Match Day Thread Liverpool v Swansea - Premier league

I made a somewhat glib comment that did have a serious point the other day. That being, are you concerned that in (the now) 4 1/2 games since Mane went to the ACON that you've only scored 2 goals?

It seems he's absolutely key to Klopp's set up, as he finds space in the final third and seemingly sets the pace amongst that attaching unit.

 

Jeez I see the optimism is high today lads

 

Well still on for my prediction

 

No shots on target. Says it all really.

We haven't even started yet. Our players need to wake up and smell the coffee. They can't expect to just be on the pitch and get 3 points

45 minutes to define our season.

 

It's all about the pace.....need another like him lol...

 

#seasonover

 

We all said he'd be a huge miss as he's the one player with real pace in our team who can stretch teams... plus he's our top scorer!

 

Early start...we all just woke up grumpy and lethargic...like the team...

 

'Holding out' ?
Do not think they are holding out, clear game plan, we need to find a way around it without conceding.

 

Well I think there are two reasons we have played crap, both jinxes

1. I have bet on us to win, I only bet about twice a decade.

2. Will Ferrell is in the crowd, his films are pretty crap so he is bringing our play down to that level.

 

The players just need to calm down and move the ball faster. I'd like to know why Klopp needs to shoe horn Can in the first eleven for such games where I think he should be in direct competition with Wijnaldum.

Playing Lallana upfront I'd really killing his strengths in breaking down opponents from deep

 

My theory as to why klppp persists with can Gini and Hendo is because he thinks the defence needs protection (which it does to be fair).

We can cut up so open easily pretty much every match.

 

We miss his pace but the biggest thing we miss is Lallana. With Mane missing, Lallana is moved into the front three and he's simply not the same player there.

 

Ha ha ha.....that is just ridiculous defending...utterly utterly predictable though...

 

Here we go then...

 

yep i'm concerned but would like to see Lallana back in MF before panicking as he was often that set the tempo for the front 5 but that would obviously mean Origi or Firmino or Ojo wide right 2 of which have been seriously off it for a while other untested.


Actually yep i'm panicking

 

Lol. Comical defending again.

 

Change now surely

 

What kind of a header was that from Lovren to put it out for a corner... no communication at all. Lovren had no one near here, Mig just needed to come pick it up.

 

We're gonna struggle to score a goal against them before, but now they can pull a Mourinho on us.
Terrible attitude by the players all game
