Whole team is just weak as piss.

SlickRic · 02-01-2023 08:15PM

It's technically not a free.

But it's given every single week.

Yeah, on replay agreed.

Too soft

ShamoBuc · 02-01-2023 08:16PM

Konate should have been much stronger there.

noodler · 02-01-2023 08:17PM

We need to stop playing our fullbacks so high.

We can't afford it in the current system/personnel.

RedCardKid · 02-01-2023 08:17PM

Anyone who thinks that was a foul needs to get into SpecSavers asap tomorrow morning. Brentford player outran /outmuscled Konate ... simple as.

That's a goal and assist that Konate has tonight. He basically gave up there and went for the lazy option of tacking a tumble instead of holding firm.

citytillidie · 02-01-2023 08:17PM

Going by what fouls he has given if it was the other way it would have been a free kick to Brentford the ref is not reffing the teams to the same standard

Osmosis Jones · 02-01-2023 08:18PM

3 goals conceded, all immediately from players giving it away in bad areas

Nothing to do with our full backs there, That's all on Konate

Jarhead_Tendler · 02-01-2023 08:18PM

Got what we deserved from the whole game. There was an improvement 2nd half but not enough to warrant getting anything. Back to the drawing board again.

Fullbacks weren't the issue there.

Keita coughed up the ball in midfield really easily.

Our fullbacks are attacking fullbacks, when the ball is in midfield we need to be more careful with it or we get caught out.

cmac2009 · 02-01-2023 08:18PM

Diabolical attempt at a header back to the keeper. Like Konate but he's been terrible today.

martyos121 · 02-01-2023 08:20PM

This is a completely deserved defeat too, that’s the depressing thing. Brentford have outplayed us from the tenth minute onwards, and they’ve done it without their star player.

No amount of money spent in this window will save this season for us.

It's endemic though, turn and fire one ball over the top and it's always 1v1, always. It's where two of the goals came from.

Yeah, Konate was weak af but way too many 1v1s.

We need to start cutting our cloth accordingly. Still playing like a midfielder will be back there.

machiavellianme · 02-01-2023 08:21PM

If we don't improve our midfield ASAP, this garbage week in, week out, isnt going to improve. Top 4? More likely to end up in 7th and deservedly so.

awec · 02-01-2023 08:22PM

The only positive you can take from this game, and it's a very tenuous positive, is it surely highlights that the chequebook needs to come out in January and we need multiple players.

Gakpo is not going to make any difference to this.

Europa League is on the cards next year if we're lucky.

SuperTortoise · 02-01-2023 08:22PM

DM and CM need to be priority.

paulie21 · 02-01-2023 08:23PM

What's going on with Carvalho? 3 games in a row an unused sub. Curtis Jones even getting on ahead of him

I still believed before this game.

Not now. Not with the lack of fight, midfield or fit front men.

And not with our next three league fixtures.

awec · 02-01-2023 08:24PM

How was he free in the middle? Why are we not doing the basics of tracking back. It's unforgivable.

Allison coming off his line saves a 4th.

Osmosis Jones · 02-01-2023 08:24PM

Konate was brutal for the goal but you cant expect a defence to deal with this many 1v1s and 2v2s every week, same way Alisson can't keep bailing us out. Every goal came from someone losing the ball by being thoughtless in a vulnerable area.

The midfield needs to offer protection, ideally protection AND creation but right now I'd settle for one.

awec · 02-01-2023 08:25PM

An awful lot of fannying about around the edge of the box.

Someone please just shoot.

Charlie19 · 02-01-2023 08:25PM

Trent has just given up.

passatman86 · 02-01-2023 08:25PM

"down the pub in 30 years time"

I remember when Liverpool last won the league in 19/20

Liverpool fan here btw

yourdeadwright · 02-01-2023 08:25PM

This squad is done

Looked like a child in his past couple games imo, seemed very easily pushed out of the game. Maybe he's not entirely ready to play in an already struggling team.

The night we won the league, I said to my son “ I was your age when we last won the league, I hope you’re not my age before we win it again!” - god dammit I must have jinxed them 🤬🤬

brevity · 02-01-2023 08:29PM

Cant go ignoring the obvious and expect to get by.

Donut formation.
