Good win. Iffy at the back for sure but going forward looked good.

Origi looked confident which is good for cover.

Shame sbout the injury hopefully not too bad.

Norwich could surprise a few people this season tbh

opening season, against newly promoted team, always potential banana skin. Sit back and enjoy the football now!!

The defence was a shambles from start to finish & TAA is getting caught out in the space he leaves behind him time after time.

He went through a period last year of doing the same, when hes good hes very good but he does have periods when hes just not switched on.

I dont think the midfield offered a great deal of protection for the defence either, fab was there and Henderson was up and down but I thought wini was largely anonymous tonight

I can challenge @astro to find some similar comments last season. TAA started slow then picked up late on. It is easy to forget he is only 20

Opening game last season:

Almost routine win.
I'm still waiting to see how the defence stands up to a decent attack. Alisson made a couple of dodgy clearances.
Trent had a bit of a 'mare first half then went quiet - I hope it doesn't undermine his confidence.
Keita looking the part already.

I thought Gomez did well today, for our defence concentration is always going to be an issue.

He covered when Trent was caught up the pitch. The only time he looked to have been caught out was when aurnautovic got in, but I thought vvd should have tracked him.

Not too worried about the defensive performance, they'll get better as they start playing regularly again.

The subs were bizarre though, thought either or Keita, Ox or even Shaqiri should have been given 20-30mins playing time with the usual lads to get them up to speed rather than Milner or Mane. Odd.

Still, 1 down
 
Lovely start to the season! Relatively comfortable win. The attack looks very sharp, midfield grew in the game but the defence was really poor. Trent and Joe in particular - I do feel joe is lucky because I think matip should be starting.

I hope we see more of this bobby this season. Was way too inconsistent last season so im expecting a lot more. Today was one of those games where he was magical. MOTM.

Not looking good for Alisson though :(
 
Sounds like Alisson has done his achilles tendon from what Klopp just said, "he felt like something hit him in the calf", that is exactly how I felt/thought when I snapped mine pushing a car out of a ditch.

How long is the recovery? Sounds pretty bad!
