At least the players turned up this afternoon! Comfortable win in third gear. The most important thing is that Lucho's dad (and anyone else caught up in this kidnapping) is found safe and well.

[Reckoner]

We need to wake up

A satisfactory afternoon's work. Three goals, three points, clean sheet, some absolutely fapworthy attacking play, plenty of decent performances (Mac Allister being particularly excellent), no injuries, nice tributes to Paul McHugh, Bobby Charlton, Luis Diaz and (from the Forest fans) the 97.

 

The atmosphere was non-existent, but that's better than an angry or nervous atmosphere.

 

Onwards.

I bet there were more people in this match thread than at Henderson's last league match.

[Bobby Hundreds]

Stream I was watching, Salah gets dragged to the ground no Foul and Warnock says there's nothing in it. Ruined the result for me I'm fuming.

[deiseach]

On the basis that the length of the match thread is inversely proportional to how well the Reds are playing, I'm guessing Liverpool won this game 300-0.

That was shocking.

Warnock does my head in. My stream crashed at beginning of second half so I ended up watching a French stream which I found much more engaging.

Fucking hell been a tough 24 hrs - almost had to to talk to me tart and interact with the lad....

 

 

[Kevin D]

Not sure if it was because the clocks went back or that there was an overlap with the Manchester Derby, but it was one of the worst days for streams in a while.

Then the commentators on my stream made a comment about Salah going down a little easy in an incident later in the game. Absolute weapons.

Martin Tyler is a cunt.

In fairness to the lino he was unsighted*.

Steve Cooper is a strangely irritating bloke. Whenever an opponent gets the 'inspired' idea to make us attack the Kop in the first half, they always lose my respect - aside from the fact that, if they ever bothered to check, they ought to know that it's hardly Kryptonite to us - we usually win anyway - it's also a sure sign that the manager is desperate. It's but a short step to voodoo dolls and books of spells. And I don't mind a lower league side playing like that against us in a cup tie, but when you're supposed to be in the same league, show a bit more courage.

Its unbelievable, defenders can just wrap their arms around him and pull him back, never anything given. Actually, I think he won a foul after the 10th time it happened. So thats OK then.

[3 Stacks]

Couple things in this match, in terms of the midfield;

 

I would say one; the amount of defensive work Mac Allister is involved in when you think about the fact he isn't a natural lone holding player and that he isn't a physical specimen, is great. He's averaging 4 tackles + interceptions per match in the league. On top of the fact he is springing attacks with line breaking passes, he is doing a fine job.

 

Szoboszlai's runs on the outside on the right were so dangerous and important. It means there is a wide outlet for Salah and Trent can stay central.

 

A negative; with how involved Mac and Szobo were, Gravenberch was not involved. We'll see if he can impose himself against Premier League opposition.

[Bobby Hundreds]

Gravenberch has played very little football so he's probably just a bit goosed.

I think that decision might have had more to do with making Ali play with the sun in his eyes; not that it made any difference, like.

[gkmacca]

Trent is still acting a bit Beckham-like. He's not so brilliant at free kicks that he should demand to take every one of them, especially now Dom's in the side.

This you, @Code?

Always think he looks like Mark King.

As long as Salah doesnt take the free kicks I’m happy. He actually took one vs Forest, been a while since the last one I reckon. Has he ever scored from one? 
 

Anyway, good times, we’ve seen what Trent can do from a free kick, and I’m sure Szoboszlai can do it too. A few years ago when Salah and Henderson were lining up to take them it was the time to go for a piss.
