He ain't lying

Well van Dijk's made more mistakes tonight and 2 fuck ups in as many minutes at the start of the 2nd half but I dont see any 'van Dijk's defending has been shite.'

Matip>Baresi 

Been our best player by some distance

[El Rojo]

Sorry I didn’t dodge watching this tonight and just catch up on Matip’s highlights on YouTube tomorrow.

Yes, he is.

He'll do.

 

424. No way should our midfield be getting bossed against 10 men.

Until you see who's playing in it

[Torvald Utne]

It's not a pissing contest, mate. Everyone could have been better. You'd just expect your top goalscorer on the pitch to threaten the goal a bit, that's all.

If Firmino contributed, Jota wouldn't have to come so deep for the ball.  Having the world's most predictable midfield doesn't help anyone, of course.

[Daisy]

Klopp taking the piss here now 

[El Rojo]

We all dream of a team of Joel Matips.

It has.  I haven't got round to him yet.

[KMD7]

Matip doing a decent impression of Beckenbaur and Socrates tonight. 

 

[J-V]

Curtis Jones. Score you fucker.

[J-V]

Great defending Robertson...

[Jordy Brouwer]

Jones is coming on thank god.

bet you were typing that just as Robbo played the ball into no-mans land behind our midfield to give them a decent run at goal.

[Boss]

Can we get the League Cup crowd in for every league game? They're boss.

I know. You like to single out your whipping boys first.

[Jimmy Hills Chin]

Jones coming on for Milner

[suzy]

Come on Curtis!

About time. This game is made for him. 

[Bjornebye]

Ref stood in boss positions for the ball outside the box

if only they weren't so shit.  I'd have to direct my constructive criticism elsewhere

My eyesite is a bit shit. Misread that, but apt.

[Boss]

You can see why we're interested in Saka.

[Bjornebye]

Oh fuck get up Matip 

 

I worry about him as if he's Kanu
