    Robertson fit for Wednesday?

    yes as per the reports, just precautionary today.

    The front three are no longer "talking" to one another, it'll probably fix itself but nonetheless it's a bit concerning.

    What you mean here Harry ?

    As in not clicking or have fallen out ?

    I noticed Mane seemed to be walking around the pitch on his own after the game. It looked weird and my first thought was - is something wrong ?

    The thing about it is that this all should remind you of how amazing and unreal the run we experienced was.
    Can't underestimate the progress under Klopp.

    First year, came in Oct 2015, after the summer transfer window, got to both the League Cup and EL finals. Finished 8th in the league.
    We all know the squad back then and the rebuild required.

    Second year. Matip, Mane, Wijnaldum in. Skrtel, Ibe, Allen, Benteke and Balotelli out.
    Finished 4th in the league.

    Third year. Salah, Robertson, Ox and VVD in. Lucas, Sakho and Coutihno out.
    Finished 4th in the league and lost the CL final.

    Fourth year. Naby, Fabinho and Allison in. Can and Solanke out.
    Finsihed 2nd in the league with 97pts, and won the CL.

    Fifth year. Minamino in. Sturridge, Moreno, Ings and Mignolet out.
    Wins UEFA Super Cup, wins FIFA World Club Cup, wins the PL at a stroll.

    I think Klopp knows that the teams needs an extra big game player, esp upfront, and I expect a big signing to lift everyone again for next year. Upwards and onwards.

    Worried about Wednesday now.

    Horrible performance today. Midfield was chronic. Fabinho probably had his worst performance ever for us. Gini was poor and missing and Ox faded. The defence was actually ok I think. Couple of chances they had came from breaks from midfield.

    Firmino has lost form at completely the wrong time and so has Trent.

    Trent and the rest of the midfield are missing Henderson so much.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 999 ✭✭✭NewRed2


    Good result, not such a god performance. Milner was excellent. I usually hae only good things to say about Gomez but he wasn't so hot today. I also said I had full confidence in Adrian and I still do but he looked very nervy today, hopefully it was just a matter of him getting that first game back under his belt.
    We'll be champions soon. Wonderful to be able to say that. I love this team and it's manager.
    I will say this though, we'll be going out to Atleti midweek if we play like we did today. Massive improvment needed for that game and I think we'll find it, I think we'll be right up for the Atleti game and we'll need to be. Just need the front 3 to start clicking again and to stop forcing things so much. Salah and Bobby today looked like they were trying to force things too much. And Gomez and Trent could hardly play that poorly again.

    I was cautious about today, felt a bad result would really effect them,

    I dont laugh at anyone who worries, lots of us on here have waited 30 years you can forgive the hesitation to celebrate just yet

    I'm as pessimistic as anyone when it comes to footbal. We could be playing the worst team in the world and i'd be fearful of what could go wrong rather than how it could go right. It's just nerves.

    But i couldn't keep a straight face if i were to tell someone the title race is still not over.

    We have a record lead at the top of the table, nobody has been that far ahead before. Even if City win their two games in hand, i don't think anyone had been nineteen points clear before this season had started.

    That lead took us what, about five or six months to build? There is no way Man City are going to be able to pull that record lead back over their final eleven games and two months of the season to go.

    We are the Champions, it's just a matter of when now and not if.

    Milner has to start for me on Wednesday in midfield. Need calm heads on Wednesday and he can do that job for us.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 38,227 ✭✭✭✭Guy:Incognito


    Ffs some of you seem to want to find problems.

    To be fair, only for Milner being on the ball, that game could have easily been 2-2.

    Matters **** all if it was 100 chances to 2 and they only touched the ball twoce all game. You get the points based on the goals scored and conceded, and that game was closer than it should be.

    Another fairly poor performance. Mane & Salah took their goals well but we coughed up easy chances; a good team would have scored at least twice against us today, we are suddenly really poor to the second ball, our midfield is pretty dire and our buildup play is glacial slow for large chunks of the game.



    Can't say I'm holding out much hope for United, Arsenal & Burnley to beat City.


    I think United will bet them. Puts pressure on for Arsenal game.

    9 draws will do it lads....


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,264 ✭✭✭ebbsy


    Liverpool to score early on Wednesday and win 4-0.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,993 ✭✭✭Potential Underachiever


    Delighted to get the win.

    Performance wise, it was dodgy, very dodgy, shaky at the back, nothing in midfield and the front 3 not really clicking.

    Fabinho and Firmino in particular stank the place out.

    On current form, I can't see us beating Atletico.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 4,144 ✭✭✭DVDM93


    100 Premier League games.
    70 Premier League goals.

    Mohamed Salah.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,993 ✭✭✭Potential Underachiever


    Also, I cringed a bit when I saw Klopp taunting the linesman, no need for that.

    No team having a double digit number of draws should be considered great.





    :D

    Nervy win but 3 points get in!!!

    presumably a draw at the Eitiad will be like a win, 2 wins and a draw there. I just want it to end so I can gloat without the fear of any consequences.

    Less than that. Draw with City and they can only get 88.

    Why is it a mish mash? Surely pick the 100 game mark and the goals each has scored at that point?

    Or pick 70 goals and the amount of games is took to get there.
