Greenlizard0 Weekend Football Thread ** spoilers ** [8th - 12th September 2017]

[Combat Fighter]

Slaughter and embarass Arsenal 4-0 one week, lose by a similar amount the following week to Man City. Ahh...the inconsistent life of a Liverpool fan !

To be fair we did make it very easy for you.

Mignolet should have rolled around and tried to get Otamendi a 2nd yellow for going in late on him.

 

[fez]

This is going to be embarrassing if Pool aren't very careful.

Very possible. Some sides in this position will just shut up shop and turn it into a damage limitation exercise but I can't see us doing that.

We can't do that if we tried regardless

 

[Tombstone]

It is indeed much harder to shut up shop when your doors are made of paper

 

[Ayahuasca]

Even without the sending off I think City would have won comfortably, game plan was all down the right side to expose Otamendi and Salah wasn't finishing or laying off well at all, seems to have too much sportsmanship to go down, likes to stay on his feet and hop challenges.

Mane would have had little oppertunity unless they eventually switched things up, just think City are too clinical against a defence as bad as this.

 

[Tombstone]

Not sure what you mean, this defence isnt bad, its fine.

 

[Mark1989]

Oh look klavan looking useless again.

Before the sending off we were the better team there goal came because of a useless **** called klavan

 

[Pigeon_Killer]

Oh look klavan looking useless again.

I'm actually just laughing everytime he goes near the ball now. He doesn't seem to know what to do with his feet so he just falls over gracefully and looks like a fish trying to breakdance.

 

[fez]

Not exactly embarrassing to be pumped by the best team in the league when they have a man advantage.

A 5/6-0 beating is embarrassing however you look at it.

Salah was wasteful but as he's shown, if he kept getting opportunities we would have scored. We were the better side prior to the red card and the way the game was going, it looked a matter of time before we broke through. Whether we could have kept the back door shut is another matter though.

 

[chroniclard]

After seeing replays its a good call by the ref I think. Annoying as has killed the game though.

 

[McBain]

Klavan is a shocker, what's happened to Sakho I was never convinced by him but he seemed to do quite well at Palace (for him). How is he not getting a look in when Klavan is dire?

Ah ignore, they actually signed him.

 

[Tombstone]

Probably because he plays for Palace now

Because he's been sold.

Sakho was ditched for his attitude off the pitch rather than his performances on the pitch.

Klopp didn't rate him, we then sold him, we then sold lucas who could cover centre back and didn't buy a cb because klopp was too lazy to find alternative to dijk the end

 

[McBain]

Aye must've missed that one.

 

[Tombstone]

Well that.....and that we didnt need an alternative to Dijk because the defence is fine.
