Now call me a tactical genius but do teams (including ourselves ) not struggle more when midfielders are bearing down on goal with the ball at feet ? Rather than drinking it into space all the time for defenders to clear their lines . No way Jones starts ahead of Gravenberch don't get what he offers and that's not just down to a dismal performance today . Gravenberch has fallen out with Dutch manager I think he was at training all week just wonder what Jurgen was thinking . 

El Rojo didn't write that don't know what's wrong with my quoting and pasting

City didn’t appear anywhere near the same prospect without De Bruyne.

 

How many chances did they create from open play today? It can’t have been more than three, less if you include us giving them the ball 25 yards out.

 

Doku seems talented at dribbling, but had no final ball and a real player with that time, space and much of the ball should really have hurt us today.

I've said a few times that the difference between us and the blue mancs has been De Bruyne. Take him amd Rodri away and they're pretty even with the rest of the top 4 teams 

 

Doku is still very young, could turn into a major talent in a few years. Definitely looked dangerous today.

Overview: Klopp’s evolving 2.0 went toe to toe with the reigning English and European champions and industrial scale cheats and came away with a deserved point. Fuck all to choose between the teams, despite the far greater workload for our lads in the last fortnight and the 12.30 away. No coincidence that their only S American to travel was pretty shit.

Carra is showing his true BS colours. He speaks absolute shite all the time.

We just lack a top class general in the middle of the pitch. Szobo done it brilliantly when he dropped into the 6 role at wolves away. Would it be worth looking at him there again if there’s no one available in January.

Sturridge in the studio there looking like he’s just finished performing a set with 1990s R&B act Bell Biv DeVoe.

Fucks sake not Jota again....

 

Jürgen Klopp has confirmed Liverpool will need to check on the fitness of Alisson Becker and Diogo Jota following the 1-1 draw at Manchester City on Saturday.

 

The pair picked up knocks at Etihad Stadium that will require further assessment from the Reds’ medical team to determine the severity of them.

 

Alisson went down holding his leg in stoppage-time, but was able to continue. Jota, meanwhile, was forced from the field in the 54th minute.

 

Klopp told his post-match press conference: “The shadow on this game is obviously that Ali felt something and Diogo felt something – something we have to assess and then we will see.”

 

Expanding further on Alisson's fitness, the boss added: "I hope it’s not that serious, but I don't have the answer - no clue in the moment what it is.

 

"I spoke to him and he said he only felt [it] a little bit, but we have to wait for the scan."

It s a very good result, but basically, Trent gets it for us with a big moment. Performance wise, it wasnt anything different from what 99% of teams do against them. We created very little, had little control and had their finishing been better, they win.

[Jairzinho]

Pep really needs to see someone. He doesn't seem a well man. 

[LFC 6 Times]

Pep playing with his spit is fucking disgusting. Horrible man.

Exactly mate. It's a foul. 

He grabbed Alisson’s arm and dragged him down.

I’m not disagreeing with any of that

Pep does exercises naked on a pommel horse each morning. 

[Red74]

Results like that is what wins you leagues in May (or earlier if they get the points deducted soon)

The soft shite  that gets regularly given in goalkeepers favour, why are they even debating this shit?
