    It has been a poor performance but that’s what’s so fustrating is Liverpool haven’t been great -they’ve scored two shots on target, if we’d been half way to decent tonight we could have a point or maybe nicked it

    It hasn’t been a poor performance though. We have stood toe to toe with them. Just two good goals.

    It's just playing out as expected, it was always going to be a loss. We're working hard, but they're miles better than us.

    Just make notes from this match and try to get masterplan for cup final.

    I don't even think the manager or the players believed they could win this game. They were right.

    Dubravka shouldn’t have been dropped. He’s bang average, but Pope is **** and the rest aren’t worth a mention. Weirdly i bet Odysseas is better than all of them but doesn’t get a look in because he was a PSR purchase and it feels like Howe just wants to make a point.

    Anyway, yes, this is a guaranteed defeat every year. With that team it’s far from Howes fault, but by God we just bend over for City and Liverpool. Where’s the fight we seem to show vs Man U or Arsenal?

    They've done nothing mate and ultimately gifted goals like they always do.

    The GK and the two cbs are garbage, absolutely useless all 3 of them.

    The reality is they are a world class side.

    We have 4 Ashley players who were deemed crap 4 years ago. And Howe is getting a tune out of them.

    I may be a bedwetter but I see a positive performance when I see one.

    If we play like this the rest of the season we will finish top 5.

    Vlachodimos is our best keeper yet Howe plays his ****ing favourites.

    Don't like calling him out but i'm pissed off. He has cost us.

    Think both the goals are poor - not a moment of world class talent but just basic mistakes on our point - capatalised on ruthlessly to be fair.
    That’s why they will win the league at a canter - just insanely clinical.

    tbh I’d much rather we play like this tonight and have a better game in the final - if this was the cup final I’d be absolutely seething.

    No need to defend yourself, nothing wrong with seeing positivities.

    The fact we're playing ok but still being beaten comfortably shows the gulf in class right now. At least Joelinton, Botman, Isak and Dubravka will be in the cup final team.

    The subs were once again just pre planned, but he never thinking I'll sub the useless cbs or just maybe one change, so it's not a complete **** show afterwards when he hoys 4 on.
