost actually...similar to last night given the chances Leicester and West Ham respectively had against us.

We have no divine right to win every single game, all sides drop points, but the timing of these dropped points combined with how slow & sloppy we look all over the pitch makes me think the wheels are on the verge of coming off. You simply can't give a team of City's experience and quality chances to keep closing the gap because that's when their big players who've been there and done it before smell blood and ruthlessly win game after game.

The thing is, I can't say I'm feeling too gutted/angry/disheartened because I'm just numb to disappointments this last decade or so supporting this Club. Don't get me wrong, I wouldn't swap it for the world, but fucking hell it's not easy.

This this and this. We were caught cold. On the second FK that happened too. Klopp needs to address this as a matter of urgency because for sure all teams will have seen how to bypass our defence when we hold the line.

Agree with Gary here, anyone who thinks that City will drop points now after seeing us go from potentially 7 points ahead to only 3, they know this is their opportunity and they've got the experience, squad depth and manager to go out there and win the next 13 games.

In my eyes, title challenge is over.
 
Jesus H Christ - so much negativity, so many people saying our league campaign is over, when we are three points clear at the top.

We can still win it - we might not, but I just don't get why people tear themselves to pieces when we hit our first bad patch of the season. Curse last nights game, but enjoy the season you fuckers - these title fights only come to us once every five years (though I am confident they will be more the norm over the next five).

When we win it I hope all of you whinging twats will have worried yourselves into an early grave, so you're not there to enjoy it.
