The last time I didn’t watch this fixture live, we beat them easily in 2014. As a gift to you all, I’ll take the same approach on Sunday.

nope.  The game was decided when you looked at that midfield knowing that our first choice attackers are all stinking the place out.  If you don't think Mane, Firmino and Salah have been destroying our attacking play, then you're not watching.

We are top of the league you lunatic with Salah as the league’s top scorer.  They have bad games and they had one today but they weren’t playing badly until that clown stepped on the pitch.  His complete lack of effort, threat in behind and decision making has the complete opposite effect to Firmino.

 

The midfield was too negative but it was understandable considering both Henderson and Fabinho had played well there recently.  Klopp clearly feels awkward fucking Hendo off but that might change after today.  Keita basically cost us the Leicester game due to a small detail and in these games that’s what these cunts focus on.  Shaqiri should have been on for Firmino.

No bravery on the ball in the final 3rd at all. Does anyone know what book de gea was reading.

Like said above we keep putting in performances like this attacking wise city will walk the league. Attack needs overhaul in the summer.

I dont think mane did one thing right all afternoon

Keita has been on an upward trajectory, and I don't think many would argue that he has more potential than the likes of Wijnaldum and the other lad.  He's coming into form, play him.  More importantly, he can create chances, whereas the other two cannot.  He will run at players, where the other two are so pedestrian and predictable, even a division two side would have time to get organised and behind the ball.

I don't agree.  Firmino on an off day is brutal.  Sturridge is usually brutal, but who can remember the last time Firmino strung two decent performances together?

 

Firmino makes far more runs when we’re im position, to create space for himself, and not least his team mates. And when we loose the ball he is very often the difference between a counter attack to the opposition, and winning it back in dangerous areas.

Has any set of supporters ever felt so bad going to of the league?

We didn't deserve to win but not to lose either. Sturridge sub was weird. Keita was badly missed as at least he drives at teams and would have loved the open spaces afforded our players today. 

Not great but we need to get this lethargy out of our system especially going forward.

Very very frustrating but it's a point more than what we had and that's our hardest game let out of the way.

Fuck me, supporting us is hard work.

Yep.

 

It's easy to forget how far we've come, in the last year or so we've played some incredible football and on our day can beat anyone, we're in with a shout of the league for the first time in years so it's not worth getting wound up about too much. Until we root out the problem players though, the likes of Henderson who continually shits the bed against opponents of any real quality, and useless subs like Sturridge, we're going to encounetr the same problems. Same as in the CL final.

 

Sallah is starting to piss me off a bit in all honesty. It's not the goals/lack of goals more the aura around him, he's supposed to be our star player and they're supposed to bring confidence to you when you go into games like this, he just looks continually down in the dumps and furstrated and it's infectious. I'm seriouslly concerned someone has been in his ear and he'll be deciding he has to go to Barcelona to 'win prizes' at the end of the season. Let's face it, we all know how this story ends.
