And, we’re off.......2018/2019

Lovren hoofs Aguero in the box, no penalty given. Absolute stone wall and the ref was looking right at it.

It’s fouls like this that you then have to ask, why didn’t Aguero make more it, it’s clearly a foul, and a penalty imo, but because Aguero tries to play on, it allows the ref to bottle it.

Got to agree with you through me rose tinted glasses Kelly. But did Aguero not appealing at all not help him. In a day of habitual diving by players. Thought it an odd non reaction by Aguero. Did his honesty cost him. Not the first big decision we havent got at Anfield. Still a lovely close game. Good day to be a Fish 😁

What a knob of a miss, has it come down yet

Pep just said, “never mind, it happens, but don’t worry, it won’t happen again, you’re never taking another” 😳😜😂

Salah looks very tired.

Hard fought point at the end of the day - referee is poor , allowed Lovren to get away with what looked a blatant pen , allowed Fernandinho to stay on the pitch when he was constantly fouling after his yellow. A good battle and not a bad point.

 

[Tashyboy]

Cheers for that Mahrez.
Anyway. Not a bad plan B for a team that cannot defend.
Hope Salah and Lovren play for the rest of the season coz they wont win the title the way them two are playing.
What is up with Salah?
When was the last game Liverpool won?
Looking nice and tight at the top with spuds and the arse up there.
Happy with our position having played the pool arsenal and chelsea and wolves who will upset the top four.

What about Mane deliberately lifting his foot into Fernandinho after a nothing Challenge.

It looks to me like Liverpool players are becoming frustrated and resorting to silly fouls because they’re tired, if they don’t score in that first 20 minutes plus of frantic intensity and pressure, the other team, in this case City, them come back into the game and Liverpool haven’t got any new ideas!

I know the table doesn’t lie, but I can’t see Liverpool improving anytime soon and the players look jaded, City don’t look much better, but it depends on how boy wonder performs when he comes back, however, Chelsea look to be building and getting better each game and look to be accepting Sarri’s game plans, I think on watching that pile of crap, we must be firm favourites for the title.

Popping off now to look up some odds 😎

Salah has scored the same amount of goals as he did at this stage last season and Lovren was still a part of a back four that your attacking players couldn’t break through.

Didn’t your turn fail to beat us last week at home ? You have your one top player on form currently - let’s see what happens when he has his normal drop in form
I suspect the bookies won’t make Chelsea favourites because they know they rely on the flakey Hazard

Yes Mane should have been booked but can see why the ref missed it

It was a hard fought battle against the title rival and was a good point - both teams aren’t going to entertain each week

Flaky Hazzard 😂😂

As for reliance, it looks like your Egyptian Messi has gone walkabouts and is miss-firing, and what’s this ‘one top player on form’, you don’t rate Kante then, or Alonso, even Ruddiger is now showing why we invested in him, I think those 3 as a minimum would walk into your starting line up.

Ive said it from the very beginning, Klopp has no plan B, if you don’t score during that first 20 minutes plus and teams can soak that up, you’re then ordinary at best relying on a bit of pace and counters, I think teams now know how to play against you, like everywhere else Klopp has managed, he gets found out eventually, the difference here is everyone’s worked it out before you & him have won anything 😜

 

[fundy]

Geez, good to see the usual suspects have all got their tinted glasses on haha. If were within 2 points of you, then youre not that good currently because we certainly arent

PS Anyone seem Homer?

Well Hazard has been known you go missing - sometimes for a whole season.

Salah started last season the same as he has done this season - scored the same amount at this point last season as well - as for walking into our line up - Alonso would replace Moreno on the bench , certainly wouldn’t replace Robbo in the starting line and Rudiger defiantly wouldn’t get in over VVD or Gomez. Kante superb player but certainly not as a ball carrier.

You’re very critical of a team that your own team couldn’t beat at home. Blimey we are joint top without hitting top gear - where as Chelsea are at the top of their game , imagine what’s going to happen when the front three start firing and Chelsea have their dip in form

Were not at the top of our game, we have a new manager and those player-manager relationships are only just forming. Hence my original point, you’re a settled team/squad that looks jaded and I can’t see you being able to rest players as you don’t have the quality on the bench, and I can’t see you improving anytime soon with fixtures coming at you thick & fast. Whereas we’re just building up, finding our confidence with a new manager and system and are looking slightly better each match, but most importantly, we’re improving and have plenty more in the tank, I think your tank is empty.

As you keep mentioning the draw at the bridge, surely 1 win and 1 draw has Chelsea with the upper edge from the last 2 matches against each other and shows the strength of our squad against yours.

The seasons in its infancy and Liverpool already look tired and vulnerable imo.

Reckon you said something similar last season. Chelsea beat a pure second string team and needed to bring on Hazard to do it - let’s see what happens when Hazard drops his form. Plenty left in the tank of Liverpool - been three tough games with CL in the middle , on to Cardiff and Huddersfield now - some big games for Chelsea coming up

Well if you say Chelsea will win the league every year and Liverpool will finish 6/7/8/9/10th every year, it doesnt look like it comes from a wise point of view, now does it?

Certain people on here were saying get rid of Klopp this time last year. He has now addressed our defensive problems to a point. The front 3 arent pulling up trees at the moment, yes, but I'm not too worried at the moment. Joint top after playing Spurs and Chelsea (should have won there) and City to a clean sheet. Palace and Leicester away have always been tough for us, as well.

I'm not from the talksport generation, who judges everything in a 2 week window.

To be fair, they can probably rest more in the Europa league........give Chelsea the league now.
