    Wini constantly look forward today, he was by far our most attacking midfielder, inifact at one point he was the only midfielder. Milner was stood on the left byline and Henderson was stood chatting to VVD and Gomez about the shape of the triangle they bounced the ball between.

    Amendments I don't blame milner for klopps desicion to tell milner to play left mid and let wini get on with it byhimself

    Agree with most of that apart from mane be becoming greedy. That lad has no clue what he's going to do untill he does it. His feet and brain have very little conection.

    He's always better with no time to think

    I've noticed it over a few games this season. He's in positions where he'd have got an assist last season but this year's he's taken on ridiculous chances instead.

    Fair result. Very good game for the neutral. Both played will, passed well and pressed high. Great game really.

    Hendersons performance is not an issue, neither is his ability. It's more how he fits in.

    Hes not as mobile as keita or wini
    Not as good in defence as milner or wini
    Not as good going forward as keita, wini or milner.

    However he's a decent all ,it's just he no longer fits. We have better in every position. The quicker Fab get upto speed the better

    Yes we had opportunities but I wouldn’t say they were created by our midfield like Chelsea’s goal was today wth 2/3 incisive passes.

    It was the exact type of game we need before we face city in the league next Sunday.

    it's the always safe always backwards attitude.

    he was being hauled off and he knew it and played one ball forward and then had a strop going off.

    I mean.... **** sake.. just a bit more positivity at times would put chelsea on their back foot. we were passing it round the back at 0-1 down

    getting an equaliser staves off the pressure. but... we need to be so.much better than that.

    His style was fine when we where underdogs but now as I say he just knowlonger fits, as a player I quite like him, as a player for our system he's awful.

    It's not that he's ****e and maybe played further forward as he has been in the past would be a benefit, but it come to something when your centre back is more likely to play an attacking pass forward than your midfielder

    Its difficult. I think Shaqiri must be pushing to be starting, but Salah is getting in good positions, it just isnt coming off for him and the only way he gets better is by playing and scoring/assisting

    in answer to mo....

    frankly... not for shaqiri. he missed a.sitter too.

    look salah pissed the **** out of me first half. he show.so poorly twice.in very good positions but he got in behind and held off luiz and beat the keeper and his effort was actually on target.

    he was so poor second half....

    if you said sturridge with firmino right then I'd say that's too.many switches but I'd accept that faster than shaqiri.

    the fact is mo has to dig it.out.
