Liverpool has got to tighten up and move the ball a lot quicker. Play is entirely too slow and predictable. Way too many sideways and backwards passes. Add to that that they are 2 down. In 4 minutes!!! Finally 1 goal back!
What the Hell was that? Garbage, yet again. We still look shaky at the back every time the opposition get the ball and our goal threat is a fraction of what it was. Be honest, can we hope to win the league with a defence like that? Sturridge and Origi aren’t good enough, having had about three good games between them this season.
If we get into the Champion’s League next year it’ll be a miracle. Do Spurs, Chelsea, Arsenal, City or United look as bad defensively as us? United and City, occasionally, but we look crap every game at the back.
The title is gone, long gone, but we seriously cannot look impressive against anybody these days. Crap, crap, crap! Will we go for anybody new? The rumours about getting in somebody to take the place of Mane – away in Africa – have come to nothing, the transfer window is running down and we are looking weak at BOTH ends of the pitch. Europa League, if we are lucky, here we come. Only got Chelsea next in the league . . .
Absolutely shocking performance by Liverpool in defense. Pathetic! Beaten by the club that was sitting bottom. They aren’t anymore thanks to being gifted 3 points!
