Match Day Liverpool v West Ham, Sunday 11th December 16:30

[johnnytodd]

Spent the first ten minutes keeping an eye on Henderson, he's improved a hell of a lot, constantly giving instructions and being in the right areas. I can see a lot more Gerrard in him now, he may not be as good but their styles are very similar now.

Sky has insisted Liverpool must be given a penalty in the second half..............Asian viewers are demanding it.

 

[Bilo]

The first is 100% on Karius, a step to his right and it's never a goal. The second was a combination of an unlucky bounce, Matip doing fuck all and Karius being late to read it. Poor throughout though, the second we scored it's like complacency kicked in.

 

[Storzy]

The first is 100% on Karius, a step to his right and it's never a goal.

Surely it's whoever gave the freekick away though right? I mean if that didn't happen then no goal as well.

Afterall if we can't expect Stones to hit a simple back pass we can't also expect a goalkeeper to make a simple save... right?

Calm down, we don't need to have the same discussions in two threads mate.

WE DO UNTIL YOU ADMIT I'M RIGHT AND HAVE WON THE INTERNET!!!!

 

[Super_horns]

Some poor goalkeeping here.

 

[johnnytodd]

Season over for Liverpool?

 

[Storzy]

Cracking point for West Ham despite the keeper error leading to the equalising goal, they were 2nd best for all the 2nd half.

 

[Chelsea Royale]

Another team dropping points. Now just need Arsenal to lose a few games as well.

 

[Bilo]

That save from Randolph on Henderson's shot was amazing. It's literally a perfect strike.

I thought west ham defended quite well but we're finding it tough right now. But a point is a point.

 

[danbylfc]

Firmino to have a stormer today.

Probably one of his worst performances of this season. I'm keeping my mouth shut in the future.

 

[Pagnell]

It might not be a loss but a shit result all the same against a side with 3 wins to their name all season. Great timing to be hitting a bad patch, just as United seem to be coming out of one. Even the thought of Everton being 10x worse doesn't make me feel much better about the last couple of games.

 

[johnnytodd]

Both sky pundits ex-Liverpool players....how do Sky get away with it?

 

[shane]

Firmino in the left doesn't really work. Want to back Karius but it's getting increasingly difficult. He's not 100% at fault for free kick but he should have done a lot better.

Feels like 5 points dropped in last two games.

 

[Pagnell]

Absolutely 5 points dropped, we should have won both games but that's not to take anything away from either opposition, both deserved the points they came away with. I know it's only a couple of games but whether fatigue or simply a bad run, we need to sort this out quick to keep our top 4 finish in our own hands. There are teams below us who will be happy to take it off us. Thankfully, Spurs dropped all 3 points today. Unfortunately, it meant the opposite for United.

And neither keeper cut it. Take either Mignolet or Karius and we have by far the worst keeper of any of the top four hopefuls.

Liverpool and Man United have a monopoly on football punditry.

It's not all bad though, its hilarious watching Graeme souness' face when liverpool fail.

It's time.

 

[Pagnell]

Couldn't be any worse.

 

[SALTIRE]

Hitting a poor patch of form at the moment, need to ride it through. Hopefully can start to pick it up in the next few weeks.

 

[claret50]

That takes us out of the drop zone.....for now, I'm more than pleased with a point at Anfield.

 

[Pagnell]

Damn annoying to score 5 goals in the last 2 games and come away with a point. Sums up our issues perfectly.

 

[SALTIRE]

Yeah hopefully a new CB in for January.

 

[JimJams]

Tah would be a good option.
Whats wrong with JoGo?

 

[Nilsson]

You might want to look up monopoly in the dictionary mate.

 

[SALTIRE]

Tah would be a good option.

Been hearing about Tah that he's a good shout. Jo Gomez is back but I can't see him getting any football this season, perhaps the same for Ojo who is also back.

 

[Pagnell]

Perhaps he should have added he's hoping for a new CB that will improve our defence.

 

[Nilsson]

I recall a few highly respected Liverpool supporting members of this forum being very happy with the Lovren/Sakho partnership of last season. Perhaps Klopp has made a mistake by disrupting that solid foundation.

 

[Bilo]

Their run up until Sakho's ban is still the most solid defensive partnership we've had for God knows how long. But it's obvious that Sakho's disappearance has nothing to do with his performances on the pitch.
