Not been following the game but just looked up the score on bbc sport. The reporter, Emma Sanders enthusiastically calls Firmino, ‘Bobby’ after they score. Looked her up, and lo and behold she’s a Liverpool fan. How about a bit of impartiality bbc?!

BBC worship Liverpool

It's a shame because for such a great player, Zidane does come across as a massive ****! Not sure what he brings to the table as a manager.

He brings the ability to handle egos and a sensible approach to setting up his team.

Klopp was an idiot for not strengthening his team in the summer. They really need a good number 10. They had a lot of luck last season.
I don't think they need a number ten (or a number 8) as they don't play to control the game but rather to press and play up to the front three with speed. In fact I would say getting rid of coutinho was a massive blessing in disguise as it ended up giving Liverpool real edge and directness going forward.

I don't think they will match last season, and they are looking defensively vulnerable. But they are a very good team.

Fair play to these Lino's, making great offside calls, they were both so tight.

Wish they’d flag straight away when it’s as obvious as some of these though, it’s getting really boring watching the game not knowing how much of it is actually real or waiting to be cancelled out

They are told to let it run though, not really much they can do about it.

Being very optimistic but Southampton might have a chance of doing Liverpool on the weekend due to this game.
