My problem is mentally picturing him as a Liverpool manager. I can’t lie, it will be hard to get around that jovial to dim look, and of course the baldness. If he turns out to be actually any good, I’m sure I will get past it, but as soon as results take a dip, I will choose to be as superficial as a super model.

Good to see Endo back to at least near his best. Especially in the second half he was imperious. Szobozlai pretty much the complete opposite.

Well, that’s the wind out of their corrupt sails, hopefully.

I can only reiterate what everyone is saying. United are so bad that we should be ashamed just for not beating them with 4 or 5 goals, let alone not managing to win at all… Bournemouth have been completely dominant.

What pisses me off is easy five meter passes going astray all the fucking time.

Jones and Tsimikas understandably rusty from not having played much the last months, but Tsimikas seems tactically a bit dim as well. Kelleher has saved us at least two times this game, so I’ll not be overtly critical. The entire team misses easy passes and we don’t seem to have a plan to counter Atalanta’s press. 

Wtf, Tsimikas! And Kelleher.

Gakpo seems fired up. Excellent so far. That Darwin miss… almost Evertonian.

De Zerbi looks like a person who likes to wear far too tight trousers. That’s a no go right there. And I agree with Dave, in that he just doesn’ look like or feel like a Liverpool manager. He might be - or almost certainly is - a good to very good manager, but not for Liverpool.

Brentford had really dominated this. Mancs been very lucky to keep it goalless.

We should protest, but it will help fuck all.

It gives me no pleasure to say that I can’t see Gakpo having any future here. He’s the kind of player we would be smug about seeing in a Tottenham shirt. Scores the occasional goal, but just not good enough in general play. On top of that, today it felt like he couldn’t be bothered to run enough, certainly much less than Darwin, whose mistake surely was a result of being absolutely knackered.

Well, no need to see the film now, as that’s the entire thing in the trailer.

A HELL of a beating!

What? No Václav Havel or Milan Kundera?

The Gakman should do better there.

I'd go as far as saying we could bring Adrian on here. 

Hey, hey, hey, there is levity and there is madness. Don’t land on the latter.

Didn’t Raya move from his line before that last pen? With all the celebrations, they almost never have them retake the decisive pens…

As usual, he was among our best three. We’d probably have no chance today without him and Mac Allister.

We were by far the better team, and it’s as clear a penalty as you’ll ever see. 

Yeah, with VAR, I just let out a weak uh-uh when we scored and waited for the VAR check to be over before celebrating. It’s ridiculous and indeed shit.

Whisper it, but Tierney has been quite good (not absolutely horrible) in the last two games he’s reffed us.

Man of the match between Mac Allister, Van Dijk and Kelleher. 

Not sure how wise it is to kick the boards really, really hard when you’re just back from an injury in that very leg, Darwin…

Love how Darwin doesn’t even turn to see if it’s a goal, but just assumes so and runs away in celebration…
