from the bench.

Part of this is just is wearing teams down and (usually) having so many options on the bench. Fresh player - especially those without great pace - are bound to excel against a tired defence

Gakpo needs to play more, he’s brilliant. Such a smart footballer and probably the best finisher in the squad.

Great balance and touch. Seems good with both feet.

Yeah he's the most intelligent player we have up front I reckon.

Love Cody and Djogo. Give Diaz a rest and start those 2 with Nunez against Bournemouth.

Nunez is the unluckiest player ever and that's coming from someone who isn't a fanboy.

 

Can't decide if that save was brilliance from Leno or a pure freak.

Just cancel the neg and then rep him.

Jota starting to become talismanic.

Superb stuff for the first goal, absolute warrior.

Don't do it, mate. Neg him again!

[Nelly-Szoboszlai]

Joe Gomez is definitely pinging one in from about 25 yards some time within the next 143 games. 

[TheBitch]

Quite a lot of our players look lethal when coming off the bench, but that's probably due to the fact that the starting XI have completely worn the opposition down, it doesn't matter who starts and who comes on, but those coming on often do the damage, and that's testament to Klopp, his team and their tactics.

 

It's no surprise we're always better second half, because the job we've done up to that point has worn the opposition down.

But we've been here before this season and more often than not come out ok in the end....

And so it came to pass.

 

Liverpool find a way.

Not great but I'll take it. Looking forward to hearing what @lebron thinks MacAllister has offered tonight, or all season apart from one goal. 

 

He’s definitely had better games, and at very least games where he’s been more influential. I just think he gives us something different with his passing. As with our previous number 6 I wish he had a bit more recovery pace, but he’s not afraid of receiving the ball under pressure, normally turns really well with it and plays mostly quick, progressive passes. 

 

He struggled tonight with finding quick outlets in front of him. i’m not blaming that solely on him though. With Harvey parked on the wing (our only real “between the lines” player), he didn’t really have many options to release those early passes. Thought he started the 2nd half better (as did Harvey when he started to get into those “half-spaces”), and finished strongly.

 

Glad to converse!

Mark chapman - huge United fan but the best presenter there is out there and it never influences his coverage of us. A good one.

Very much our calling card this season.

 

If (and I appreciate it is a big if) we can get to a point where we have pretty much a full squad come say end of Feb/beginning of March and we have managed to 'find a way' enough between now and then, we could be set for some end to the season.

[El Dangerous]

I haven’t been as impressed with a young fullback since Jon Flanno Flanagan. Big shoes to fill Connor.
