That’s why Klopp was complaining about him :wink:

Liverpool are now workmanlike and hard to beat but lacking the required craft. How much did they end up paying for keita when their game was crying out for a spark like coutinho
:lol: I wonder if you’ll get a bite.

TBH I’ve long thought that their team revolves around Firmino, but he had a real off night and looks like he needs a rest.

We missed Gini, Trent, Gomez, Henderson and our replacement for
Gomez (Lovren).
Not great but still only a point worse than a week ago.

We are lacking sparkle and have for a couple of weeks, nothing to do with one or two individuals playing badly.

:lol: You're lacking sparkle precisely because one or two individuals have gone slightly off their game, it doesn't take a lot at that level and it's now that squad depth is really tested. Spurs are in the same boat.

Besides, an away point is not the worst result in the World.

We have changed our style - it’s our best (I think) ever points tally after this number of games,so I shouldn’t say we are doing anything wrong, but Firmino upfront is the way we should set up IMO.

That helps Salah too.
So I am ‘blaming’ the system more than the players.

Him and backroom team. Even when we have been winning with the system I don't like it, but it's working . So I am happy to be wrong.

I wonder if Liverpool have gone too hard in the first half of the season, a fantastic start but at the same time have they got enough in the tank to get themselves over the line.

Then again if they win on Saturday, then a 'blip' of just two matches is not all that bad and the momentum can begin again.

It’s the same every year at this time, there’s a lot of matches, especially for those left in several cups, tiredness, injuries and suspensions are taking their toll and your squad depth gets severely tested. Leicester didn’t have a great squad but were incredibly lucky with injuries (and a few decisions here and there), however that’s not the norm. City definitely have the required depth and Liverpool and Spurs do not but the reality is that you need luck to get over the line, it’s a tough league.

If Liverpool are tired there is a problem. One game a week in Jan is perfect.

Another wrong decision goes Liverpool’s way. I wonder if Klopp will be praising the officials this week.

Firmino once again the orchestrator.

Gini was the best to me. But again an overall good team performance. It's great our play is so quick linesman can't keep up.

We would have probably beaten Leicester as there was a penalty for us which VAR would have given. Swings, roundabouts and all that.....

:lol: I actually don’t mind teams that are playing good football getting a bit of luck here and there, but I do it a bit hypocritical when the manager then complains about not getting every decision.

I ignore what they say, I take the bits about my own team (injury updates and performance opinion) but the rest is meaningless in my mind.

It gave me no joy to observe the pain on Klopp and the Liverpool players faces as they bottled yet another shot at glory last night. It’s the wonderful fans I feel sorry for.

You need to get back to trolling school, and re learn how to do it better.
Only a complete imbecile or fool would say the team top of the league have bottled something.
