[EL] Sevilla (N) - Post Match

[Lecter]

Our best player first half was our rightback. We scored a great goal with a superb finish

Thought Coutinho was anonymous all game
Lallana and Firmino were not involved enough

Defensively leftback is a shambles and I though Kolo was our best defender

A few years back I likened this side to Thomas Hearns (Amir Khan for you youngsters) that is the moment someone slaps us we go to pieces

[Nicey]

Are you actually disagreeing? The scoreline reflected the game, but the game that happened after the decisions, and it would have been a different game with different decisions.

They were better over the 90, sometimes you get those decisions sometimes not .. just because there was 3 it does not change them ... they were all marginal ... sure you could make the case they were clear cut decisions in the tv replays .. but i have seen them not given a lot ..


I have no complaints other than this team needs some surgery ... Marty and Moreno should go

[BubbaZanetti]

They've both been better than Coutinho in recent weeks though.

Lallana is the emperor's new midfielder - he's all show and no payoff, complete powder puff chancer who should be straight in the garbage chute with Moreno.

Roberto has the stats but they only exacerbate how infuriating it is when he's as ineffectual as he was tonight. I'm giving Phil a pass as he's been our best player across the season.

they got zero service .. all long balls and no composure .. it was a pretty bad performance goal aside

[Slinky Skills]

An early second half goal by a typical Moreno head fart set the tone.

I've defended him but I have no more patience. He ****s out of challenges and costs us everything with his cluster ducks.

Bring on a massive squad overhaul.

He's ****ing ****, you cannot defend him.

I've slated him and Mignolet in the past and I feel bad for doing so but he's so poor.

I will list his deficiencies in no set order.

Tracks back to an extent - then stops which lets attackers in for crosses
Dives in and gives away free kicks or in most cases, pens
He has **** hair
He constantly gets booked
He has zero positional sense
He looks thick and is thick
He heads balls the wrong way
He lunges in with tackles
His tattoos are ****
He never holds the line
He's consistently out of position
He does **** Chris Kamara impressions
He does **** Merry Christmas impressions
He shoots when he should pass
He tackles with his left foot when he should tackle with his right
When he lunges in he either fouls or misses the ball completely
He has a limp hand when he takes thrown ins

The list is not exhaustive.

All of our deficiencies were shown up tonight. Moreno, Coutinho, Firmino, Sturridge, no specialist central midfielder beside Can, leadership. We're not as good as we think we are.

As a fanbase, we went into this game way too confident, not realising how much of a threat Sevilla actually could pose. There's a reason they keep winning this tournament.

A lot of arrogant pricks from our end. Nothing wrong with confidence, saying we were going walk over these is embarrassing to say the least.

Show a little respect we're better than that.

Sorry but that's ****e

You have to do your job out of possession first and when they got the ball they were utter ****e

[BubbaZanetti]

Were missing a real creative passer of the ball in midfield and some pace out wide. I think these will be addressed in the summer. Lallana as much as we appreciate his off the ball work, on the ball he simply isn't good enough and has never been.

Firmino - cant argue with the guys goals and assists.

We're missing aggression, pace, leadership and precision in midfield. We've been shot there since Rafa left. Needs sorting as a priority if we're supposed to do anything.

Well I disagree .. I dont remember them getting a lot of service .. I would put it more and Can and Milners doorstep ... but hey which ever way you cut it .. it just wast not good .. when it really mattered ... again .. again.. again... again with this lot

[ric.williams]

Ref was **** but let's face it we only played for 15-20 minutes. Too many no shows tonight.

We had it for 20 odd minutes tonight. It's there. But not consistently. Sometimes you get away with it. Sometimes you don't.

And all Klopp has to do now is turn us into Hagler.

[BobTheCharmer]

Woeful all round. Lost to a worse team in the most cringeworthy of fashions. Can pick out individuals like Moreno, Can, Milner, Coutinho for their ****ness, but the whole team ****ing bottled it.

Ah so they are ****ing bottlers.

Klopp's spot on with his post match interview.

Liverpool 1-3 Sevilla - Jurgen Klopp post-match reaction - YouTube

We're 20 years too late in getting Jurgen in.

Only positive I have is that I may still have time to see him bring us the league before I got too old and disinterested in football.

[BubbaZanetti]

Www.redfestbristol.co.uk had it for 20 odd minutes tonight. It's there. But not consistently. Sometimes you get away with it. Sometimes you don't.

We're weak and fold too easily, been the way for a while now. Not sure what Bristol has to do with it?
