Hull (H), 3pm, 24/09/16 - Dead Tiger F**k Juice

[magicrat]

Hull were lucky to lose only 5-1

That's two dross sides we have battered in the space of 5 days, Exactly what we need to be doing, Played some very entertaining football today Liverpool and how often have we been able to say that for a couple of years. 

[lifetime fan]

Should be game of the day on sky too.

Benteke gets ET winner after the Chosen One had a 2 goal.  Fucking muppet

I never bother looking at the League table properly till 5/6 games in, pleasantly surprised. Would of bit your hand off for that at the start of the season with the run of games we've had.

 

What are them lot doing 4th though? Takes a bit of a shine of it.

I was expecting us to be around tenth at this stage after looking at the fixture list. Thought we'd lose to both Arsenal and Chelsea away, pick up something at Spurs and I didn't know what to think about the Leicester game.

 

This start has surpassed my expectations, the Burnley result is a massive kick in the balls though.

 

We're in a good place.

Until Woolster starts a Happy Bus to 80+ thread I am out.

[Paco]

Excellent first half.

 

Slightly tainted by conceding a very poor goal.

Me too please

[Russ Atmosphere]

Don't think he was prolific claiming crosses in the Bundesliga either.

 

Though that has to be offset by considering his age.

Whilst not fully understanding that, I wish him to get over that vertical line to snuggle up beside Neuer.

[Lario]

What's that website that shows full matches again?

 

Fulltvshows.com or some shit?

[Russ Atmosphere]

Fullmatchhighlights is one. No, lastmatchhighlight.

 

I am making this up.

[Rick Sanchez C-137]

I loved the quick response to their goal though. Too often we look extremely shakey after conceding.

[Preston Red]

No problem, it was a good one. Although the screen would occasionally go white as if a nuke had gone off.

Mine would buffer a little bit but nowhere near as bad as my Kodi box did.

[memyselfandpie]

That first half was a thing of beauty. I honestly cannot remember seeing the Red men so committed, energetic, mobile, inventive, supportive etc, etc. You name it, we did it in that first half. I would love to see the stats from that half alone, and also see what the average time was that we went without the ball. It couldn't have been in the minutes. Great display.

[Trumo]

That was about as routine as a fixture between these sides ought to be, and a big part of that was the tempo of our play. We swarmed all over Hull when we had the ball, and we swarmed all over them when we lost it. They couldn't do a thing to stem the tide.

 

Well worked goals for Lallana and Mane, a couple of penalties for Milner and another howitzer from Coutinho were exactly what our play merited, and we look a much better side when the intensity and intent is there. No dithering about with possession for possession's sake. We could have had at least 5 in the first half alone, and still maybe a couple more when we eased off the pace in the last 20 minutes.

 

That said, we still conceded the sort of goal that comes from players switching off at the inopportune moment. I don't think Hull had any other attempts on goal apart from that one and a late Snodgrass free kick that sailed well over the bar. Sending off or not, they were always going to sit back and hope to nick a goal from a set piece.

 

I was just thinking that if Steve Bruce was still in charge of Hull, they'd probably still have scored in exactly the same manner - probably within the last 10 minutes - but we'd have only been one goal to the good at the time. We'd have dominated the game without looking really threatening and they'd have sat back and played for a point. That tended to be the pattern against any side of his that came to Anfield, no matter who was managing Liverpool at the time. Thank fuck they've got that ex-Manc slapdick Phelan in charge then.

 

As a side note, Hull seem to collect Spurs midfielders the way Sunderland collect Man Utd rejects.

[AngryOfTuebrook]

There we go, three goal cushion restored.

Some prick was still holding an orange smoke canister when that goal went in.

 

I did chortle.

[AngryOfTuebrook]

That was a proper professional display. Midfielders and defenders were calm and controlled while the attacking players were just wonderful.

 

 

And we ruined the Manc slaphead's birthday.

[Grinch]

not too arsed about their goal.   Our defender got their first and then we had two almost closing down the shot.  A million miles away from the shambolic goals weve gave away in the past where we left players in oceans of space.

 

These things happen, we banged in five.  Great day at the office.

Felt sorry for that lad who was subbed after the red card, he was in tears.

Felt sorry for that lad who was subbed after the red card, he was in tears.

 

Probably because he also got subbed off against Arsenal last week in the same circumstances when Livermore got sent off for handballing a goal-bound effort.
