That’s hilarious, I know mo is really good friends with Lovren. Funny though, I just wouldn’t have put those two together! 

Lols. I think he looks more ‘proud’ myself than angry.

He scored a great goal. That said, he was lucky Joselu isn’t very good. He completely fucked up on one of the headers that drifted just wide.

I think Alisson had that covered if it was on target.

WI love VVD as much as anybody but this crediting him with anything positive the other defenders do and blaming them for any of his errors is quite tiresome

 

The Joselu headed chance was misjudged by VVD and went over his head and was on the opposite side to where Lovren is. Don't worry if it really had been Lovrens fault you’d have heard plenty about it.

NV was referring to the chance in the second half. So you’re both right. :)

They should've scored from the first one for Joselu (near-perfect cross from Ritchie), but between Lovren applying pressure and Alisson's positioning, I don't think the second effort was ever going to be successful.

The way you phrase that has my back up instantly. Tiresome? Who has ever done that? Nobody.

He's in character. "Tiresome" is exactly the word Sir Roger would use.

Credit where credit is due,big Dejan is doing well and scored a beauty. Now goals are flowing from all over the field.

[LFC 6 Times]

That was a fucking cracking hit, good player who doesn't warrant anywhere near the abuse he gets. Miles better than Otamendi or any of Arsenal defenders.

Saw this on Twitter. Still can’t believe that it was given.

The 2 chances Ardja mentioned were a perfect example , if Lovren had misjudged the first half one like Virgil did there would have been 4 extra pages on the match thread.

I think van Dijk entered Lovren's mind for a moment and kicked the ball in the net. It's the only explanation that makes any sense.

There’s a difference in that one wasa world class dipping cross, and the guy that seemingly wins everything in the air didn’t get this one. The other was Lovren being positionally poor. Again. 

 

Great goal, good game from him, but he’s not great. 

[SasaS]

To be fair to Lovren, he was not "positionally poor" until Robertson lost the ball, which created that chance for them.

That's incredibly harsh on Lovren. If the attacker moves that far in front of the front post you have to leave him at it. It's 0.0001% chance he's scoring from there, probably half that again giving it's Joselu.

Fair enough, mate. I’d have to see it again. But at the time it looked pretty bad.

But he's a grat character.

The first angle makes it look like Joselu has stolen a march on Lovren and it looks really close to a goal from this angle. I personally think the second angle shows Lovren was caught napping a little bit. The slip by Robertson I think has caught them slightly unaware and Joselu was quicker to react. The third angle shows the Alisson never really looked in trouble and seemed to recognize that it was going wide and perhaps shows that it was wider than the first angle suggested. A couple of defensive errors but Alisson had it covered, based on these clips Clive.

The trajectory of the ball shows there must have been another shooter not in the book depository.
