    He was a human who became a Mysteron agent after they'd killed him and brought him back again.
    These details are important. :)

    No, I said he became a Mysteron agent.
    Anyway, I think I've had enough of discussing the canon of a 60's puppet show, so have it your way if you like. :)

    Think the problem Tavares faced yesterday was that it only took a minute to score a goal :bandit:

    the longer the game went on the more dominant we got and really we should have won by more . Jota is a weird one as often his general play is pretty ropy but he sure has the knack of getting on the end of things as shown by his goal per minute record .
    The only bad thing about yesterday is that Utd might appoint a manager and actual coaching staff .

    Well, that performance angered me.

    As I've said before. Losing to Liverpool isn't a huge concern to me. You have an excellent side with an elite manager - all of whom are way more seasoned and superior than us. But, for the last 6 years in particular, we ALWAYS get battered. And what I can't wrap my head around is teams like Brighton, Palace, Newcastle etc have put up more combative displays at Anfield than we have.

    You're capable of tearing any team apart, but it just feels as if we always bend over for you. If you're ever in need of a morale-boosting victory, just wait for the Arsenal game and it's a sure thing.

    Even though I felt we were a bit more aggressive in defensive transition and duels, Ramsdale kept us in the game for large parts of the first-half despite it only being 1-0. And we didn't provide enough threat on the counter or via quick breakaways to trouble your defence. Our strikers really do get exposed in games like this.

    Lokonga and Tavares had absolute stinkers. I know they are both 21 years of age, and it's their first game ever in what is probably the most difficult ground to play at in Europe. But those mistakes were schoolboy. It was clear we couldn't deal with your counterpressing and speed of passing. We looked nervous every time you were closing us down. Thiago and Fabinho in particular completely dominated the middle.

    From my POV, tactics from Arteta weren't great. We need to find alternative routes to build-up than playing it short all the time. It was too obvious to telegraph. Played into your hands.

    Ah well, at least it's over now and we (hopefully) don't need to play you at Anfield again this season.

    I'm jealous of how far you've come under Klopp. We can only aspire to be like that. The gulf in class is huge.

    Best of luck for the season <ok>

    That's what he said. Fabinho's real name is Tavares.

    You were so focused on dicking with it you forgot to see the miles of space in behind us.

    I cant recall if it was smith row or aubameyang out wide when white when on his suicide run. All that was needed was one ball in the channel and itd look heroic. The run was never made and the ball was never played.

    You were crazily focused on just dicking about on your goal line with it rather than getting out and up the park.

    You also crazily went 442 quasi with lacazette doing nothing. You had to fill the midfield with bodies.

    You also were not arsed to stay inside and were lazy up top.

    Finally you left tavares on.

    We were not even that good for us. 6/10 and you kept gifting it to us.
