Liverpool vs West Ham United: Match Thread

[tanner]

****ing hell, messy at the back then. Need more options up front.

[dom9]

Pretty scrappy game but I'll settle for that as things stand.

[RichC]

Yeah bit scrappy so far but I think Sterling has done well and been quite impressed with Allen as well.

Could do with nicking an early second half goal to calm everything down

[Shaggy]

Allen is having a good game, yeah. Breaks play up nicely and I like the tempo with which he moves the ball.

[SK]

that'll do. just keep going at them, they'll crack..

There's a good player in there somewhere. I really dunno why he tailed off so badly after a promising start to his LFC career. Is it confidence? Who knows.

I've always been a fan of Allen. Very neat player. He is like a baby deer avoiding gunshots

Glad to Allen having a good game. Hope he can kick on from here and really start showing us what he can do.

[JohnDoe]

Allen is doing well because he's not being pressed. It makes sense to put him out there over Lucas in a home game against an inferior side. We look better at moving the ball.

[Marina]

Can these games end at halftime please? I'll take 3rd and a point above City, please and thanks.

One of the main ingredients of a tiki taka side salad.

Liking Sakho again. I think he's our best CB. Obviously strong and dominant, but his composure and assurance on the ball is great. Calms things down with a quiet authority.

And was at fault for almost conceding an identical goal Agger did vs. Norwich despite his "aerial dominance".

[BigChief]

How is Sakho doing at Wham's set pieces? This is where Agger falls down usually (figuratively and literally).

Edit: thanks JohnDoe
