Match Day Huddersfield v Liverpool, Tuesday 30th January 20:00

[SALTIRE]

3 - 1 Hudds

 

[Stevencc]

On paper Liverpool should thrash Huddersfield but they've suffered a predictable mini-slump since doing over City in a glamour tie. They'll need to get their feet back on the ground and quickly to get anything out of this.

 

[AnkleBiter]

Well just like the last time we played, Liverpool have looked crap recently and Klopp is under pressure from some. Last time we were pathetic, sat back and had no spirit whatsoever. We've looked like the worst team in the league in 2018 so far, need a turnaround but confidence is low so I can't see it.

 

[Pagnell]

Two losses after being unbeaten in 18. We really need to bounce back and at least show some quality, losing is one thing but we have done so in both the last two games playing complete dogshit. To the point where two teams in the relegation zone absolutely deserved their victories, which says everything about our performances, really.

Think we will offer something different in this one, and be back to putting up a quality display, or a decent one at least. I doubt it will be the level of attacking prowess we showed against City but it won't need to be. But again, I doubt we will keep a clean sheet for reasons I'm not going over again, but you know why.

1-2

 

[Gilly?]

Van Dijk on the bench tonight.

 

[SALTIRE]

Van Dijk on the bench tonight.

I don't understand that, he's going to be a starter so why not get him up to speed asap?

 

[Pagnell]

I've given up trying to understand some of Klopp's decisions with starting players and substitutions.

 

[Pagnell]

The same shit as usual so far. The home team playing defensively, and us unable to break them down. Coupled with them almost scoring.

Gone right off the boil in the last few weeks.

 

[SALTIRE]

The passing looks sharper and quicker though which is something.

 

[SALTIRE]

Can! Get in! He's pretty good at long-rangers.

 

[Pagnell]

Didn't expect that. I'd say its an undeserved lead, but Huddersfield deserve nothing so far looking at the way they're playing.

 

[Pagnell]

Lovely from Firmino. Lovely.

A deserved half time lead. Only one team trying to play.

 

[SALTIRE]

What a player he is. Love that guy.

Must be on near 20 for the season now?

 

[Pagnell]

19 I think.

 

[Pagnell]

Just another to put it to bed.

 

[SALTIRE]

Ah Mane, good chance that to wrap it up.

 

[SALTIRE]

Now Salah should've scored!

 

[Pagnell]

Can't argue with that decision.

Well put away by Salah. 26 goals and counting.

 

[SALTIRE]

Salah converting a pen then. Good night's work, especially sweeter with Arsenal being gubbed at fortress Swansea!

 

[Pagnell]

Just need United to win or take a point tomorrow. And I'm not happy saying that but it will keep Spurs at arms length and gain United nothing.

 

[SALTIRE]

I'd rather a draw then get the chance to put extra distance between Spurs and us by beating them in the next match; and with still half a chance of catching Utd.

 

[shane]

Well put away by Salah.

I thought it was a shit pen. Keeper goes the the other way and that’s a definite save. Would much rather Milner takes them in future.

Good result thought started to switch off towards the end. Thought Ings could have got some minutes as the game was effectively over at 75m. With Sturridge gone, we need another option instead of Firmino. Absolute quality finish by him btw.

 

[Gilly?]

Was a decent finish from Firmino but the keeper shouldn't have been beaten from there. Out of the Karius school of near post conceding.

 

[G-Dragon]

ahhhhhhh this is what a win against a small team feels like!

 

[Stevencc]

I checked a replay of the Firmino goal, expecting to see something amazing. All I saw was a keeper blunder.

You need to calm down, Pags.

 

[Pagnell]

It was the best goal ever scored. Deal with it.

Big win and needed after the turd we put up for display against Swansea and West Brom. Hopefully this will give us a much needed confidence boost ahead of Spurs this weekend.

 

[Stevencc]

We'll murder Spurs tonight and toss you the carcass.

 

[G-Dragon]

We'll murder Spurs tonight and toss you the carcass.

This did not age well mate.

 

[Stevencc]

This did not age well mate.

Careful, we may have just tossed you a live grenade.
