    I’ve switched off. Annoyingly the fat woman next door is a big Liverpool fan and shrieks like a lunatic everytime they score so I’m going to have to put up with that for the next hour or so

    If Gakpo belongs to Jesus, then he clearly doesn't belong to Liverpool.
    Ineligible player. 3-0 loss, thanks. <ok>

    Heads are down all over the pitch. They haven't got a clue performance-wise, but a decent attitude is a minimum requirement.

    From an ex-Man City player? Seems unlikely...

    Johnson gets caught offside for the 3rd time, looking along the line. <doh>

    It's a somewhat makeshift side, for the most part, but the lack of defensive cohesion is standard.
    Absolutely shambolic stuff, no matter who we pick at the back or in the middle.

    Yup. The recent signings are all kids with potential or bang average players that wouldn’t get anywhere near a top 6 team. Add in an inept manager and 17th is about right.

    That was lazy, but the pass was also mistimed. He made a run and the other player checked back.

    To be fair does anyone have that cohesion at the back? The art of defending is well and truly a dying, if not dead, art...

    Can they make their minds up on what's a foul, please? Can you follow through or not?

    9 clean sheets in the prem in the last 63 games under Ange.

    Not including today We've conceded 2 or 3 goals 28 times and 4 or more 7 times in our 72 league games under Ange.

    New manager knows what needs working on

    You can give you play for Liverpool or the challenge is on a Spurs player so Konate was fine on both counts.

    No chance. They'll lose a bunch of players and find it hard to stay in matches.
    James Trafford's basically gone already and others will follow.

    It’s a different game defending against Cardiff or Plymouth. We’ll see how good Burnley’s defence is next season

    3-1 HT. Another Postecoglou masterclass in what not to do in defence.
    Hopefully Liverpool just see this one out without trying to score too many more.
    Could get very ugly again otherwise.

    Strange half, not the worst we have played, Liverpool not at their best but still too good for us. They appear to have settled for 3-1 might as well shake hands on the result now and present the trophy.
