Liverpool FC Premier League Champions 24/25 - Talk /Gossip/Rumours

I'm baffled by how low their xG was given some of their chances. They had 3 "big chances" apparently, 3 shots on target, 2 shots off the woodwork, 1 open goal put wide.

1.07 seems low

Semenyo's shot that hit the post in the first half was from an acute angle and on his left foot. if he had scored it would have been very impressive (xG 0.033). Bournemouth's xG total for the first half was 0.18. In contrast Diaz (x2), Szoboszlai (x2), Mac Allister, Alexander-Arnold and Salah all had higher rated chances. Liverpool's xG total for the first half was 1.95, of which 0.78 was the penalty.

Bournemouth's reaction in the second half was expected, we knew that they were going to come at us. They hit the post with a shot from distance from Tavernier (xG 0.028) and the bounce took the ball to Kluivert which was his open goal chance (xG 0.485). The only shot that they had which had a better xG rating was by Semenyo early in the second half (xG 0.52) which Alisson reacted sharply to.

It would have been extremely unlucky to concede a goal to either of the shots that hit the woodwork.

xg will be massive for a penalty is it .8 I think explains liverpools higher amount

My god Cheaty are a mess

Good enough for them but this Arsenal team really wind me up. Horrible shower.

Cmon Cheaty..stick it to them for St Bridget

Mod Edit: Warning issued

This city team might be rubbish can we have enough of these predictions post if Liverpool do this or that . This league ain’t going to be won in February there’s still a huge chunk of season to come no matter how well we are placed .

City could still go and win 10 plus games in a row.

Will you come up for some air.

If it wasn't for the 5th spot this year I'd say City in serious bother for CL

This City team just isn't very good at the moment. They seem so lost, like we did in 22/23 and one player being out is not the problem for them. Giving Pep another 2 years when it seems like the players they have currently are a little leggy for the way he wants to play so will need an overhaul to compete again. Haaland for 9 years when he does very little in the match is a luxury you cannot afford unless you dominate.

Some result. Those young players will be full of confidence after scoring.

This lasted well.

We need to beat Everton now to maintain our advantage. Definitely doable.

I didn't see that result coming at all . Will city rebuild oŕ will the 100's of charges be proven and Pep takes off ?

Next 5 PL

Arsenal ———- Liverpool

Leicester A ———— Everton A

W.H H ———— Wolves H

Forest A ———— City A

Man U A ———— Newcastle H

Chelsea H ———- Southampton H

Our game in hand is a bonus we hopefully cash in, an important blow to land

That's how he always plays. He hangs about on the shoulder of the central defender and peels away to the far post around the 6 yard box. He offers nothing beyond scoring goals.

Yes, Everton in 10 days
