Match Day Thread Liverpool V Plymouth - FA Cup 3rd round

I guess we'll have to see how we do the rest of the season compared to Everton then, who have given themselves no distractions

 

No drama here - maybe if they holding out for pens in the replay.
Was it a bad game - yes
Did we play well - not really but hard to judge
Did I at any point think we would lose - not really
Was more a case of would we score
Had we scored it would have got interesting.

Just as a side note with all the corners we had today would rather have had Sakho available than Lucas

Whilst I accept the argument that Klopps decision renders the debate null and void that could be said of every decision we debate

Anyway back to game, well done Plymouth think that was their plan and executed it well.

Hope the replay is a bit more eventful.

I will go back to predicting oppo wins or draws like

Still in the comp that's all that matters

 

Ojo missed 3 absolute sitters .

Origi was awful

Stewart can't shoot on target.

 

Manning up.

 

Ojo header would have opened the floodgates

Origi's perfectly good goal disallowed because he made the defender look too much of a mug

Ref was very generous to them, gave them a free kick because their player injured himself (get well) and no yellows despite 16 fouls

Just because they maybe more slow and crap than cynical doesn't mean they should be allowed to break our attacks with trips indefinitely

 

Chill another games experience

 

Ref blew everything and then had no cards. He couldn't let that goal stand cos he gave us several extremely soft frees so he was at least consistent.

Must say ojo pathetic effort at a header I would have score. He closed his eyes or something.

 

#excuses

Get them in. Nothing to do with the fact your squad is thin and not good enough to beat 1st division team.

 

Not exactly panicking mate

Another game is good for the youngsters, that I'm not denying. Still takes some focus away from more important things though.

Any idea when the replay will be?

 

Christ! Slow day...Even Sweats is bored enough to pop in for a wum

 

I only like doing it to Astro.

The rest of you are normal humans. Even likeable.

 

Summary?

 

Meh, FA Cup isn't all that important this year. League and now that we're there League Cup are the priorities atm. Only really annoying thing is that it means another extra game, although I'd expect a similar team to play in the replay, so...

Credit to Plymouth, they came to snatch something and they got it, but sacrificed engaging in a game of football in doing so and our lot didn't take advantage of that.

 

Pahaha

Having me on ignore then asking what I posted..

#desperate.

 

Apart from 4 players your team/squad is a bit ****

 

You sure about that...?

 

But that's still 4 more than 6thchester right?

 

Really good experience for the youngsters - expected more from our attackers but it was one of those games.

Regardless of the opposition, this was our youngest ever starting line up and they had around 70% possession. Obviously the final score is the most important thing but when it comes to young players, this level of competitiveness is what they need. Not to mention that some likes Ojo and Gomez came back from serious injuries.

Not ideal having to travel but it's another opportunity for the youngsters.

 

They engaged in a game of football, attack v defence. They played their part very well and even had a couple of dangerous breakaways

 

When are you ever right
