Match Threads Liverpool Vs Tottenham: Match Thread

[sebo_sek]

Liverpool looking relieved that the game is over

Having won I don't blame them. Question is, are we equally relieved?

 

[ziggy]

Shame we have to go a goal down to start attacking.
Should have bought NDombele on for eriksen much sooner, him and locelso were looking for the ball and playing it forward

 

[TheVoiceofReason]

I think Poch might have lost me with that one.

 

[gregga]

Eriksen’s decline is remarkable. He was so so bad. Should be nowhere near the team. Blood Lo Celso ASAP

 

[m*****73]

This team is so mentally weak. No honesty. Only started to play after we'd gone behind. Poch sits on his hands and makes a mockery of bringing only GLC for a pathetic Eriksen with 5 mins to go.

Completely lost all faith in Pochettino. We are soft, we are going nowhere fast. It's clear that a number of players have given up and I think Poch has too. Please just go now.

 

[Davo99]

I just don’t know anymore.

 

[Stamford]

Any one who has seen us play can tell that Ndombele has been quality. So Poch drops him for the second hardest game in the league.

 

[ernie78]

He's doing it on purpose.

I’m starting to think you are right

 

[Gareth88]

When you say ref do you mean the Anfield crowd because they seem to have been telling him what to do all day

Shocking game from him to be fair. Not due to us being on the losing end his decision making was poor, two intentional hand balls from their players no cards, kicking the ball away no cards. But we didnt help ourselves

 

[Marauder]

I think it will be the same score as last season - 2-1 to Liverfool. We will give a good account of ourselves and a much better performance than recently in the Premiership but alas we will still lose narrowly.

Damn, I am in the wrong job

 

[Cavehillspur]

Thats us in the bottom half...

 

[dondo]

Why does Alli play instead of Ndombele???

Alli is a very good no 10/ 2nd striker, he is not good enough and gives the ball away far too much to play in midfield.
Dele, Kane and son have a great understanding playing close together

 

[CowInAComa]

Any money we spend in January should go on fullbacks.

the difference between a team with competent fullbacks and one with without was what we just witnessed in the last 90mins.

 

[Adam456]

I don’t understand how the person making a genuine attempt to clear gets punished.

It's absolutely ridiculous and I think the ref cannot have seen it properly. That goes to VAR and it's cancelled. It's clear that Sane blocks Aurier's clearance. Sane is not in possession of the ball

 

[JAYSTAR]

It is literally unbearable watching Eriksen jog back, leaving enough space for Robertson to run round him all but one time all game. And then to watch Alli do absolutely nothing on the ball when Ndombele and Lo Celso just sit on the bench. Poch has two golden boys in Alli and Eriksen and they have largely been the reason we have been so poor over the last 10 months. They contribute almost nothing, it's so sickening to watch. Poch needs to go.

 

[dondo]

Roy Keane on Aurier ?

 

[Saoirse]

Poch out, and no salary for Levy for a year, please.

Bloody Levy huh, giving Poch more to spend than Klopp's had while building a stadium, investing close to £200m in the squad this summer alone, and insisting that the likes of Eriksen and Aurier play constantly despite being diabolically bad.

 

[glacierSpurs]

The effort was there, the quality wasn’t. Especially in passing accuracy in the final third. The passes generally really slowed down our movement.

Sorry, the effort wasn't there. So many times this season, and even last, that we would show up only when we were behind and left with 10 minutes on the clock. That effort you saw are just some sportsmen pride left in those individuals who do not like to lose. It's nothing to do with a team mentality.

 

[CarrickSpurgus]

Sick of rose
Sick of aurier
Sick to fuck of Eriksson
Sick of poch , I want rid ,the team actually turned up and with the right personnel we would have got a result, class players on the bench that should have started.We have our hands tied behind our backs with this manager and don't give me all this 'poch has brought us so far' he's a busted flush and I want him gone.A proper pragmatic manager would have selected a team to get a result . Fucking hell...

 

[Reece]

I’ve lost count of the number of times we’ve gone away to big teams, scored first and not won the game. I know it’s difficult to win these big away games but it really shows why we don’t win trophies.

 

[werty]

Love that Eriksen is getting stick for not trying defensively when Son was worse.

Anyway, if Ndombele started I think we might have gotten something from the game. Alli, Winks and Sissoko were pretty shit on the ball and we couldn't relieve any pressure.
