[EL] Dortmund (H): The Match

[danperkins]

Mig had saved us several times. He's been left horribly exposed so many times to be fair to him. This could be cricket scores at this stage.

[Kenneth]

Get Firmino off. Liability in this half.

[Buzzo]

Pity he can't defend.

He's defended well so far tonight.

[Gibbo]

Well, that was fun wasn't it lads.

[danperkins]

Get Firmino off. Liability in this half.

game had passed him by unfortunately. Mind Coutinho and Lallana have been very poor too.

[Fredo]

We just needed composure in the first 15 minutes. We didn't and played straight into their game plan. Keep the ****ing ball and try to slow the game down. It's a shame.

[Rich]

Klopp has to go for broke in the second half. Sturridge HAS to come on - it could be any of Lallana, Coutinho or Firmino who haven't done enough by a long shot.

[danperkins]

He's defended well so far tonight.

All of our defenders have had nightmares to be fair. Dortmund could be five or 6. Amount of space is ridiculous and we looked so nervy right from the opening whistle.

[Gibbo]

Pulled pork is actually quite a lot of effort.

[baronvonskidmark]

Firmino has been poor. It'll be hard to come back, but we've actually looked dangerous against one of the best sides in Europe.

Come on the Reds!

[Kenneth]

CM is our problem, as it has been for a couple of years. Without a leading in the middle there's just space and nervousness.

[slaine]

Where's Benteke when you need him

[redmike65]

Firmino and Coutinho have both been out and I suppose it shows how important continuity is when playing at this level.

Certainly one of them has to be sacrificed for Sturridge (not on an actual fire though!)

[Rich]

The space is coming for the lack of midfield though IMO. They've cut through Can and Milner at will.

[danperkins]

What a downer
