Liverpool vs Real Madrid away (CL group match thread)

[McDermotX]

Who was Kolo shouting at there ?

[RichC]

Apart from not blocking the cross for the goal, something that Lovren would be battered for, he's been alright.

Whoops....missed that one.

No way you can blame the goal on kolo it was a brilliant ball.

Sometimes that does happen

[danperkins]

Kolo has lost runner 3 times now. Done ok though

[ronanm]

"This is Christian's Ronaldo"

Yes we know tyldsley you ****wit

[McDermotX]

Agreed. He's like Vladimir Smicer on a bad day.

Which was most days.

Manquillo was caught out but kolo lost his man. If that was skrtel or lovren people be going ape ****.

It was a good ball, which we should have done more to prevent coming in, but Kolo was in a good position with Benzema, but his step inside to look for the offside cost him the chance to intercept the ball in.
Sometimes errors are small and never punished but for me, it was a disappointing blot on an otherwise decent performance from him.

[alonso14]

Brilliant so far. Much better than what I expected.

But Kolo is a fifty year old 4th choice CB

[danperkins]

We've done well. Much more balance all over th pitch.. Just a bit light up top. I'd be taking markovic off for sterling at some point.. He's ****e.

[DeanoUK]

Smicer. One of Houllier's favourite children. Could never understand it. Despite the goal in Istanbul!

That was a brilliant goal simple as that

And if it wasnt he'd get hammered much like last season

Or was that irony or sarcasm can't tell; can you?

[Paddy]

Lallana could have played Markovic in towards the end.

Still though, decent performance.
