the REVENGE DERBY PL Game 24: Liverpool v Everton

[johnc121]

Tough watch that half... when you have a midfield devoid of any creativity you're in BIG trouble....

[Buzzo]

Massive massive second half coming up. We need more from everyone.

[Rich]

Keita on please, might be able to bring some urgency to the sloths in midfield

[danperkins]

We're still ****.

Midfield is more of a problem than defense at the moment.

Gini does nothing these days, Thiago slows things down something awful and hasn't done much except cost us goals and Jones just hangs on to the ball too long. All too slow

[Kenneth]

Any team down to 6th and 7th choice centre backs is going to struggle. Isn’t this out 18th centre back pairing???

I’ve no idea what we do from here to be honest. Confidence looks low and all of our onfield leaders are injured.

Again, that's only a minor part of our problem. It's the rest of the team that couldn't score in a brothel most games. Thiago is really starting to piss me off, the guy has been worse than useless since coming.

[fabinho]

Keita on please, might be able to bring some urgency to the sloths in midfield

He'd be off within 20 minutes injured.

Got about 2 and a half minutes of those 4 added on. **** knows why the dumb cunt of a ref let them waste the last 30 seconds of injury time with a dead ball then blow up bang on 4 minutes. Might as well saved us all the ballache and low up on 3 and a half mins

Yeah as soon as the ball was in play after the 4 min mark he blew the whistle, the ball was dead for about 40 seconds before that and there were a couple of other incidents in added time.

[BootRoom]

When Firmino is going through his infrequent purple patches, a notable trait is the physical battle he has with defenders, not letting them get the better of him without a big fight. Now he just looks like he's not arsed.

[Buzzo]

That touch from Thiago is miserable.

[Exiled_red]

We really need to up the intensity this half we have played way too slow, only really had half chances. Need to play like we did midweek.

[cannotmakeit]

He'd be off within 20 minutes injured.

[ChesterDave]

They can’t beat us technically, so they are blatantly fouling us at every single ****ing opportunity... and the ref does next to **** all... dirty scum these lot.

Also repeatedly running to stand in front of the ball preventing a quick free kick

[danperkins]

Confidence on the floor it seems. I expected us to come out blazing in this fixture after what happened previously and with that win to Leipzig behind us but we are simply playing the way we've played most of the season. Slow, predictable football with no tempo or aggression. For me that stems from the midfield, they used to set the tempo and drive us forward. So pedestrian now.

[Big-Red-Ed]

Loads of possession but no chances created. Same old same old.
