Too little too late. Unsurprising - had to happen at some point. We do not have the defenders to play the way we do in the first half of every. single. match.
Same shit different day. Liverpool were there for the taking, Spurs gave themselves too much to do. I dont get how Moura can be fit for 5 minutes but not 20?
The Dier blunder ruined a very good performance. Turns out Conte's plan was spot-on despite the moaning here.
Never ever play two in the middle again. Never. For any reason.
Pool make a sub in injury time and Salah takes 45 seconds to walk off the pitch. Ref gives 10 seconds extra (seen loads of other refs give a minute extra for that at least).
Good second half. We dominated and lots of positives to take as we created chances and fought hard. One of those days when things don’t go your way sadly.
Kulu back, hopefully richie back soon, Moura getting fitter etc. things are looking up.
Simply though we have to upgrade those players who keep making mistakes. Dier mistake cost us a point.
Play like that second half and we'd be more than a match for most.
The funny thing is I don't even think that was our worst first half performance of the season. Actually one of the better ones aside from their two goals. Thought we passed it much better, but obviously we were hamstrung with having to partner Perisic with Kane. Though I thought Perisic gave it everything, so fair play.
Shame there's only one league game left this side of Christmas. Despite the defeat I enjoyed how we played on the whole. Might be alone in that.
Well all I can say is Liverpool deserved fuck all from that. Great fight from the team, Bentacur was awesome again. I've got to say I struggle with Conte and his overly defensive set ups though, an aggressive side could have ripped that Liverpool defense to shreds today.
If Conte can't see there's a problem with the way he/we set up first half then he's fucking clueless.
Maybe he believes we aren't good enough to go at these teams from the start.
But here's a tip for him; we aren't good enough to defend the whole match against these teams.
